    The servers are so quick and polite. I would say the food is a little too salty and dry for my taste. We liked our drinks though :)

    Great food, very delicious! The restaurant looks spacious and makes you feel like you're at a bbq place! Hostess is very nice and friendly. Most Servers are nice

    Bone fragment in the "pulled pork", which is not supposed to have bones in it. According to the restaurant this is perfectly acceptable.

    DO NOT GO HERE for your own safety and well-being! Notice how this place has more 1 star reviews than any other number? I'm not exaggerating. Take a minute to read this review and save yourself some anguish. My wife and I went here and the food was mostly bad. I got ribs which were very tough and my wife got chicken which was rubbery. The service was not bad but we couldn't get the waiters attention for a refill on drinks. I am not a complainer and I've worked in restaurants for many years so I didn't complain. That night I felt sick and my wife ended up having an "evacuation" out both ends... We wondered and suspected it was the food we had there. Fast forward to a few weeks ago my mother in law was in town and took our daughter there to eat. We warned her about our experience but she has enjoyed Famous Daves from her neck of the woods so she gave it a shot. BIG MISTAKE She got pulled pork (which is supposed to be boneless meat), right? She bit into a piece which had a small piece of bone shard in it that BROKE her TOOTH. She reported it right away to her waiter and the store manager, showing them the bone. Their response? "MeAt hAz BOneS iN iT!" They took no responsibility. Really? If you had a chicken nugget and choked on a piece of bone, would McDonalds say "Meat has bones! Sorry not sorry!" Pulled pork is not supposed to have small pieces of bone in it. Nobody would reasonably expect that. Adding insult to literal injury, they didn't even comp her meal. She came home in pain and explained the situation. We contacted both the restaurant and their insurance and they again said "meat has bones" and did not take responsibility. IN FACT their insurance said once the waiter drops the food off they are NOT responsible for anything that follows. So if they had left broken glass or poison in your food, they're not responsible!!! It's unreal. PS: I sent two emails to the store manager Damien Allgood and got no reply. The employees there have no way for me to contact anyone with any authority. PPS: I'm not kidding, but my mother in law got sick that night with the same symptoms! So if you want ok to bad tasting food that can injure you and make you sick with horrible customer service, this place is for you. Here's a picture of the bone fragment.

    I enjoy it here. The service is always friendly and the food (depending on that you get) is good. It's certainly not the best BBQ that I've ever had, but it is good. My family and I always get the feast platters whenever we come here, and it feeds us all really well. The brisket here is SO tasty, as is their bread pudding. I'm not crazy about their macaroni & cheese, though. Other than that, great experience!

I think my turkey dish probably weighed five pounds. It was very tasty and I could see how delicious it would have been over mashed potatoes. My husband's Las Vegas potato was also very good. Super flavorful. I also appreciated all the syrup options set up beside the soda dispenser. That was an unexpected bonus. Staff were friendly, clean place. We'll definitely be back. I think chili on a baked potato would hit the spot on a cold day.

So I think in talking to most of my friends I got a good view on the food, and presentation. I had a starter of Totchos, and the Beef Dipper for my entrée. Both were excellent, I shared my Totchos. These are tater tot nachos, they were excellent, normally I don't like cheese sauce on Nachos, but given the consistency and flavor of this sauce (house made, I'm guessing. Not canned) They were excellent. The Beef Dipper and Au Jus, also top notch! Generally in a French dip, there is a lot of fatty pieces, this was not that. Also at my table was the Chile Verde bowl, this one has a kick... but my friend having it really enjoyed it. The fish and chips was great, smelled fresh. Lets talk about the sides. Choice of Fries (appeared to be battered fries, always a favorite of mine.) Tots, or house made potato chips. I had the Potato Chips with mine, these were excellent, crisp and tender on the inside. The Athena (Lamb Burger) got rave reviews from one at the table The Service: Because we were in a large group they advised us they were going to be taking our orders as we came in so not to overwhelm the kitchen staff. Excellent communication throughout service given that we were a large group. I talked to one of the Owners, Laurie, I could tell she had a huge sense of pride in the place. Very friendly! The Restaurant: Great atmosphere, Fun artwork, best of all, VERY Clean, nothing sticky or no grease buildup on any surface. The glass ware on the wall behind the bar as all polished. In the bar area they stack their silver, tableware, condiments etc. in a cute little cozy box on the table, with the main dining area setup as a diner with the traditional paper napkin and silverware. For a diner motif to have shined silver and glassware is a nice touch! Summary: Eat here! The prices are reasonable, the food is excellent, when I looked at the menu online I was a little put off by no actual entrée's on the dinner menu, however the in house experience made up for that, it's a pub food vibe and they are doing it well!

Yes, you heard me right. If you like blood sausage this is right up your alley. Both of the pork dishes (stir fry and blood sauce) were a little too salty for me personally, but tasty otherwise. The lumpia was good and we had a side of rice and pancit. The pancit was just okay for me. The woman who helped us was awesome and very patient with us.
