The Experience:

Your Fav Diner Now Open for Dinner!

With a very heavy heart, Rudy’s closed their doors in August of 2022. But then it became their dream to bring Rudy’s back and the staff are so grateful for their community!  Patrons and employees stepped forward and responded to their call for help. Co-owners Doug Smith, Nelson Ortiz and their third partner Guadaloupe were able to buy the business from a previous ownership and with the help of their landlord revived Rudy’s Can’t Fail Café.

It’s still that one-of-a-kind diner with great food served in a fun and creative environment. (Did you know they have a Barbie Collection?)

And the community is head over heels to have Rudy’s back! In a SF Chronicle article about restaurant and bar revivals from pandemic closures, Smith had the opportunity to tell Bay Area residents just how important their community was and is in helping their dream come true.

Reopening cautiously with just breakfast and lunch, they now have happily eased into serving dinner two nights a week. Here are their new hours: Tue -Thurs, 8am-3pm; Fri/Sat, 8am-3pm & 5-9pm; Sun, 8am-3pm. What are you waiting for? They can’t wait to see you.   510-594-1221.

PS Still looking for gifts? Give the gift of Rudy’s this holiday season! A juicy burger, fries, and shake sounds like the perfect present for that person who has everything.
