I'm sure that there are some purists who would claim that the only place to get decent barbecue is in the South. Since I'm not from the South, I can't compare the barbecue at Famous Dave's with Southern barbecue. It really doesn't matter to me...More

I've been to this place numerous times. It is almost within walking distance from my home. Since I go there a lot, I have eaten lots of different things that are on the menu. Great place for BBQ (beef or pork) as well as burgers....More

I stopped here on my way home from work. Late dinner but the server (Amber) was very polite. I ordered my hamburger well done but it came out pink in the middle. It was ok. Not many people there. Good place.

I've gone to Famous Dave's in Oakton for years, and have found the food to be "OK", but with inconsistent quality. The ribs are generally a good bet, but I've been served other meat that had clearly passed it's prime. Interesting conversation at the office...More

I am from New England, so I will admit right up front that I am not a BBQ expert. However, I do know dried out pork when I eat it. I went on a Wednesday so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that...More
