Famous Dave's - Craig Road

Came in on a Saturday at 1pm thinking it may be busy for lunch...it wasn't and we were seated quickly. Food was melt in your mouth amazing. Amber was our waitress and she was so sweet and checked on us frequently. Amber, you have an amazing voice...yes we heard you...and dont ever stop! Great customer service and personality thanks to Amber! Will be back to this location very soon!

Everything we ordered taste very good. Service was awesome. Atmosphere was nice.

Me and my husband come quite often, we always seem to get Amber as our server. Really nice and I love the fact that she remembers us and our orders

It was our first time in a Famous Dave's. We were immediately greeted by Diana. With her charming personality and ambiance of the restaurant, it felt like coming home. The fireplace and rustic charm in the dining room certainly set the tone of our overall experience. Ky's service was impeccable. She was prompt and articulate. She was an absolute joy. As for the food? We indulged in catfish fingers to start, although I'm not a fan, my wife loved them. They were seasoned perfectly and, had the perfect crunch. We overindulged in a platter for 2. Neither of us eat very much. Holy Smoke, we should have called for backup. We sampled a little bit of everything on the plater until we couldn't. Everything was tender and smoked to perfection. That beautiful oak smoke ring on the brisket was a pretty sight. Overall, we agreed we will be back. We've eaten a lot of smokehouse fare and by far, this is the best we've had in a long time. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

I want to recognize Angel! She is a Customer Service Champion! There is a great crew there, I just want to highlight her authenticity, neighborly welcome and praise her attention to the whole customer experience! Thank you! Hope you are considered for a larger role in the company. You are consistently delivering kindness!

These people love their job. Always a smile and even some jokes lol. Always making sure you get the best for your money. I come JUST for the banana pudding I know I should not be having lol. 10/10

Best barbecue I’ve ever had. The service was phenomenal. She was on top of everything. Her name is Amber!! 👍🏆😇 We come to Famous Dave’s at least once a month or more and love it every time!! The Feast for 2 or 4 people is amazing all the food you get 3 meats, corn cob, cornbread, beans, coleslaw, fries and I promise you all is super great food!!

If your pescatarian like I this is grilled Salmon so good, my husband and some had two Sampler platers they loved, be advise if you want greens or beans it’s either beef or pork inside. Thank you

The young lady Ferrari who helped me was very patience, polite, helpful, friendly and understanding! I had been here in along while. I didn't bring my glasses in. She took the time to go over the menu with me. Thanks so much Ferrari , I really appreciate that! The food was hot! But, the pulled pork was dry, the mac & cheese had no taste/season, way too many fries! I did enjoy the ribs, chicken, baked beans and corn! So next time I will just order that. Ferrari and the young man at the counter work well together. The was ⭐️⭐️⭐️ But, the service was ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ They made sure I had all of the sauces, wet napkins and utensils. Thanks again for great service!

Okay, so their ribs are lip smackin', pull off of the bone, tender, tangy, sticks of goodness. Can you tell that I like them? 😋😛 The Wilbur beans are o-k. Nothing special. The Cole slaw is pretty creamy and tasty but nothing to get excited about. I took lots of pictures of their menu since I couldn't find any online that were legible. Plenty of selections but it could stand some improvement. They don't offer much for dessert or even cocktails. Their bar is minimal at best. I don't drink so I don't know if their drinks are reasonably priced. For dinner, I'd say expect to pay $17-30 per person. I think that that's pretty reasonable. Call ahead and order a takeout. Mine was ready in about 15 minutes. Comfortable atmosphere, nothing special or fancy. Just good eats and good times. Enjoy! Update*** WHAT HAPPENED to the Famous Dave's I once knew and drooled over?! This last visit was not what I expect at this eatery. The ribs are usually so good you literally can pull them apart and pull the meat off of the bones. Not so on this last visit. The ribs were average at best and not so tender. The fries were over cooked and rock hard. The ice water was delicious! The coleslaw was warm but creamy and well seasoned.

Had a tasty pulled pork sandwich w/fries; & Jameson peach tea that tasted great. Service was attentive & friendly. This trip was takeout, I had pulled chicken (who knew), baked beans, green beans & a corn bread muffin. Everything tasted good except the green beans, they were flavorless & are in serious need of seasoning, also I'd like them to bring back the whole chicken, as it wasn't on the menu to order (via Grub Hub). Lastly, my order was showing as completed at 6:42 but my order wasn't actually ready until after 7:30.

