What People Are Saying About Famous Dave's

In Short – Famous Dave's recipes began as a hobby for Dave Anderson, who opened his first 'cue shack in Hayward, Wisc., in 1994. Now a national phenomenon, the restaurants cater to diners who dig into finger-licking-tasty meat. The menu features chopped pork, Texas brisket, baby back ribs and fire-kissed chicken slathered with signature sauces like vinegary Georgia Mustard. Entrees, some of which arrive atop a garbage can lid, come with corn on the cob, drunken apples, baked beans or slaw.

Good food, so-so atmosphere

I first found Famous Dave's in the Twin Cities a few years ago. This one has the great BBQ, but lacks the ambience of the others. Rib Tips is my meal of chi=oice, which is a good value for the relatively low price. Sure, some of the pieces are cooked a little well-done, but that's the idea with BBQ - It's the sauce that makes the meal, and the selection of sauces on the table will meet most everyone's idea of BBQ. If you want the real FD experience, go to Minneapolis.
- Pros: sauces, value, not crowded
- Cons: no live music
