Great service and great food!!! Staff is always friendly would definitely recommend for group events

Solid 4- It has been 10 years since I updated my review on this restaurant. Food is the same, but the service is definitely WAY better. I am happy they have maintained this restaurant which makes it a good place to enjoy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love the vibe and hearing the wait staff calling out, "FEAST" when they order that platter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Price is reasonable. Food is decent. read more

Famous Dave's - So good we forgot to get the picture before. - Barbeque Near Me - Fresno, California

We had an amazing experience at Famous Dave's, and it was all thanks to Ray! From the moment we sat down, he brought such a great personality to our table. He was friendly, fast, respectful, and always made sure me and my family were doing okay and had everything we needed. His positive attitude truly made our dining experience even better. It later came to my attention that Ray is actually a manager, and that made me even more impressed. Not only was he taking great care of us, but I noticed how he was leading his team throughout the restaurant. He was helping his staff, supporting them, and making sure not just our table -- but every table -- was taken care of. You could really see his leadership in action. Famous Dave's, you truly have an amazing employee. You are blessed to have someone like Ray on your team representing your restaurant. Because of the outstanding service and leadership he showed, I highly recommend Famous Dave's. 10 out of 10 -- completely out of the ballpark! We will definitely be back! read more

Had a good meal along with good service from the server Tania. She was very attentive and kind will be looking forward to coming again. read more

Great service and great food for a family of 9 Our server was still in training but did a fabulous job meeting the requests of our whole family! read more

All I can say is YUCK!! The place was clean. The food in the dessert case was unappetizing looking. Food was rubbery at best. Ribs were dried out. The brisket tasted fake. Bread under the brisket hard. Corn bread stale. Corn on the cob was old and fries had absolutely no flavor!! The only plus was the waitress (pronounced Tania, spelt differently) was very polite and professional. The manager on the other hand. We tried to get his attention twice but he walked past us avoiding us. What happened to this place!! Will never be back!!! Terrible waste of money. read more

This location chose to partake in a wonderful fund raising event for a local animal rescue organization but when it came to making sure the 20% went to the fund raiser, the MANAGER claimed the proceedure was not followed properly and NONE of my over $75 check went to the organization. He claimed he could not override what was already entered into the computer. TOTAL BS!!! I know for a fact that a MANAGER can process an override! HE JUST DIDN'T WANT TO GO THROUGH THE HASSEL. He clearly didn't care about the cause and only saw his profit being taken. Not only was this poor judgment, and totally against the reason for offering to partake in the first place, THE FOOD WAS BELOW AVERAGE!! The cashier was nice. You could tell she knew he could help but chose not to. read more

First time here and stopped in after a long day on the road for business. Sat at the bar and had exceptional hospitality and service from Brittany. In fact, all the staff was attentive and helpful. Really enjoyed their blue cheese dressing with my side salad, tri-tip and the Mac-n-Cheese had a nice bite of heat. read more

9/1/25 Happy Labor Day!! Getting lunch! Hailey took the order and was very kind! Cajun chicken sandwich with no mayo & cornbread & Rib Tips appetizer ordered. She said it would be ready in 10-15 min. Arrived to get it! They have a to-go door/entrance. Small wait and greeted by nice worker. Received order shortly later with good day wishes! Asked & given extra bbq sauce. Lunchtime! Order split! Rib tips were Delicious! Even better with the Devil's Spit BBQ sauce! Cajun chicken sandwich 1/2 was Great! Fresh & Tasty! Cornbread' was GREAT too. Full, but had to try a bite. It cane with fries and they were GREAT too! Fantastic lunch with TONS of leftovers! Mother said hers was Really GREAT too!! She loved it all! We definitely have another meal with how much food was given! Good service & Great lunch! Highly recommended!! read more

We ordered 2 baked potatoes with chicken and the chicken was pink and didn't seem cooked. All the containers were not put on right and it was just a disaster. Plus the inside of the bag was soaking wet. It also was missing toppings. For how much it cost it was not worth it. I will say the bread pudding was good at least. read more

Papa wanted BBQ for his bday so we took him here... The food was bomb and the ribs were so tender they fell off the bone! The waitress was awesome and was in a bubbly mood... her smile was beautiful and she was very attentive to the birthday boy.

