Rudy's Mexican Cafe

I'm not in Somerville too often but anytime my friends want to grab dinner in Davis I suggest we go to Rudy's in Teele Square instead. It's a perfect spot for people who want to drive since there is plenty of parking but it's also just a short walk from the Davis T. You better not drive though, after a few of Rudy's margarita's you'll be glad you didn't!.

I went here with Jesse and Dorian, and we were all starving. We had intended on going to the Border Cafe in Harvard, but when parking seemed like not a feasible option over in that direction, Jesse mentioned going here and we ventured to Teele Square. We found parking immediately, and were seated right away, which is always awesome when starving. Also, the prices are very reasonable, which is awesome. We ordered an order of the large black bean nachos, and while things with black beans aren't usually my jam, I really dug these ones. We also ordered a side of guacamole, which was out of this world good. Definitely the best I've had in the area that didn't cost a million dollars. We ordered a few margaritas and mine were the Ol' Blu, which was, not surprisingly, blue in color, and then I had a prickly pear margarita, which was way too sweet. Definitely stick with the classics. We walked up the stairs into our house commenting on slight drunkenness post dinner, though. I ordered the combo #1. I have to say, while it was delicious, I think that the nachos are really where it's at. And did I mention that they have jalapeno poppers? I didn't order any, but that's an excellent option to have. My entree came with a beef taco, a bean and cheese mini burrito, and a chicken enchilada. The highlight was the beef taco, served in a crunchy shell. Also a bonus: the entrees are served with a scoop of guacamole as well, versus having to order it on the side. I also tried Dorian's enchilada platter, which was really just cheese and sauce because she's a vegetarian, but it was deliciously cheesy regardless. Definitely we will be back, and it's put the idea in our minds of having a Mexican food bar at our wedding......mmmmm, Mexican food, how we love you.
