The food was great. Delicious even. Great staff, even guide me through the menu and explained. However, when I was seated I noticed a smell coming from the booth furniture. Musky and old dirt. I was not pleased with the smell. Further more since I was seated next to the window I looked and noticed a good layer of dust and dead insects. Great food, but I don't see myself returning to Famous Dave's. Famously dirty to me.

Of the big chain restaurants, Famous Dave's ranks as one of my favorites. There are some smaller local BBQ places that I like better for their meats and how they smoke them, but nobody has the BBQ sauces that I like as much as the ones from Famous Dave's. I regularly make trips to Famous Dave's to purchase a collection of bottles of sauce. Their Devil's Spit is my absolute favorite. You have to like spicy in order to like devil's spit. I get a variety of the other sauces for the rest of the family. My wife accuses me of smothering everything she makes with Devil's Spit. There may be some truth to that statement. All of their food is of the highest quality. I have never had to send anything back to the kitchen. My only complaint would be the price. Not outrageous but definitely on the high side. But if high quality and consistency our your concerns, don't go anywhere else.

My first visit here... We were sat immediately, though it was busy! Our server (Xander) was very polite & attentive & quick. Not only him, but a couple others came by & helped out too. The taste was very authentic, southern comfort foods. And I'm from the South, so I know! Portion sizes were very filling. The atmosphere is lively on a Saturday night. Lighting was just right. Overall, I would recommend it!

So my girlfriend and I went here on Saturday night 2/24 and arrived about 5:25 pm. It was already unusually busy and we were told it would be around a twenty minute wait. It was hard not to notice a fairly large amount of empty tables including patio seating that could've been used had they been properly staffed. After waiting around 20-25 minutes we were finally seated in a back room of the restaurant. We waited perhaps ten minutes for a server to bring us something as mundane as water but not only did they not arrive, there wasn't any sign of anyone to even flag down. A party of six arrived and was seated next to us and about five minutes later a pleasant server appeared for them ready to accommodate their every need. At this point I began to wonder if we were invisible. We left shortly after this fiasco but I did inform the hostess that an additional two seats had immediately opened up in the back. She clearly heard me and seemed to pay no never mind to our dissatisfaction. To be fair, the establishment was under siege from a multitude of Cubs fans from a recently completed spring training game, however, I'd rather be told it would be a forty-five minute wait than be played for a sucker. Pity that the Cubs fans they so desire to attract in the short term will be long gone while the local folk will still be remembering their treatment here for years to come.

The service was good. The waiter really knowledgeable and entertaining. The food was great! If you haven't eaten here you should put it on your list
