    Brisket and BBQ chicken with pineapple spears lunch special
    Eddie C.

    This was not my place of choice but the relatives picked this place prior to their son's graduation. We were seated quickly as it was 1:30pm No negatives on the people that served as she/they were attentive. I ordered off the lunch special that had brisket and a half barbecue white meat chicken and a pineapple spear. Both meats were pretty average and the pineapple spear which is something different to try and was okay. My wife had a chicken sandwich, and she mentioned that the chicken seemed to be reheated to the point it wasn't that flavorful. My son also mentioned his chicken sandwich wasn't appeasing to him either. Being from San Diego, there's a lot of mom and pops great barbecue places that made famous Dave's meal today not stand out and not even in the same league. Their restaurant at this time was very quiet and only a couple of diners were present.

    We were feeling hungry on our way back from AZ and we were glad to see a Famous Dave's considering the one near me closed. We arrived around noon, and it got fairly packed quickly. There's an industrial rustic farmer vibe inside. Lots of seating. What was cool was that we ordered the three meat meal, and thought it was going to be the dinner price, but the lunch price was much less! It was a great way to share foods amongst us and to try different meats. The plate automatically includes a cornbread, which is not on the menu! They serve Pepsi products. Food was good and BBQ sauce was delicious. Different tangy and spice flavors. Food came out quickly too.

    Dry Mac N Cheese

    As a person that travels a lot, I have eaten at a lot of Famous Dave's. Despite there only being a few people at booths, it took forever for the waitress to even come to my table. So much so that the Hostess eventually came over and took my drink order and brought it to me. I ordered 6 bones of ribs with Mac N Cheese and fries for sides. The ribs were terrible, loaded with fat and bone chips. I'm pretty sure these were boiled and just coated with sauce, and absolutely loaded with pepper. Mac n Cheese was very dry. Wedge fries were undercooked and cold. Waitress was inattentive for the entire visit. This was hands down, the worst experience I've ever had at any Famous Dave's location. I do not recommend it, and I will not return to this location.

    I chose Famous Dave's for our family meal on my birthday. As suspected it was a great time! We ordered an appetizer before the All American Feast; as per usual we had our share of leftovers to take home! The brisket was excellent, as was the Peach Lemonade.

    We for the feast for 2 and you get a lot for your money here. We couldn't finish it, but we sure tried. Our waitress was Ashley and she was amazing. Best waitress we've ever had. The place was nice and clean an always.

    I was really excited for some good southern BBQ since I live in the northeast and people are always talking about how good it is down here. I thought Dave's was ok but I didn't find the food anything special. It was decent and I'd give it a 3.5 if I could but I wasn't like omg this really is amazing. We got the bbq sampler to try a few different things. The ribs, beans and potatoes were my fave.

    Great atmosphere. Service was great and the food was tasty. They have several sauces on the table that are worth a try. My meat portion was a bit on the small side for $14. But it was all good. The the potato salad and not the coleslaw. See our YouTube channel Coolest Life.

    Texas Beef Brisket
    Robert Z.

    Visited 1/8//2024 I've been to several Famous Daves BBQ over the years but I must say the Yuma Store is the best one I've ever visited. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Lots of parking. Nice Clean restrooms. Food was fresh and tender. We ordered The Famous Feast For Two. Comes with three Meats. We went for the Ribs and Double Orders of The Tender, Juicy Brisket. The sides we asked for were Mac & Cheese, Wilber Beans, Steak Fries, Sweet Cornbread, and Corn on The Cob. All comes on a big Platter Family Style. Everything was with Sauce on the side. Everything was tasty but the Star was The Texas Beef Brisket. Super Juicy and Tender. Fantastic Flavor. The Yuma Famous Daves is a winner.

    We continue to love Famous Dave's BBQ. Servers are friendly Dining room and bar areas are clean. Trying some different menu items. We really enjoy their traditional chicken wings with the sweet and sassy BBQ sauce. Cheddar potato soup with muffin was delicious. Side salad fresh and flavorful.

    Middle of the road flavors; unfortunately the only real known place in Yuma for bbq. It can range from eerily quiet to obnoxiously loud.

My girlfriend was supposed to have her car serviced at the dealership today. A wrench was thrown in the works, so the three of us met for breakfast. My boyfriend and I had already had breakfast, so we ordered off the lunch menu. I had a fried chicken sandwich, he had the chicken Caesar wrap. GF got the churro French toast breakfast plate with poached eggs and bacon. The waitress (Caitlin?) didn't pay much attention to our table. When we got our food, the fried chicken breast in the sandwich was lukewarm and she didn't ask about any sauce (ranch, etc) for the onion rings. The lady had to ask for the poached eggs and bacon. Also, she ordered an iced mocha with oat milk and caramel. Correct me if I'm wrong, but nowhere on the menu did it say that oat milk is an additional cost. Caramel was an additional cost. For a puny little iced coffee it ended up being $10. No refills. And we had to ask for ranch. She filled up my boyfriend's water glass and not mine. If it's empty, fill it. It's a hundred and something outside, please make sure all your guests are hydrated. The bill was $70. The lunches were extremely overpriced for what we got, to be honest. I know that prices have gone up and that inflation is a thing. I get that, I really do. The chicken sandwich was definitely not worth $15 and although the onion rings were good (and I'm thankful we weren't charged extra for them), it was still a letdown. This was akin to a $12 combo meal at a fast food joint. The first time I was here was a couple months ago. I had ordered the Denver omelette and when the waitress came out, she brought the wrong omelette ,(the three meat) out and didn't even try to correct her mistake even AFTER I had said it was wrong. That waitress was also inattentive and ignored us for the majority of our meal. We don't eat out a whole lot so it's a treat when we do. Less of a treat to receive subpar, overpriced food and subpar service. Sorry.

This time we both got the Hawaiian BBQ Beef, and THIS TIME we received a little container of teriyaki sauce along with their hot and soy sauces. The hubs like his hot sauce, but I don't need it - or the soy sauce. All I cared about was the teriyaki sauce and I was happy. In reading my previous review, I noticed: .I mentioned lettuce under the serving of meat - honestly, I think it's cabbage. I realize there's a difference. Really I do. :) .I see that the hubs liked his beef more than the chicken I ordered. He did feel like he liked his beef better this time than last time (was it mood, was it prepared better, or maybe we timed our food order better? who knows) .Last review, he did not like the mac salad. He said this time it was 'good' (he's not really a man of many words, but last time he said it had a fishy taste - so I'll take 'good' over that). .We had the same cashier we had last time. And, again, I thought he was terrific. SO glad we went back. Next time I'll tell them they can hold onto their soy/hot sauces and give me an extra teriyaki instead. I may even try the chicken again. But honestly, the beef was so good that I might not venture away from it. The place was clean, tables cleared. I'm bumping this up to 5 stars. Please realize that's compared to other fast-food style restaurants, please. We'll definitely be back. I like having something like this so close to the movie theater. As always, thank you for reading my review. I know the Yelp folks appreciate it, too!