I normally don't eat corn bread, but the ones here were amazingly moist. I enjoyed the food we ordered and the service that came with it.

Cane here during happy hour between 2pm-6pm. It was 50% off on appetizers! The cheese curds were delicious. Also got the lunch portion of pulled pork and brisket. The pulled pork was really good and the brisket a little dry but also good. Service was friendly and the place has a sit in bar with multiple TV’s to catch any game you want

Our server Kayla was on point, checking if our food was good, filled my tea glass, and was just a nice person. This is the #1 reason I come to Famous Dave's. The food is really good, don't get me wrong, but good service is hard to come by. 03-03-25 No greeter when you enter so you're stuck at the front looking for seat ya. I'm guessing only 1 waitress and between 4 tables, we saw her once, and that was for a refill. It did not meet expectations and that's sad because I really like this place. *Edit* 1-25-26 Thank you Amber for the excellent service.

It was good for a chain restaurant but there bbq sauce could use some help. Other than that it was reasonably priced for the 3 maet plate that I ordered.

It had been many years since I had been to one. There was definitely hits and some misses. But largely there were more hits. The ribs were fine, I'm just not sure I would order them again. The bread pudding is so phenomenal I would say you could go just for that, in fact I have again done just that. Went again Jan '26. Ribs were much better tonight, and the bread pudding remains phenomenal🔥🔥

I ordered the Southside rib tips and was both surprised and disappointed. I've had them before and enjoyed them but this time they were very overcooked any dry which made them difficult to eat so I just gave up.

The food is usually great my fiance and I love ribs tips. so, it throws us off when we order the 2 person platter and get rib tips. We expect rib tips not the whole spare rib chopped up. We were confused by our second to last visit. However they did serve us mostly the tip of the rib this time. It was yummy. But I def asked and asked for clarity to make sure I get what we wanted.

food was in large portions but came out a little slow. Ordered ribs and sample platter. Last rib was dry but the rest were fine. Sample platter had dry ribs but good tenders, wings and fish. Our server was a little slow but overall, the price is reasonable for vegas

I had a reservation which was I 5 minutes early too. Walked in the door along with another couple and there was no one at the hosts desk to greet us. I proceeded to the bar area which was completely empty, there was also no one behind the bar. After about a 10:00 to 12 minute wait, a young lady comes around and takes my order. Also ordered a drink. The drink was made 2 minutes before my food arrived. The atmosphere was completely dead, the young lady that had taken out order was overworked because of being spread then. She was the only one that was taking orders, bartending, running orders but mind you there were other employees there. And their young lady that she had to be that stressed out because no one would help her out. And you had customers in the dining area and the bar unattended.

Saw billboards about Dave's BBQ so we decided to dine here. The restaurant is pretty big and we were seated quickly. Our server, Amber, was very nice and pleasant. She came by a few times to check on us and she deserves 5 Stars. Food: 6 Bones Award Winning Pork Spareribs Burnt Buttz Meal 2 Shots of Crown Royal The Spareribs were good, nice and tender and the sauce it came with was a bit too sweet for me but I still ate it. I was not a fan of the burnt buttz, pork & beans and cornbread. It's a possibility because I had really good BBQ back in San Diego. My BF who has been to a lot of Midwest BBQ restaurants says it's not as good as he's had it. Now, for my Crown. I ordered it Crown on the Rocks. It was extra watered down and the taste wasn't a CROWN taste (I drink it every day.) It had a slight cherry taste. Maybe it was mixed with the ice that had the flavor so I asked for a shot. Same thing, not a crown taste. For me, wasted money. Overall, I don't think I'd ever return. The highlight was our server.

The barbecue is just average. Not bad at all, but not great. Sides are good especially the beans. Just my opinion. Staff is very friendly so I give them a super star!

My family came on a Monday at about 3, we were seated fairly quickly, and our orders were fairly quick. And our server was really nice. But I did feel bad for two other groups of people, one of which who sat themselves after waiting to be seated about 20 minutes and waited but no one came out to serve them the entire time we out. But overall good cost for the amount of food. Maybe order it to go?

Catfish fingers were good. Green beans were so so. Not very appealing. Never had a bad Pina colada till I went to this location. Sent the first one back. The second one was so bad I wasn't able to drink it either. It was supposed to be a blended, but looked like a blended left on the counter for so long the ice melted and ingredients separated. Food landed heavy. Only good thing about the experience was the waitress. Now I know why this location has bad reviews.

