Cheap and adequate. The BBQ is just OK not smoked the way I love it but I love their sauce and french fries. Good place for lunch takeout on a paper plate LOL.

Fabulous chicken platter. Our whole group had the half chicken platter served with a roll and fries/side. Delicious and a great price for under $8 per plate. We did take out and had a big feast at home with no...

I have to agree with most other reviewers, I'm giving Russell's 4 stars instead of 3 because of the nostalgia factor. If you didn't grow up frequenting Russell's, you probably won't get it. The BBQ...

As a kid, I lived about 4 blocks from Russell's BBQ in Elmwood Park. I always thought it was a great place from the first time my uncle took me there when I was about 7 years old. The BBQ...

I guess the legendary Mark S. described me to a T in re this place. It was my first time here, and though it was good, I was a little disappointed. That said, I'll definitely be going back sometime to...

This is the second and much newer location of historic Russell's BBQ in Elmwood Park... For people without a history here, this is probably a three star place. But I grew up eating Russell's pork...

This is a pretty good restaurant. I prefer to go here for dinner since the meals here are so big. The service here has always been exceptionally well. The barbeque ribs here are the best!
