Russo's

Wonderful wonderful wonderful. Great food from their oysters to their pastas and Cajun. Left feeling satisfied and wanting to return soon. The atmosphere was inviting and lively. The open kitchen was a spectacular view and the staff was quick and friendly. It’s off the beaten path slightly but once you’re inside you feel emerged into the Cajun smells and ready to dig into some amazing meals.

I heard a lot of great things about this place and was excited to try it. I made reservations for 7 arrived early was sat right away which was nice however, we waited over 15 minutes before we were even greeted by a server. After taking our drink order we waited another 15 minutes or more for our drinks which were warm. When our food finally came the portions were such a disappointment for the price and all the food was cold. Over all we were there for over two hours most of it was just waiting for warm drinks and cold food. As we were leaving I noticed the server was hanging out up front with what appeared to be regulars at the bar. All around was a terrible experience for over priced mediocre food

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Sat at the bar and enjoyed drinks, conversations with other (regular) patrons.. John is excellent in service and drinks. Raw oysters, VooDoo oysters fabulous. Fresh shrimp and pasta,, seafood creole were delicious. Our first visit but not our last for sure. Lisa also stopped by to answer our questions and give us background on the restaurant. Top three place for us after our first visit.

(5-22 Update)- Russo's has lost some talent (Sheela, and perhaps others). Good/ tanlented People make Russo's. Hope to see some new/ good talent soon - did not see it today. Took away a star today. (3-22 Update)- Nice to see Russo's returning back to pre-COVID ambience. Prices seem a bit higher, but that's expected - thanks Brandon. <Previous Review>Russo's has survived the pandemic, and slowly returning back. Food + Margarita was good.. expensive, but worth it. Place is bigger than what you see from the street. Menu changes at times, but always good. Call ahead and make a reservation to play it safe. Well stocked bar, ask for your preferred drink, regardless if it is not on the menu.
