Bourbons is amazing! Every dish was a hit. The Corn Chowder, Hurricane Shrimp, French Dip, and Braised Short Ribs were flavorful and expertly prepared. I also got a surprise birthday cake (can’t recall the name, but it was delicious!). Great food, cozy vibe, and attentive service.
This was a great place on a Friday night dinner outing. The food was top notch and ribs were perfect. I had a chance to enjoy their bread pudding and it was a perfect ending to an amazing meal. Service was great even when the place was packed! Best to make a reservation because this place is popular!
Dinner here was fabulous!! In our party of 4 we had the steak dinner.. baby back ribs.. grilled Salmon (get it blackened) and a burger.. all tasted amazing! We also shared the bread pudding and it was the best I’ve ever tasted! Tyler was our amazing waiter! He is so nice and just fun! We had the best time!
We got the smokehouse pizza. Not bad and something different! We also got the steak burnt ends ! I normally love these ends! The barbecue sauce was overpowering the meat. Sauce was overly sweet. Some people might like them like that. But somewhere it just drowned out the flavor of everything. Other than that, drinks were good and the waiter …
Had a great experience here! The salmon salad was absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The steak was also done just right, juicy and seasoned well. What really made the night even better was the outstanding service from Paul. Friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Highly recommend if you’re looking for delicious food and …
We come here often being Brighton residence, but had a really great experience recently during Christmas. I brought my whole team here for a work event. They were ready for us when we arrived, had a beautiful table, set up, had really fast service and amazing food. Everyone in the party commented on the food. We also really enjoyed their …
We came here for lunch on a Saturday at 1pm. We had a reservation and it was a good thing. Strongly suggest making one. We had fries for an appetizer. They were good. I had the Cajun Ratatouille. It was quite good. Served very hot. The vegetables were very well prepared, with good texture. The spice level was great for …
We always enjoy time spent at Bourbons. The food and atmospheres are always great. This time our waitress, Chelsea S., went above and beyond. She was so knowledgeable of the menu and so helpful with my husband’s drink choice. I highly recommend stopping in! 10/10
Great place for drinks, great music and atmosphere. Patio dining in the summer. Best thing around is the chocolate decadence dessert. I love rich chocolate desserts and this is my favorite dessert in Brighton so far! It's like eating a piece of cake made of soft dark chocolate fudge.🤤
I’ve been here four times now, and each visit has been a great experience. The customer service is consistently top-tier, and the food has been delicious every time except for one visit that didn’t quite hit the mark. Overall, they’ve been very consistent. Today we stopped in for a quick brunch. While the full brunch menu is usually offered on …
