Fantastic food, fantastic service. Couldn't be happier with the experience. The Jambalaya and pecan pie were fantastic. Kristin, our server, did a great job. 5/5 read more

Great place our server Tim was fantastic. Great food Mac and cheese and the pear pizza was fantastic loved the atmosphere.

We placed a takeout order while hanging out at a nearby Brewery. Our food was ready within 25-30min, which we thought was very reasonable. I ordered the Shrimp & Crawfish Etouffee and I enjoyed it. Everything was cooked perfectly and it had great flavor. I did think the portion size was pretty small considering the price point but this may just be because it was takeout. Overall, great menu with lots of options that worked well for us looking for a takeout option. I definitely want to try their pizzas next time! read more

Bourbons - Shrimp & Crawfish Etouffee - Southern Near Me - Brighton, Michigan

Bourbons was a tremendous experience. From being able to be seated within 2 minutes with no reservation on a super busy Sunday brunch, to the excellent service throughout our whole meal and finally the delicious food. The short rib benedict was not one of the "most popular" dishes recommended to us by the waiter, but it was probably the best i've ever had. Cant wait to try out the rest of the menu. read more

Came with a large group of friends for lunch and they were great at accommodating us. I ordered the fried chicken salad and was very pleasantly surprised by the portion and taste. I would come back just for the salad! I also got a Spanish coffee, but unfortunately wasn't super impressed. As the name suggest, you should probably order a bourbon drink! The ambience and design of the restaurant is very nice! This would make a great date spot! read more

Dalton is our waiter. He's pleasant, attentive and knowledgeable too. Started off with the French fried pickle, Caprese, blackened grouper, Nashville hot chicken, mushroom pizza, side of cornbread and side if buttermilk biscuits. We ordered a lot, that's what happens when I am famished. We are so hungry. Dalton brought us some app plates and let us know our apps were on their way out shortly. The French fried pickles are yummy, crunchy and just the right amount of tartness from the fry sized pickle. The dipping sauce is good with it too. The mushroom pizza is nicely chewy, the dough and the truffle oil is strong enough we smelled it as it was placed on our table too. The mushrooms are fresh as is the dough. We didn't get our side of biscuit or the cornbread, but it as fine since I was stuffed before my Caprese was out. The Nashville hot chicken was nice and flavorful, crunchy and a huge breast. I couldn't get my mouth over the whole sandwich, it was that big. The chicken was moist, not too messy of a sauce. The grouper was tasty and nicely seasoned too. It's nicely cooked and the tomato sauce has a nice kick too. The grouper had a nice meaty and fatty ratio. It was perfectly cooked. The cornbread was good as well. The Caprese was quite good. One more mozzarella slice would have been nice with the one lone tomato. Food was good, service was good, minus forgetting the biscuit and the cornbread. read more

We ate at Bourbons during the Destination Stars Hollow event. Thank goodness we had reservations because they were slammed. Even being busy, everyone was pleasant and the food/drinks came out timely. Excellent salads and sangrias today. Would definitely eat here again. read more

As restaurants have slowly opened up in the brave new world we are living in, I've found myself eager to try new places, especially as I search for more distances and outdoor dining. After a morning spent hiking, my significant other and I were ready to grab a bite. We searched for brunch in nearby Brighton, and Bourbons was one of the top-rated restaurants that we found. A nearby city lot provided free parking, and within minutes we had arrived and were seated at a table on their sidewalk along Main St. With brunch offerings running the gamut, we played it relatively tame and went for some old favorites: Eggs Benedict and Huevos Rancheros. The beau added a side of candied bacon bourbon Bloody Mary to keep things interesting. Between the pleasant outdoor setting, the perfectly prepared and seasoned food, and the excellent service, we thoroughly enjoyed our midday meal. If you need a place to recharge and enjoy a weekend meal while near Brighton, Bourbons is definitely top shelf! read more

Came here for lunch and had a fantastic experience! Great atmosphere and food. Our server Rachel was kind, friendly, and attentive. 10/10 will be back again! read more

Yummy! Very nice atmosphere, you could dress up or down, everyone was really friendly. They have a good menu selection, and the cocktails were really good! Some traditional and some with a twist. I had the blackened grouper sandwich (for lunch), I really enjoyed it, and I liked that they toasted/grilled the bread which was much nicer than just regular bread. They won't sub a side salad for the fried or chips that come with the sandwiches. :( So I added a side salad, they serve with citrus vinaigrette (I think it was the house dressing), it was excellent so worth the add on. Overall, a tasty meal. Definitely recommend coming here. read more

Dropped 1 star from our last visit. Yet, still nice place While the service was friendly, we were a little disappointed in our drinks. We ordered Old Fashion's with Woodford Reserve Double Oaked and unlike our last visit, we did not get a good mix, instead they were more like glasses of sipping whiskey instead of Old Fashions. As far as the food went, I ordered the Nashville Chicken and while it was good, in my opinion the chicken was over spiced, as a result, it was not outstanding, in fact Popeye's spicy chicken might be better. My wife ordered the Salmon and while overall her dish was good, the Salmon needed the corn to add flavor. I will conclude with the fact that the overall pairing of the food and drinks is still exceptional. read more

Always a great time! Toni makes amazing drinks and staff is always attentive and friendly. Their feature dishes are always creative and amazing. During the summer the patio seating is at a premium, so reservations recommended. Not to be missed! read more

Service here is amazing, don't forget to ask for Ashley! Some of my favorite dishes are the braised short rib and southern chicken salad.

