    The best place for a lobster dinner! Husband wanted to celebrate his 64th birthday with a lobster dinner and chocate mousse at Rudy's. So that is what we did and everything was 100% perfect. From the delicious lobster to the chocolate mousse, our server made sure we had everything we needed. We will always turn to Rudy's for celebrating, time and time again.

    Had a great time there for dinner with family. Rudy’s one of those places you forget about because it’s located in an unusual spot. But once you go, we keep forgetting how good the food is. I know they’re known for lobster but King crab legs & prime rib is one of the best I’ve had.

    We wanted to celebrated our 12th wedding anniversary at Rudy’s hideaway .We love the atmosphere the delicious food and drink’s. We couldn’t forget about our server Reese She was amazing always there to help us with any questions we might have had about the menu, making sure our drinks were full and our food was prepared the way we order it. We love all the staff at Rudy’s everyone is so friendly professional and always making sure everyone is being taking care of. The prime rib is always a 10 out of 10 every time Cheers!!!

    Rudy’s Hideaway is a hidden gem that’s been there since 1970. They have the best Cioppino, clam chowder, and lobster. My wife loves their steaks too.

    The food was horrible from the appetizers to the mash potatoes. The margarita were horrible as were awful taste with lack of tequila and lime flavor. The prime rib was good but bland and the lobster was okay.

    Hi Amanda, Did you let your server know that you were unhappy with.....well... everything? It doesnt seem like we could have made it right for you but perhaps given the chance we could have found something you may have liked??

    Previous visits were excellent. Server was very good. Unfortunately the lobster tails did not measure up to previous experiences. Lobster tails were stringy and meat was not firm. Side dishes were very good. Disappointed in the lobster this time.
