Ooooohhh the smell of smoked meat! YUM! If you’re hungry for real Texas BBQ, you’ll be in heaven from the moment you walk through the door! So many choices, and I love that they include calorie counts for every item. The staff is super friendly and the food does not disappoint! And Rudy’s sauses are so so so good!

This is my first time eating at Rudy’s and it was some really good barbecue. I make a lot of barbecue myself ‘StupidGoodAZBBQ’ to include many of the meats that they smoke and although I love my own barbecue I also really like Rudy’s and will definitely be back. I tried the beef brisket, baby back ribs, and coleslaw and also sampled the brisket moist which was really good, and will have that next time I go. We also had the smoked potato with brisket on top which was also very good. There are some barbecue places around Tucson that are pretty good but Rudy’s, even though it’s a large Texas chain, has a great atmosphere and this location has some really good food and our service was great as well. I obviously recommend trying it!

The Moist Brisket is incredible! Expertly prepared and very flavorful. We sampled the turkey and jalapeño sausage too and both were very tasty. Rudy’s is fast, efficient, delicious, and reasonably priced. We loved it!

Busy place. Had the brisket but was a bit dry should have gone for the moist brisket instead. Service was great this was our first time here and the girl at the counter took her time to explain how the menu works and gave us recommendations. Will definitely try again.

Everything was so good. Our first visit to a Rudy’s and our server/counter person was great. He got us samples and explained how the company works. The food was very good. The portions are big and had a lot of sides. We will be back! We are originally from Kansa City but this was really good even to picky us. Thank you!

There was a big hype around the place. So we decided to have a girls night dinner here. The vibes were uplifting and fun. Spacious eating areas so you’re not bunched up next to others. The food was good. I got the baby back ribs- they were a little dry. And then as a side I got a corn on the cob. Which was delicious. I would say at least try this place once! We will probably go again to test out other items on the menu!

Over priced food that didn’t have much flavor. The food is ordinary, I can cook it better at home. BBQ sauce wasn’t anything that great to remember. Service was just OK. Everything is Al a cart so makes it pricier I think. The ribs were meaty and well cooked. Too bad they don’t cook them in BBQ sauce. You have to add it yourself later. —– Long story short it is only a one time eating experience for me.

Be warned that the customer service is TERRIBLE! My family and I placed an order online for a pickup at 5:15pm. We arrived early and called in just to let them know that we were there. The person who answered the phone overemphasized that the order would not be ready until 5:15. Ok. No problem. However, 5:15 came and our food did not. So, we called again at 5:25 to say that we were waiting for our food and sitting in spot #1. The young lady came out to bring the food to the car and was directed to bring it to the passenger side, at which point she mouthed the words, “F@$&ing B@&$!

The food is excellent. Quick getting food when you order at counter. Had the beef brisket sandwich, very tasty, mesquite wood cooked. Wife had the Smoked Potato with wet brisket, a very large potato with butter, sour cream and cut up wet brisket on top. She was very pleased with it.

This store is amazing! At times the wait can be long but it is so worth it. We went with a family of 7 and had no problem finding a table. We ordered the moist brisket, regular sausage, spicy sausage, ribs, pork ribs, and pulled pork. All the meat was very well cooked and delicious. They have a small locker with ice cream for desert as well. 10/10 will be going back again! Thank you!
