| - I would love to bump Famous Daves (FD) up to 4 stars. Even for someone who isn't crazy about BBQ, I can appreciate the great flavors you get from some good smokey BBQ. I really like FD's beef brisket and salt water catfish. The brisket is perfectly cooked encompassing all of the natural flavors of the cut of meat. The catfish, while small, are seasoned perfectly. Corn muffins are pretty damn good to be restaurant. Very buttery, moist and lighted toasted. Services generally has always been good.
Now, where I have to knock off some points is their banana pudding. When they do have it in stock, I always get it because it is that damn good. Absolutely amazing. The only person I know that makes great banana pudding is my auntie. However, considering the non-instant kind of banana pudding is time consuming, she can't always make me a batch. It's nice to have a restaurant in town that serves it and serves it well.
The last three times I've dined at FD, they were complete out. One time, we even asked the waiter if they had any and we were told yes. Well, when it comes time to order it, we are told they were out. What?! How can this be so!?
Last time we dined, we (again) asked the waiter if they had any. He said yes. OK. About 15 minutes later, he tells us there was only enough to make 1 more serving. Our table had to share it.
I am not sure how many batches they make during a day but I would recommend they make more. The last three times we've came, it as during general dinner hours so it is not like we are coming too late in the day and are just missing out. It seems that they simply do not make enough. Their banana pudding is the most popular dessert. That being said, why not make extra when there is high demand?
Also, they got rid of the apples. Not sure why when they were very popular.
