Located in the scenic Divide, Colorado, Russ's Place is a hidden gem for hamburger enthusiasts. Patrons rave about the homemade buns that perfectly cradle gourmet burgers, like the bacon avocado burger praised by Christina Grasmick as the best she's ever had. The restaurant excels not only in flavor but also in service; customers frequently highlight the attentive staff, especially the charismatic Stevo and the memorable Jewels, who enhance the dining experience with their humor and attentiveness.

Alice Foster, a self-proclaimed "reggaehippy," describes her burger as "fking amazing," emphasizing the juicy patty and the delightful garlic-flavored fries. This focus on quality and the subtle seasoning creates a burger experience that resonates deeply with each visitor. Jessica Francis adds to this charm by noting the picturesque mountain views and the unique, laughter-inducing restroom decor, which together create an inviting atmosphere for locals and tourists alike.

In summary, if you're seeking a friendly, delicious dining experience that pairs mouth-watering burgers with a vibrant environment, Russ's Place should be at the top of your list. A cozy destination where every meal is not just food, but a joyful experience.

Awesome place with great food. Our waitress Jewels was great. She got us everything we needed and checked on us multiple times. Overall 10/10 experience, the atmosphere is great and everyone there was very friendly and helpful. Will be going back later for drinks!

“Fking amazing”. My exact words when asked how my burger was. Hands down one of the tastiest burger and fries combo I’ve ever had. Burger was perfectly cooked, juicy and the seasoning charred into it was absolutely delicious. Little hint of garlic flavored FFs that were a bit bigger than shoestrings and freshly fried. I had only mayo and grilled onions. No salad bar stuff to get in the way of flavors. Did I mention the amazing bun? Just enough to hold onto without overpowering the burger. Perfectly spot on. Go now!!

The entire experience was amazing. Seeing the mountains while being able to enjoy a fresh meal was beautiful. My waiter Steve-O made the moment a whole vibe. He was very attentive, funny & a real cowboy! They are pet-friendly which was something I wasn’t familiar with, but loved. Not mention their bathroom was to die for. Walking into that threshold brought so much laughter. The theme they have chosen speaks to us all. I personally posted it to my social media. This was a 10/10 for sure. I hate that I will miss 420 night, I’m almost positive it will be a day to never forget. Thank you, Russ for this moment.

We are from out of town and asked around for a place to eat. This was a fantastic experience. Jewel was probably the most memorable waitress I have had in years. Her personality is one of a kind and fit our crew well. Food was amazing! Highly recommended. Men’s bathroom is a must see as well.

Fantastic place. Bartender to owner are the friendliest people you will meet. The cook has outstanding burgers and mushrooms. Could not ask for a better place to eat and have a cold one!!! Highly recommended!! From a Texan! If up this way again will definitely stop.

If you’re anywhere near Divide, CO, do yourself a favor and stop at Russ’s! Hands down the BEST burgers in the mountains—juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The fried onions and fried mushrooms? Absolute heaven. Crispy, golden, and packed with flavor. It’s one of those hidden gems that locals love and visitors never forget. Friendly service, cozy mountain vibe, and food that hits the spot every time.
