Place was empty but took forever to get food. Ordered plain BLT on white bread. Came out toasted and dry as a bone one slice of tomato. $18. Nope. Side salad with eggs Benedict with no dressing. Rest of the other 4 meals were equally unimpressive for the money. Hard to understand why all the food didn’t come out at the same time. Disappointing because this place is usually great.

We really enjoyed our visit to Russell’s. The bartenders were friendly, food was delicious and our server, Brandon, did an excellent job. The restaurant was extremely busy that evening, so wait time on the food was a bit extended, nonetheless it arrived to the table hot, fresh and tasty. Will definitely return.

What a lovely way to spend a Sunday morning. The drinks, food and service all great. Eggs Benedict over priced; there are better things on the menu.
