Our Story

Our Story

The Russo Family name established itself when Joseph Russo opened his first Italian Restaurant back in 1967 on the west side. He brought his Sicilian roots to Grand Rapids, MI. Joseph and Stella Russo both immigrants from Sicily found their passion for the restaurant business and continued to grow along side their six children who helped make the restaurants what they are today. Joseph Russo’s two sons, Peter and Joey have continued their father‘s legacy and family recipes.
