History
Rudy's Can't Fail Cafe opened in 2002 in Emeryville, CA with a second location in Uptown Oakland near the Fox Oakland Theatre since 2011. The original location in Emeryville was originally Eugene's Ranch which was open for 36 years under Eugene Lee and was still serving its $1.95 2 egg breakfast in 1990. Eugene's daughter Priscilla approached Jeffery Bischoff, a customer, to see if he would like to purchase the restaurant. 13 years later, Rudy's is an institution in Emeryville and a well known Bay Area diner.
Rudy's BLAT sandwich (a BLT with avocado) was featured on Lonely Planet's A field guide to 20 great American sandwiches.
