When some of the food had horseradish flavor (which we didn’t know when we ordered) we couldn’t eat it and they replaced it. The service was great!

Christina is the most attentive server! We return to this restaurant because the food is consistently the best, the environment is delightful, and the attention to detail is superb. They made me the best chocolate martini with a bourbon cream combination. Delicious. The filet mignon is always superb And a linguine with artichokes, cherry tomatoes, and spinach is delightful. I took the servers recommendation and added mushrooms. A total win!

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+++