Overall food was dry and wasn’t fresh but the flavors are there. I just wish the food would be made to order or at least inspected before being severed. The catfish was very good although still dry. The rib tips were rubbery and not fresh. I hate to say it but I’ve never had good fresh ribs at any famous Dave’s so it’s a little disappointing that they don’t care about something so popular on their menu.

Made an online order for St Louis ribs full slab and hot fudge sundae. That was an easy process. So why the 3-star rating. Two reasons; first it took 15 minutes longer than stated to have the order ready. Second and most importantly is that Dave should be ashamed with the $5.69 hot fudge sundae provided with a takeout order. What was provided was no where near what should have been provided and wasn't worth more than $1.00. Added photos of Dave's Famous Hot Fudge sundae from his menu and what it actually is for takeout. Yes, I could have rejected the sundae when I picked up my order but I thought it was better to take it to provide fully validated review. Seriously, Dave should be ashamed of what he did. If it wasn't for the sundae my rating would be 4-stars which is the highest ratings I give except for rare instances.

I knew I needed to order a BBQ meal for a family birthday dinner a few days ago while I'm in town, so I saw Famous Dave's show up in my search results. I regret this order, and felt so embarrassed when I got home to look at what we received. The meal was the "All-American BBQ Feast," and it was advertised to feed 4-6 people. I would say, if you are going to advertise it to be a "feast" feeding 4-6 full grown adults, it should have enough sides at least to feed everyone. The advertisement reads directly from their website as of a few minutes ago "A full slab of St. Louis-Style Spareribs, a whole Country-Roasted Chicken, choice of Texas Beef Brisket or Georgia Chopped Pork, Creamy Coleslaw, Famous Fries, Wilbur Beans, Sweet Corn and Corn Bread Muffins. Serves 4-6." Nowhere does it say each side would feed only 2 people. It was ridiculous where one person opted out of eating because we thought there was not enough food. We made it work while rationing during this celebration, and spending over $80. Luckily, I added an extra Macaroni & Cheese which made it a little better, I guess? Even with that add on, it was so small to where it was probably more beneficial to order individual meals instead. This was so embarrassing, and such little food. We only had 5 adults and 1 child eating, but it ended up being 4 adults and a child with rationing. My recommendation is to show a picture or sizes on the descriptions, and to make these numbers more realistic for adult portions. People expect to have enough food when ordering from the catering menu, and to have these numbers close to accurate. This was not the case, as mentioned. If you look at the photo attached, there were only 4 corn bread muffins and sweet corn portions. There should be enough sides to feed the maximum number of people. We had to start slicing corn bread muffins, and cutting corn down. Giving each person 1-2 tablespoons of sides. It tasted good, with what I could eat. The bad thing was it was like a sampling appetizer. A few dollars more, I could have got each person their own meal. This definitely needs to be re-worked. Again, the photo shows an add on side that was not included in the package, so ignore the fact the macaroni and cheese was there. The beans might be hard to see, but there were two small containers included. I will say, there was plenty of BBQ sauce than the amount of food.

I ordered through grubhub on Thursday evening. Waited 90before calling to see if order would be delivered soon. They said they never received order. That the WiFi was down. The next day (this evening) I placed my order again and I called to make sure they received it. After arriving late, not drivers fault. They were slow getting order ready and the driver had to sit there and wait for order to be finished. When order finally arrives it’s wrong. I ordered 3 meat combo. Brisket, tips and jalapeño sausage. Sides ordered were steamed broccoli and loaded baked potato. I got neither side. Mac and cheese was sent instead. Mind you the loaded potato is extra $3.95. I got 3 little tiny pieces of brisket that were 1/3 fat. Literally 2.5”x1.25”x5/8” thick pieces. Dryer than popcorn farts💨! The tips were ok what few there were. The sausage was dry but tasted ok. I’m not a fan of Mac and cheese so… The cornbread was excellent! I have to give them that. Pretty pathetic situation in my opinion. I rarely ever post reviews . It’s either stellar outstanding experience or I will need therapy for the next 6 months before I’ll review something. I will need 9 months from this one. I was livid!!!! Stay away from this place folks. $35 plus tax and tip? Not! I took a picture of the Mac and cheese so I could prove my sides were wrong. You can kind of see the portions though

Worst dining experience EVER!!! Called the day before for 9 people at 3pm. Got there, there were maybe 3 tables sat. Waited 35 min for a table that was empty the whole time. I'm the only one that had to get to work. As soon as our server got to the table, I ordered my food. 45 min later still no food. I finally had to leave. Going to work on an empty stomach. Looked forward all night to my Dave's burger cooked medium, when I get home. Only to find a completely cremated burger. NEVER AGAIN DAVE'S. NEVER AGAIN.

