Far better than other thematically classic rib bars I've been to! A bit pricey, but well worth it in portions AND quantity! Would recommend to anyone wanting that country-esque bar scene!
Nice place, excellent food and great server which my family enjoy it. Thank you and will recommend it with our friends and relatives
Food really tastes like barbecue. The decor feels like I’m in someone’s shed but if that’s what they’re going for, it’s cool.
Went for lunch today. Food was soooo good and flavorful! VERY fast and friendly service. Also excellent prices.
Next time definitely go for a dinner!
Been here a handful of times before and Famous Dave's is hands down my favourite BBQ restaurant in Winnipeg!!! Friendly staff, fantastic food, large portions. You really get your moneys worth!
I wanted to thank you and your entire AMAZING staff, for an absolutely wonderful evening last night! The service was impeccable!!! The staff was VERY accommodating with our large party of 13, you made us feel at home, everyone was so friendly and courteous, even on such a busy night (people were lined up outside waiting to get in) and the food was exceptional, generous portions! The Legendary BBQ Feast was HUGE, the 5 of us who shared it, couldn't even finish it, even though it was so delicious! The chicken and ribs were the best, the meat was so tasty and tender, with the right amount of caramelizing, it just fell right of the bone and the brisket just melted in your mouth, my husband kept raving about it, all night! Everything was perfectly done, right down to wishing my daughter a Happy Birthday, she was so thrilled with her birthday desert, you made her day! Thank you, can't wait to see you again!
Got there around 5PM on at Saturday thinking I would beat the rush but there was already a line-up. I was disappointed that they don't take reservations between 5 and 8 PM but I gets that shows they're popular. The wait for a table was only 20min and that gave us a chance to sit in the bar order drinks and look at the menu. Once we were seated we knew exactly what we wanted.
We ordered the legendary feast ($80) for 4 people and it was great! It had ribs, pulled pork, roast chicken, corn, beans, and everyone's favourite, corn bread 😁 everything was delicious and there was so nigh food we even had leftovers. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the fries but I never really like fries anyways. I was amazed they had the platter out in like 15 min after we ordered. Also ordered a margarita and mudslide which were OK.
I like how they have everything ready at the table. There's paper towels, wet naps, all the sauces fully stocked.
This is my favourite BBQ places that I have tried so far and I would highly recommend it.
Definitely the one place in the city I would go if I want to feel the truly authentic Southern-style BBQ fest.
I ate here about a month after I got back from my travels to the Southern states and I was surprised at the resemblance.
I would go with a bunch of people and order the sampler platter which was probably designed to feed a small army. That way you get all the variety and keep the costs down.
E xcellent! My wife and I are big fans of Famous Dave's in Fargo but did not expect much here. We have found that US franchises usually fall short when they come to the Peg. HUGE SURPRISE!!! Excellent value for the amount of food, excellent quality and the same quirky fun service from the staff. Five stars all the way! I actually found them better than in tbe US.
I am not a huge fan of ribs but I figured I would have to try here. My dad loved his meal and so did my mom. I liked the ribs but could not finish them. I was really pleased with the mac and cheese, grilled pineapple, and corn bread muffins. Would return to try the meal served to you on a trash can lid? (some sort of special-sounds fun)
This is hands down my favourite BBQ restaurant in town!! In terms of food and price, Famous Dave's is better than Loveys BBQ.
If you ever go to Famous Dave's, you must order the Legendary BBQ feast! Whether you're there on your own, with a friend or with a group, you must get this feast! The feast comes with a bit of everything, including a choice of Texas beef briskets or Georgia chopped pork (get the beef briskets!!), St Louise Style spareribs, roasted chicken, corn bread, Wilbur beans, potato wedges, corns, coleslaw and toasts. The portion of food being served will feed more than the recommended serving so be prepared to have leftovers!
Famous Dave's is a solid 30 mins drive from where I live but I still go there on a regular basis! I think that's nuff said.
Pretty impressive decent service and a large amount of food. I will be back A pretty big menu and love their beef with all the sauces. The waitress did a good job of explaining the menu and making suggestions
If you`re a hungry carnivore, then this is the dinner place for you! Tons of meat selections that are brought and carved at your table. Lots of sides to choose from. Did find the food quite salty, but the accompanying drinks were delightful! You need to try the one in the pineapple. The price for the dinner all you can eat is a little steep, but definitely an experience you should have if you`re going anyway. There is a separate menu for downstairs that includes individual items.
WOW! Epic food and even more epic service. Great ambience. The lounge is the perfect place to watch the game, enjoy great eats and a solid selection of local IPAs. Highly recommended. #supportlocalwinnipeg #localgood2go #greateats
Meat , meat and more meat. If you are in the mood for having a massive quantity of chicken, pork and beef and beef and beef, this is a great place to go. Everything is served at your table too no standing up to wait in line. Great service. Great atmosphere and all the cuts of meat were deliciously well seasoned. They should offer more rare cooked cuts because everything is basically cooked well done. So overcooked a bit in my opinion but nitpicking here. I loved it.
The meat was awesome like usual. The vegetables....not so much. They need more variety for cooked vegetables. They have a few salads, but should have more. Just my opinion. I go for the meat, my wife needs more variety than just a variety of meat. Still great place to go for a special occasion.
