Located near Arbor Lakes Mall off of 94. Our authentic BBQ starts in a live-wood smoker stoked with genuine hickory logs. Our pitmasters hand-rub the meats with a custom blend of spices and cook for hours to extract the natural flavors. We source the highest quality meats and trim them up like we’re in a competition and hand-rub them with the freshest seasonings available to create mouthwatering experiences! In addition to our BBQ and grilled meats, our menu features a selection of salads, sandwiches, side items, and made-from-scratch desserts.

    They're OpenTable account said they were open. They took our reservation and confirmed it. We drove 20 miles to get there and found the parking lot empty and doors closed. We were denied. Some restaurants were open later on Christmas and your OpenTable page showed you were one of them. It lied and cost us both time and money. Thanks for nuthin'. We ended up at Maynard's who was open. Thank you, Maynard's. Our server got a HUGE tip and thank you for being available. But for Famous Dave's in Maple Grove, whoever manages their OpenTable account gets coal in their stocking next Christmas for their poor management.

We understand how frustrating it is to drive such a distance only to find the restaurant closed. Your feedback is important, and we will take action to look into this issue regarding our reservation management. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to have the chance to serve you better in the future.

    The restaurant could have been cleaner! And the music was so loud that having a conversation was impossible!!!! And our Dad who is hard of hearing to begin with, couldn’t hear a word. As well it was his birthday.

    The waitress was the worst waitress I’ve had in all the years I’ve eaten out. Didn’t listen told us our bun wasn’t burnt and it was black. Wrong dressings, twice all made us hand the food to the others and NEVER checked back . Asked for manager he was great.

    It was my mom's birthday and we ate there. Everything was good. Server was very nice. We were probably loud but it wasn't too many people inside so we enjoyed ourselves!

    There were 6 of us that went for my husbands birthday. He loves Famous Dave's but the closet one is 45 minutes away. Anyways I really have no complaints. I guess if anything is that on Open Table it has you add if you want, any special requests or anything you want them to know and I put it was for a birthday. I would have even better if maybe the restaurant would have acknowledged or said something about that.

    Famous Dave's used to be the best BBQ, but the ribs had hardly any meat on them, the membrane on the back was not removed and the meat used to fall off the bone but didn't thus time. These were the worst ribs I've had at a BBQ place.

    Service was excellent. My daughter has an allergy to dairy and the waitress was very accommodating towards her needs, checking with the kitchen more than once to ensure that nothing she ordered contained dairy. The food was decent, about what you would expect for the price; nothing stood out to me as "spectacular", but the whole family enjoyed their meals and that's a win in my book.
