Ru Ru's Tacos & Tequila

This restaurant was very spacious and inviting as we entered with a cool atmosphere. This location offers a 10% military discount. I rated this restaurant as a 3 Star for a few reasons, in which I will explain. First let’s talk about the positives on the visit. As mentioned above, very spacious and inviting atmosphere and we were seated immediately. The movie quote theme is awesome and creates a fun vibe. On the food, both appetizers ordered were fantastic. The Calamari was fried well and the sauces were awesome. The nachos were exactly what someone should expect. I would recommend a little more seasoning on the beef and a less salty chip. The service was very nice and courteous. Now the areas of improvement: First off, the restaurant had an awful smell upon arriving and took some time to get used to it. The smell was similar to ammonia. May have lingered in from the HVAC system. As I looked up, the ceiling air vents had a lot of black dust on them. I cannot confirm, but could be mixed

Restaurant has great location and ambience but terrible food. The stars are only for the cool ambience and its location in the historic downtown. All food ordered was disappointing. They had fancy names in the menu. Rice bowl had semi cooked rice. Chips were too salty to eat. Tacos were not impressive.

Amazing cool evening at Ru Ru’s! Thought it would be very expensive and yuppy. Nope, perfect place for everyone in the best area of Charleston! The food and drinks were spot on, highly recommended and even better service.
