Smokin' Dave's BBQ

The food was amazing!! The ribs and pulled pork were super tender and delicious, and the brisket was not as good imao. The decorations were very classic and cute! The service was good, and the atmosphere was chill. The restaurant was literally facing the mountains 🏔️ which made the dining experience even better!!! Love this place!

Service was amazing, drinks are 32oz so they big as hell. I devoured my chicken fried steak. that was bomb. the fries actually get seasoned so i was diggin the fries. my plate looked like i was never served bc everything was gone my wife got herself some fried okra n immediately mentioned how good it was. she ordered herself the ribs that she couldn’t finish bc even a Dave’s single plate was a lot of food for her small appetite.

This restaurant is the place to go while in Estes Park. The food is high quality, good tasting, and very reasonably priced. For the quality of food that you're getting, the prices are much lower than you'd expect. The BBQ sauces are also very good. I recommend the spicy and tangy ones. The ambiance is great with cool decor and good music playing. The staff is nice and is accommodating. This restaurant is overall really amazing and a great place to go for a good time and even better food!

I came in for lunch and can't say enough good things about my food and the service, top notch! Jelsea (sorry if that's not the correct spelling) was my server; she was friendly, fast and efficient and although I didn't have a huge order, she checked back and made sure I had everything I needed. I mentioned it was my birthday and I was so happy I had chosen a great place for lunch, and she gave me a little treat, which she recommended, and I'm excited to try it. The food was delicious, fresh, piping hot and a very large portion for the money. The cornbread was exceptional, I've never had better and the southern corn casserole took my catfish meal to the next level, highly recommend it as a side. Thanks to everyone who makes this restaurant so good, you have a big fan here!

We grabbed carryout from Smokin' Dave's BBQ at 4pm on a weekday and were surprised to find the place packed - clearly a local favorite! The stuffed potato skins were loaded with toppings (they needed a little extra BBQ sauce, but the house sauce they provided was delicious). But let's talk about these bison ribs - as Kansas City natives, we don't say this lightly: these were some of the best ribs we've had anywhere! Why they impressed us: ✓ Ginormous portions (seriously, each rib was the size of a sheet of paper!) ✓ Perfect smoky bark with that ideal tender-but-not-mushy texture ✓ The blueberry BBQ sauce sounded weird but was an amazing sweet-tangy complement ✓ So good my husband kept trying to steal mine off my plate Even with our high KC BBQ standards, we were thoroughly impressed. Helpful notes: Place was hopping even at off-hours - plan accordingly!
