About Famous Dave’s Barbeque
Few restaurants have achieved as much recognition in a few short years as Famous Dave’s!
Dave’s road to fame began with a strong hankerin’ for fine barbecue folks had ever tasted. He visited rib shacks, roadside joints, every hole-in-the-wall or fancy pants supper club he could, all in search of the most succulent meats, savory seasonings and lipsmackin’ sauces around.
After 25 years of tastin’ and cookin’, Dave’s barbecue just plain knocked the socks off his family and friends. That’s when Dave decided he had to share. He wanted to give all the folks a chance to dig into his best barbecue ever. And in a place as down-home fun and frolicsome as the shacks and clubs he went a callin’ on all those years.
Folks like you made Dave “Famous”. His barbecue and restaurants have been showered in more awards than he has walls to hang ‘em on. Over two hundred for best ribs, best new restaurant, best music, best take-out ad best barbecue joint. Heck, we didn’t even have ta’ bribe the judges.
Fair and square, Famous Dave’s offers great barbecue and fun. But that’s for you to judge, ‘cause after all, you’re our best critics. Come on in, we’ll treat y’all right.
