“ So, I use to go to Famous Dave's often, back in the day. They started closing, so I hadn't gone in several years... too far out. However, I tried them yesterday (May-19-25) and I'm so glad I went. Not only was out worth the drive, but worth the visit period! Whoever was in that kitchen, wanted to be there. You can tell when someone pours their heart into a dish and takes the necessary time to do it right. They did it right. The rib tips, wings, cornbread and ribs were on point. Even the corn was cooked to perfection. And on top of that, Connor waited on me and was a great server. Great experience. Looking forward to resuming my visits there. ”
“ This place was incredible. I almost gave up hope finding a bbq place to match what I left behind in Texas. But I lucked out and found this spot close to Omaha. The ribs are tasty and brisket is tender and cooked to perfection. Atmosphere is cozy and interesting, like a way back machine or visit to an Americana museum. The server was attentive and pleasant. It was a great experience overall. ”
“ Great food, incredible waitstaff and manager. Went above and beyond. Will definitely be recommending to family and friends. Thanks for making my son's birthday dinner so great! ”
“ Food was amazing customer service was amazing only issue I had was when I order the ultimate burger I always edit it and sub the Pork out for brisket and it’s phenomenal but how do I get more brisket with the substituting the pork but the other day I go the 2 meat 2 side meal with brisket and catfish the quality of food was amazing but I got only 5 slabs of meat whereas when I sub the pork on the ultimate burger I get 6-7 pieces the catfish was 5 pieces also excellent quality. And the mash potatoes and broccoli even tho the mash potatoes with garlic tasted a day old. Overall I 100% recommend this location reasonable prices Lunch ends at 4PM and Excellent quality. ”
“ I haven't been in years. "Corporate bbq" but last trip changed my mind! Quickest service and the ribs were actually really good! Always loved their sauce options. Pleasantly surprised ”
“ One and two meat combos were flavorful and tender! Exceptional Mashed potatoes and delectable cornbread muffin! We were too full to get our favorite dessert-Bread Pudding, but will make a point to grab one, to-go, next time! Our Seever was fabulous and let us happy and drinks refilled! ”
“ I work for Famous Dave's so I might be bias! Come in for some great BBQ! And don't forget about the great drinks!! ”
“ I went to have lunch with a friend. I have never been there prior. We placed our orders. When the food had arrived I informed our waiter of a concern I had with a side order. He immediately cured it and enjoyed our meals. The manager came by to inquire on the results. I was very pleased with the willingness to address the concerns. Everyone enjoyed the meal as well as the service received. I absolutely appreciate and enjoyed the experience at Famous Dave's! ”
