More Annoying Than Enjoyable – We went on a Tuesday eve. during Happy Hour with our 13 year old son. They wouldn't let us sit at a table in the bar area...said it was a law....I told them that law only pertains to sitting at the bar itself. Then they said it is their poilicy. I told them that they are the only place in town with that policy. They said that thr;ve had it for 35 years and that it is to protect children from overhearing bad conversations from other customers and that it also allows other customers in the bar to... read more
It's like Rudolph's is getting a little old in the tooth. I remember being a customer in the early years, when bar-B-Ques were not common place. It had decent food back then. Now it just blends in with the rest. The quality of the food (and service) can stand some improvements and upgrades. I don't see this as a "must eat at" place.
Rudolphs BBQ – I wanted to get some response or support for what I experienced at this establishment during there "Happy Hour." We were there early in the week having drinks and apps at the bar. When we were finished, we asked for the check and a "to go" box for the remainder of the apps we didn't finish. The bartender refused and informed we don't do "to go" boxes for H.H. apps. At first we thought she was joking, she wasn't... ! This is my concern, we "paid" for these, if we as patrons decide to take our food/apps home due... read more
Classic Minneapolis BBQ – I have been going to Rudolph's for a while now, and always am happy with my experience there. The chicken and ribs are my favorite, but the sides do a wonderful job at completing the meal. A well-stocked bar also makes Rudolph's a quality place to get some drinks.
The managers are rude, the bartenders just took their tip and I called and the manager still didnt do anything about it!
not like it used to be – just does not match up the food used to be good now the last two times i have gone the ribs and chicken have seemed to be cooked in a microwave.
Mediocre, overrated BBQ – The first strike was that they didn't have baked beans. The second strike was that the ribs were dry. The third strike was that the ribs were band. If you like Southern-style barbecue, this is a poor interpretation of it. In fact, I'm not even sure if that's what they are going for. Whatever the case, it didn't work for this Southerner. Nice atmosphere and location, good service, but the food is not good, yet you still pay a lot for it.
Best Bar B Que It is one of the best bbq places around. The food and beer are excellent. The waitstaff and service are almost as good as the food. I could eat there at least once a week.
Best cole slaw- EVER!!! – I found the cole slaw Mecca and it's located on Lyndale ave! I had a craving for BBQ, and all my co-workers suggested Rudolph's. Well frankly I don't even remember my pulled pork sandwich, I was so enthralled with the 'slaw. It's not easy to create, the perfect 'slaw. The dear departed second oldest diner in NJ, the Burlington Diner in Burlington, NJ- came close, but Rudolph's leads the pack with their chopped cabbage treat.
