Justin RobinettDecember 22, 2016LOVE Famous Dave's. It's a must stop when flying out of MDW 25min away from Rental return. $1 pints were amazing.
Try the lunch special (ends at 4 pm) to get a combo meal for a good price.
ᴡ RomeroJuly 26, 2015The feast for two was well worth it !!! The lemonade was strong just like I love it I will definitely go there again!!💜
William QuiñonesFebruary 8, 2020Good ribs, the burnt end were squares instead of brisket ends actually.
Leonard WinstonDecember 9, 2011The St. Louis-Style Spareribs are great. (the southside ribs are good BUT I'll stick with the st Louis)- Angela VaughnMarch 11, 2013The burnt ends do not taste as good as Oklahoma Joe's in Kansas City or Q's in LaGrange, IL.

@JessicaLaShawn www.JessicaLaShawn.orgJune 5, 2012Pay attention to the signs they have cheaper prices posted than what's on the menu
