Food - Everyone enjoyed the food, though the Mac n Cheese had Jalepno so which swapped amongst those at the table. Ribs were meaty and tender. My no sauce ribs were switched with sauced ribs. Service was good, no issues. Ambiance- fun BBQ with fireplace, Elk head etc. read more

Haven't been to FD's for many moons. The ribs and brisket were pretty tasty. Enjoyed the variety of sides offered- 4 stars Note: The coleslaw isn't what it used to be. The flavor was ok but I'm not a fan of soggy cabbage. The downside was the poor service and overinflated menu pricing. Only one server and although she was knowledgeable and nice she was very very slow and did not come around to refill our drinks etc- 2 stars read more

As a surprise for my husband birthday, I ordered the Friends and Family platter along with a side of brisket. He was so surprised and our staff loved it.

Onie was just the best server we've had, at a Famous Dave's. Onie had a funny but friendly personality, gave us some great recommendations & was definitely on top of things. Keep up the 5/5 service Onie! Im a sucker for Famous Dave's. Especially for their cornbread. So moist & so good. Tastes like a cake. So addicting! I ordered the St. Louis Style Ribs. Threw on some of those different sauces on each bite. Devoured it! Beans are good too. Just throw in some spicy sauce, Mmm!.. I like their thick Famous Fries. Especially w/ some BBQ Sauce. read more

Famous Dave's Bar-B-Que - Good good - Barbeque Near Me - Redlands, California

10/10 I hadn't tried this location before and I loved it. The food was very fast, hot, and the flavor was incredible. It reminded me of my grandmother's BBQ. I had a bread pudding that I absolutely loved. But what I can't overlook is the service. When you come to this location, ask for Mario. His charming attitude and attentiveness ensure that you and your family have the best possible experience. He's the best service you can get. read more

Chain restaurants are pretty much always the same, and this location is no different really. Food & stuff is good and even the take out counter food & service is quick as well. The ambiance was a bit dark but maybe it was just the weather making it seem that way, it was a few weeks ago when those rain storms were blowing in. Service was nice, but short. Prices vary on worth. I personally don't think the ribs are worth it but my husband disagrees. I honestly did like the chicken though. Far better than Lucille's where I got food poisoning everytime we ate there. Would go again. No real negatives or stand out positives. read more

Just had a delicious pulled pork sandwich. Best pulled pork I have ever had in a restaurant and barbecue sauces were yummy. Service was excellent--friendly and efficient. We loved this place! read more

Came for dinner with the family and chose to order the Family and Friends Feast. Was able to substitute the chicken for the brisket. Might I say it was a small amount of brisket for a $7 upgrade. My favorite thing about this meal was the honey butter cornbread! The ranch was also delicious especially with the mozzarella sticks (not pictured). I got a cheese pulls out of them so it was a win. read more

We had my nephew's graduation dinner here with a party of 14, and our server Shaun) was outstanding. Managing a large group is never easy, but he made it look effortless. He was friendly, entertaining, and patient while taking everyone's order. I appreciated how organized he was. He started by taking everyone's drink orders, then moved on to appetizers, and finally our meals. Everything flowed smoothly, and no one felt rushed. As someone who appreciates LEAN principles, I was impressed by how efficiently he managed our table. His organized approach kept everything moving, making the experience enjoyable for our entire group. Great service like this truly enhances a special celebration. Thank you for helping make my nephew's graduation dinner such a memorable one! read more

We were well taken care of by Onie on a recent visit to Famous Dave's. We had a table of six and all got a variety of plates. I personally tried the Fish and Chips and liked it very much. They were not crowded during our visit so we got seated and served right away. The ambience is very casual, but comfortable as well. read more

Excellent service and food! My large party came in for a birthday celebration and the waitresses/staff provided exceptional hospitality. The ambiance of the restaurant was very relaxed and family friendly. We understood that us being a large party, wait times would be much longer but the waitresses made our experience fun by playing "food bingo"!! The quality of the food was excellent & delicious! We got the three meat combo to share between two people and it was very filling & tasty! Definitely recommend this restaurant for anyone who is looking for quality food & service! read more

This location does not participate or honor any of their specials. John, their general Manager was rude and said they didn't need to participate on ANY of their specials because this franchise owner didn't want to. Please beware and don't waste your time if you've signed up for their app or text messages. I attached a photo. read more

