    3 Meat Lunch Combo
    Richard D.

    First time dining here in probably 2 years. Man was it delicious! We usually go to Molasses in Midland but decided to stick closer to home and give Dave's a shot since it had been so long and boy, were we glad we did! Everything was on point and at a competitive price when it comes to other BBQ places. Our waitress Jennifer H. was awesome, very personable and attentive our entire visit. She even gave our 3 kids little toys to take home. We'll be back for sure!

    BBQ Chicken and jalapeño cheddar sausage

    Naturally when you think of BBQ you think of Michigan. But let me tell you it surprised me with the quality. I would say they lean a little more toward the Kansas City style than a Texas or Southern Carolina style. I didn't get the brisket but if I came back that would be top of my list to try. Everything had great flavor. The salad was a good way to start and everything tasted fresh. For the meal I got the BBQ chicken, St. Louis ribs and the jalapeño cheddar sausage. The chicken was incredibly flavorful and would be a sin to add anything to it. The ribs fell off the bone had had a lot of flavor. I'm not a huge fan of St. Louis style ribs so they left a little to be desired but is more for personal reasons. The sausage was good and had a great snap so it was cooked perfect. The staff is super friendly and everything came out so quick and hot. It is a stereotypical BBQ joint so nothing of not in terms of the ambiance but a fun place to go with your family.

    Today our group received our pre-ordered meals from a week ago. Our order was incomplete and cold, even after asking for assurances that the order was correct. We had to make a second trip to retrieve the left over food. Customer service was not very helpful either. When dealing with groups, being accurate and on time is very important. Sadly, you all missed the mark with barely acknowledging or apologizing for your mistakes. I will not return or advise anyone to return.

    Very friendly staff as we walked in and our server. We ordered burnt ends which were oh so yummy! Unfortunately it was disappointing because our meal came out before the rest of our group so we had to wait a bit for everyone to get their food. Other than that it was yummy.

    Haven't been to one of these since they closed the one in Rochester. Well hello Sagnasty Everything was as expected, Famous Dave's never disappoints. Still can't believe they closed the one by our house...bummer Love the cornbread, the sauces. Texas pit, has a little smoke flavor to it, sweet and zesty as the name says, which is one of my favorites with the rich and sassy and the devil's spit. Leaves a little bit of heat Love the pickles and the decor. Some say tacky i say sweeeeeet Service was also good and the place was clean

    The service is horrible. And the takeout service is awful. And they don't pick up the phone to take orders. So good luck her.

    A true gem in Old Town Saginaw…read more Lonnie's creations are purely from the heart - with a passion for fresh food and creativity, her recipes are divine. You can taste her passion on a plate. She supports local, offers discounts to her friends in the industry, and is a huge advocate for local non-profits. Tonight we attended Grateful Pasta Night, where some of the proceeds benefited the CAN Council. Lonnie and her staff are just the friendliest people who truly care about your experience and your love for their food. With great conversation and an intimate dining area, you'll be treated like family the moment you walk in. Go support local. Don't forget to grab a bottle of her wine to go, you'll love it!

    Hands down the best restaurant in Saginaw. The food was…read moreabsolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and was extremely flavorful! The mimosa were delicious and the perfect mixture of champagne and juice. The service was top notch. Our waitress made sure to check on us multiple times during our meal. The live music was a very nice touch. The owner Lonnie was the sweetest. Being from California it's nice to meet someone else who is from California. She gave us some restaurant recommendations to try. And every Wednesday the restaurants profits gets donated to non profit organizations. Make sure to stop by the restaurant. Even if it's a little out of your way it's completely worth it.
