Stopped in for lunch with some out of town friends. They were packed to the gills but still managed to provide great friendly service. We had a brisket plate, carne guisada plate, brisket sandwich plate and some drinks. Never a disappointment when we come to Dave's. I didn't take any pictures as they are the same as the other ones. Food was hot fresh and delicious, definitely be back

The food was so good!! We got a few different dishes. The mollejas were fire! Loved them. The two meat with brisket and sausage was very good. The sides we got were potato salad and macaroni. We got the burrito which was super huge so beware. It did have too much cheese. The saucy kind so of I had known it was that kind of cheese I would have asked not to have it. The dessert was banana pudding and it was the best!! The lemonade was not that great. The staff was ok. Nothing remarkable. The place is small and mostly high top tables. There is a-lot of fans so that bothered me as far as the temperature and drying out my contacts. But Im super picky. It's pretty loud in there if you're ok with that. The food did come out fast which was nice. And lastly the women's restroom was odd. There are no doors for the two stalls. Instead there's curtains to close like dressing rooms. Not very private.

Very good food. The pork ribs as well as the English cut ribs are incredible. Very large portions of food, great service, happy folks, and a cool place. If you are in the area, give it a try. You may need a power nap after your meal if you go with the 3 meat. It is awesome.

I can't believe this place has been here about 7 years and we just heard about it 2 days ago. The food is delicious , fresh and moist and tender brisket . The portions are great for the price, which the price is also great. They have brisket bombers and mollejas too ! The staff was very friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was pleasant, and my husband loved the fact that it was not hot at all , the AC was perfect especially in this heat . Definitely going back again as my to go place for bbq. I recommend this place.

Great food. Get the brisket and ribs. Wish I had pictures. Beware, the music is loud on Friday and Saturday evenings. We asked and they wouldn't turn it down. Couldn't talk to people at our table because it was so loud. See our YouTube channel Coolest Life.
