What People Are Saying
from Google"Still a great place for breakfast. Not like it used to be with a server. Now you order at the entrance and then you can seat anywhere. The breakfast was still good and all the different themes were a handful of memories."
"A great place for breakfast. You order at the entrance and then you can seat anywhere. I got the Tower of Power. Really good and very filling. I also liked all the different table displays."
"The food was sooo good! Service was great they were all so happy. I loved the atmosphere the decor, including the tables. Oh and the prices are great we’re a big family and we definitely didn’t feel like we over paid."
"rudy's can fail, actually. i don't know why this should even be a controversial take when there are other brunch spots in the area that blow this one out of the water. and who thought "diner opened by the green day guy (no, not even the one you're thinking of)" sounded like a recipe for success? it's not that anything is cooked particularly poorly; it's just squarely unimpressive and lacking in flavor. maybe the sandwiches are better than the potato and egg fare, but the likelihood of me returning to find out is fairly low. before i ever ate here, i used to joke that i assumed staff were contractually obligated to play green day songs over the stereo with a certain degree of regularity. hilariously, this does actually seem to be the case. the playlist was suspiciously dense with the band's hits when i went there. i don't even dislike green day or anything; i just think that's funny. you have to admit that's pretty funny, right?"
"Loved this place. I had crab cake Benedict, the crab cakes were mostly chunks of crab, delicious! My eggs were actually cooked the way i ordered them. The atmosphere was amazing. The prices were very good, especially for the bay area. Go here."
