    The food was delicious! Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection, and the service was great! Its also a plus that the place is beautiful as well

    7th street pizza
    Itiel W.

    Went to Bison & Bourbon for a nice night out, and it was a great time. The food was fantastic, the vibes were great, and we genuinely left full and happy. We started with the 7th Street Pizza, which came out hot, crispy, and full of flavor--definitely a solid appetizer to kick things off. Then came the chicken tenders, which completely surprised us. They weren't your typical tenders--these were wrapped in a crispy onion and beer batter that added a whole new level of flavor and texture. Super crunchy, super juicy--just really well done and great value for money! The highlight was the tomahawk steak. 22oz I think, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor. All in all, we were really impressed. Great food, generous portions, and a place we'll definitely be coming back to. And we have to shout out the service--it was spot-on the entire night. Our server, Juan, was attentive, and knew the menu well. Everything came out at a good pace, and we never felt rushed or overlooked. It really made the whole experience that much better!

    Came here dinner after work with coworkers . I ordered the passion fruit mojito and asked to not have simple syrup otherwise it will be too sweet . I enjoyed it. We had a few appetizers, the tacos , crispy cauliflower , and some beef dish I forgot the name off but it was so soft and yummy. Amongst the four of us we each ordered a steak . Meal was great , staff friendly ! Will be back !

    Tuna tartare that didn't taste great and looked awful

    The only thing this place has going for it is its glatt kosher status, which falls way short of the high expectations I had when the very dim lighting covers up the overcooked dried out dry aged prime rib that I ordered medium rare. and the tuna tartare arrived, plated like some vomit a toddler stuck their fingers through to draw with. the service was average, overpowered by the excessively loud music that prevented conversatoon or helped the awkward date where nothing is said. I wouldn't give it another chance, but I'm ready to support the next kosher steakhouse or see if they'd hire a chef that is willing to help pick up their slack for the prices they charge.

    Excellent food and service ! Love the ambiance and the decor ! My burger was made to perfection.

    Great service, food and value. Appetizers are very solid, we had the wings, pastrami and the fried cauliflower. Felt a bit "one note" in terms of flavor, but was an excellent start. The mains here are obviously the steaks. Delmonico is $10 price difference for bacon and fried onions. I asked for mine medium, but it came more rare/med rare so I asked them to send it back, and then it was perfect. We had managers come to our table asking if everything was OK, which was the first time I've ever seen that in a while! Dessert was good too.

    Place design is beautiful and unique!!

    Best restaurant by far from all nyc restaurants. It's kosher and amazing,! Every dish look like Michelin dish. Best service I ever got in nyc! And there cocktails was booming! The tequila sunrise is highly recommended!! I felt like I'm celebrity the moment I step in!

    Bourbon flat bread pulled beef
    Yigal S.

    Came into Bison and Bourbon a Sunday evening during COVID time. For me and my wife's 3rd anniversary Overall vibe was on point. Elegant music, and safe social distancing (outdoors)- yet still 'popping' with people enjoying their meal. Our waiter Lavon was very professional and offered stellar recommendations. We ordered A passion fruit mojito - delicious as expected :) bourbon pulled beef flatbread - delicious pulled beef on a crispy flatbread. Cordon bleu- pastrami wrapped with fried chicken. This was special. Delicious blend of flavors and sauces. Toasted chicken waffles - never tried this combo before. Sweet and yummy. And we split a surprise steak - cooked medium and absolutely perfect. For dessert we had the lava cake.

    See all

    If you are in the neighborhood I would say, these smash burger are a good option for you…read more Ambiance: Came here in the afternoon, and the vibe was relaxed with nice music in the background and a lot of seatings. Food: Smash burger are great, they are not the best but I would rank it as top 5 in the city. I was pretty surprised how they charge for cheese (the place is mostly Kosher, and the Cheese of I remember is vegan) which contradict the concept of smash burgers. The fries were overly cooked if not almost burned, so I couldnt eat half of the basket. Service: ordering regular fries and getting trufle fries just to charge me extra is not a nice move. But having those popcorn and water cup made up for it little bit. If I knew I would be charged that much (burger + fries) I would have chosen from the lunch special menu

    Wanted to like this place more but it missed the mark. This is really a 3.5 star review…read more I went on a weekday around 12:30 and it was completely empty. I was told to take a menu from the counter and that I could have a seat. Tried to order a mint lemonade but they didn't have any mint. OK so I ordered a strawberry basil iced tea, which was refreshing, but didn't really have much flavor in my opinion. When I looked at the menu, they had a lot of different burger options but I settled for a Smashburger that was shown on a summer menu. However, I then watched the waiter offer two groups who came after me a lunch special menu that was not offered or mentioned to me. Had I known there were lunch specials, I would've checked them out to see if I wanted to order. So I was a little upset that these were offered to everyone except me. In terms of the actual burger, I found the patties to be way too thin, even for a smash burger. To me it left the burger, feeling kind of skimp and not fulfilling at all. I also ordered fries which were honestly the star of the show. Lastly, I didn't feel like the service was up to par. There was a large table in front of a door and the waiter kept yelling to people to not sit at the table because he needed to access the door. My question is, why place a table in a spot that you know you need to be able to go in and out of? And then on top of that when he gave me the bill, it said one price, however, after I paid and a receipt was brought to me to sign it, had a different price. What I think happened is he did not add the drink the first time and I didn't notice, but I feel like when this happened you should just say to the customer that you forgot to add something and here's a new receipt. There was also an automatic 15% gratuity, which I wasn't fond of. I spent $40 for a lunch that I barely liked. Way too overpriced and not worth the visit imo.

Chef Erick, formerly of Boru Boru and other high Michelin star rated spots, is the executive chef here now and doing what he does best to make this gastropub a huge success. Dishes you'll be familiar with but with a slight twist in a good way is the name of the game here. The vibe is upbeat, staff is friendly and the food is on point. This night we had the caramelized medjool dates with chunks of crispy beef bacon, pickled red onions with a drizzle of aioli that but thru the sweet and have it a nice balance. Their signature burger is ultra juicy bf flavorful, even if you must get it well done ;), the Duck pastrami was really tender and had all the flavors of what a traditional pastrami would have. Their charcuterie board was phenomenal and chef said he'd be updating it from time to time with new additions as well. And I'm physical obsessed with their pickled veggies jar!! Loved their olive oil cake served with an in season persimmon and kumquat coulis, almost like a short cake and the sweet and tart of the fruit coulis complimented really well. So get your GNO, BNO, birthday, date night, family celebration going here! It's a fun night out with great food, beautiful ambiance and upgrade energy! Oh and they will hold your table 20 min past your reservation time, DO NOT BE LATER THAN THAT because there is a ton of walk ins and they will give your table up to one of the many hungry patrons waiting. Which I do very much appreciate that they stick to that rule.
