If I could do it all over again, I would!

My husband and I were looking for amazing food for our wedding. That was the most important part to us. I ended up putting an estimated number and menu on the website and I got a quote e mailed to me. I would get little reminder calls and e mails asking if there was anything I needed or if I had any questions at all. I got them enough to remind myself but not to many to be annoying at all. I ended up going into the restaurant and sitting down to talk with someone about what I wanted. I ended up getting everything I wanted for way less then I thought I was going to spend! The full service was excellent, everyone I had dealt with was super friendly and genuinely wanted to help me. The food was perfect! I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience and all of my quests were so excited when they smelled the food!

Excellent Value and Rave Reviews

Everyone complimented the food, it was a far more affordable than other options.
The brisket was by far the favorite.

Famous Daves exceeded my expectations! I knew the food would be great however the service and punctuality of our delivery person was outstanding!

Famous Dave's service and quality exceeded my customers' expectations. Five phone calls and two new business deals more than paid for the meal and service. Thanks again!

I have to give 5 of 5 stars to Famous Daves. They were very helpful and curteous when I placed my order and later, when I had to change my order. They delievered a few minutes early, so I was not stuck wondering when they were going to get here. The food arrived hot and exact to our order with all the utensils provided to serve the food for our event. Definately a 5 star and will order again for other events. Highly recommended!

They come in, set up, serve, take down and go...it's seamless! I would recommend for any event! Everyone loves BBQ!!! The staff is great to work with! Makes my job easy peasy!!!

We requested delivery at 4:45 and the food was delivered at precisely 4:45! Everything that we needed was included in the delivery. The food was a major hit with our guests. One caution I would suggest: we ordered the 3-meat choice for 35 people. We probably had enough food for 70! When I use Famous Dave's again, I will still order the 3-meat choice, but I will order much less!!

I called in and a catering specialist helped me through the order a week before the event. Called back two days prior to add to the order. It was ready exactly when they said and everything was delicious. Everyone was excited for Famous Dave's and rightfully so. Highly recommend!

We have had Famous Dave's cater past events for us but it has been a few years since we held the event.
From the first contact with there catering service they were completely professional and help guide me thru the numerous questions I had throughout the process. Famous Stephanie was my contact and was very responsive every time I called. The day before the event Alyson called me to review the details and where to set up. The event went off without a hitch. The servers were very organized, friendly and helpful.
I highly recommend them and will utilize there services down the road. Of course the food was EXCELLENT!!!

The flexibility within the selected menu was fantastic. They allowed me to break up servings so I could add diversity into the side dishes and please everyone who attended. They even left the jalapeno out of the macaroni & cheese for me upon request. Delivery and set up was a breeze and the final presentation made our retiree feel very special. Thank you to the catering staff at the North Olmsted location for going the extra mile. All of the food - especially the brisket - was excellent.

I called in an order 3 days before we were having a farewell lunch for a co-worker, and they got the job done. It was easy to place the order, and I was given great suggestions on what to serve our guest. The day of the event the delivery person came in early and set everything up, and was kind and helpful. The lunch was a hit with our office staff. I can't wait to plan our next event with Famous Dave's BBQ.

Everyone at our wedding loved the food. Alyson Tiller was great to work with for our wedding reception. Our wedding venue was over an hour away and you couldn't tell. I was a little nervous about the food riding that long, but everything was excellent! Thanks for a great reception dinner.

Folks this is the second time our golf league has used Famous Dave's BBQ for our end of the year outing. From the first RFQ to the final decision, Alyson Tiller worked personally with me to ensure all then details were covered. The catering arrived exactly on time, the server set up the food and the meal was hot and fantastic. I would recommend Famous Dave's and Alyson's professionalism to anyone that would ask. Thank you for making it a fantastic event.

Alyson is fantastic to work with, and makes the ordering process very simple. We have used Famous Dave's to cater our corporate safety events for years, and the food is always great. The main reasons we continue to use Famous Dave's is the quality of the food, the quality of the service, the ease of ordering/paying, and my group loves barbecue.

We held a company picnic at a park for 135 people and Famous Dave's did the catering. The food was delicious and the staff was very friendly. Alyson Tiller was so nice and brought samples to my office so that we could decide on our entries and side dishes. We have heard from our employees that we should have Famous Dave's back next year and this food was the best we have had so far. The kids options were great as well!

Famous Kim did an exceptional job. We had a hiccup with needing our order on Mother's Day. However she worked it out and came thru in the bottom of the 9th. Our food arrived on time and hot. I strongly recommend Famous Dave's for your catering needs.

Kim was really great about promptly answering my emails & questions during the planning phase of our daughter's First Communion reception. We ordered 12 pounds of BBQ pulled pork for pick-up the day of our event. My mom picked it up & everything went smoothly. The only thing I wish we'd known is that four bottles of sauce come with such an order and we did not need more. I told my mom to grab a four pack of sauces. This sadly only included two Flavors when in the restaurant there are more. We ended up buying sauce we didn't need because we didn't know it came with sauce. My mom dutifully bought the sauce we told her to & we didn't need it. Other than that hiccup it was great. The BBQ pulled pork was by far the hit of the party & made the Buca di Beppo pastas & Master Pizza pale in comparison. People raved & gobbled it up on sandwich buns & also just by itself. This is our 3rd or 4th time ordering this stuff and won't be our last.

