    Russo's is pretty good! The pizza was a good. The crust was thin, and cooked well with no "flop". It looks like the pie starts on a screen but gets removed partially through the cook. The sauce had a nice tang as well. We ordered a red velvet cake and it was just OK. Tasted like it was frozen, and wasn't particularly moist. All in all, it was a good experience and we will come back.

    Excellent service. I always love getting the amazing tomato soup. Gnocchi were delicious, kids love the giant slice of pizza. I tried the fettuccine Alfredo and they were good but not amazing (wish they had fresh Parmesan cheese). Chicken Parmesan had too much sauce / liquid.

    I had my sons 8th birthday party here. I called in advance and reserved a large party. They were so accommodating and sweet. Server was so patient and nice to the kids and all of us adults. Wonderful service, friendly staff, food came Out in a timely manner and delicious!

    We went out for dinner with my wife and I must share that our experience at Russo’s was fabulous, everything was delicious and well prepared, we chose, the Pistachio Chicken Pesto, the Greek Salad and the Shrimp Fra Diavolo. We are definitely coming back to taste some more.

    It’s been a long time since I’ve given such a bad review. Ultimately just save your money and go somewhere else. The food quality it’s terrible, the service is mediocre, and everything was overpriced. I debated between the Chicken Florentine and Chicken Manicotti but when I asked our server’s opinion he said neither. He recommended the tortellini Al vodka and it wasn’t great. It was very bland, the chicken (I added for an extra $4) was overcooked and lacking flavor, and the tortellini I think could’ve been cooked longer. I actually sent it back, I was not going to pay just shy of $24 for that. I figured just bring me plain Alfredo because how can you screw that up… well, they can. It was very soupy and again I don’t think the Alfredo noodles were cooked long enough. Ultimately we are leaving with to go boxes in hopes that I can fix the Alfredo at home but I won’t go back. Maybe I should’ve stuck with pizza 🤷🏼‍♀️

    The wait staff does not listen. Went for lunch with my daughter, and I had I one one SIMPLE request when ordering my salad, no olives in yhe salad. I was speaking English. The salad came out a few minutes later, and the waiter dropped it off and left, olives all over the place. Of course, he's gone and doesn't come back until the pizzia comes out. I hate eating like this, having to re wait for my correct food. Listen the first time and just get it right, there were maybe 4 people total in the place eating, NOT crowded or busy.

    Used to love it but things aren't the same. The pizza is super doughy, garlic knots tasteless, mozarella sticks cold. We threw away more than half of the order. It's too bad because the staff is usually very friendly and the pizza used to be amazing. Same experience now twice, so we probably won't be back again. Also, the sign in the front says bar seating is only for dine in patrons, so does that mean I can't sit there an order a beer while waiting for my order to be ready? - which would have been nice since the order was 10min late.

    We had such horrible service and the food was not exciting at all. Went on a Tuesday evening for my daughter’s birthday and had a party of 10. There was only one other couple there. It was slow, but our server Mauricio and some other young Latina girl were very lazy servers. The buffalo chicken pizza was good. The chicken florentine pasta was lacking flavor. The wings were actually the best thing we ate there. Our servers were talking to the cook/manager the entire time, and ignored us after taking us our food. Didn’t refill our drinks until we asked, which was when we were getting ready to leave. We still gave them a 20% tip, but left a note saying how disappointed we were with their service. They read the receipt and laughed it off. Never going again!

    Amazing food and excellent service! I had the Mediterranean pizza. The pizza dough was cooked to perfection and the ingredients were fresh and light. Our server, Jacob, was extremely attentive and anticipated our every need! We will definitely be coming back.

    Stopped in for the first time today with a buddy. First our server Ashley was great she had a great attitude, very friendly, service was great and the food was great. Definitely will be back again. And look forward to another great experience.

    Nice people, pizza was good. Went for a second time. We both ordered spaghetti and meatballs. The waitress was a true blonde. Brought my husband a warm beer, then brought a plastic glass. She didn't ask if we wanted meat or marinara sauce. Have it her way. The pita type bread was so hard I couldn't bite through it. The meatballs taste like dish soap. She barely came back to the table. When finished she finally ask, "it was good?" We said not really. Didn't ask what she could do for us or anything, but made sure she collected the money. We were shocked after having a pizza from them the week before that was good. $17.95 for spaghetti and meatballs and no salad. Spaghetti is one of the cheapest things you can make. You think you could throw a small salad in. So sad it didn't add up to the pizza.

