I haven’t been to Rudy’s in ages. I used to coach gymnastics behind #Pixar for years and I must have raised myself on Classic American Breakfast before chicken Apple was cool.For me this place is nostalgic and an American Classic! It’s 110% on the money as usual. Highly recommend you make this your go to breakfast spot if you are just visiting or a local. Team #CantFail Por Vida ❤️Vegetarian options: Vegan Friendly ❤️

Unexpectedly a popping place! Homey food, fun decorations. Only issue is that the parking is small for the restaurant, and is hard to find an available table.Would still 100% recommend this diner!

We had lunch here. Cute place where you order at the counter and then have food brought to your table. We had two kids hamburgers well done that were beyond charbroiled. The kids literally didn't each any of it. The fries and french toast plate were good.

I had an appointment scheduled near by and was early to arrive, so I decided to stop at Rudy's to kill time. Just as I was making my way to the front door the manager was closing up the diner and locking up for the day. He could see my disappointment and graciously invited me in allowing me to spend around an hour hanging out in the diner while he closed up; he even kindly offered to sell/provide some beverages in spite the fact the kitchen was done for the night.I very much appreciate the kind service and gracious nature of the staff at Rudy's.

Great food here. Big portions. Fantastic milkshakes.Parking: Small parking lot with options to park on street. We came when it wasn't busy so it was easy to find a spot. I reckon it might be harder during brunch hours.
