Solid diner with decently friendly staff. A bit of waiting to place order which got frustrating. Prices are great. Decor is as expected with a small diner. Food was alright…French toast was bizarre and not good. I did enjoy the biscuit and gravy, though.

Stopped by here for lunch one day. Service was quick and friendly. Food was just average, somewhat diner style. Prices were VERY cheap, which was refreshing. If you’re looking for something quick and basic, this is the place to go.

Food was excellent, a bit of a wait, but it was “in season” so lots of people in town enjoying these fantastic beaches……

Only been here once, but had a really good breakfast at the counter – thus the good review. The food was really very good for the price, and there was plenty of it. My eggs were perfect, and the ladies serving us seemed happy and pleased to help. My coffee was refilled, and I think being at the counter helped me get at least 4 cups down!

We tried for months to get in here for breakfast, line was always wrapped around the building during the busy season so we knew it had to be good! We went this past weekend once things slowed down and breakfast was AMAZING. This is our new favorite breakfast spot. The prices are great and the food has that ‘home cooked’ taste. Portions are pretty large but they offer half sizes on many dishes. All staff are very friendly and have great suggestions. This is a “must try” for anyone visiting the Southport/Oak Island area.

Excellent service. The food was great. There is always a wait to get into Russell’s but that shows how popular it is. I ordered the Belgian Waffle with Strawberry and Whipped Cream and it came out perfect. Even in the off season we had to wait about 20 minutes to get a table for 2.

Loved my breakfast of fried eggs, grits, white milk gravy, and toast. Not too crazy about the bacon. And I am definitely a bacon lover but this just didn’t taste fresh. Friendly friendly staff. Would definitely go back there again!

I’m not sure why people are giving this place any sort of negative review. Anyone that gives this place a negative review is clearly to picky to eat at a local diner. Everything about my experience was amazing.

The service was great, especially given that they were filled to capacity. All of us enjoyed our meals. My omelet, shared with my husband, was very good, and the potatoes crispy and tasty. Coffee hot and not bitter, like at so many restaurants.
