    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.

    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!

    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!

    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

Gwen said she would try and she and the kitchen came through!! Gwen also said if we needed more do not be afraid to ask. We were satiated with those 6 or 7 wings. Unfortunately we only bought my wife a soft drink and our bill was $117 and the raffle tickets are every $40 spent so we only received two of them for three of us. Nyla was great as I could not find pepper on the sauce bar to season our hangar steaks. Nyla went into the kitchen and grabbed some for me, as well as adding an equal amount of salt to the sauce bowl as I wanted both for seasoning the meat. Lina, at the front desk, helped out with questions about the raffle tickets, the snow crab legs free special on April 15 their one year anniversary of the Taylor location being open. Gwen was great and kept us in clean grills, brought extra butter for our hangar steaks as requested, and kept our pitcher of water filled. She had two mishaps right beside our table. First she accidentally spilled a cup of ice for us ( her tray had a LOT on it ). Later replacing it she dropped a second cup of ice water next to me as well. Gwen said she bragged to a coworker she had not dropped anything for a long time after the first mishap recently. I regaled her about when I bragged I never spilled my giant 64 ounce Speedway cup wedged between my front seats to a coworker. That day and the following two days it spilled three times. I told her it was GOD's humor to our pridefulness. So when she spilled the second cup, I managed to refrain from saying she was due one more spill. I hope she does not have a third spill today nor soon. Anyway, the food is top notch as always! This is our home KPOT! Anqi is great as always too.

Most locations have a fast casual setup. I was impressed by the number of flavors and sides available. It can be hard to narrow down, so my friend and I went for a few different sauces: Classic Buffalo, Honey Chipotle, Garlic Parmesan, and Berry BBQ (seasonal.) Wait time for the food is about 20 minutes, which I think is reasonable. I've tried a ton of wings spots over time, so I'm pretty critical when it comes to ranking them. These were good, but not extraordinary. They were cooked well. The skin was crispy without drying out the meat inside. I enjoyed all of the sauces. I was definitely skeptical of the Berry BBQ; I'm glad I tried it but probably wouldn't reorder. Overall, this spot is good. I'd rank the wings higher than other chain restaurants but wouldn't seek it out above other restaurants in the Detroit area.
