Beautiful place!

I had the best old-fashioned cocktail. It is strong but loves it. I had spicy fried oysters. I enjoyed it a lot. I love spicy. Then I had Bourbon Chop. It was so delicious. I really enjoyed the green beans and the mashed potato, but I love the pork chop more.

I would like to come back for more bourbon and a few delicious dishes.

Had a reservation on a Friday night. Service and food was excellent. It’s a very romantic atmosphere. Although the place is not overly fancy, it is extremely nice and charming. Loved the lights in the dining room, the brick and the wood. The food was worthy of a fine restaurant, presentation and taste were perfect. I would highly recommend it ! Prices were very fair. We found plenty of parking in the street.

Everything about bourbon’s is first class. We sat at the bar while our table was getting prepared for us. Had such a hard time choosing from the list of bourbon. Be sure to try the Buzzard’s Roost as it is the creation of the house. After being seated in a cozy table the 6 of us (5 adults and 1 preteen) our server described the specials for the evening and we ordered appetizers. The goat cheese, fried oysters and roasted bone marrow were perfect starters followed by shrimp and grits, tomahawk pork chop, hamburger and Bangers and mash. Every dish was perfect and our server made sure that our meal was perfectly timed. We lingered a bit over dessert and coffee drinks. You can not go wrong with this experience. Thank you for a special evening.

We really enjoyed our meals and drinks at Bourbon Bistro. Our waitress was outstanding and offered good recommendations. Great location in a more lively part of town. Will come back.

Get the filet and shrimp and grits. The steak melted in my mouth and I've NEVER EVER EVER IN MY ENTIRE LIFE had shrimp and grits as good as the chef here does. He's amazing. I wish i could come him.

These pictures are not the two entrees referred to above but instead are taken at a private dinner we attended but even on a regular night we have great food and amazing time.

My husband and I had dinner on New Years Eve with another couple. We were seated in the covered patio. It was great because the restaurant was packed. We had the entire patio with a fireplace to ourselves. So thank you to the people who didn't want to sit out there. The service, food, and cocktails were great.

Enjoyed dinner, bourbon tasting and cigars as part of the Black Bourbon Run.
Great hospitality from owner Jason Brauner (Buzzards Roost).
Amazing experience!

Outstanding! Service was excellent, and the food was as well! I had the shrimp and grits and it is one or perhaps the best I've had. My party had the pork chop and they were as pleased as me. Has the bread pudding for desert and could not believe how good bread pudding could be! It was phenomenal!

They excel in all areas of service, food, drinks, and atmosphere! Easily 5 stars!

This may be the best meal I’ve ever had from start to finish! The ambiance is fantastic, the selection of bourbon is plenty and the staff/ownership are top notch. This place is a little on the more expensive side but it was worth every penny! I can’t wait to frequent Bourbons when I’m down in the Louisville area.

Love this place! Went here on a recommendation and was glad I did. Good bourbon selection! The food was outstanding. I had the spicy fried oysters to start. I love oysters, but usually not a fan if they are fried. However, the description intrigued me. They weee fantastic! They have a smaller dinner menu and I went with the pork chop. Sooo good! I substituted the parmigiana grits for the potatoes. That was a great choice In my opinion. As with most places the staff and atmosphere plays a big part in the experience. They did not disappoint. Very friendly and accommodating people all around. Will be back!

Surprised my husband with a Valentine's reservation at this bourbon mecca. It was a wonderful experience from the extensive bourbon list, to the delicious garlicky goat cheese appetizer that was followed by a perfectly seasoned ribeye accompanied by braised broccoli and finished off with two delightful desserts--all served by an attentive, knowledgeable server. Hubby was happy to be able to try some new bourbons and was delighted that our server was well versed enough to make recommendations. I loved the attention to detail and the dishes that were expertly prepared. It was a wonderful evening all around!

We went there to celebrate our anniversary and loved everything we ordered, especially the sea bass entrée which is a chef special.
We love this place and will definitely go back.

Overall great experience. Nice selection of bourbon and good eats. The reason I gave 4 stars for the food is due to the bread pudding dessert. While flavorful with amazing cherries on top, the amount of sauce/glaze on the plate was complete overkill.

Dinner out during the week. Long shotgun type dining room. It would have been a cozy table except we were next to a group of 10 who were enjoying themselves immensely. Good for them! Just made it a bit loud. The cocktails were excellent and bourbon on the rocks was a generous pour. The menu is limited but enough variety in appetizers, salads, entrees and sides. Our order was prepared and presented beautifuly. A nice date night out!

WONDERFUL! We were a group of 10. Table ready upon our arrival. Were greeted and felt very welcome.
Our group tried several appetizers and had drinks during happy hour for $2-3 dollars off.
Our sever was so nice. We never wanted for any thing. She was very attentive and helpful.
Average entrees $20-35 each and were full meals did not need to order any sides. No one ordered dessert.
The restaurant is very comfortable with white table clothes and beautifully lighted just right. You can read the menu without your phone light!
We will return!!!

We shared another spectacular meal at Bourbons Bistro this evening. Our party of six was well taken care of by Randy. She was just a pleasure to talk with and was more than attentive. Chef McFarland and Sous Chefs Sewell and Varju are truly artists with their menu and preparation. Hands down, the best Shrimp and Grits in town. The Bread Pudding for dessert was perfectly portioned for one or more. All of this, and I haven't talked about the bar. Their Paper Plane is exquisite, and the bourbon selection is fairly priced. Looking forward to our next visit.

Had a great meal celebrating my daughter's engagement. Bourbon Bistro made it a very special occasion. Food was fantastic, service was prompt, warm and attentative. They tailored the meal. Thanks for a memorable occasion celebrating a lifetime event.

The chicken wings are amazing! They are covered in a sauce with bits of bacon. You'll want to lick your fingers after you're done. The fried oysters over grits were really good. The grits have a good mild flavor. The pork chop was delicious! Lean and well cooked. I just wish it came with a little more sauce. The green beans and mashed potatoes that come with the pork chop were on point. The cocktails were great. The bacon old fashion didn't have much bacon flavor. The bourbon Lily was great. Not too sweet with a nice punch.

This was an excellent place for eating, bourbons, and ambience. We had the mussels and fried oysters with grits. The grits were outstanding! The rest of our meal was wonderful as well.

Our server was Finley and she rocked! She was helpful, friendly, and attentive. She offered excellent recommendations for our bourbon flights and meal choices. She really helped to of an already weekend experience. 100% would come here again and recommend to others.
