The food was excellent. There was a ton of it. We got a sampler to share with extra sides and brought some home because there was so much food. It was delicious! We would definitely go again!

Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram at SNDTRAVELS and EATWELLTRAVELOFTEN2.9.24 Dinner Springfield OHSo you know we don't do BBQ much outside of Texas but every now and then you gotta have it.So we stopped at Comfort Suites nearby and wanted a close place to eat. Saw Rudy's and decided to check it out. The reviews were off the chart. So with those kind of reviews you have to try it.Diane and I got the sampler plate as I like to try as many different meats as possible to get a true report on thier cooking.The sampler had 6 meats. Pulled chicken, pulled pork, sausage, turkey, brisket, and ribs. A carnivores delight ?.It comes with 2 sides of which we chose scalloped potatoes and bacon green beans and 2 slices of garlic buttered Texas toast.The review is easy. All the meats were absolutely delicious and tender. The pulled pork, turkey and pulled chicken looked as if it could be dry but they were very tender. Every meat was cut with a fork tender. We had the sweet sauce and the Bourbon sauce, both of which were very good. The scalloped potatoes and the green beans were also wonderful.All of the portions were nice.The only slight mishap was the toast was just slightly overcooked but still tasted good. Loved that garlic butter.Overall I would have to say this is definitely some of the best BBQ I've had outside of Texas. Maybe the best.We can't recommend this place enough.Overall, highly recommended two thumbs-up ? ?.

It was clearly busy, but the staff was busting their tails. Service was good, food was great. I'll definitely come back when I'm in the neighborhood again. Thanks for a great experience.

Stopped in for lunch on a hunch. Had the brisket sandwich combo with corn bread and sweet potato casserole. BBQ was smokey and delicious. Sweet potato casserole was like dessert. Corn bread was a large muffin type thing. All very good!
My wife and I love this place and eat here nearly weekly - they are among the top of any other BBQ joints around central OH, and we've definitely had our share :-) They are clean, and the owner and staff are very friendly.The food is top notch - we love the brisket, pulled pork and smoked turkey (none are dry), and I've yet to find a side I don't like. Their bean soup and chili are great also. You gotta try the burnt ends at least once in your lifetime!They are closed on Sunday and while that can be a bummer when we get a hankering for some good bbq, this decision just makes us respect and patron this business all the more throughout the week, and everything reheats/tastes just as good as it did when we bought it - fresh can be overrated at some places - so we usually order enough for leftovers to compensate if we can't cook on an upcoming Sunday. We wish more restaurants would go back to closing Sunday, and as bbq is - slow the pace of the weekly madness down. If other restaurants would follow suit, it would alleviate worker shortages around town - there have also been several restaurant studies showing no decline in profitability by doing so, as they would be increasing their own demand on the days they're open + reducing operating costs by the one day, which more than compensate for any one day loss of sales while improving their worker satisfaction - we could use a happier world!
They suggested the Bourbon chicken and it was delicious.

By appearance alone you should walk in here and expect greatness. It lives up to that. Really good on so many levels. Highly recommend giving this a try for your next meal.
Get the ribs! Hush puppies and scalloped corn was awesome.

We were traveling from Columbus to Dayton and saw the sign on the highway. We know it’s not the famous Rudy from Texas but decided to give it a shot and we were glad we did!It’s pretty legit, we had the sampler which has 6 types of meats. I’m not a chicken person so can’t say much about the pulled chicken, but the rib, the pulled pork, the sausages, the turkey and all the fixings are really good. I am a sucker for sweet potato and theirs does not disappoint.If we travel this way again will definitely stop by again!
Good food, reasonable prices, and friendly service.

My favorite BBQ place in Springfield and surrounding areas. We got a family pack when my friends visited from out of town because they were disappointed in the BBQ where they lived.
Delicious!
