"Curtis is awesome!!!! Walked in with a group of 8. He took very good care of us. The pizza was so good and everything came out the same time. Not a single complaint. 10/10 will come back! Thank you so much!!!!"

"Great cocktails, great food! We think the pizza punches WAY above it's weight class. Cocktail and cheese pizza happy hour is our new lil tradition!"

"Service has improved since my last review. My last review was not enthusiastic, but I always believe that local food establishment need a lot of latitude in ratings, especially if they have changed. In the case of the Muddy Rudder, I am proud to have had dinner here tonight! My dinner and drinks were served quickly, and the staff were cordial and very attentive. The Rudder, like many other small restaurants, has pulled through adversity of COVID. These times aren’t easy for any small business, but I endorse and encourage people to come out and support the Rudder and any other small business! My dinner was amazing, I had a small pan Margarita pizza. It came out HOT. The only complaint I can raise is that the pizza was just too darn large! Blasted all, I have excellent left overs! That’s NOT a problem! My advice, come hungry, or be ready to take home a doggy bag. The atmosphere has picked up, it is more festive at this time of year. There are people back at the bar stools. One can have a fun conversation with anyone here. It’s great food, good drinks, and a very relaxed sepia atmosphere. This is the crown jewel of Sellwood!"

"Great local gem. There are bands there on Fridays. Have interesting drinks and nice simple food - sandwiches and pizza. Enjoyed my Bruschetta and my husband had a twist on a BLT. Lots of outdoor seating."
