Rudino’s Pizza Grinders & Sports

Great place to hang out with friends. Trivia is fun and the beer is always cold. Service is A-​1.

I went there with a couple of co workers for a late lunch. I had the roast beef grinder. I ordered the large so i could take half home. The bread was awesome. My co workers liked their orders as well. I would definitely go back next time to try the italian roll.

Awesome food! My coworkers and I would always pick a good time to visit this place; we know it takes a little while for the food to come out because everything is made fresh; main issue is the service, there are times when the server just messes everything up!

This is right next to the Audi Connection in Montgomery and acts as a better waiting area than the dealership itself. I had their small sandwich and it was still way too big to finish. I can’t imagine who orders and finishes the large sandwiches. The food quality was passable. I’ll stop in again next time my car is getting maintenance.

We go here to watch the Cleveland Browns and they don’t hold that against us. Lol. But the food is good. Wait staff is attentive. The Italian rolls are our favorite.

The food is good… even much better than good at times. But as some of the other reviewers have mentioned, service is quite hit-​or-​miss. My poor better half, I think all of the times I have gone with him, it’s been a miss. Once we came in the back entrance and grabbed a table. We sat there for quite a while and were almost ready to leave when a party came in through the front door, catching someone’s attention in the back and when the server finally walked by, he saw we were seated and said something along the lines of «Oh, I didn’t even see you come in». If they checked on their tables a bit more (refills, food OK?, etc), we probably would not have been missed. The next time we put our order in fairly quickly, but we didn’t see our server again she brought our food, well after a couple of parties that ordered after us got their food. There was never a check to see if we needed water refills, and our glasses sat empty for quite a while and when a refill was requested at the final food delivery, my hubby’s glass disappeared for at least 5 minutes before being returned. However, when I’ve gone without my bad luck charm… um…I mean the best husband ever… service has not been a problem.
I like the fact that due to the lack of fryer, everything is baked. Somehow I convince myself that since the fries are baked, it offsets the mounds of cheese and bacon they are covered in. And the homemade ranch is wonderful. I have never had the pizza, but my friend raves about it, especially since you can order custom slices… freshly made! I have stuck with grinders, mainly sticking with their interpretation of a french dip. The «smaller» portion is still 9 inches and a good value.
So I will return, even with the hubby. The food is definitely worth it. We just know that if we go, we need to make sure we don’t go super hungry or somehow on a timeline where we might have to be somewhere in the somewhat near future.

Went there to watch the Buckeyes game yesterday. Ordered a grilled chicken salad, which was just OK. My girlfriend ordered a pizza grinder, which was also just alright.
Bartender was nice and courteous. He kept checking up on us. We did enjoy ourselves at this quiet little bar in Montgomery. I would definitely go back if I was trying to watch a game.

If you can’t enjoy a meal here with your family or have a drink and relax at the bar, then I suggest you stay at home. The first time I came to this place I was greeted by Jason and ordered an IPA. A month later I stopped in and not only did Jason know my name, he also remembered I ordered an IPA and asked if I was having one again. I’ve been to a lot of places and that’s never happened before. The food for the price is the best in town as everything is made fresh. The background music playing overhead was from a local band called Bourbon and Rakes, so this shows they care about the community along with local sports team sponsorships. This is a family friendly place with a professional staff.

Been coming here regularly for two years… Simply because the food is always great, the staff and service superior to most sports bars, the owner always makes sure we’re happy. It’s the ONLY place to go in Montgomery that’s not overpriced and/​or full of snobs. Village Tavern has great happy hour… but service is horrible, food average and just dirty

The Good: Plenty of TV’s, large variety of «grinders», good beer selection.
The Bad: Slow service
Rudino’s is a sports bar located in the heart of Montgomery. It is located on Montgomery Rd. and the location provides for convenient parking in both the front and back of the business. The inside of the restaurant has the typical makeup of a sport’s bar with many large screen TV’s, a good draft beer selection, and local high school sport’s memorabilia on the walls. The menu has the everything from wings and pizza, to a wide variety of sandwich «grinders» that comes with a bag of chips or an upgrade to fries for $.99.
My wife and I went there on a busy Saturday night. All the tables were occupied except for the one next the kitchen. There isn’t a greeting station so you have to find your own seats and on some occasions it takes a while for a server to notice you come in. We ordered the Italian Rolls as an appetizer, which are the equivalent of jumbo pizza bites served with marinara sauce. The order came out hot and tasted very good. We both ordered a grinder with fries. Although the order didn’t come out correct, it was still hot and the fries tasted like they just came out of the oven. The food has been good for the few times that we have been there. The only downside is the service slows down when it gets crowded. The evening we went, it was a packed house but only two servers were working the floor. They seemed a bit overwhelmed but did make the effort to be helpful with every table. This seems to be the case on the few weekends that we have dined there with only two servers to cover the entire restaurant. Overall it was a pleasant experience and we will probably be back in the future. Rudino’s is a typical sport’s bar that delivers a typical sport’s bar experience.