Even before Alyson Tiller arrived with sample ribs and corn muffins, I was planning on having BBQ brought in for a company luncheon. Well, it's not just the moist and flavorful BBQ and exemplary side dishes that makes Famous Dave's.. famous. Whomever is responsible for promoting superb customer service and super attitudes needs a raise. Even the driver, Chad, was a hoot! Jobs well done, folks. You should all be very proud of the product and your service.

This is the second year in a row where I have hosted a Superbowl party catered by Famous Dave's Ribs. The initial call to the catering department was very easy and friendly and included a detailed invoice and email reminders that my order would be delivered.

The delivery was scheduled for 7:45 p.m. and the driver arrived exactly at 7:45 p.m. and set everything up. Additionally, numerous amenities including utensils, sauce, salad dressings, and wet naps were all provided.

Lastly, Famous Dave’s even offers food for vegetarians and the black bean burger was absolutely great.

Good Job to Famous Dave’s on a job well done and I will be seeing you again soon.

Aside from the fact that food is amazing - the service is always top-notch too!
Our holiday luncheon this year was on a snowy day where the roads in the early part of the day were horrible. But our delivery was on time, and set up "famously"!

We have used Famous Dave's catering for our holiday luncheon for several years now, and I don't dare change - I'd have a mutiny on my hands!

Famous Dave's has never let us down. We have used them for several events. The food is so good. I could only rate them 5/5 which I wish I could rate them a 10 out of 10. There is a saying that goes a little like this. "The food was good I could smack your Momma." No pun intended. It means the food was delicious and so tender. Continue with all you do and we will continue to come back year after year.

I wanted to show my appreciation to my co-workers for their generosity at an unfortunate time in my life. I had eaten at Famous Dave before and had enjoyed their food at the Great American Rib Cook Off. Since I nor my taste buds have ever been disappointed by Famous Dave, I chose them over everyone else. I have to say that it was fantastic. Everyone was so impressed by the food that was served. Some of my fellow co-workers had never eaten from Famous Dave's and vowed to go there and eat. Even after almost a week later, my co-workers are still raving about the food. The server who completed the set up for the luncheon was very professional and quick. (A one woman team.) VERY IMPRESSIVE!

I ordered Famous Dave's for a working dinner meeting. Now I know why it is called "Famous" Dave's...because now I am famous for ordering it. Everyone LOVED it. Alyson and her staff at Famous Dave's in North Olmsted, Ohio were kind, helpful, and attentive to every detail. I will definitely order from them again and so will many of the people who were at the meeting!

We chose Famous Dave's for our son's graduation party. They were 10 minutes early in delivering the food which was okay for us. The food was great and the guest devoured the ribs and corn bread muffin. There was none left for me :-(. I would definitely use Famous Dave's again.

We used Famous Dave's BBQ for our daughter's rehearsal dinner. The food was amazing!!!! The best part was that the food was delivered hot at the time we needed it and it took the worry out of getting from the church to the dinner venue without the stress of the food being ready and hot. I worked with Alyson in making all the arrangements, she was so helpful and professional. I will definitely use Famous Dave's BBQ in the future. Thank you again for making our dinner a memorable evening.

FD's catered our wedding and we were thrilled with the job they did. They were punctual, efficient, and extremely friendly with our guests. The best part is they knew exactly what to do and just went for it, and neither I, my wife, nor our wedding coordinator were bothered or had to worry about anything. And the food was fantastic, on top. I'd strongly recommend these guys for whatever catering event you guys need.

Haley Betts from the North Olmsted, Ohio Famous Dave's was FANTASTIC to work with. She was available whenever I had questions, answered them quickly and even tried to help locate the serving dishes we needed. She really knows her stuff!

We chose to have a family style meal. Everything was cooked perfectly and the service was wonderful. Haley's team helped so much with my daughter's wedding reception. In addition to serving the meal for 224 guests, they served water, cut & set out the wedding cake, helped with the appetizers & an additional side dish I brought, cleared the tables, cleaned the kitchen, and boxed up the leftovers. I'm sure there are many things they did that I'm not even aware of and I'm so grateful for their help. Thank you Haley for making our event so memorable!!!

We had a wonderful experience with famous Dave's. the food was delicious and plentiful. The only suggestion that I would make is that you provide more plates if you are going to offer seconds, because many people throw them away and expect a new one because they are paper. I understand that it would be costly, but would have been willing to pay the price if it had been offered. I was told that we were out of plates right after seconds were announced. If anything, let people know that they are to keep their plates before hand. Many compliments were given on the food (especially the brisket) and we will definitely use you again in the future. The servers that you provided we're very friendly and very helpful. The catering representative was very patient and helpful. Thanks again!

This was one of the best wedding decisions we made! Famous Daves was perfect... we received dozens of compliments on the food, many said it was the best wedding food they ever had. We planned a formal, outdoor wedding for 150 people and (go figure) it started to downpour minuets before the food was served... the catering staff brought all the food inside, helped move tables, and plated dinner before I even had time to panic!

I also cannot say enough positive things about our catering manager, Haley, she went above and beyond what was expected. She even helped us find and serve vegan meals for guests who don't eat BBQ. I absolutely recommend Famous Daves, its versatile, delicious, and a great group of people to work with!

Baby Shower

Famous Dave’s is an amazing option for catering events! They are about half the price of most catering services. I had them for my daughter’s baby shower. Everything was perfect from the menu options to the Delivery. My guests were thrilled with the menu especially the Mac-N-Cheese & cornbread. Thank you so much for your famous bbq and service!! I will be looking forward to using famous Dave’s again very soon!!
