Great food at low prices. Come hungry (better yet starving) because you are served so much food you won't know what to do with it. I personally would highly recommend the buffalo wings. Just don't plan on leaving as clean as you were when you came in. The place is also decorated with all kinds of old fashioned antiques.

I like this chain. I think it's better than many of the others in a similar price range, but i'm a rib fan anyway. Of course they're not as good as some other privately owned local spots, but as a rule, pretty good. The staff is busy and attentive, so that's another plus.

Chain restaurants are nice sometimes in that you always know what you're going to get. This is no exception. Like all Famous Dave's locations, they offer great bbq with very generous servings. The atmostphere and staff have a character all their own. This is a fun restaurant. My favorite here is the brisket, it just melts in your mouth.

Very good ribs, meaty and don't taste precooked. Wide selection of sauces, all with a good flavor that compliments the pork. Portions are generous and priced reasonably. Atmosphere is rustic and family oriented. My only complaint was that the corn-on-the-cob served with the meal was overcooked and tasted old. Great corn muffins!

Very inexpensive and you always get plenty of food. Sometimes on the weekends the service is little slow, but the food is always hot and the way you ordered it. The beef brisket is the best! The ambiance is very 'down home' with antique signs and memorabilia, and there is always music that you think you would hear at a pig roast. They provide 4 or 5 different kinds of barbeque sauce that you can add to you foods. Some are tangy, some are hot! Awesome place to get carry out too.

I always stop here on the drive back from skiing at Devil's Head in Wisconsin. The food is pretty good and the ambience very fun.

Some of the best ribs you'll find anywhere. An outstanding place to bring the family, but you had better be hungry. The service is very good. Wear clothes that will match what you are going to eat so the spots won't show. A very enjoyable experience.

I love this place. The atmosphere is fun, the service is nice, and most important, the food is excellent. Dave's has a good variety of different BBQ foods for you. Their ribs are the best in Wisconsin. Another plus about the place is that they have family size variety meal with a little bit of everything on there. You will take a second look when they bring the family meals out to you. They actually serve it on a garbage can lid. Dave's also offers a nice variety of barbecue suaces that are sure to please everybody. If you finish your meal and you are clean, you probably did not enjoy this place as much as you should have.
