My husband had baby back ribs and loved them. I had roasted chicken and didn’t like it at all. The server, Julia, made up for what my food lacked. She was great!!

Our cheese curds came with over half of them with ZERO cheese our server said she would tell the manager. Nothing happened. No one addressed it again. We paid for a full appetizer and barely got half of one.

The food was fine; the service was very slow. We asked if they were short staffed, and were told no. It took well over half an hour to just get water.

We were disappointed with this visit. We have dined at Famous Dave’s on and off over the years and have previously been pleased with our dining experience. Unfortunately, this time was different. Service was great, from the hostess to our server and other staff we interacted with. But the food was disappointing. The ribs were not very tender and the pulled chicken didn’t have much flavor. The Wilbur beans and fries were good though. I noticed that the restaurant had very few patrons for a Saturday evening at 7 pm. In years past there would have been a waiting line of several families. I even chose to make a reservation in anticipation of a long wait. Turns out a reservation was unnecessary. There was plenty of seating. I suspect the quality of this restaurant has declined of late.

Though we arrived a bit earlier than our scheduled reservation, we were seated right away. Our food was delicious, our wait staff was friendly and accommodated our ordering a take-out entree at the end of our meal. We also asked for our desserts to be take out as well and to be honest (as a chocolate lover), I have never tasted a fudgier, more scrumptious brownie than Famous Dave's. We were there to celebrate both our wedding anniversary and a birthday and Famous Dave's was exactly the dinner spot we were looking fwd to celebrate those special days. Thank you, Famous Dave's in Mtka!
