It was a great experience. Not what you would call gourmet dining, just tasty wholesome food. We loved it! Our waitress was friendly and helpful. We had pulled pork and roast chicken,came with corn bread and two sides from a good selection. We were too full for desert! It was all really tasty and well cooked.

I decided today to have lunch at our local Famous Dave's in Knoxville. I was greeted at the door and I asked if I could sit at the bar. Of course you may said my greeter. The table I sat at was not cleaned and he promptly asked if he could wipe it down and he did so, but not...

I have eaten before at this chain in Rochester, NY. My wife and I went on a Thursday night. The special was rib tips (all you can eat) and 2 sides for $9.95. It was also happy hour with a 2 for 1 special for margaritas and draft. You are given two drinks per person, you cannot share, which was...

We used to love to go to Famous Daves for the "Family Feast." The last time we went it was terrible. Service was not good. Table, menu, bbq bottles, chairs, every surface; was sticky and nasty. The food was average. Wont ever go back.

My wife and I decided to try Famous Daves for lunch while in Knoxville. What a huge mistake. But, it will be a mistake we will only make once! My wife had the ribs and I had a combo of brisket and rib tips. Both meals were dry and way, way over cooked. The only thing worse than the food...

Beef brisket was very good and the stew was pretty good. However, the side dishes had a lot to be desired. We ordered take out and the service was very good. This is not the first time we have tried this resturant but we were not as impressed this time around. Maybe we ordered different side dishes last time. I...
