Eat at Rudy's is a cute breakfast nook in Old Town Torrance. I'm not sure how busy it gets during…read morethe weekends, but I was fortunate enough to try Eat at Rudy's on a weekday. I just had a brunch here and it's one of those hidden gems that makes you remember that the food in SoCal is the best. I got their pancake sandwich (2 hot cakes, 2 sausages and 2 eggs) and my +1 had their international omelette special with hash. For something so simple, it was amazingly delicious! Portions are large and we needed to ask for a togo box. Hospitality is great here too. For our visit, there was one cook at the open kitchen and two very friendly servers at the restaurant. It was only us and 2-3 other group/couples at Rudy's. Food came out quick and hot. Server checked up on us and refilled my coffee whenever I ran low. Eat at Rudy's is on my highly recommend list for Torrance.

Received our food within 10 minutes. Service was very fast! Took a bite from my Carne Asada burritos with some Onion rings. All was fresh and tasted good! There is no waitress but the workers behind the counter kept checking on us. Refilling our drinks. Overall, this place has great service and good food. The workers are very nice!! Not to mention that the prices are still reasonably low and affordable especially being in a small recession and high inflation. Place is Clean with plenty of seating and parking!

It was busy at 7:30am but still had seating available, and it wasn't overwhelmingly loud. Seating and tables were clean. Staff was super attentive and kind.

This place has been around since the 40s and yknow they're doing something right. Also they have a bulgogi house special that I'll be trying next time I stop by.

I've been visiting different locations of this breakfast spot, and this one stands out as having…read morethe best atmosphere in our neighborhood. At many brunch restaurants, you can sometimes sense when the basics -- like pancakes or French toast -- aren't given the attention they deserve. They may look appealing on the menu but feel rushed or underwhelming when served. Here, however, the fundamentals are done right. There's care in the texture, balance, and execution, and that consistency makes all the difference. Weekend mornings often find us slightly sleepy and very hungry, searching for somewhere comforting to begin the day. What we want is warmth and familiarity -- something that feels almost as cozy as staying in bed. And when the craving for sweet carbohydrates hits, we're not looking for restraint. We're looking for soft, fluffy, fully satisfying bites. If that's what you're after, this location delivers. You'll likely leave in a better mood than when you arrived.

I liked the toasted brown spots on the outside of the burrito. The tiramisu pancakes weren't soggy from the soaked coffee/espresso. It had chunks of torn lady fingers on top. The interior inside is bright and fun with lots of decor items like roosters and "eat good"-type signage. They had TVs inside too but they weren't playing anything on them. The service was prompt and we got seated immediately when we came on a Monday. The bad: The blueberry lavender matcha was $8 and was too sweet. I don't think there was outside seating options. The burrito could have used more pico de gallo. It was a good burrito but not outstanding or something I'd order again. The interesting: They sell lots of drink options and lemonades from a different vendor (?) inside. They even had a mangonada!

I give this place a 5 on service of one woman alone, Jean. She is such a delight and this…read morerestaurant is lucky to have her. She seemed to be carrying the load all by herself. (There was a younger woman there and when I waved at her to ask her a question she saw then ignored, and when I went up to pay my bill the younger dark hair girl just said your server will be over to help you and walked away. While my server, Jean was clearly delivering several dishes) Anyways, Jean was friendly, made suggestions, offered small chat, she was warm and welcoming!!! The food... I think I'll give it a 3 1/2 stars. I ordered the chicken sandwich and home fries.

Haven't been here in SO LONG. Can't believe this place has survived through it all. Last time we…read morewere here was over 20 years ago. We still live in the South Bay area but haven't been back here for many years. We decided to pay them a visit and see what's changed. Obviously the prices has changed. Since over 20 years ago, the menu looks a bit different as well. We ordered the cob salad and veggie burger. The salad portion was plenty but the burger could've been better. The price was a bit expensive for the quality and type of food. It was plain salad and the burger was also plain, no flavor or seasoning. Overall the service was decent. The gentleman who served us came back a decent amount of times and helped get us everything we needed. We ordered, ate, and also got a dessert on the way out. Their mini strawberry pie was okay. I would probably go back, hopefully the business remains open.

Came here for dinner and had a really disappointing experience, which is especially unfortunate…read morebecause my wife and I have been coming to this Hof's Hut since we were kids. It's a place that holds a lot of nostalgic memories for us, so it was sad to see it like this. My wife ordered the soup and salad. The salad was fine, but the broccoli cheddar soup was completely inedible -- it was loaded with pepper to the point where she couldn't eat more than a bite. It honestly tasted like someone dumped an entire container of pepper into it. When we mentioned it to our server, instead of acknowledging the issue, he told us that "everyone has been loving the soup today." That came across as dismissive, especially considering she didn't eat it at all. I ordered the meatloaf dinner, which came out cold and extremely salty -- also not good. I still ate it, but it definitely wasn't enjoyable. The server offered to bring a different soup, but didn't offer to remove it from the bill, even though it wasn't eaten. Between the poor food quality and how the issue was handled, this was a pretty bad experience overall -- and honestly disappointing given how much we've enjoyed this place over the years.

Hahaha! We went here because it's a Long Beach icon…read more The breakfast was good (hard to screw up breakfast). My Friday morning breakfast club all enjoyed our meals. Our only complaint is that the restroom facilities for the place are outside the restaurant on the far end of the parking lot ... like an outhouse!!! LMAO! Since our breakfast club are a bunch of old farts every one of us had to make the trip, one twice, so there were complaints all around. It is what it is,,this place has been around for some 70 or 80 years and is a historic site (at least at the city level) and no one would want them alter the building. But none of the guys are asking to go back there. And I don't imagine they will. The service was excellent. An older lady we joked has probably been there since George was the busboy, but that is not fair, she's only in her 50s or 60s. She was attentive and put up with our group of old men, and one in particular who kept trying to flirt with her. I do recommend George's. If you're under 70, the bathroom is not a big deal ... and yes, it was spotless.

The menu is very extensive, with a wide variety of options, and the prices are quite reasonable. The service is excellent--everyone is very courteous, and the establishment is very clean.

One interesting thing is that the restroom is located outside in the parking lot, which caught me off guard at first. But I suppose that might be part of the building's original layout from when it was first established. I've been here multiple times now, and it really feels like a hidden gem. It's a nice little sanctuary where you can just relax, enjoy the food, and soak in the vibe.

The fact that they're opened at 6am is nice, and the breakfast / coffee being delicious is great, but the reason we continue to keep coming here is because of the manager, Manny. For over 2.5 years, Manny has continued to be an exceptional example of what it means to love your job, and love people. Not only does he run a tight ship there, but he is just an all-around joy to encounter, especially that early in the morning. Coming from the service industry myself, he is someone I'd want as the first person you enounter when you walk through the doors. I would highly recommend this place, not only for the food, and the coffee that Manny selectively chooses since he loves coffee himself, but it's an all-around great place, with plenty of clean space, and exceptionally friendly staff, which I believe comes from the top down. Manny, you're the man~!
