    We went for a birthday. The decor and noise level was comfortable and not overly loud. Our waiter was great at explaining the menu. Unfortunately, my steak was overcooked more medium well to well than medium thus making it dry and unappealing. The waiter didn’t come back in time for me to notify him. My husband ordered the special a filet with scallops and a sauce. It showed up without any just a steak and had it been ordered correctly the executive chef who was checking each order as it left the kitchen should have caught it. The waiter offered a dessert for the table due to the mistake. We asked for our steaks (half of each) and a side of macaroni and cheese to be boxed up. It was taken away and apparently thrown out. When we inquired the waiter got us one new steak. We were not given additional Mac and cheese. The bills came and between the two couples some items were on the wrong bills. While not significant it was just one more thing in a long list of errors that made the pricey bill seem not worth it. The Caesar salad and bread pudding were amazing. Unfortunately for the price the level of service and attention to detail was lacking. The final note was the waiter asking for cash tips “while not required cash is appreciated”.

    This was our first time dining at Rudy's and we've already made a second and third reservation. The food was delicious. The restaurant is gorgeous and the ambience is chic, but I must say our server, Nathan, set the tone for our entire evening and played a significant role in our very positive overall dining experience. It is very easy to spot a skilled server versus one that is not, and he was amazing

    Everything was amazing. The filet as the best I’ve ever had. The Waygu ribeye was good not great but everything else made up for it. Drinks are all top shelf. Amazing dinner and experience. We will be back.

    This was my third time at Rudy's and as always, the food was excellent. The salmon was delicious, the mac and cheese was very good, and the carrot cake, yum, yum! Always a great visit!

    This was our first time dining at Rudy's Steakhouse. I was excited to check it out since we heard great things about it. The place itself is very nice and has a great atmosphere. Sadly, though, we were not impressed by the end of our meal. While the service was excellent, some of our food was disappointing. First off, I started with the shrimp cocktail, and it was not firm and white like most shrimp you get. It had a mushy texture and a tinge of grey color to it. It grossed me out, honestly. It tasted fine, but I couldn't get over the texture. It was almost like they rapidly unfroze them, and they didn't have time to dry out completely. For my meal, I had Caesar salad (I wasn't that hungry). They use some purple romaine leaves, which is fine, but it was wilted and looked like it was on its last days. I thought the salad might have been a grilled Caesar due to its appearance, but that wasn't the case. I should have complained, but I didn't want to be that person. The sides here are very yummy. We had carrots, french fries, and Brussels sprouts. My husband's steak was ok, nothing special, and it came undercooked to his liking. Another thing that irked me was that I ordered a club soda with lime, and instead of bringing me a soda from the gun at the bar, they brought me a big glass bottle of it without even asking me, which I find very odd. It is just one additional unnecessary cost. The prices of everything here are not cheap, and I have no problem paying this kind of price IF the food is worth it. IMO, it's not here. I'm hoping they work out all their kinks in the months to come because I'd like to try it again, but right now, I won't be going back for a while. They also need to work on some of the items on the menu. There is a lot of stuff you can't get here that is a staple at any other steakhouse.

    Great service and food was absolutely delicious! I had the mac & cheese with lobster and my husband had the filet mignon with Rudy’s stake sauce. 100% recommend!

    Everything was excellent, however, the place was loud with high ceilings. Very expensive, everything was ala carte, even bread. Expect $$$&.
