    Bourbons has good food, good cocktails, and great service. Only drawbacks are it’s typically very busy and loud from the crowd

    Experienced Bourbons for the first time this evening for a birthday dinner with our family. The service was amazing as was the food. I highly recommend the Baby Back Ribs, Buttermilk Fried Chicken, and Pizza (and of course the Smoked Old Fashioned)! You'll definitely want to make a reservation as the place fills up during the dinner rush. We will be back!

    Gracious and intelligent hosts. Friendly and effective wait staff. Good food. A little on the loud side, especially in the front room. Bartending could use a bit of an upgrade. But overall a great restaurant.

    We arrived at a few minutes before our reservation and waited a few minutes after our reservation to be seated, it was very busy and load. Water was brought as we sat down. Our server was promptly asking for our drinks which arrived very quickly. Our app were placed and then arrived immediately within a few minutes, after a few more minutes our main course order was taken and arrived on top of our appetizer with in minutes, it seemed more like a food factory than a restaurant style dining, everything prepared to be plated and served for fast turn over. I believe we were there about 45 minutes. total. Seemed very rushed and very load atmosphere. Hey but if you like a quick bit it is the place.

    Bourbons is a good place to have a fine meal. Try the fig, pear, and blue cheese pizza. It is excellent. Service is attentive without being overbearing. The only downside is that it’s very loud. That said, have a great dining experience!
