About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Neighborhood gem
Great for fine wines

Known as chef to the winemakers, Chef Russell Lowell is a hands on chef. Cutting all our proteins in house during the day and working the grill at night. He creates a menu that considers seasonality and wine pairings. We are a local favorite in the Bothell area. Located in a historic hay barn, we are the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion or a date night away from the kids.

We had a fabulous time dining last night at Russell’s. From the darling and gracious hostess to our wonderful in every way server, Zach, to the adorable busboy who really did put an extra scoop of mashed potatoes in our doggie box (we were kidding when we asked). The food was delicious and the servings generous but it would not have been as special without the charming polite staff! Good job, Russell!!!

Great night for our anniversary celebration. The special which was hai it was cooked perfect and was light and flakey. The filet is just the best in Seattle. Teriyaki beef tips are so good, it could be a meal of its own. The crème brûlée is always a last dish favorite of ours. Highly recommend Russell’s for your special night out.

Great food and service as always. Would like to see the main dishes and sides on the menu change from time to time but have always enjoyed what we have ordered. Great drinks!

My wife and I chose this restaurant to celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary, drawn in by the many positive reviews online. Unfortunately, our experience did not live up to the hype. While the food was undeniably excellent—worthy of praise—the service left much to be desired. From the moment we were seated, our server was unwelcoming, inattentive, and lacked basic hospitality. We were not properly greeted, and throughout the evening, it felt as though we were being overlooked. When another couple was seated beside us, the stark contrast in treatment was impossible to ignore. It genuinely made us question whether our experience was influenced by bias, as we were the only Asians in the group. To make matters worse, despite the high prices, there was no complimentary dessert or special acknowledgment of our anniversary—something we’ve always received at other restaurants on this occasion. Even after mentioning it to our server, we were met with nothing more than a dismissive smirk and a hollow "Happy Anniversary" that lacked any sincerity. A special occasion should feel special, and this restaurant failed to deliver that. While the food was great, the service was disappointing enough that we won’t be returning. Sadly, this was our first and last visit, and we cannot recommend it to others.

We absolutely LOVED our Father's Day dinner at Russell's. We went last year and our server was so excellent that when I booked the table, I asked for him! One of the special things he did last year was share some peanut M&Ms with us - it seems silly, but it made the world of difference to our dining experience as he was so generous and so kind! Well, after dinner last night, he brought out mini bags of peanut M&Ms once again for us! Of course, we still ordered their INCREDIBLE desserts off the menu, but it was just a sweet gesture. hH also stayed past his shift so he could serve us. We tipped well as he was worth it! Also, the food is so good. This is a hidden gem and I highly recommend this place!