Wow! Just started coming to this place. Grinders are fantastic. Pizza great. Need to lower the lights a bit for better ambiance but really a neat place. Been back twice we started coming.

Solid. I had a big day at work, was craving pizza, thought I deserved a reward, so I ended up here. Rudino’s feels a bit like a non-​corporate Mellow Mushroom — lots of sports. I sat at the bar and watched the Ohio State basketball game. Bartender was nice, but maybe a little too outgoing… called everyone bro’, and assumed a familiarity that wouldn’t be a turn on for strangers. I had a Bell’s Two-​Hearted and a Royale, which is sort of their version of a Supreme. Thinnish crust (think hand-​tossed) that is stout enough for some toppings. Solid-​tasting toppings. A little pricey for what you get — I think it was $ 16 for an 12″ pie. I ate the whole thing, but that was a stretch for me. I would return here; it was good.

Great pizza, but my favorite thing on the menu has to be the Italian roll! The staff is always friendly and the owner, Tom always stops by and says hello. My only gripe would be that they need a larger selection of draft beer. Overall, a great place!

Went here for a late night bite and they had GLUTEN-​FREE CRUST! light and crunchy, and topped with yummy yummy cheese, spinach and olives. They forgot to put feta on the pizza :(but we were halfway through eating when we noticed, because the pizza was soooo deeeLICIOUS!!!

We went to Rudino’s last night even though the Reds weren’t playing. Been there before for a Red’s game and enjoyed the crowd and the tvs behind the bar. Last night we went for a quick pizza. My daughter is going gluten-​free and was pleased to find that they had a gluten-​free crust available (though he had to check to see if they had some). And my daughter said it was very good! My husband and I ordered a large pizza and it was very cheesy and on the thinner-​crust side. Very good! I should know better than to order wine at a mostly beer pizza place. I ordered a chardonnay. They had two and I asked for the drier of the two. I did not drink much of it. Should have ordered a beer! Would definitely go back since it’s not far from home. But will order pizza and beer next time!

Rudino’s is a nice local addition to the Montgomery scene. I’ve had tried both pizzas and grinders; both are top notch and the chicken wings rival the Silver Spring House. Great for both families and regulars; I highly recommend Rudino’s!

We used to spend a lot of time and money there. Even though the drinks and pizzas are unreasonably expensive, we enjoyed the convenience and the service. Unfortunately, the owner has terrible management skills and shows no appreciation to loyal customers. Be careful that you get what you ordered and check your bill. We will never go back.

This is a great spot for a relaxing drink after work or a round of golf. The Pizza is excellent and tasted very fresh and was well cooked. The staff are all very friendly.

I really enjoy going to Rudino’s! The food here is always good and the portion sizes are great too!
The owner is super nice and is always hanging out and willing to get to know his customers.
I usually order the California club sandwich and a slice of cheese pizza.
They have a lot of parking area front and back.
Rudino’s has a nice patio out front for dining.
I also found out the last time that I was dining there that they keep the kitchen open until 1 a.m.
Rudino’s offers trivia on their T.V.s I think that trivia night is on Thursdays. But if you ask for a trivia remote they will let you play anytime.
Rudino’s also has great specials on drinks too.

Rudino’s looks like a typical sports bar, but the menu proves overwise. The pizza is fresh made dough and the toppings are high quality and plentiful. The BBQ Chicken, Buffalo Chicken and plain old cheese are my favorites!
They have a pretty large indoor eating area with TONS of TV’s. I am not a sports fan really so I don’t care, but you might! They also have an ourdoor eating area. Its location is a little odd since it’s basically in the front parking lot, so you may be sitting next to a car. BUT, it’s covered and also has a big screen TV for your viewing pleasure.
If the front lot is full, they have additional parking in back.
