We had a morning of running around trying to get breakfast or pastries at a couple of places and…read moreended up striking out, so we figured why not try Rudy's or Tony Packo's instead. Tony's opened later than Rudy's, so Rudy's it was. The staff was nice and accommodating, and while I did look at the breakfast options, I decided while in Rome...get a dog at a place called Rudy's Hot Dog. I had a dog with chili, onions, cheese, and mustard. It was pretty darn good. Beef...breakfast of champions?

Jeeeeez, this place is FILTHY!…read more As I was waiting for the hot dog chef to acknowledge my presence, I was looking around the food prep area and noticed that the place was filthy. There were bits of cheese, sauce, and mustard all over the prep area where they make the dogs. There was grunge all over the grill and the floor was dirty. As I was "received" by her majesty, the hot dog chef/queen, I saw her place my dog buns directly into the cheese, sauce, mustard grunge on her prep area. I asked her to start over and to place my dogs on a plate, not the prep surface. Seriously, the kids need to learn that these surfaces need to be wiped down after every order or at least when the surfaces become soiled. As I rounded the corner, I went to grab some silverware. Soup spoons and knives. No forks, no teaspoons. I also noticed that the milkshake machine was also encrusted with goo. As I waited for the cashier to pay up, I waited and waited and then waited some more. He was busy helping the girl assemble someone's drive through order. So, he was handling money and food... Nice. I never saw him (or anyone) wash their hands. At this point, I'm not sure why I didn't walk out. I guess I was just really hungry for some hot dogs. So, I used to go to Rudy's with my grandmother every other week or so. She loved hot dogs as much as I do. She passed away 10 years ago, and I really slowed down in how many times I would go to Rudy's. Grandma couldn't see or I'm sure she would have wanted to go elsewhere. That said, we usually went to the Rudy's on Sylvania or on Summit. They were the cleanest. Now, the other Rudy's really need to clean up their act and clean prep surfaces as needed. They need to sweep and mop the floors and clean the equipment before the end of the day (please confirm it does get cleaned at least once per day...). I can't say that after eating my 2 dogs that it was worth it. The "kids" working there were rude, the place is filthy and it was $10 bucks for 2 dogs and an order of onion rings. Next time I want chili dogs, I'll just make my own.

And the menu consists of dogs, chips and root beer. No fries. When I ordered my almost 3 year old a hot dog with ketchup and mustard it was so overly loaded with ketchup that he could not feed himself, and I had to hold the dog and feed him. Absolutely ridiculous. For 5 dogs and a large root beer, it was $17. The dogs were meh. The service was not worth the tip I had to give before service was completed. Smh. I won't do that again. I had to flag down another server in order to get the tray on the window taken back so I could leave. My server never came back after she got her money.

Rudy's has apparently been around for a long time and has 3 locations…read more This was my first visit. The drive-thru was busy so we decided to eat inside. The interior is a step back in time to maybe the 70's. Lots of indoor seating. You order at the counter and wait while they prepare it. Service took awhile because they were doing the drive-thru traffic. Once we got our food we waited at the end of the counter to pay, sort of cafeteria style. My all beef King dog was very filling. And the onion rings were fried to perfection. My hubs said the chili cheese dog was tasty. The prices are very affordable. So if you are looking for cheap eats this is your place. Oh and "Weenie Wednesdays " dogs are $2 all day!

There were also 5 adults in line, but not all together. None of them were able to order because a small middle aged man, who appeared to be in charge, was screaming at a young man who was also behind the counter. Most of his language consisted of cuss words. The family folks quickly asked that the screaming and cussing be stopped. The young man who was the target of this tirade also asked the supervisor to stop this behavior in front of the children. Within a couple of minutes, those of us in line, rapidly left the building, in fear that we may be soon witnessing a physical fight or worse. On the way out the door, we were asked by those in the drive through what the hold up was. When they were told, they started to leave. Thought that ownership should know what is going on at this store. This situation was totally one sided. No one should have to put up with that kind of treatment.

The hot dog buns were so stale they crunched when I chewed it. The sides were 100% dbl dipped in the fryer. The onion rings were so Greasy I couldn't eat them and the fries were dry. Like you bit into them and there was no moisture. Waste of money. None of it was good. Also the ketchup bottles were disgustingly caked at the top with ketchup and the bottles themselves were incredibly greasy. We were there early in the day. The filth was definitely not from that day meaning these things aren't getting wiped down daily which is foul. Whoever manages this restaurant should be fired.
