   Since we did not order $200 in food, what we received did not look at all like the pictures. Serving sizes for sides are small. The open faced sandwiches to be served on Texas Toast were served on slices of bread. I left a sizeable tip for the great waiter we had but that had nothing to do with the food itself.

   Feast for 2 ribs and brisket came sauced…BBQ no no! Why provide a table full of sauce options when you serving a huge dinner plate sauced? On the positive, our server was on point 😎

   The pulled BBQ Chicken salad does not need dressing. It was too soggy.

   The rib tips are inconsistent. Some weeks they’re moist and seasoned well, or like last night where they were dry and closer to jerky than meaty rib tips. Very disappointed.

   Famous Dave's - AuroraResponded on February 7, 2022Mark - We're sorry to hear that. We pride ourselves on our legendary BBQ, and strive to make sure every order lives up to the hype. We'll discuss these issues with our team, and hope you'll consider giving Famous Dave's a second chance.

    The food quality has really gone down. The service wasn’t any better. We had one drink the whole night. We weren’t asked once if we needed more drinks or if the food was good. Only time we saw the waitress was when we were ready to leave and needed a box.

    My childs food wasn't cooked all the way. My food got cold while i had to wait for several minutes for extra plates. I had them remake my child's food it didn't come back out until we were already done eating. Honestly i wasn't impressed with the overall experience and won't be going back.

    We sat in the bar and again enjoyed our dining experience. Bar tenders were busy but engaging and service was within acceptable timeframe. Our orders were made, again within acceptable time. Burnt Ends came out quickly (sooo good) and soon followed by the dinner. No complaints.

    How does a Bbq place run out of ribs? Disappointed we ordered something else, but as we left, were surprised to see a table in the bar area enjoying an order of ribs? Upon asking we were told you had magically received the ribs just moments before after telling us there would be none until tomorrow. We could have waited too.

    Our first dinner at Famous Dave's since COVID hit felt like a guilty pleasure! Our table was ready at the time of our reservation, and service was prompt. Although we had enjoyed dinner there before, everything tasted fresher and even more delicious this time. The Feast for Two is, in essence, four meals for us with leftovers and, thus, a terrific deal. Thanks, y'all. We'll be back!

    Arrived and were told the system was down but it would take a moment longer. Ordered drinks. Server came back and to us and said it was going to be a little longer to get drinks. Friends arrived and no one came over to check on them. Whatever happened to using paper and pencil. We left.

    It’s about average for a barbecue place. I’d recommend sharing one of the feast options with several people so everyone gets to try it all. Nothing blew me away, but it was all decent.

    Ribs were overcooked and dry. Buns on sandwiches were obviously left out for too long and were distractedly dry. This was our second visit to Famous Dave's (first was at Stapleton a few years ago) and we won't be back to this location.

    We were seated right away since we had a reservation at 4, waitress was friendly took our order brought Drinks, and it was one hour and 10 minutes later we got our food, about 40 minutes in she explained that she had had a tiff with the line Cook, and then she said her ticket was lost , then she brought a paper plate full of old potato chips , the ribs were dry it was obviously a mass production of food shoved into small cups will never go there again.

    I would would probably recommend, the food was good. Not quite as good as I remembered. The server was VERY nice and efficient. With the openness it was pretty noisy and made conversation a little difficult. Over all, GOOD, not great. Would probably go again.

    Jared did an excellent job. We had a party of 6 + an infant. He kept our drinks filled. When it was time for our food to be served, I felt we all got our food at the same. He had 3 of his coworkers helping serve, it was great! I felt no one was left waiting for their food! ❤️
