The home of America's best mushroom and swiss. Fight me.What a terrific little place. An obvious local hang out. If you get lucky the mutt Mazie will be there with her owners, Steve and Ilene?, and you can get a quick pet in on a pup while yours are at home.The service is excellent. I'm not sure her name but the sassy server we had was awesome. The dude that had the other tables was obviously excellent as well.Have a few beers. Enjoy the phenomenal bar food and just relax. The place is the bomb as the cool kids say.Oh and as an added bonus. Great view of Pike's Peak.

My family of 6 absolutely loved this place. Our server Steven was amazing and super friendly! I got the mushroom swiss, one of the best I've ever had. Hubby got the hot pink and it was also amazing! Onion rings and fries were perfect, chicken tenders were yummy, crispy and perfectly fried! We will be going back for sure before we head back to Texas! Food came out quickly and it all tasted fresh!

It's a bit of a dive and we encountered inebriated clientele as we arrived, however the food and service were the best we have found in the area! The food is fresh and excellent, the kitchen staff obviously takes pride in their excellent fare. Get the sweet potato fries!!!

I have gone here two other times to eat and there were no issues. This time I ordered over the phone for 5 people and we went based off their website. Well that is 5 years old and the prices were completely off. I’m talking from $13 to $18.. so you can imagine how upset someone would be when they show up to pick up their food and it’s way more than expected. The guy who tended us was really nice but he stated he could not do anything about the price. I’ll post a picture of the updated menu. We ordered some Mac n cheese and paid $6 for each side. It was basically Krafts Mac n cheese. Our fries tasted like McDonald’s fries. Only one meal came with the garlic seasoning that they put on it. Another meal had some seasoning on the bottom half of the fries. The rest of the meals had none. The burger was still good but everything else kinda sucked. Not sure if we’ll go back after this experience and since it’s so pricey.

Stopped in here in the middle of us changing our campgrounds, and was in need for a beer, and we were more than happy with this spot.Beers were cold, and reasonably priced. We did not eat anything during this stop, but the food looked good.Love the outdoor seating option! We chose to sit inside, but it was amazing to see such a great outdoor friendly patio for this bar.Jewels and another gentlemen were very attentive and wanting to know our story from the moment we walked in. I can’t wait to come back our next trip to divide!

The server was super nice and upbeat. Every employee was kind and did their best to make us feel welcome. My first time trying the mushrooms, and they were amazing. I'm not usually a fan of sweet potatoes, but the sweet potato fries changed my mind.

The burgers were excellent! The onion rings are the best I've had! Service was friendly and the atmosphere great.

The stuffed mushrooms were the best we've ever had!! The burgers and fries were great too! The only thing I wasn't the biggest fan of was the bun but everything else was amazing! The staff is great and you can tell they love what they do. I'll definitely be back when we are in

Russ' Place inside is small, but has lots of outdoor seating. More cozy than crowded. We went for dinner and some awesome burgers and fries. There is a full bar. Staff were fast and friendly.

Great hole in the wall with the most awesome burgers ever! Great cocktails, interesting beers on tap, just a fun place to get a really good burger. I love the Hot Pink!Vegetarian options: You can get any of the burgers with Impossible Burger!
We drive an hr every other Wednesday to see Bobby, Jewels, Stevo and Jodie for Bingo. What an amazing crew and epic 3 hrs. If you haven’t been to a bingo night @ Russ’ Place you need to. Best night ever!

The food was amazing. So delicious! We had burgers, fries and onion rings and everything was delicious! It was suggested we try their sauce for the onion rings and 100% recommend!!! Service was the best I've had in Colorado :)

Onion rings brought to the table burnt and looking like nuclear waste. Flavor of burgers was decent, can't ask for any deviation from the menu or things are incorrect (ie sauce on the side) nothing to write home about fries over salted and cooked a tad too

Nothing good about any of this place, food is gross service is rude, they will serve you burnt beyond recognition food and say sorry you're SOL we aren't going to do anything about it (replace refund)

went with my family while on vacation and we were served burnt onion rings, burnt to the point the onion had dissolved, and told sorry nothing we are going to do about it. additionally when we ordered our orders weren't completely taken before the waiter ran off, and the food was wrong when it came out, instead of remaking a burger that had been made wrong the meat was just washed off and reheated. fries were stale and overcooked and the service was mediocre at best. if you're in the area avoid this restaurant!
