About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Innovative
  • Great for creative cocktails
Rudi grew up on the west coast. They have tasted the fruits of far off lands. Scents, sounds, images and the energy of the World’s most magnificent cities. Cities with a history. A culture. With roots. With experience.

They bring this experience home with a sense of wonder and curiosity. Of longing and searching for their own identity. One they are committed to discover through craft and experimentation. To understand and discover their own identity. Their own version of their lineage.

The medium for this exploration is food. Not to replicate their great grandmother’s Rouladen, but to create something new, that would make her proud.

All dishes are designed for sharing, and are served when they are ready. We do our best to accommodate allergies however cannot guarantee anything without prior notice.

    Rudi was a wonderful experience from the moment we walked in - friendly staff , knowledgeable attentive servers . The tapas style menu had great choices plus you can have larger portions as well that are also on the menu .. I particularly liked the beef carpaccio and the croquettes .. presentation was very nice. Lots of great choices to share . Highly recommend for a great dining experience !!

    Went on the advice of friends. Took my sister while she was in town. It was a perfect Monday evening. Service wonderfully attentive, genuine, and not in our faces. Great recommendations for food choices and quantity. Presentation and flavours - yummy.

    Our experience was just delightful. The waitress was charming and fun, and the family-style menu was gorgeous. A cute little candle with the plate of snookerdooles and a quiet”Happy Birthday” capped our evening perfectly.

    Decent restaurant with a great ambiance. The dishes we ordered were a bit of a hit and miss. The homemade focaccia was excellent as was. Boston leaf salad. For mains we had the risotto which was quite good; the ravioli which was “meh “- very little flavour; the Ling Cod which was well prepared but way too salty (and i like salt) Rudi shines as a cocktail / wine bar - interesting drink concoctions and an excellent, carefully curated wine list which is also reasonably priced ..:and a great atmosphere and vibe

    This was our first time at Rudi. We reserved bar seating. It was a busy Friday night so a bit loud but a great atmosphere, good music. Service and food were exceptional. Very professional staff and amazing food. We had the cheese board, focaccia, Belgian endive salad and ling cod - all were fantastic!
