Russ' Restaurant 1499 East River Road, Muskegon charter Township, MI 49445

"We had a group of 20 plus. We were seated together in the back. Our waitress was quick. She got all our orders correct and we arrived a few minutes before 4pm and we were out by 5pm. With our large group, we thought it may take at least a couple hours! The food was delicious and hot. Oh, and the portions were huge! No one left hungry. Our drinks were kept full and it was a great experience."

"Food reminds me of cafeteria. Very classic. But Desserts and pies are excellent. Service is always good. Always quiet atmosphere with all older people. Prices reasonable."

"Russ' is always on my list of places to stop when I come home. West Michigan (Holland) based chain sort of like a Big Boy but better with great homemade food. Some of the best battered onion rings anywhere. Great breakfast. Known for 1/3lb burgers, grilled sandwiches (Slim Gem, Reuben), entrees like fried chicken, perch, meatloaf or prime rib (once in a while) or hot turkey & beef "sandwiches" with mashed potatoes and gravy. Great soups plus pies and desserts. Disclaimer: I worked here as a cook in and after High School in the mid to late 90's and some of the people I worked with like cooks, managers & waitresses are still here if that says anything about how they are run. I still love coming here."

"Service was very good. Food was good. Wife loved the soup and salad bar. I had the Russ' burger and fries. Was pretty good. Place is clean and a good atmosphere."
