My husband and I go to Reno every year for our anniversary. Famous Dave's has always been one of our lunch spots during our visit and use to be all 5 stars. I don't know if they have a new owner or manager but this year everything was different. It was still good just not excellent. My husband had the pulled pork ( he did not like this year) hot link, macaroni and cheese and beans. Includes corn muffin. I had the chicken tenders, hot link , macaroni and cheese, beans...
March 2025
I would rate 5 stars but when I asked if the hot link was a real hot link or a smoked sausage , I was assured it was a real hot link. Then I got it and it turned out to be a smoked sausage. 🤦🏿‍♂️
February 2025
Food was good but not to the expectations I had. Service could have been more attentive with drinks and refills, especially given there were only 10-12 people in the restaurant including myself.
February 2025
