Amazing food, service and atmosphere
It’s a family tradition on Thanksgiving eve that our entire family (about 25-30) go out for Mexican food. This year we went to Rudy’s, which I have always loved, but was by far at the top of our Thanksgiving Eve experience. They accommodated all 25 of us at one table, took amazing care of us, didn’t get a single order wrong and the food was as delicious as ever once it all came out. The menu is large, anyone will have a hard time choosing, they also have a large ala carte menu for those of us who want a bit of everything. They don’t split checks on large tables but our waitress was so wonderful she went ahead and helped us divide everything up.
Dishes I tried:
#30 La Reyna
Had one beef taco, a shredded chicken taco and an enchilada of your choice with rice or beans. Delicious. I have probably tried over 50% of the menu and am rarely disappointed. I am not a huge enchilada fan usually but Rudy’s has a special sauce they put on theirs that is delicious.

Cheap and fast
I have ordered Kin Lin take out since my high school days 8-9 years ago. It’s been going down hill. The fried rice almost seems like it comes from a frozen package you get at a grocery store. The woman at the counter is rude and acts as though you are taking away from her precious time. The last time I ordered Sesame chicken was disappointing, it was cold and hard.
