    The staff was amazing but the food was pretty bland and my chicken and my friends chicken were both very dry unfortunately. We also both got a frozen cocktail and they both tasted watered down.

    Rang in the New Year at Russo’s, and it was absolutely unforgettable! 🎉 The ambiance was perfect for the celebrations—cozy, yet buzzing with energy. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a great time. The food? Phenomenal as always! The coal-fired pizza and delicious pasta dishes added that extra touch of magic to the night. Cheers to many more amazing evenings at Russo’s!

    The night we went it wasn’t too busy, but apparently they were very shortstaffed. We had one waiter and he was great, but it was obvious he was the only waiter and very busy. The ambience was nice. The food was great and I really have no complaints. We’ll have to give them a try again during the summer when it is nicer out. It was cold and rainy on this particular day.

    They were backed up with seating because lack of employees and no team work at all. It was one thing to wait an hour to get seated & the service was ok at first and food came out at a decent rate because not many tables were seated are being bust or lack of help. Once we get our food, we are pretty much on our own and got no other service. It appeared to the servers got into it one being ours & Took forever to get our check and get boxes so we could get out. I’ll definitely don’t recommend if you don’t have the servers to handle the business. But it was clear that there was no teamwork or initiative of employees helping each other run the business smoothly. Sometimes you have to do things that aren’t your job. I’m sure they would’ve made more money and tips that day if they had.

    Very weird and poor spacing between items taken to the table. Service was very slow. It appears it was due to very poor staffing.

    Had a group of ten for a special event, and it was perfect. The food was excellent and the service was spectacular. We eat here fairly often for the delicious Italian food, but this was the first special event we've had at Russo's. A+++

    Waiter was okay but would forget to bring us silverware, wine & watching TV. Disgusted with the constant flies, which caused me to not finish my food. Food was okay but probably won’t be back.
