by TJ F. on I went here for a 944 event. It has an outstanding nighttime view of the city. Great sound system. No food. Very limited choices at the bar. I expected better after subjecting myself to a metal detector to get in. On a different note, I must say there were a whole lotta hot chicks up in thurr though. Its was difficult compromise and who wants that. I parked outside a half a block away for free but I guess there lots of parking inside.
by Arnold Boccio on The continued existence of this shack of a tavern amazes me. It is a testament to the reluctant purchasing power of a hungry college population that apparently has no alternative for drinks in the area surrounding campus; for the same reasons I myself return to Trudy's several times a semester. Trudy's is expensive. The $7 "Mexican martini," a watered-down margarita without the shaved ice, purports to present a good value, served in a full shaker of cheap tequila, but it's impossible to get a smaller serving, and it's a doughty drinker indeed who can down that whole canister of bile in one sitting. The food resorts to the same cheap trick, ever the signature of an insecure Tex-Mex joint, of serving huge plates (1000+ calories) of insipid beans and rice, the sheer size of which is supposed to justify the $7-12 price tag on entrees. As it is, the drinks are overrated, the food is flavorless yet heavy, and the atmosphere is at once boisterous due to college influence, and despondent, due to patrons' acute awareness that they had no choice but to go to Trudy's, being the only restaurant of its kind in the area. If the management halved the prices of everything on offer, I would gladly visit this place, happy to be supporting my local Tex-Mex hole in the wall; right now it's plain pretentious.
by Duane Hainey on Its gets crazy when a big DJ comes. Saw Armin here and i though i was going to die. It was literally 120 degrees inside and there were so many old asians on drugs... but what do i expect right? That may have been the worst experience I've had. Other than that I've had many good nights here. Its also nice they have a patio so you can escape the heat or just the crowds!
