Famous Dave's barbecue is a very nice clean pretty place. The food was excellent so tasteful. It is a little expensive, but it is worth it. If you are a eater, the simpler is great. I think it was enough for myself and my husband to eat but we thought it was not going to be a lot but it was he decided to order the ribs also so much Food But worth it. I totally recommend this place. read more

Great food and great staff, it's a bit loud there but it's a nice place to spend with a group of friends or family.

I recently visited the Famous Dave's Restaurant in Doral Florida and they didn't disappoint. The food as always was well prepared and my flavored drink was mixed perfectly. But what is really driving this review is my very attentive waiter Daniel. Although he was a new employee learning the business his effort and dedication was appreciated and I thought his service deserved mention with a 5 Star Review. read more

This place has been here forever! You can tell it has stand the test of time. A no-frills barbecue joint with a lot of Venezuelan inspiration. They have huge combination platters for a great price, and I love their extensive selection of desserts. The service is great and food is served very quickly. read more

We went for burgers at famous Dave's and even got one for our service dog Jasper. Jasper was a hit he ate his burger with broccoli. Our waitress Krytzel was just wonderful. She is sweet and friendly and very precise with the order and loved Jasper. A very doggie friendly restaurant. Food was delicious. We had the burgers, sweet tea and banana pudding it's huge and delicious. I forgot to take pictures. read more

Service was excellent. The facility is a very cool eating establishment. Ribs were very good. Beef Brisket is very fatty and cut too thick. Steak fries were very average. They didn't have any corn. They said they ran out. Coleslaw was good but nothing out of the ordinary. Baked beans is very tasty but be warned they are spicy. We ordered pork rinds for an appetizer. It was beyond terrible . They were not crunchy and full of fat. (See picture). I might try this place again but I wouldn't go out of my way. read more

The drinks are cheap! The food is well priced and the portions are perfect! Inside is clean and cool, dark and cozy, a great place to have lunch or dinner, or down some well priced beers! The service is attentive and friendly and will provide recommendations if you're new. I've had just about all the proteins they have to offer and I must say, the ribs are the way to go! Flavorful, filling and worth the experience as far as chain restaurants go. read more

I'd eaten here once before back in 2016 or 2017, and it seemed decent at the time. Returned this week, and wasn't at all impressed. The brisket arrived lukewarm and lacking in flavor, and the baked potato soup was watery and short on potato. The only saving grace was the jalapeño cheddar sausage, which was solid. Save your money--go to a local place like Shorty's or Shiver's. read more

Famous Dave's has been our go to dinner spot lately and they never disappoint! Our favorite is the chicharron appetizer with lemon ..... they have so many different options. If your not in the mood for bbq they have other options as well. I always end up ordering the Baby Back Ribs with the brisket. Hands down so juicy and delicious. read more

First time at a Famous Dave's and went because my niece who was visiting us in Tampa suggested it. The chicken was tender and flavorful, the sauce they give you was very tasty. I got the light mild and it was perfect for me. My husband got the hot and enjoyed it. My niece got the medium and said it was perfect and my daughter got mild and said she could of gone hotter. The cashier, I believe her name was Ashley, was very friendly and took the time to help us determine heat levels. I appreciated the manager coming over to give us a 10% discount but I didn't ask why (maybe because he heard we were first time customers?). However, the discount was not reflected on the bill. It's fine though because I wasn't expecting a discount and he had all the best intentions. I will return to this location for more tasty chicken and friendly service. read more

First time here at Dave's - we ordered the 1 meat platter lunch specials $12.99, we picked the St. Louis ribs which were delicious! The waitress also recommends us the Famous Bread Pudding with pecans sauce and vanilla ice cream. The dessert portion is good for sharing. Overall very good service and good food! read more

