The meal for two or three or more..
James M.

Everything was very very good but the ribs were very tiny and they were chewy. I would not suggest the ribs but the brisket in the pulled pork and the potato wedges were very very good. Beans are good. Muffins are the best

Bread Pudding before assembled
Karen L.

I came to test out this famous Bread Pudding, and just as I assumed, it was just fine. I took it to go, and it came in a cute box with reheating directions, which I followed to a T. As with most bread puddings, you can't go wrong! The texture of the bread pudding itself was a little soggier than I had wanted, but the flavor was pretty decent. I enjoyed the golden raisins. Let's talk about the sauce, I found the pecans to be a tiny bit bitter. I think had the pecans been candied, it would have solved that problem. The pralines sauce was tasty with the bread pudding. Ice cream was a small individual serving of Kemp's Vanilla. All in all, I was not disappointed. This is a standard bread pudding.

Food wise, it's good. But, watch out when ordering online. I used Yelp to order our food online. When my brother went to pick our order even showed the order tracking and details, our food was not ready even though the app stated our order is ready to be picked up. The staff literally gave our order to random Grubhub which they claim with the same name who ordered also. Famous Dave's should be more strict when dealing with pick ups.

Texas Beef Brisket from Famous Dave's Rochester, MN restaurant.  Is this Minnesota's version of beef brisket?

I'll start with the positives: The food was ready promptly at the time stated on the online order confirmation. The ribs were fall of the bone delicious and slathered with sauce that made Dave Famous. The sides (garlic mashed potatoes, fries, mac and cheese, coleslaw), were all up to par. All of these things deserve the 3 stars. The beef brisket is what costs you 2 stars. It was pale, gelatinous, and didn't come close to resembling beef. Take a look at the pic provided and tell me what you see.

I love their sauce, and the pork is really good too. Service was friendly and prompt. My only complaint is the table was a bit sticky.
