Lakota Harden This has been my sister Felicia and I, favorite place where we meet up on the regular.. I bring so many outoftowners to Rudy's for a guaranteed good time...
Michelle Myers This is just devastating!! What an incredible loss!! No warning? No last goodbye meals? No chance to buy some of the cool memorabilia at least??? Rudy’s will be missed forever! One of our all time favorite restaurants that we would splurge on because we enjoyed it so! I’d love to but the Barbie collection!! Or a few of them for sure! Man! I am so sad!! We will miss u all!!
Christopher McGovern Not only as a Rudy’s veteran, but as a customer am I saddened to see this. There aren’t a lot of places that strived to create an original vibe like Rudy’s. Thanks for everything
Carmin D'Leto This is a tragedy.. Rudy’s is the best in the area… my wife Flo and I felt this was home away from home, and we loved and became friends with the staff who always were point on and always warm and friendly… this one really hurts and will take a long time before the pain subsides… last time i felt this way was the closing of Sparky’s in the City…
We truly hope we can catch up with our friends during the next phase of the journey..
I feel a part of my heart has been cut out..
Rudy’s FOREVER in our hearts and minds.😞😞😞
Frank Rivers Rudy's was amazing. I got to know the staff a bit over the years, and they were always great. They so knew what I liked (thank you Rudy's for all the iced tea 😉 and Popeyes Idahos). And for the bottle cap table 😍 too ! And Jack P Kern loved it too !
Meredith Scheff-king You fueled so many light nights building art in warehouses, when nothing else was there for us. Thank you.
Angela Brito Baldwin This makes my heart so sad. What a loss to the community. Such an amazing place. I'm sad I didn't get to go there one last time. Really going to miss it.
Susan Ford So very sorry to hear this. It was a Saturday morning ritual for many years.
Thiago Henrique Da Silva This place gave me the opportunity to have my first job in USA 🇺🇸 !!!! I didn’t know English or Spanish, and Rudy’s gave me the opportunity to learn how to speak English, and Spanish and more then that gave me the strength and confidence to persue my American dream.
I also found great 😌 friends and we all built wonderful memories together ,and for that I always will be thankful. Obrigado Rudy’s ❤️ we will miss you 😢
Laurie Frayre Thank you for the delicious food, the friendly service, and for accommodating our dogs and bringing them water so we could enjoy dining on your patio together. I'm very sorry that you're closing, and I wish you happiness and success in your future endeavors.
Mark Fritzel Amazing spot. That is going to leave a big void in our east bay community. Great, great memories.
Jerry Habib That’s a total bummer to hear. I really liked you guys and wish I could have gotten out there more. Really gonna miss you guys
Emily Duffy You will all be greatly missed! I mourn the loss of my favorite diner of all time.
April Kenton Nooooo!!!!! This is heartbreaking. Thank you to everyone who served, cooked, cleaned, and served as a support system to me and my friends before or after shows all these years
Erin Fitzgerald-Fortner This is so sad. Thanks, Mike, for giving my daughter such special memories on top of a great meal every time.
Dan Thornhill This is super sad news 🙁 visited Rudy's both times I've come over from the UK , loved your food 💚
Kristen Leonard Borgen I only went once while in Oakland for a night a few years ago, but I’ve thought of that Benedict many times since. Hands down, the best breakfast I’ve had at a restaurant ever. This is sad news! I’m so sorry.
Pearl Penumaka I’m so sad. The best challah French toast.
Jenn Wagner Bennett Say it ain’t so! As longtime E’ville Besler Building residents, we still come back to visit whenever we’re in town. Will miss you, Rudy’s. Thanks for so many great memories (and all of the Reubens)!
Vincent Lane Thank you so much for so many great meals and great times. You will be missed.
Jon Bastian terrible news, you'll be missed!!!!!!!!!!
Ken Wagovich When I lived in the Bessler Bldg. Rudy's was just a short walk away. I ate there constantly!
Naeem Chaudhry I'm not a regular customer (I'm in LA) but was pretty regular whenever I visited the East Bay. Sorry to see you go, but thank you for the wonderful memories and food.
Barak Engel I spent so much time in the early days of my company at Rudy's (and Doyle up the street)... So many meetings. Ceasar, those ridiculously crispy seasoned fries and a Jesse. Heavy heart indeed.
Billy Ribak Thank you for the years of support to the community and our Three O'Clock Rock program.
