Russell’s was founded in 1930 in Elmwood Park, Illinois. The original building and its classic neon lettering, smokestack chimney, and wooden booths are historical icons amongst fans and neighbors. …
1st time ordering from Russell's. Generous portions & reasonably priced. Food was flavorful and seasoned well. I put my side of cole slaw on the pulled pork sandwich - awesome! Cole slaw isn't a puddle of mayo. Really good flavor. Cheesesteak will definitely be my next order (hubby ate that). Will definitely order from them again!

The rib tips were good, although I would've wanted it to be a bit more charred but the flavors were good. they also gave us a big batch of bbq sauces which were gooood. The cook on the fries were perfect but it needed a little bit more seasoning or just salt.

The meal was cooked just right. The shrimp were tasty and crunchy. The potato and hot corn were excellent sides. Overall, a good meal wrapped carefully and promptly delivered. Thank you.

I ordered a meat plate Brisket & Pulled Chicken with2 sides and 1/2 chicken plate All meat was extremely dry and not edible. Coleslaw tasted like pure vinegar and fries tasted like they were days old. I'm not one who normally leaves reviews but I was highly disappointed.
