Great hidden gem for brunch! Huge portions and friendly service. They get really busy so expect a wait at peak times.

The food was amazing. I was full for a very long time. Great size portions and flavors. Only reason it's not 5 star is because my Rum Punch I could not taste any trace of liquor not did I feel anything. Maybe I have a high tolerance but it was watered down, not much taste to it. Fast service.

Ok, this food is not fancy, it's just good. They cook with love the waiters remember you. Everything is made with love (except for that damn chicory coffee). I have NEVER given a casual restaurant 5 stars because I was a chef and I can get snobby about food sometimes. I would give this place 6 stars if I could!!! Keep up the good work.

If you're having a rough morning after a fun night out Russell's is the place to go. The staff is excellent the food served there is about as authentic New Orleans as it gets. Not to mention the bloody Mary's will ease you right into your next day of enjoying the city

I have been eating at Russell's Marina Grill since the early 1980's and, to be fair, this is my first review that was not four or five stars. My meal, a shrimp poorboy, was poor, and the server was terrible. The bread was stale and tasteless, the shrimp was the worst, like some cheap frozen shrimp from Costco, and the tomatoes looked like they had been cut with a machete, mushed and 1/2" thick on one side & 1/16" thick on the other side. Our server was poorly spoken, course in his speak, and inattentive. His response to 'Thank-you' was normally something to the effect of, "No worries dude." I asked for some ketchup for my poorboy & fries and he brought me one small tub of ketchup that was only good enough for about five French fries.

I ordered the Pavlov’s breakfast ( might be spelling it wrong ) and I have to say, it was the best breakfast I’ve had in a long time. The pork chops were tender, fruit was fresh, eggs were fluffy, muffin toasted to perfection and the hash browns had a crispy outside and a soft inside. Needless to say I’d recommend Russell’s marina to everyone looking to have an amazing breakfast.

I've been eating at this place for nearly 10 years and never had a bad experience. It's so good. As if the food being delicious wasn't enough, check out the architecture of this waffle. It has a syrup boat designed into the middle, which also has a fleur de lis. 👌(My wife had BBQ shrimp and grits mmmm)

There are parking spaces outside and plenty of seating. The host and waitress were very courteous and attentive, and the restroom was clean. We had the alligator sausage for an appetizer and the sausage was okay but the remoulade it came with was excellent. My main was the BBQ Shrimp Benny (pictured). The dish had more shrimp than you get most places and the biscuits were perfect. The grits lacked flavor even with the sauce, but they were almost not necessary since the rest of the entree was filling. For dessert, we got the peanut butter chocolate pie and the bread pudding. The pie was thick and really satisfying. I've had better bread pudding but it's still worth a try.

First time eating here & it definitely won't be the last!!! My coworkers & I all ordered the Saturday special....OMG!! The chicken was freshly made to order. The managers & staff were all very polite & accommodating. The weather changed over night. The restaurant was freezing cold but the manager turned the air down to make guests more comfortable. Eventhough we ordered the chicken I will be going back soon to try some of that delicious looking breakfast that others were eating!!

Saints #33, alligator sausage in a grilled biscuit and tomatoes topped with gravy and a poached egg!! Amazing! Always my go to, my favorite but that is even a hard decision bc everything is fantastic that is offered on the menu. My husband is born and raised in New Orleans until the past few years, visiting here every year continues his child hood memories of great times and amazing, fresh food. Everything you taste is very fresh and made with perfection. Even offer a The Day After Breakfast that includes their famous, must have bloodymarry. The atmosphere is very laid back and local feeling with friendly faces. Locally owned for many years and close to the lake.

If you want to eat the most amazing breakfast items you have eaten, this is the place to go. Its always busy so be prepare to wait a little bit. Its not too long a wait and the food is well worth the wait. The menu is too long to list here, but you can find everything listed on their website. This is the place to go for breakfast/brunch if you are in the New Orleans area. I guarantee the food will blow you away. AMAZING!!! Really good Bloody Mary too. Everything is very affordable too. I will be there next weekend and I am definitely going there for breakfast again.

Besides ALWAYS having the "BIG AL'S" Bloody Marys with breakfast, Russell's Marina has some of the best prepared breakfast entrees in New Orleans. From "Benedict-like" Eggs Pontchartrain to sweet potato pancakes smothered with your choose of fruits and/or nuts, the menu can satisfy your breakfast or lunch appetite. Southern-style hospitality is on the forefront along with great service & reasonable prices. You'll love Russell's Marina Grill.

🗣 the best breakfast place I’ve eaten at in New Orleans!! We were in New Orleans for four days this last visit and we are here 3 days straight. Everything was good and the homemade jam was a winner. The first day we were a little disappointed with the wait but it was worth the wait. I will visit here every time I go to New Orleans from here out. Mr. Al, was awesome and very welcoming and there were a few others that had great customer service with the exception of one or two. I would definitely recommend
