Review from Eleanor B.

Occasionally, I find the helpful remarks next to the yelp stars (A-Ok!, etc) a little off the mark, but I still feel like a place merits whatever ranking I give it. Have to say, this time around, the "Meh. I've experienced better." is right on the money.
That is to say, Rudy's isn't the WORST, but it's definitely not the best. And if I didn't work one floor above it and sometimes (ok, often) I don't bring my lunch and sometimes (ok, all the time), it rains in Halifax, the lure of the one flight down lunch run ropes me (and half my co-workers in). Like all those parentheses? This is what it's like having a conversation with me. Annoying, apparently.
Anyway, onto the restaurant: they do cater, and I totally have no idea what that's like. It may be awesome. I really hope it is. I tend to run down for a sandwich/soup combo. I always get the grilled cheese (because, really, how bad can you mess that up) and it's pretty good. Very cheesy and buttery and satisfying. And for a mere $5, you get soup too. Have had a couple of different kinds (turkey rice, broccoli) and they're... ok. A little salty, in my opinion and just kinda meh. They always have a big board of specials, and feature turkey dinner on Fridays (which seems to be a favourite of other patrons).
So, why so low, you ask? You didn't have a terrible experience and service is always friendly and efficient? And I'll say that it's solely because the lunch scene is pretty saturated in downtown Halifax. I can walk to any number of places about 2 minutes from my office (tops - - and walking sloooowly) and get the same kind of food. And most of the time, it'll be yummier.
So even though I work a mere 20 steps from the place, I'll still likely go elsewhere for lunch.Listed in: 30 Days of Yelp
