Russo’s restaurants plan to significantly expand its presence, both nationally and internationally.

In 2013, chef Anthony Russo opened three international restaurants and plans 10 new restaurants in Hawaii, Texas, and internationally throughout the Middle East slated to open in 2014.

Anthony Russo said: “The economy was tight, abroad offered a different opportunity, they have really embraced the concept.”

The unique concept behind Russo’s Restaurants is the dedication to being authentic in every way. “A lot of restaurants have lost their touch and have taken short cuts. It’s all pre-made stuff now, we stand behind traditions.” said Russo.

Russo’s Restaurants follows a simple method of cooking and the chefs train in the kitchen for six weeks.

Chef Russo attributes a lot of the success to the fresh dishes. He remains involved with the restaurants and food processes.

“I’ll get back there and start cooking with them,” Russo said.
