    Chicken tender platter
    Deborah H.

    Husband and I gave Dave's a try, he was craving ribs. Walked in and was cheerfully greeted and taken to a booth. Our waitress came right over and greeted us and took our drink order. Husband ordered full slab of baby back ribs and I ordered the chicken tenders. Our dinners came in a timely fashion and were piping hot. Chicken tenders were delicious and a good portion, baked beans tasty and mashed potatoes hot and tasty also. Meal came with a cornbread muffin, yum. I ordered ranch dipping sauce and it was very good. Husband was disappointed with his ribs because they needed to be cooked longer and therefore were tuff, not the fall off the bone kind. For 31.00 it was a letdown. He liked his sides and the service was excellent. Dave you need to cook your ribs longer please! Still, we had a nice time and I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner.

    First time at Famous Dave's, conveniently located in the same shopping center as JOANN Fabric and Christmas Tree Shop. I placed an online pickup order for the Iris' Down Home Fried Chicken Platter -White Meat Only. The price increased to $20.99 as of December 2022. Some online menus state that it still costs $16.99. The platter comes with four pieces of fried chicken, cornbread, and two sides. I chose the french fries and beans. I also ordered a cup of chili ($4.99). The fried chicken was hot and right out of the fryer. The skin was crispy, and the meat was tender and juicy. The chili was delicious and slightly spicy. You can request that it comes with cheddar cheese and a side of onions at no extra cost. I like that the fries don't have added salt, but they could be crispier. The beans and cornbread were on the sweet side but good. My friend preferred if those sides had more spice than sweetness. Delicious southern food made to order. I would eat here again.

    Famous Dave's is a classic chain to grab some yummy BBQ favorites! Everything at Famous Dave's is served up quickly & piping hot. The decor brings me right to Texas. Please be sure to get all the staples: ribs, mashed potatoes, corn casserole, cornbread, and don't forget the dessert!

    Egg rolls !!! Do try !

    Let's just start by saying ... BRAVO to Sam & Mel at the Taylor location! Their service and attention they showed me was outstanding and it's greatly appreciated. Customer service is lacking big time in most places so I applaud these ladies double time! We all have our quirks but like most people over the past several years I've become more obsessive regarding cleanliness of establishments, businesses etc. I'm a straight up bonafide germaphobe (within reason), proud distant relative to Monk! lol ...so cleanliness of establishments means a lot to me. Sam and Mel both were attentive to those needs and kept checking on me to make sure all was well. The food was outstanding, please DO try the egg rolls (if still on menu) great flavor! A big shout out to Sam and Mel, I'll see you guys soon enough!

    I always liked famous Dave's but it seem to just be like another place. Nothing has changed but the food is always good. I was dying for some great friend chicken and cat fish. And I got Just that.

    Grandmas 89th Birthday was made even more special by the wonderful waitstaff who went above and beyond today treating her like a Queen on her special day

    Catfish, rib tips, mashed potatoes, corn, and cornbread  It would have been amazing if it came out the kitchen hot

I met some friends at the bar and we had a good time and then we moved to a table. The way staff was cool from the bar to the table and they were very attentive. You will come in and there's parking everywhere on the side and the back of the building. I parked all the way in the back of the parking lot and walked up and got greeted immediately when I got to the front. I went to the bar, sat down, and was immediately given menus and water so at least they were on their job when it came to timeliness and customer service. I appreciated that . I really only came for drinks but some friends I was with came for food. That means that I can't rank the food at the end of the day but at the same time it looked really good . We ended up having to move some tables together and it was not an issue to them. They were very nice about it. I thought that was cool that they let us adjust some things since we had more than what we were intended to have as far as people went . The decor is pretty cool because it's based around the theme of cars and car parts. If you know anything about Ford, you know that it's going to be heavily auto-related and that's a really cool vibe. The aesthetics are very good . Overall it was a good experience. I had already eaten so I didn't have any food but I probably would to go back and try some food but as far as vibes go, it was a good selection.

I personally really love the ice strip that they have around the entire bar - it's an area to set your drinks that keeps them icy cold for the whole dining experience. The Happy Hour specials are amazing and the draft selection is always on point! The bartenders are wonderful and provide excellent service any time of day. I'm even more impressed now that the manager/owner replied to my review. And in such timely fashion! Excellent customer care all around. I will be visiting again soon!

The confirmation text didn't come through until we were already inside, which might be bad reception, but it almost cost us the table. Then they sat us right across from the back kitchen entrance. Banging, yelling, and an open doorway into the kitchen. Off-putting, especially with better seating clearly open. The food keeps the rating up. I did not expect a wings place, but the smoked wings were my favorite, right amount of crispy with good smoke. The sauce list is long and I couldn't pick a favorite. The ranch tasted house-made and it was amazing. The chikin soho was the other standout. Honey ginger glaze, chili dijon slaw, and pickles that all work together. Misses: the brisket nachos needed fresh guac and actual brisket, since there was barely any. The 6 cheese mac was fine but not worth ordering again. Prices were right for what it is, a bistro concept. It's in Wayne, which surprised me since I didn't know spots like this existed out here. Wide enough menu that I'll be back. Next time I'm speaking up about the seating.
