Cocktails and food were great. Pot roast was tender and flavorful with the right amount of fat. Fresh made pasta and shrimp, a special, was excellent. Servers were knowledgeable and attentive. A very nice dinner.

We LOVE Russell's on Macklind. The food and drinks is always great and we always leave with multiple pieces of cake to-go. We got o Russell's every January to celebrate my birthday (because it is a bit of a drive for us to do it more often) and it never disappoints!

We waited over an hour for our food while other tables around us got their food. The server never apologized. It appeared he forgot our order. When we asked where our order was, he had to ask what we ordered and then brought wrong side. So disappointing since I brought 2 friends that had not been before and probably won’t go back.
