Very disappointed with Russ & Daughters Cafe. They are overpriced and cater to the moneyed. Had I known that it was going to be like this I would have opposed their full liquor license. You know it's in an over saturated area at a location that wasn't licensed. Residents gave them the benefit of the doubt out of respect. They said it was going to be a regular place for locals. What a shame.Some interesting yelp reviews that call them out.
