Famous Dave’s announced its most recent initiative, after signing with a new franchisee, Dave Crimmins. Dave has combined Famous Dave’s with Texas T-Bone Steakhouse located at 5245 North Academy Colorado Springs.

“We’re thrilled to partner with a new franchise partner in order to pair these two legendary restaurants within one building as a dual-branded effort,” says Jeff Crivello, CEO of BBQ Holdings, Inc. “This new restaurant is among many of our initiatives that deliver to our customers’ suggestions to evolve our brand.”

The restaurant in Colorado Springs will pair Famous Dave’s award-winning barbeque with Texas T-Bone’s ‘best steak around town.’ The new franchise signing and restaurant opening marks an exciting time for Famous Dave’s parent company, BBQ Holdings, and an interesting time for the restaurant industry due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Throughout the pandemic, Famous Dave’s was quick to adapt its model in order to continue serving customers safely and efficiently, while opening several new restaurants and ghost kitchen locations throughout the U.S. with recent openings in Illinois, California, Washington, Kentucky, Missouri and Texas. The company has been working tirelessly to invest in technology and shift to a smaller footprint during this unprecedented time.

“It’s an exciting era for Famous Dave’s as we focus on growth and innovation of our brand, while continuing to implement the same core values that Famous Dave’s has held for 26 years.” says Crivello.
