        Tight Fit Seating!!!

        The Food is great, the Prices are super High but the worst of all is the very close, tight seating! They may as well sit you on the person's lap you're sitting next to!! Very Uncomfortable!

        Overall
        Gotta be the best BBQ you can find at a chain!

        My wife and I are at a tie between Famous Dave's and Bandanas for the best BBQ at a chain. They have truely good BBQ at a very good price. We recommend the BBQ nachos, which sounds wrong at first, but is awesome once you try it. My wife frequently says "How did we ever make nachos without BBQ sauce?"



        Great service and great food!
