Cindy RMarch 21, 2019Burgers. Just delicious! Download the app for a free burger or sandwich and earn bones. Great deal.
Racheal🙊🍹January 7, 2011I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys spicy, southern or bbq food. Lots of choices. They even have catfish fingers which were excellent. Also, actual sweet tea and not rasberry sweet tea like m
Great food and drinks, But make sure you bring a warm sweatshirt even in the middle of a heat wave. They keep it way too cold in here.- Janean StoverFebruary 12, 2013I just absolutely love Famous Dave's Rotisserie chicken!! :) And on top of that their brisket is awesome!!

Try the new citrus grilled glazed pork tenderloin - it's like a flavor explosion in your mouth - really yummy.
- The country fried chicken with all white meat are EXCELLENT! Yummy :-)