The rib tips I got were completely burnt and dried out to the point you couldn’t eat them! They had some much charred on them when you picked them up my fingers were covered in it! Very disappointing!

I tried again, the ribs were better but the pineapple steaks were burnt. Famous Dave's is not cheap, so of course you expect more. Last Sunday I ordered the rib dinner with 2 sides. The ribs were horrible, and I will explain. They were fatty and not cooked well. It's like they get the cheaper meat selection. The corn and the baked beans were good, also the muffin, but not with $25 plus tip. It was a to-go order that I couldn't even eat.

Usually the food here is really great. But this time I truly did not enjoy my meal. It started with the service, there were 3 servers in our area yet it took more than 15 minutes for one of them to acknowledge us and that was to say, “I’m not your server but I’ll find out who is.” I guess she couldn’t she couldn’t find someone so she ended up being our server. As you can see the grilled pineapple looked like it fell on the grill and tasted like it. And the catfish fingers were overcooked. The cornbread and the coleslaw were delicious!

Yesterday I placed an order with DoorDash for a rib tip app It came with majority fries in it and pickles and onions. It literally gave me these three ribs. I am from Los Angeles so when I come to Las Vegas, this is my go to, however I don’t feel like it was worth my money 3 Rip tips is crazy I could care less for the fries. Ordered this so I could have it returning back to work in Los Angeles and here I am with three red tips. Unacceptable.

We keep trying to give them a chance but the BBQ is dry or burnt every time now. It seems like they do this on the to-go orders. This food costs too much for most of it to be inedible. From reading other reviews it seems to be a cook problem burning and overcooking food

If I could give zero stars I would! I can't believe how terrible the food was! I got the burnt ends dinner and I don't even think it was meat(beef or pork) they served. The macaroni and cheese tasted like they used powder cheese. My daughter and my daughter-in-law got burgers and one was raw in the middle. Not rare but raw. None of us finished the food. Wasted over $100. I should of suspected something was not right because we were the only people in there. Never again will I go to a Famous Dave's!

We decided on having dinner here after moving back to Vegas last summer. On January 16 around 5:30pm our waitress Braneisha I think that was her name, my apologies if that’s incorrect greeted us and was patient and delivered great customer service , after the kitchen sent out food that was unacceptable. We ordered two-3 meat combos and a cheeseburger combo. We were served after waiting 45 minutes, with fatty brisket on top of cold hard bread, greasy fish and a burger that was suppose to be well done but had pink in the middle. The baked potato was cold and the Mac n cheese was not spicy as requested. I asked to speak with the manger and informed Jesus (the manager) the meal was unacceptable and I would pay for the appetizers and our drinks being we took a few bites of our meals. He said “you don’t have to pay and you can just leave” , I was shocked to be spoken to in that matter and felt disrespected during this encounter by someone who should have handled the situation in a more professional way as a manger. I tipped the waitress and left. I will never return to this establishment and will make sure my friends and family know not give this establishment any business.

They wonder why this place is always dead. The service and the quality of food is the absolute worst. Makes you never want to come back again. Dry crusty flavorless food that takes an hour to get. This restaurant needs a new manager or its on its way out of business.

I called myself trying Famous Dave's for the 1st Time ever in Life as a Birthday gift to myself! I Wish I had went with my 1st mind and just got Five Guys Burger & Fries! Being as though I was craving Rib tips I said let's see what Famous Dave's is about and boy do I regret going there in the 1st place and will not be Back!! My Rib tips were poorly made, Tough, Severely burnt and The whole meal was a waste of my hard earned Money! I don't know if it's the Cook or the unwelcoming staff but I will NEVER make the mistake of buying food from them! The pic of the food speaks for itself! Wish I can give them 0 Stars cause how disrespectful to serve anyone trash like This!!! Fire the whole staff at this point!