The food is always good but the service is always top notch. Ashley does a great job and we try to get her everytime we go!

Love the atmosphere. Great food and quality service. Ashley always takes great care of us!

Great food and service, but the noise level in the restaurant practically left my ears ringing. Too bad, because other than the fact that I could not hear the person next to me without leaning close and almost shouting, forget about talking with my friends across the table, it is a nice environment. read more

Everything was absolutely spot on! Braised beef was tender and the collards were bursting with flavor. My son loved the shrimp and grits as well. Highly recommend the pork belly burnt ends and jambalaya too! Chelsea crushed it on the floor. Five stars all the way around! read more

Fun place! There were 9 of us on a busy night. Service was outstanding, food was great, and everyone had a great time.

The bourbon selection, the food, the atmosphere... can't say enough good things about this place. but the one thing that keeps me coming back is the service!! last time I went for dinner, my server Rachel just went above and beyond to make sure I had the best experience!! she was very attentive and so funny, we will be back just to see her again lol read more

Food was great, Rachel was better with her excellent service! I will recommend others to stop in for the great service.

Been here multiple times and don't understand how I've never reviewed them! Just make the reservation and GO! Don't walk! Amazing all around from brunch in their dining area to dinner at the bar. Dress classy; you'll match their drink selection. read more

Husband and I came to town for a Kentucky Derby party from STL. I'd searched for best bars and saw positive reviews. We showed up around 9. I wanted to sit at bar. It was full. I stood by a partition and was going to text my husband that there was no seating. I'd be right out. Instead. A waitress approached me as a squatter and offered to get me a drink. My husband came in, she brought our wines, and seating at the bar became available at the same time. Not rating food this time bc I only had Mac n cheese. But it was awesome. Good service and I loved the upscale yet lively vibe read more

The bellini's tasted good, music being played inside was nice, and the service was great and fast. They were always quick with refills. The eggs Benedict tasted pretty good, the hollandaise had the correct consistency and taste, ham was thick but still good, the egg however was overcooked. The yolk was solid and not runny, Gordon Ramsey wouldn't approve. read more

It was our first time visiting Bourbons, but I had heard good things about the experience so I wanted to give it a try for a date night. We saw that there were homecoming parties taking pictures nearby so we wondered if there was going to be an issue getting seated but the hostess was so awesome to us - they put our name on a list since we weren't ready to eat and wanted to walk around downtown and explore. It wasn't your standard wait list where they call or text you when a table was ready. Basically we walked around, had drinks elsewhere and came back when we were ready to eat. They had us sit for a second and moved us right to the front of the queue and got seated within five mins. We started with an old fashioned and the blueberry martini. Both were excellent. The blueberry martini itself wasn't overwhelmingly sweet, mostly light and fresh, but it did have sugar on the rim. While enjoying our drinks it was easy to notice that the atmosphere itself was pleasant: the noise level was a little elevated with how many parties there were but not so much that you need to talk louder by any means. It was a good level for a date night on a sunny Saturday afternoon. We ordered the 6 oz. filet and and prime rib entrees from the dinner menu, and I would say the time it took for us to get our food was perfect. The filet was perfectly cooked medium rare as ordered and came with a slightly spicy pat of cajun herb butter on top. It was served with grilled asparagus and a creamy mushroom risotto. The flavors really just made sense together, but the one concern with this dish is that the asparagus was slightly overcooked. Sadly nothing is worse that overcooked vegetables. The prime rib dish was exquisite: perfectly tender meat with a robust au ju, paired with mashed potatoes and collard greens. A lot of restaurants overly work mashed potatoes, but not so with this restaurant - they retained the natural potato flavor and consistency, without relying so much on cream based ingredients to make them fluffy or creamy. It reminded me of authentic southern home cooking. The collard greens were prepared with bacon and sitting in the au ju, which worked wonderfully. This dish was also enormously portioned so be prepared to take some home. Altogether we experienced very friendly hosts and wait staff, excellent drinks, an inviting atmosphere, and delicious food. I think the only negative aspect of our dining experience was the overcooked asparagus, but everything else was so good that it wouldn't even be fair to knock of a star of the review for that. Bourbons was one of the best quality dining experiences we have had in some time and I highly recommend it to anyone that likes a good southern-style dinner. read more

Oh boy when I went here I was on a first date with probably the worst Date ever... So I really rushed through this meal and didn't get to enjoy everything. My lasagna was so damn good I will definitely be going back for that but my favorite part of my experience was the manager/server God. I hope I remember his name correctly. I want to say Jeff if you go there, ask for him nothing but a fun time being served by him. He made my God awful date experience way better I chatted with him more than my date. Lol go check it out.
