In Short – Eat at this chain and you'll swear the Mason-Dixon line moved to Saskatchewan. The weathered-looking wooden walls of Dave's shacks are decked out with roadside signs and cute pig paintings. You stand in line to order, then take a numbered wooden pig to your table. The sandwiches and platters (including Texas beef brisket and Georgia chopped pork) are filling, but favorites include a mess of St. Louis-style ribs, sticky with Dave's own award-winning sauce.

Don't believe the hype

by cinglestar

For the life of me I haven't figured out why there are so many Famous Dave's in Minnesota. I have had the rib sandwich platter, the baby back ribs (full) and St. Louis style (full) meals and remain to be impressed. The only thing going for them is that they seem to have a monopoly on ribs and that's why they get business. The staff has always been friendly and the restaurant always appears clean. The prices are VERY high for the product and truly keeps me from frequenting Famous Dave's more often. If you're feeling like ribs and have an alternative - i'd pick the alternative.

  • Pros: quick turnaround time on food delivery
