Stopped by here on the way to Cedar Rapids. Hadn't been to a Maid Rite in over a decade as most of…read morethem have closed near the twin cities. We stopped by for a late lunch and there weren't a lot of people. Easy parking and not too far off the highway. Very friendly staff and courteous. Clean establishment with a little of that diner charm. We ordered a few things, maid rite (of course), kids rite, fries, nuggets. Prices were in line with fast food chains (everything has gone up in price). The food was as I remember it. The fries were crisp and hot. The sandwich was just like I remember. Brought back memories. Might have been a little drier than what I remember but it's been a long time. I would skip the cheese curds. Definitely worth the nostalgia and decent food at a reasonable price. I always look out for one on our road trips and it doesn't disappoint.

Stop what you're doing and go to Rudy's ! I had the large (…read moreaccent on large), combo platter, and it was delicious. The lettuce, cheeses, and tomatoes were cool, crisp, and fresh. The beef, rice, and beans were hot and savory. Appearance is key and it was all presented well. The place is unscrupulously clean; there is always someone cleaning or sweeping the dining room. Rudy's has an atmosphere and menu that fits a family outing, or a group of friends out for some good food and conversation. The service too is as good as the food.

We ordered larges for the extra beverage but was given a small, fine, nobody really needs a large soda even if it is diet. When we got home we had one cheeseburger sandwich meal that we did order and the other was a spicy jalapeño chicken sandwich meal that neither of us wanted or would order. It wasn't worth the hassle of going back to have it corrected since we would have to spend all that time again in the drive thru. They get a bonus star because they at least got the frostys right and the girl at the window was friendly. Otherwise, if you're in any type of hurry I'd probably avoid this place.

She was impatient and didn't really even seem to care about anything that was being said. Second of all, we order three orders of chips and cheese/guacamole. None of the chips were even good, they all tasted very stale and nasty. They were brittle even, if you will. The pepsi that we got was also very syrup-y, so it was very undrinkable. The person at the window that handed us our food was very nice, so kudos to her. But when we called the store, the woman that we spoke to was very rude. She told us "Our chips are made at 6am" blah blah blah. We tried to tell her that we understand that they are busy, but our food was uneatable. I would not go to this Taco Bell ever again, especially since the atmosphere is rude and the food is horrible.

Super, super friendly and clean new store! Even the trash by the drinks was empty during rush hour. The food was made fresh and was accurate with our modifications.

A mixed experience here. Excellent worker at the counter…read more Friendly and happy greeting. Happy to take my order. And also was busy delivering orders to tables. Exactly the kind of "fast food" employee you'd want but rarely see. My order--Chicken BigMac. Thought I'd try it. My order comes up. I take the sandwich box out of the bag. The paper label on the box says Chicken BigMac--it is a special order. Open the box to find a regular beef Big Mac. How does that get in there when it had a label on the outside? So now I have to go back, ask for a replacement to get what I ordered and wait...wait...wait. Summary: Sandwich--good. It does slide out of the bun with that sauce. Not a drive-and-eat sandwich at all. Will have another. Counter service--excellent Kitchen Service--really? How do you mess it up when you have a label on the box? Reaction? 3/5 and could be a 2, but the sandwich was pretty good.
