Russ & Daughters Menu

Russ & Daughters stands as a revered New York institution, blending rich Jewish culinary heritage with impeccable quality. Their menu shines brightest with the Classic Bagel & Lox Sandwich—a harmonious balance of perfectly toasted bagels, silky smoked salmon, and the lightest, creamiest scallion cream cheese that feels indulgent yet delicate. Equally impressive are their smoked whitefish and pastrami salmon, each delivering fresh, deeply flavorful bites that reflect careful craft and tradition.

The takeout-only setup encourages a nostalgic, no-frills approach, reminiscent of an old-world deli counter, where speed meets genuine care in every order. Signature sides like potato latkes and the Black & White Cookie enrich the experience, while staples such as matzo ball soup and dried fruit offer comforting variety. Russ & Daughters isn’t just a meal—it’s a vivid taste of authentic New York and Jewish culinary history, served with passion and precision that keeps both locals and visitors coming back for more.