    Not bad if you're looking for very basic pizza. Unfortunately, we had higher expectations. But I will give kudos for the basic quality of the ingredients. The pizzas are a fair price at about $16 (starting) for a 16 inch pizza plus add-ons for additional toppings. Seeing other reviews, I wanted to try a new pizza restaurant in the Woodlands and thought I would give Russo's a try. Since we were doing takeout we did not get the opportunity to eat in the restaurant but however it did look cozy but not very busy for a Friday night. We bought three pizzas to try to get a variety sampling which included: *A 16-in pepperoni pizza. *A 16-in Hawaiian with white/Alfredo sauce. *A 15-in plain cheese pizza. Each of the pizzas were a thin crust, light sauce and with real cheese. *However there was not a generous proportion of pepperoni, ham or pineapple. A little bit sparse and a little bit disappointing. The crust was good and probably the best part about the pizza, but noticed that each of the pizzas left a puddle of grease in the boxes. The staff was friendly and maintained a nice dining area. They were courteous and efficient. They were able to provide the pizzas in about 25 minutes from time of order. I give Russo's 4 stars only because it's not top shelf pizza. It's good pizza but it's not great pizza, unfortunately. With so many Pizza competitors within such close proximity, I believe Russo's needs to step up their game.

    Yummy! Great food and service. We got the buffalo chicken ranch New York style pizza. Way better than dominoes, doesn't even compare. And the house salad was amazing. And look at that gorgeous dessert. We loved it. Thank you Russos so much!

    My wife and I have come here several times and always had a good experience. Last night was very much an exception. We waited about 20 minutes just to get drinks, spent over 1 hour to have pizza and salads. The waitress completely ignored me, not making eye contact when I raised my hand asking for a drink refill. I ended up getting the refills myself! I received a caesar salad that didn’t have Caesar dressing, only parmesan cheese and oil. The waitress asked if she should take the salad and I told her the issue. She didn’t even offer to take it off my bill. I will not be returning.

    Went here today with my family. We were promptly seated. Drink orders taken. We were asked about appetizers but had not had time to look over menus. We did end up placing our orders and asked for garlic bread knots to be brought out as an appetizer. The pizza my 8 year old ordered had burnt crust. I ordered Alfredo with chicken and broccoli. (Was not told that they did not serve broccoli until after I asked about it after my food was brought with no broccoli. The alfredo sauce was watery thin. It dripped off each bite of chicken and noodles leaving a very bland plain taste as if just boiled chicken and noodles. The garlic knots had not been brought to the table by the time 4 out of 5 people finished their entrees so we canceled the order of garlic bread knots. I was not asked how everything was to express my dissatisfaction in person. On a positive note they have military discount. We will not be back due to quality of dishes we ordered. We did order two spaghetti dishes and the kids enjoyed those dishes. I just expected a richer thicker creamier Alfredo sauce and seasoned or flavorful chicken.

    Not food related, but wanted to give a shout out to Zack (Zach?) at Russo's College Park in the Woodlands. We were working on a roof next to Russo's yesterday and making quite a bit of noise. Zack asked if we could stop work as it was bothering his customers (as any good manager would do). We only had about 30 minutes of work left and instead of having us break down and come back another day, Zack proposed that once the customers in the restaurant departed, we’d have about 45 minutes until his next rush. This allowed us to complete our job and saved us quite a bit of set up, time, and money. Zack, we appreciate you working with us. Eat at Russo’s College Park! Sincerely, Brent Dudley – Corey Construction Commercial Services.

    Our server was super nice! Even with my a million questions. We are from NY we just moved here and will say we definitely found our new pizza spot. With that being said I must be honest this is closer to pizza you get in italy not so much NYC. I have been to italy and it was literally almost identical to pizza I had in Florence. Crust and flavor wise. Which is not a negative at all! I loved it and so did my SO. The prices were a little high but you get what you pay for. Really tasty pizza. We are just use to our $1 slices in NYC 🤣. Over all would recommend and 100% be back.

    I ordered earlier this week and the food was great. There was an issue with the charge to my card not matching the bill. The staff was very friendly when I went in to discuss the problem. The owner contacted me to apologize and resolve the issue. They handled everything very professionally and kindly. I am very satisfied with how things were handled and excited for the next time I order because their pizza is the closest thing in the area to what we used to get when we lived in NY. Wonderfully delicious every time.

    Wonderful experience! Our waitress was Bailey and she was amazing. She made sure we had everything we needed and helped pick the best items on the menu. The pizza was downright delicious NY Style and made perfectly. We will definitely be back.

    Excellent service! The cauliflower crust pizza was AMAZING!!!! I have a gluten allergy and I was able to have the delicious tomato basil soup and cauliflower pizza! This is my new favorite place! The kids had a blast with the giant pizza slice!!! The nicest people work there and are very nice and attentive. Absolutely delicious food!

    Great Pizza-lazy prep work. First time trying the pizza and it was actually really good. The Big slice lives up to its name and then some. The only complaint I had was nobody took the time to deseed the hot peppers. It won't stop me from coming back and trying additional menu items and some of their specialty pizzas. The pizza is excellent!