I've been living in Redlands for a couple of years now and I'm kicking my butt for not going here sooner!! Sacrilege! I absolutely believe that my experience was wholeheartedly enhanced by our server, Sean/Shawn. You can tell a man who loves his job because he couldn't wait to share any and all information about Famous Dave's and the chemical process of smoking rib. It was quite enthralling to hear him speak!! Sean convinced us to try the Burnt Ends as our appetizer. We finished that before he completed his rounds and checked up on us haha, which was every few seconds or so - he's very light of his feet! He convinced us to get the ribs-n-meat meat combo. They're known for their ribs! So we got ribs and the Texas brisket. OH MY GOODNESS. Literally to DIE FOR! Dave's BBQ ruined all bbq for me. Sean was so quick to have our needs met. He really made sure we were comfortable. He answered all our questions. It's so easy to go into an establishment and be treated like a number but Sean made sure we were seen and heard as humans. I can't wait to share Famous Dave's with my friends and family!! read more

Famous Dave's Bar-B-Que - Our rib-n-meat combo. We ordered the Texas brisket. - Barbeque Near Me - Redlands, California

Olie was super attentive and helpful!! She gave amazing recommendations to first comers like us :)

This was my second time at a Famous Dave's. Both visits were good. The food is delicious. They even gave us a couple extra ribs because the ribs served on our plate were a little short. We loved the appetizer buffalo wings. The blue cheese was yummy. The service is very accommodating and there were plenty of paper towels, wet towelettes, and a sink in the main dining area to wash hands. If you don't mind a loud dining environment it's a good place to get some BBQ. read more

We had a nice dining experience today. We were sat in a timely manner by the hostess. Our server Onie is always friendly with a smile on her face. She took our order and made it a point to come and check on us while we waited for our food. We order the ribs with 2 choices of meat. The ribs were cooked just right very juicy, the burnt ends and brisket were very tender and juicy. The individual sides are now double the size and shareable. We ordered the mashed potatoes and Mac n cheese both were seasoned just right. The corn bread was good as usual. The restaurant was clean, my table was not sticky as it had been in the past. I see a difference in the quality of the food. We definitely will be back soon. read more

I call in today for some info on catering services and the gentleman that answered the phone was so rude. I even informed the call was cutting off and wasn't able to hear him completely. Definitely need an improvement in Phone etiquette. read more

We had famous Dave's caster an event and we're so impressed by the brisket! It was remarkable. The corn on the cob was not worth it, the cornbread was good.

I frequent the Famous Dave's on 27509 W Lugonia in Redlands . IDK Perhaps they are going thru some things. I walked in today for a to go order. Large Chili & ribs specifically asking the lady taking my order if the chillie comes with cornbread.. she replied that it does. I then asked for an additional cornbread indicating I need 2 pieces. Since no one consistently goes over the bagged orders anymore, I guess, I left believing I had what was requested and paid for. Instead we found we were shorted a cornbread. I had no intention of driving back to get another but had no thought that I didn't have the requested order .. I called and spoke with a nameless mgr, I guess, as folk don't identify themselves anymore. I related the issue of the missed item and instead of acknowledging w/ offer to fix the error.. I was told my order does not come with cornbread and to get that I would have to order salad.. I stated I would think the person taking my order and my money would have known this when I asked and she replied twice that it comes with cornbread.. because I don't work there? The representative replied yes, she should have known, sorry about that...silence & crickets and nothing further to say.. My badd for not knowing correctly what comes with the food items ordered..and the info from the server was incorrect, my badd for not knowing the on phone mgrs name.. my badd for the unprofessional training on how resolutions should be handled with order errors, my badd for going in ordering and paying my money and not having enough of what I needed when I got home.. My badd for bothering the mgr with my concern & running into that d--n brick wall. Professionalism in services you pay for is not to be expected anymore ..and when you express concern for errors.. folks act like it's your fault for not knowing ..if you get professional service, it's above and beyond for your money..I'll be mindful in the future and will remind my friends and family that in the Redlands Famous Dave's restaurant.. on Lugonia, it's a "My Badd" situation and proceed with caution if you proceed at all.. if you live in the area.. eh.. maybe it's conveniently located, if not, it's not good enough to look it up and go .. Oh no! What could improve?: customer service attitude, putting staff on the line that actually know the menu .. Mgmt that when errors are brought to attention do not make paying customers feel like it's a customer My Badd situation.. and perhaps some hospitality training for those serving in a hospitality business position.. Do Better Famous Dave's!! read more
