Very slow service and chicken was rubbery and tasteless...we were comped $5 on our bill which is better than nothing but we won't be back. 

Business response:

MIa, we are truly sorry to hear that your visit was less than "Famous". Please contact General Manager, Jeff Walbert, at (309) 664-0044. He would like to further discuss the details of your dining experience and make things right.

They catered my wedding in April and they did a great job. They had very affordable prices and very helpful staff. I enjoyed going to the taste testings eating their delicious food. They were very flexible and willing to work with me. They were even willing to go back to the store if we needed more food or drinks. The venue was close so that helped too. The staff even asked the groom and myself if we needed anything so that we didn't have to go through the line again. I had a lot of my guests compliment on the food as well. 

Business response:

Liz .... we are honored to have been a part of your BIG day. Thank you for choosing Famous Dave's BBQ!

The first time I ate there, it was phenomenal. The last time was not as good and of course I was chasing after the first experience. This experience fell flat. Food still good but not great. Inconsistent. 

Business response:

Julie, we are sorry to hear we fell short of your expectations on your last visit. Our General Manager, Dave Kyle, would like to discuss the details with you. Please contact Dave at your convenience at (309) 664-0044. Thank you!

The food is always outstanding! Dave Kyle and our waitress Aimee went out of their way to make sure our dinner was "famous", and it was! Will drive a few extra miles to this location any time since I live between Bloomington and Peoria. Thanks guys, I'd give you 10 stars if I could! 

Business response:

We are glad to hear the food was great, but we are extremely unhappy to hear your service was less than "Famous". Please contact our General Manager, Dave Kyle, at (309) 664-0044. He would like to further discuss the details of your visit. Thank You!

Meat seems not to be smoked long enough. I had the corn on the cob .It was leftover & reheated. Terrible. Service is better. 

Business response:

Thank you for letting us know about your visit to Famous Dave's. We will certainily review the smoking procedures with our staff and make sure the smokes are being done properly. We never re-use corn-on-the-cob; however it is held in water after it is cooked, which may have led to its "leftover" appearance. We will make sure they are cooking fresh corn more often throughout the day, which should fix this problem. Thank you for noticing our efforts to provide better service to all our guests, and rest assured, the other matte... read more