Famous Dave's - Bread pudding - Barbeque Near Me - Doral, Florida

Service good. Food so so. Came for dinner. I get things are more expensive now but when the menu reflects the same love for smoked chicken, pork and veg platter, one and one don't equal $22. All restaurants are fighting for the same pool of clients. If one says there's a difference is cost reflected for pork, chicken and beef then it would be different price at all restaurants as you're all taking the same suppliers and negotiating different wholesale cost. I got a loaded potato described as piled high with your choice of beef pork or chicken. Given the only protein and "piled high" description was a little disappointed there wasn't enough chicken for the whole potato. I'd come again but only for lunch. Dinner prices are steep for what appears to be lunch size portions. Even the prizes are priced at $14 and up. As a regular single diner, $15 app, $22 meal, $4 tea, doesn't pass the justification of eating out. 18 or 21 meals a week I eat out. $50 on one meal at one place is a special occasion once we're 6 months. read more

We were in town for one night and hubby loves bbq so he read the reviews ahead of time. It did not disappoint. Great service from Roxana and we got there with 14 mins to spare for Happy Hour with great beer prices! St Louis Ribs were meaty and satisfying even without any bbq sauce on top. Plantains and coleslaw were ample portions and tasty. We sat in the covered outdoor area which was so nice on a mild night. Stop in and check out their daily specials and large menu. read more

As soon as you sit down, they serve you a small bowl of BBQ flavored potato chips, which is great if you're a chip lover like myself, eat some chips while you browse the menu. However not all the chips are crisp and crunchy, so a bit disappointing. Guillermo was our server, he was awesome! He brought our drinks right away and would every so often come check on us to make sure we were doing good. Ordered the Tostones with 3 different meats, delicious. Louisville BBQ ribs were sweet, and they have over 5 different flavored sauces to add onto the ribs if you need that extra Zing! Sides were ok, Corn tasted over cooked and the butter that accompanied it was not sweet. Mac & Cheese, Cole Slaw & potatoes were ok, nothing out of this world. Great service, but overall food was nothing out of this world, but then again the type of BBQ I'm used to is that found in N. Carolina or Tennessee. True Southern BBQ places! read more

We were coming back to Miami from DisneyWorld and were looking for places to eat in the Doral area and I found a couple of places but decided to eat here. There was no waiting time to get seated. Our server greeted us right away and my husband ordered La Rubia beer which originally from Wynwood, Miami and I ordered the Sangria. For dinner we ordered the Cedar Plank Salmon and my husband ordered a hamburger with fries. We got our food within a couple of minutes and the food was so tasty and yummy. If you like watching sports or games they have a couple of tvs around the restaurant where you can enjoy while you eat and have drinks with family or friends. The location is close to Dolphin Mall and CityPlace Doral which has some nightclubs and restaurants that you can also go. read more

I used to live right across the street from the Famous Dave's in Doral, and it was a great "go-to" place for a quick, delicious BBQ fix. Nice place to grab a drink in the bar and slather up a rack of ribs. Easy in and out - always had a great meal at Dave's read more

Service was amazing. My family was served by Mariah and she was super attentive, polite, and accommodating to our needs. She often checked in on us and asked us if we all needed anything. The food was also super fast, and really good. It was a little salty, but it was good overall. read more

I'm always looking forward to trying out new bbq. Let's just say this place can be skipped. Nothing memorable about the experience. I mean the food tasted ok but that's it. I love my bbq spot to have many different sauces. Only two here. They were good but not out of this world. I found the prices to be a little expensive. The St. Louis ribs were pretty good but the Brisket that was supposed to be amazing was not really. Cocktails were like $9 the bbq platter for one was $24. The sides were bland. I just wasn't impressed. Let's just say I'm still craving good bbq. read more

In my experience, service takes an excruciatingly long time. And sitting in the restaurant is faster than takeout. The sauce used is decent but the meat itself needs quite a bit more seasoning. The beans are ok. I don't know that I was expecting a lot, but they delivered up to that expectation. read more

