    This was my first time at Bourbons and I can honestly say it's lived up too its reputation. Toni, the bar manager, was spot on in hey mixology skills. Best in the area. The hosting staff was warm and accommodating and communicated well. The waiter was top notch and the food was served quickly, warm, and presented well. The taste was fabulous, I had fried chicken and my date had the shrimp. I will go back again and again.

    We made a reservation for 6:00 on a saturday to celebrate a birthday. We arrived 15 minutes early and they sat us promptly. Our waiter made several recommendations that we were extremely happy with. He was polite, prompt and just the right amount of humorous! The food was delicious and the service wonderful!

    Great waitstaff and food. The noise level goes up as the evening progresses, so get there early if you want to avoid the loudness. We will be back!
