Rudy’s Can’t Fail May Just Live Up to Its Name After All - Eater SF
"It was sad news for the longtime East Bay late-night scene when Rudy’s Can’t Fail announced its closure in early August. Yet, it seems that’s not quite the end of Rudy’s story. The E’ville Eye reports that a comeback is in the works for the restaurant, as three former employees are looking to resurrect the space under the Rudy’s name. General manager Doug Smith, along with head chef Guadalupe Rivera, and former sous chef Nelson Ortiz are grouping together to take over the restaurant and a lease for the Emeryville location is being finalized this week. A sign on the door says the trio expects to reopen in October with a menu featuring 'many of our longtime customer favorites.' Maybe Rudy’s Can’t Fail won’t fail after all." - Dianne de Guzman