Green Day Italy - Italian Rage and Love This is heartbreaking. Rudy's Can't Fail was on my ''must-see'' list on a future United State journey. You'll be missed. <3
Lizzie Havok So sad to hear this. Had a great time on visits there. Best of luck to all the staff in the future.
Deann Mitchell We love you Rudy’s! ❤️
I Am Rudy (forever)
Meghan Munn I asked for only plain coffee there once and I got a nice side of fries with it because they could tell I didn’t eat yet and the coffee money was all I had on me. 2009 was not a easy year for me.
Ohad Kanne Me and my wife were just there today, on 8/8.
We met Doug, the local manager. He was kind and warm towards us, even if you could easily tell that his heart was broken. He was kind enough to give us copies of the last full menu (including drinks. Gonna try to recreate the Shakin' Jesse).
He was in a hurry to complete the closure procedures, but we were able to talk to him for a bit. He said that one of the main causes for the closure was (Take a wild guess):
The pandemic. It wasn't his choice to close Rudy's either, as his hands were tied.
I wish him and the rest of the crew the best of luck in their futures. All wonderful people that have provided a wonderful service to Emeryville for 20 years.
We are all Rudy 🧡
Kate Sam Noel Ross We always enjoyed stopping at Rudy's when we were in town, or just passing through. We'll miss you, and wish everyone there all the best in their future future endeavors.
Jason L. Gohlke Sad to mark the end of the Rudy’s era in both Oakland and now Emeryville. So many great meals with great people there, including countless dates (and a rehearsal dinner!) with Dawn. Thanks for everything.
Sara Maggio Tercero Wow guys! I am heartbroken by this news tonight. I loved my time at Rudy’s with the owners and staff. You guys were my family for a decade and always will be xoxo
Noooooo, so many nights after work spent here, I'm glad I at least got to go last month when we were there 😭
Nicole Waters My favorite restaurant in the world. Heartbroken.
Ariel Genovese Heck! Is this effective immediately or is there a final day? I’m hoping to come in for one last milkshake and plate of fries 🤞🏻
Beffy Stinson Wieman If you could have served breakfast virtually, I would have been there everyday!
Shawn Miller There’s an obvious joke to be made here, but It’s waaay too soon to make it.
Thank you, Rudy.
Ryan Carbrey That sucks. The chance that I'd be able to go to Rudy's was the best thing about crossing into the East Bay. This place was fantastic.
Tiffini Chow My family and I have so many great memories there. So sad to hear this - thanks to an amazing staff for years of great food, great service and the most welcoming vibe.
Paul Loscavio Peace on the Journey! … and thank you for so many great memories over the years!
Nammie Do Such a sad day to learn that you are closing effective immediately. My family and I moved to Oakland 12 years ago, and Rudy’s has been our main staple! It’s the very first restaurant we found when we moved here and it’s been our “comfort” place these past years. THANK YOU for creating such a warm environment with delicious, no-fuss food. We send our thanks and appreciation to all of the staff and management!!!
Alice Wheeldon George Nooooo!! It was always one of my dreams to visit, (I’m from England), for the last 18 years! 😔
Kathleen Dawley You will be missed!! Thank you years of great food and service.
Becky Lasneski Walter 😭 I'm so so sorry I was never able to visit Ruby's as well as California. With the uniqueness of your menu, decor, good service, I was hoping you'd be in biz forever. Good luck to everyone in your future endeavors. I wish you all the best. 😢💔
Rosie Nelson Nooooooo! Glad I got to eat there as often as I did and doubly glad I was able to take family and friends there over the years, thank you for all the wonderful food 💛
Emalie Huriaux So sad to hear. Many good memories there. My friend helped with the construction and she made some of the resin tables. End of an era.
Aska Ohtsuka Oh man 😢
So many great memories and satisfied food babies🫄
Hope all the staff are supported and taken care of
Carlos Collins Thank you for all the great meals and memories over the years. Your staff was always great. My wife, Michelle Conley Collins and I thank you.
Michelle Myers This was JUST posted 3 days ago! And then not even 2 days later u announce your permanent & immediate closure?! We r all so saddened and upset! Couldn’t u give us all just one last chance for a farewell meal?? Will u be selling off your decor and merch? Would love a piece of memorabilia 💔😭
Alessio Mauro Pisu Delicious!
