Russo's New York Pizzeria Italian Kitchen

The giant slice pizza, the meatballs, and the spinach and artichoke dip are some of the best I've ever had! Don't sleep on this strip mall location! Absolutely wonderful food!

Upon arrival the cashier told us they didn't know we were coming and didn't have the staff to cook and serve us. She sent us away. When we called back later to take to a manager the cashier answered and hung up on us. We've sent messages on social media with no response. Don't waste your time with this place. Unfortunately we read other reviews too late. Would not recommend.

No complaints on the food but such terrible service. Even though our server was actually nice, she was very distracted and did not do good at all. Took forever to take our drinks and our order. We got the salad and the pasta, but never got our pizza because she clearly forgot about it. She even came to our table to ask if we wanted some dessert. We reminded her about the pizza, and she even asked what kinda pizza we had ordered. On top of that, they did not even have the intention to prepare it so we decided to leave. We were never approached by management or anything. Terrible experience.

Worst experience we ever had in Clearwater! We visited Russo's after a shoping tour at around 2pm. Besides us only two guests were in the restaurant. We were not greeted but recognized and given the menue. After that we got ignored for around 20 minutes. So we decided to leave and definitely never come back.

Made reservation for NYE. Showed up and the waitress comes to the table and says they are only service pizza that day. A sign on the door or a posting to the scheduled reservations would have been nice.