Take-Out review This location of Famous Dave's was open until 11PM on a Sunday, which is practically unheard of lately. I took advantage and placed my order since I'd been craving brisket and my usual BBQ go-to had already closed. I placed my order at 9:47PM and received a pickup time of 10:08PM - although skeptical at how quick this was for three meals, I appreciated it since we were starving. I got there at 10:09PM and parked in a curbside designated space. I wasn't sure if someone would bring the food to me or if I had to go in so I went through the curbside door to a little waiting area. Upon walking in, NO ONE greeted me, not a single person. Even though there were four people in that area who saw me: a woman wearing a red tank top, the bartender, what looked like a server going in and out of the kitchen then talking to the bartender, and the woman on the phone who was working the curbside area. Understandably she might've been complicated taking down an order but a simple "we'll/she'll be right with you" would have sufficed from any of the employees who saw me waiting. Once the the curbside employee was off the phone, she greeted me and gave me my order. Now, the food -- the cornbread was delicious! It's more on the sweet side so I held myself back and only ate half. The brisket, however, was subpar and full of fat. So much so that after eating one piece, I threw it away. Perhaps my expectations were set too high considering my usual is a local bbq joint and not a chain? I don't know but that meat definitely missed the mark. The Mac and cheese was tasty and different. I appreciated that it wasn't runny or watery, but mushy instead. Fries were nothing out of this world either. To be fair, it could've been an "off" day considering it was a weekend and they were very busy. read more

Outstanding service. This was my first time here but I'll be back because cristy was probably one of the best servers I've ever had. Like ever. She was really nice and super attentive. Her friendly demeanor enhanced our dining experience. When you go to famous Dave make sure you sit at Cristy's table! We ordered the ribs and they are better than flannigans! Yum! Can't wait to go back! read more

Food was awesome and service was better! First time trying Famous Dave's and I will most certainly return soon with more friends. I got the wings and spare ribs and both cooked to perfection.

Folks...! Didn't take third is the charm for this BBQ joint. Unfortunately, I went back tonight expecting the same high quality food as I experienced the first go-around and it was disappointingly average-poor at best. We ordered the chop pork plate and we ate around the fat and grease. It was already too late to go anywhere else so we made the best of what we had ordered. The owner that was in front us was eating his fajitas that fantastically sizzled like ours did last time and smelled delicious; unfortunately, all our meals fell short from average not to mention delicious. We were right on time for the late happy hour so my Robert Mondavi Cabernet bottle was the only saving grace 'cause it came in a bottle and not prepared by the bar in a carafe. Adding insult to injury, all of a sudden we see without exaggeration, 6 police cars and 10 or so police officers entering the restaurant for a dispute with a man that had too much to drink in the bar area. At that point it was dinner and a "whatever you do - don't shoot" show. When I mentioned to the server that I had heard from Manny, asst. mgr. last time I was there, that I would get a free dessert if I wrote a Yelp review (which I was going to do anyway), she told me that I had to re-review to get it...what....?!! Are you kidding...?! Anyway, she spoke to Eddy, the mgr., and she gave us a free bread pudding which came too microwaved hot, ice cream melted and without a thought - incredibly sloppy...nah...! -- my Christmas waistline didn't need or deserved the hot mess...! The only good thing was our server - Melissa. She was incredibly nice, respectful and overall a great server. As I told her, she was the only good thing that came out of this dining experience. As I previously mentioned, the place has accommodated its prices but it's still not cheap; and for that main reason, the food has to always be consistently good. It's hard to make a buck nowadays and this place won't get it from me any time soon..! Folks...I changed this restaurant's review to a hit or miss; and with this economy and pandemic, you might as well go to a restaurant with a consistent hit which is not this one...no Bon Appétit...! read more

Tis' good, YUM. Entering the restaurant you'll notice a fancy ambiance but not so fancy prices. Service has been great every time and happy hour 3-9 every day is quite the perk. My favorite here is definitely the cornbread muffin - so warm and delicious. The BBQ ribs and bacon burger get the second place, also quite YUM. Sometimes I get the $23 meal and get a bit of everything, then I take the rest to work the next day. read more
