Famous Dave's Bar-B-Que offers ample parking, a welcoming atmosphere, and a variety of dishes to choose from. While their classic BBQ menu and lunch combos are decent, don't expect top-notch championship worthy ribs or briskets. The Saint Louis ribs can be tough and dry, and the baby backs are somewhat dry too. I'd avoid the burnt ends and brisket, Im not even sure what they are here. However, the sauces, sides, and cornbread are great. Service can be slow, even when the restaurant is not busy. Despite this, whether dining in or taking out, Famous Dave's is still worth a try.

Food was a bit bland but the atmosphere and service was very good. Sweet tea could be a little sweeter.

Came in for a nice dinner, and had a wonderful time with my husband and kids. We were greeted immediately when we came in by their lovely manager Melissa who accommodated us with a booth. Our server Rachel was wonderful, told us about the menu options and made some recommendations that we gladly went ahead and ordered. The other manager on duty, CT came over and introduced himself, to make sure we had been enjoying ourselves, and were being properly taken care of, which we most definitely were. Quite the fun character he is! Overall great service. You can tell the managers and staff really care about giving great customer service. Our visit was very enjoyable, and this was our first time at Famous Daves, quite the impression was made.

I ordered to have the order taken to my car and I was waiting 20 minutes and nothing came out, I had to go in and ask for my order and it turned out that they already had it before and if I'm not going to ask I would have waited much longer, have more present that please.The food is really delicious, the ribs, the chicken and the sausage.

Our waitress saved this experience. The food is horrible, the bar is so depleted it's a joke. The wait staff is left too making up reasons why they don't have anything left.Obviously closing soon, or, please save your staff and stop making them make things up for you.I wish I knew her name. She was amazing.Famous Dave's is not, and will not be famous soon.

Ordered the All American feast I’m not a fan of the Wilbur beans very bland the ribs were the best out of the meats and my most enjoyable part of the meal was the cornbread muffin. The kicker for me was the portion of the banana pudding I purchased which was $7 + tax that was a spoonful and a half. Very disappointing, I know if I would have dined in this would not have been served to my table. So my review basically is to review the take out order service.

My server was exceptional, as well as very attentive and polite. If you are looking for humor, and great customer service I suggest asking for Rachel! She was very knowledgeable of the menu, as well as surrounding entertainment venues. Everything she did was with quick precision, she is very in touch with her customers and provides an individually unique and memorable experience. Consider us her new regulars! We enjoyed our time at Famous Daves, with the best server we've had in years. Our food was Perfect, and it was in a very timely delivery to our table. The manager CT also stopped by to greet us, and added value to our experience! We will be returning! The environment was also very clean and the music added the perfect ambiance.

Amazing food. Best bbq in colorado. Seriously. All others have no compare. (This is sad but true as colorado sucks for bbq) if you like a Kansas city style bbq this is the place to go.

It took us a while to sit down. I recommend that you don't take more than 10 minutes because it took them a while to sit down. The food was good. The service was not very good. The atmosphere was a little pleasant.

Went there for dinner with my friend who had never been there before. He was vastly disappointed in his meal. The portions were small and the meat had no flavor. I had the brisket and burnt tips neither of them had any smoke flavor. I was very disappointed in my meal. The service was great the restaurant was very clean just the food was a disappointment.
