Russo Ristorante-Mercato is now open in Tanger Outlets, Grand Rapids!
Utilizing foods sourced directly from Italy with made-from-scratch homemade recipes, Russo welcomes visitors into a true Italian journey. Carefully sourced non-GMO and artisan produced foods stocked by Russo Italian Grocer provide the taste and culture of Sicily and the Mediterranean.
An authentic Italian experience in and out of the home
Russo is an Italian fine dining culinary experience open for lunch and dinner seven days a week.
Situated inside a fine Italian Grocery filled with fresh and authentic homemade foods, Russo provides visitors a way to take that culinary experience home.
“We hear it all the time…Why does the pasta and bread here in the US make me feel so bloated compared to what I had in Italy…we tell them it’s all about the quality of ingredients,” says John Russo, co-founder of Russo with sons Michael, Dominic and Greg.
A culinary dynasty provides connection to Italy
The store, founded in 1902 by Francesco & Girolama Russo and their son Giovanni Battista Russo, will be operated by the culinary dynasty’s three youngest generations.
Open just in time for the holidays, stop in at Russo Ristorante-Mercato, West Michigan’s direct connection to Italy.
Russo is located at Suite 510 of Tanger Outlets, Grand Rapids.
