We visited after the rush on a Saturday night. Still, ten minutes after being seated, no one had taken our drink order or given us any service. The order was taken only after i went to the hostess. The drinks were slow in arriving and then waited a long time to place our food order. When the food came, it was good.

Stopped here based on a Famous Dave's email honoring Veterans for two days. Restaurant Manager spent the entire 70 minutes we waited explaining to all new customers the second day of honoring Veterans was a Corporate program but this local location was going to honor the discount but had not planned on the staff support required.
Once we got seated it was a wonderful experience. Our server Derzee was fast & efficient. He kept a smile on his face even though he was running in circles keeping all of his customers happy. Food arrived hot, fresh, and made to order.

Thanks for honoring those who served for both days!

Food was great! Server was awful! Took an hour to get my drink from bar (shoulda walked over there myself, lol) and she kept forgetting what we ordered, who ordered what ... I even told one of the managers, nada ...
The friends that were with us were so excited to see a Famous Dave's because it was one of their most FAV places EVER (used to be one near us in southern Chesterfield, VA) however, they said they had never had a poor experience as this one!

Bbq was great, server was very good, but it did not feel clean. The table was sticky, the bottles of sauce needed to be wiped off and the floor needed vacuuming. Our friends recommended it. Had it been clean, we would have returned already.

Stop for lunch during business trip. Ate here several weeks ago and thought it was good enough to stop again.
This time however I was very disappointed. The one piece chicken meal ordered by my business associate was a very small portion. The mashed potatoes he ordered were salty.
I had some Texas beef brisket bbq and some pulled pork bbq. I also found the meats to be too salty- especially the brisket. The only thing I enjoyed was the Cole slaw and the cornbread muffin.
For $13 plus tip I didn’t feel I got my money’s worth. Glad I’m on an expense account so I will be reimbursed.
