Delicious home cooked taste to all their food. It is the type of place you would imagine going to down south for some ol' fashioned "Soul Food!" Our service was spectacular. There was a bit of a wait initially to get a table due to them being very busy, but you know it is a good place to eat when there are a lot of customers! :)
First timer yesterday. We got the Feast for two (carry out). & HOLY HEAVEN OF MEAT! This place is doing it right, very good food. Super impressed & the pricing wasn't even bad. Also the girl checking us out in the back had awesome customer service! Thanks for making my first experience great!
I was in Grand Rapids for a corporate event. After the team building dinner sat around at another restaurant, waiting for not just food, but drinks as well, I decided to head over to Famous Dave's. Within minutes, I was not only seated, but had a frosty adult beverage in front of me. The waitress made certain that I was attended to. The food was excellent.
We were in Grandville late midweek and stopped in for a late dinner. The Tuesday special was $10.00 off a feast for twjo, so we took a chance and it was delicious!! We had leftovers to take home. I had their on tap root beer, which was rich and frothy. The ribs were tender and the meat came off the bones easily. The baked beans were a touch spicy with chunks of well seasoned pork. The service was quick and the staff were friendly and unobtrusive. A nice evening out.
Everything was hot and taste fresh! The staff was super friendly with great hospitality.
I was pleasantly surprised when I visited Famous Dave's. I had been here before (SEVERAL years ago) and was not at all impressed with the food. This visit was quite different. The brisket was tender with loads of flavor. The baked beans were great! Even though our server was new and still in training, she never failed to check on us. Even the trainer stopped by to ask our opinion of the new persons service. All in all we enjoyed our visit and our food. We will return to try out other menu items.
Fast, friendly service. Waitress has been there about a month. Very attentive. I had the pork stuffed baked potato - very delicious. My friend always has the catfish fingers. Plenty of food. Corn muffins were moist and crumbly. A great place to stop.
This place has amazing food. The Sampler Platter was great along with the Cajun Chicken sandwich although I will say that the sandwich wasn't as spicy as expected but still really good. Our server was great also. I also had the long island Ice tea drink which was good but could be a touch sweeter. Next time I wanna try the Hot fudge Kahlua brownie. Looking forward to going back.
Excellent food and pretty good service. Only negative point I can point out was that it was FRIGID in there! Gotta turn up the thermostat, it's mid november. And the seating at the tables could use a little padding. My bony butt was sore upon leaving. But the rib tips, collards, wings, and brisket were great!!
Had a good time here, for lunch bill was a little pricey but that comes from paying 2.50 for a soda. The brisket sandwich was good as were the fries. The mac and cheese had the texture of mush and I would not order it.
Staff was friendly and the restaurant looked pretty clean.
I hadn't been to a famous Dave's in about 8 years (the one nearby me closed down), so I was glad they're a bit better than they used to be.
We’ve been going here for years, everything on the menu is a good choice. The rib tips are our favorite though, absolutely excellent every time. The staff has always been good to us. It’s usually crowded when we go here, to me that says they’re doing something right. There’s ample seating but it’s not plush, it’s hard, but that goes with the theme. The inside is decorated with antique automotive memorabilia and accessories. Which is very unique and interesting to look at, we’ll never stop going here, it’s a staple! ... 👍🏼👍🏼
OMG the drinks the food the service Awesome! Cant wait to go back
The food here is generally very good. My only reason for not giving 5 stars is that it is hit or miss on their ribs. Sometimes they're dried out (to the bone, hahaha) and chewy, other times they are spot on and perfectly done. I understand the process to make amazing ribs can take a long time, and time is not something they have, even in a sit-down restaurant environment.
Overall, the staff is always friendly and the food is typically better than average. Especially their brisket. They have that down perfectly!
This is one of our go-to places when we want barbecue. If there's a wait, it's never very long. The service is excellent, without any problems. The food always comes way we want it, hot and tasty!
My wife had the brisket plate. I had the rib tips and brisket combo. We had more than enough to take home for a snack later on in the evening.