Great service, nice people , we came in for a dessert and it was awesome. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very great atmosphere[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

I came in with my family last night for a birthday dinner and I'm so glad I did. The food was delicious, our server was quick and attentive. The manager, I believe his name was Adam, even came by our table to make sure we were satisfied and enjoying our meal. The overall experience was a 10/10. Highly recommend! read more

This place is terrible. I got the 3 meat combo for 32. It came with the smallest portions of meat not only that they were overcooked and disgusting. I got sweet corn as a side and it was not sweet it was even wilted. Then what I ordered as fries came out as wedges and they were also not good. My parents were also unhappy with their meal which I paid for and I paid for the birthday boy. 100 for very little disgusting food. Also our server was inattentive took forever to bring someone's please and held onto my credit card for like 20 minutes. I had even asked for it back at one point and she said she had not yet run it. I also had bariatric surgery and I carry that card that lets people know my stomach is mostly gone and that I can order from the kids menu but they did not allow that there. Which is rude! The kids with us didn't even order from the kids menu so it's not like the lost money. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also our menus and table were dirty and sticky.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I am sure they have food safety issues here. I will never return. read more

Always an awesome experience. The food is always the best. The burnt ends and rib tips are my favorite. Food is always awesome and service is the best. read more

Service was great . We went on a weekend and the wait wasn't too long . We got the family fest to share I forgot which one but it was incredible.huge meat selections and everything was cooked to perfection .. chicken was really good. It's hard to find a good grilled chicken without it being dry so this was amazing. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Restaurant was clean service was nice and fast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Brisket was so tough, I could not tear it apart with my two hands. It was replaced but the new meat was very poor quality. Fries and Brocolli and corn bread was delicious. They need to get a new meat supplier asap. read more

We had a wonderful time, the service is fantastic, the food is wonderful, one of our favorite places

Food was amazing!!! We went with the family and friends feast. Stuck with the rib-lets, chicken, Beans, coleslaw, French fries, and corn bread. All around It was a great dinner. We also added a side of Mac n cheese and it was creamy and cheesy. The corn bread was amazing. Nice and quite great bbq theme. Service was great, a little too long from seating to ordering and our waiter waited about 20min to ask us what we wanted to drink. Hopefully our next visit our waitress will be more attentive. Other than that it was a great experience and always a great choice to eat!!! read more

Amazing Ashley was great. Food was good but what made this place so good was the service. We didn't feel weird with our baby crying and our server was good and quick. Even a manager walked by and asked if we needed anything. Thank you guys! read more

The only good part was the happy hour beer that I got. The waiter said the brisket was the best item but when it came out it seemed old and not fresh at all. It was no better than frozen brisket from the store. The pulled pork was better but not amazing. I would not recommend this place for BBQ read more

Great service and food!!!! We were well taken care of!!!!!! Food was awesome as normal.

We had the pleasure of Famous Adam helping us today. We order the Feast for 2 because it is so good! He recommended we try the burndt ends brisket & we did! The food never disappoints! read more

Thank you, for your ribs, brother Adam, Bobby Hella' Cool. Im here every weekend grabbing some ribs

I love coming here with my fam when we are craving bbq and meat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a great restaurant with amazing vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The coleslaw is one of my favorite sides besides the corn and corn bread. I ordered this bbq chicken sandwich one time and I do not regret it ONE bit. It was absolutely perfect; had the right amount of sauce and a lot of chicken which I really enjoyed. The service is always really good and have absolutely no complaints about anything at all. read more

Famous Dave's - BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Fresno, California

Just OK. Is this the best BBQ you'll ever have? Nah. Will you leave with a happy and full belly? Yup. The inside is super spacious with TONS of seating and they have funny lil BBQ related signs on the wall. Service is efficient! I think this place is great for sharing with people, especially for people who like bbq. We came in as a party of 5 and got the Family and Friends Feast! We were worried that it wouldn't be enough food since the menu said it feeds between 3-5 people, but it was definitely enough and we even had leftovers to take home! The fest came with ribs, roasted chicken, coleslaw, fries, beans, sweet corn, AND corn bread. We also got a side of mac n cheese as an add-on but it had corn in it??? I've never seen corn in mac n cheese and idk if any of my party was a fan sadly. I would say the best part of the feast was surprisingly the chicken! It was fall off the bone tender and super juicy! I liked it. I didn't think anything else was really worth writing home about but I left satisfied. read more

Famous Dave's - Family and Friends Feast - Barbeque Near Me - Fresno, California

Had an amazing experience at Famous Dave's! From the moment we walked in, everything was on point--the food, the atmosphere, and especially the service. Huge shoutout to Ray, the bar manager--seriously, he made the whole visit unforgettable. He took care of us with excellent service and gave spot-on suggestions that we probably wouldn't have tried otherwise. Every recommendation hit, and you can tell he really knows the menu and cares about making sure guests have the best experience possible. What stood out the most is how he treated us--not just like customers, but like family. That kind of genuine hospitality is rare, and it made a big difference in our night. I was extremely satisfied, and honestly, it was all thanks to him. If you stop by, do yourself a favor and take Ray's suggestions--you won't regret it! read more
