We usually request Ron as our server, but it was his night off, so we had Marisol. She was great! She’s a real asset to Rudy’s! Fabulous meal, great drinks and wonderful service!

Lobster bisque was perfect. Husband filet was a trifle overdone & his mashed potatoes were gummy.

The restaurant was very loud due to 2 or 3 parties that had obviously had a lot of alcohol. Our waiter was fantastic very friendly & accommodated our special requests.

I always enjoy eating at Rudy's, but, I only ever order prime rib ... sometimes with lobster, sometimes not ... so, I can't speak to the other entrées. However, the clam chowder is great, as are the calamari, and the escargot/mushroom appetizers. Cocktails seem good and strong. The house salad is crisp, and fresh. Pineapple upside down cake is delicious... if you left any room for dessert. I have always found the wait staff to be friendly, and helpful. Never any problems, parking. Definitely not inexpensive, but Rudy's won't disappoint.

We had the best experience and the food was so delicious. Our waitress she made us feel so welcome, she made recommendations and was so very fun. Her name was Reese. We will for sure be returning again in the future.
