Rudy's is attached to a gas station but is a full restaurant. Just follow your nose to the excellent offerings. The brisket is usually moist, sometimes too much rub but excellent with the pickles, onions and spicy sauce on white bread- typical Texas Q sandwich. The ribs are very good, meaty. I like the St. Louis ones, smaller, and very... More

Rudy's Bar-B-Q has really flavorful, and tender barbecue. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The restaurant offers samples of their Manuel which would help and barbecue novice in making a selection. The ribs are cooked to perfection, and the brisket is tender but does not fall apart. The created corn is the best I have had. Their pinto beans... More

We went here at the advice of my sister . They asked if we had ever been than cheered because it was our first time . They have several types of meat and sides . I had the moist brisket . Best ever !! It truly melts in your mouth. The sauce is dynamite but you don't need it. A... More

A great spot for delicious BBQ. The moist brisket was fantastic and is a can't miss item. Spicy sausage another good entree. I didn't care for the cream corn though. Service was very friendly and welcoming.

This is a very charming place right off I35, serving only a few different things, but doing them all very well! Grab a beer while you wait in queue. Very friendly staff.

The best brisket I've had, and I'm not usually partial to brisket. The outside is very peppery, so beware. The choices include lean or juicy, and you can sample anything at the counter prior to ordering. I went with lean, and true to it's name there was no discernable fat on the meat. I'll be back.

I'm not going to start this review by claiming Rudy's is the best BBQ in the Austin / Round Rock area - there are simply too many to realistically compare them all. They all appear to have won an award for something in their histories, so the least you can tell is that they've felt proud enough of their food... More

You have to try their extra moist brisket! It s to die for! If you're looking for a very chill laid back place to eat some great BBQ, this is your place! If you're a newbie tell your cashier because they'll let you taste the meet before you buy! Brisket and sausage are delicious although I prefer the turkey at... More

This place was not what I expected but it was definitely worth the visit. I was expecting a sit down restaurant with wait staff and a bar. However, it's actually like a fast food restaurant where you order at the counter and then take your tray to your table. Not exactly the relaxing dinner I had planned but it was... More

Glad I didn't let my judgement get the better of me. The turkey and lean brisket were great and the portions are well priced. I could have really doubled up on new potatoes and the most amazing creamed corn ever. The ladies that helped us were super friendly and made it a great experience.
