Whether you're here for the epic cocktail list or the inventive, palate-pleasing menu, anyone you bring here will find something they like. Classic dishes like Steak Frites (cooked to absolute perfection) have earned high praise from my less-adventurous friends, while small dishes like Foie Gras and Laphroig Terrine delight the foodies. My last visit included a Swordfish steak among the best I've ever tasted.
For a quieter dinner, sit downstairs; I also prefer the downstairs bar, as it's less busy and has a warmer atmosphere. The bar staff is attentive, personable (hilarious, actually) and talented at their craft. For the cocktail connoisseur, try the Burgundy Nights (Cherry Infused Macchu Pisco, Creme de Cacao, Lime Juice, Peychaud s Bitters) it's my favorite.
If I've got a friend visiting from out of town, reservations are always immediately made at Russell House.
