(In)Famous Dave's

We recently read an unfavorable review of Famous Dave's on madisonatoz.com and it got us thinking...what is our review of the BBQ house?

We used to go a fair amount, but haven't been there in a while, so this is based on past visits. hmm- maybe it is a review itself that we don't want to go again for a fresh visit and review?

The long and short- the BBQ wings (esp hot) are great and the bread pudding is marvelous and we get both every time. Corn muffins, fries and mashed potatoes are good sides. The green beans we would agree are leathery and taste like they are from a can. Not great for the price and fact that if you get the beans, you don't get the mashed potatoes or fries! The Kahlua brownie that we have had only once was more of a cake and was dry.

Prices can be a bit steep, especially for platters, but the lunch sandwiches are well priced and taste good (especially the Georgia chopped pork sandwich), but have pretty generic supermarket buns (how hard is it to get some real buns?)

All in all? We recommend Dave's for the wings, the sandwiches and the platters (but you'll spend a bit more). Don't get the beans and definitely get the bread pudding! We also appreciate the roll of paper towels on the table- plenty of clean hand wipers at your fingertips!
