It is a small operation putting out a high quality product in a small town environment. Everyone that works there is so nice and personable. So we found the place with Yelp and I am a sucker for small bbq places. We walked in and were greeted as we entered the door by two very nice women. They gave us instructions on how the ordering works and told us the Thursday special. Loaded backed potato. We chose the fillings and the meat. It was the tater, dessert and drink for $15. We had seen the size of the potato already and chose to split it, had it made with fatty brisket, and of course a 1/4 lb of sausage. We took our order up to the window and met the namesake of the restaurant, but by we did not know it then. The options in that simple dish was great. Again, fatty brisket, we did sliced on the side, we actually got both jalepeno and cheese, as well as regular smoked sausage. The sweet tea was great, not too sweet, perfect for my tastes. They insisted on carrying the tray out for us. Epic- the brisket was tender, juicy and perfectly smoked. The bark was great, had a touch of spice on the back end. The sausage was perfect. Honestly, I never asked for Bbq sauce, never needed it. The owner came out later, struck up a conversation. Let us know future menu items of which I am looking forward to. The banana pudding was sweet, but good. They are moving in a few days, but just around the corner. I look forward to stopping in again at their new location and new menu items. Just throwing this out as a recommendation for a future option: To go with the real potato fries that you are adding, consider adding fatty brisket on top, cover in shredded cheddar with a little pico and sour cream as well as jalapeños. Just a thought. Good luck!!!

We got fabulous place with just what it says Tex-Mex barbecue. Even the unsweet iced tea was really good When I posted it on Facebook, I had several of my friends that live in that area almost told me I was in trouble with them because I didn't tell him I was going there for lunch. They wanted to meet me just so they would have a good reason to go eat there. It's one of those places that you get kind of addicted to because they do things so well and you feel so welcome. It's pretty cool place though it's I think it converted Dairy Queen from back in the day definitely an upgrade on the culinary side of things versus a Dairy Queen It's cool. They even have a couple of DRAFT beer options if you need to have that with your brisket taco which you might need to have that with your brisket taco I had a massive quesadilla that I took home the last wedge of it because I couldn't eat it all

My Bun was fresh and so were my lays Potato Chips and there was a lot in the bag. I really enjoyed Rudy's Barbecue Sauce it tasted sort of like Arby's sauce? The Sissy Sauce was not good at all, I passed on that. The Sauce is at the table, if you need it. Napkins are nearby too. It's huge inside. They also have a meeting room. Country Music played while a lot of Seniors ate their lunch. Actually, George Strait's infamous song, It Ain't Cool to be Crazy About You was playing as I was leaving. I definitely recommend Rudy's, you will love the atmosphere, customer service and fresh food.

Then he told us it was the waitress's fault. My meal was only just terrible, but i could identify kind of what it was supposed to be, and i could clearly recognize the french fries. A couple at another table had chicken and waffles with way undercooked chicken.. Too bad, i wanted to like this place. I really like old school mom & pop diners a lot more than just another chain, and this place has the vibe i was after. I just should have brought food from somewhere else.

The ambiance was peaceful, the establishment was clean and everyone was attentive. The price for 3 people to eat was LOW !! Which pleased us. Check them out next time your in Cleburne or just looking for a good place to dine. They have been around since 1920.. that says alot ! Check them out, do a review so I can hear your comments.

It was a busy Friday evening but everything we ordered came out quickly. The margaritas were great as well as the chips and salsa. They have a salsa verde that is good but you have to pay extra for it. That was my first time ever being charged for a different salsa at a restaurant, but that would have been my only complaint. Our food was hot, fresh and tasty. Prices are reasonable and the restaurant is clean. Parking is on the side of the building, as well as the entrance. I felt I should mention this because I drive by daily and just thought maybe they were closed because the front of the building always looks empty. I would definitely recommend giving them a try.
