I just visited Russo's yesterday, seems to be some controversy between the various Russo's Restaurant owners in the upstate New York area. I thought I wold investigate, and I found that their grilled Panini sandwich to be very good, very different from the usual fair. I will be going back for lunch again, my first experience was very good also, I stopped for dinner, and was very happy with the service and the food.

Hi,
Yes I went there this past Friday night with a party of five including two kids. The food was very good. Very nice owners. The owner Joe Russo is the chef and he has experience from his family's restaurant (Russo's of Amsterdam). We like the Bruschetta and the Eggplant Parm in particular. My daughter's sausage was also very good and definitely homemade. In fact the bread, sauce, everything was homemade. The atmosphere is beautiful and much brighter than Brindisi's (the former restaurant there), with gleaming floors, cheerful colored walls, nice lighting. Good menu and not expensive at all. A few nice kids dishes too. They had only been open for six days and the business side of things needed minor sorting out (Air Conditioning was poor and maybe a bit short-staffed) but the food and attitude of staff were excellent. Much better food than Brindisi's in my opinion.›1 Reply-
