Bosscat Kitchen & Libations perfectly meshes upscale and casual dining with an expansive whiskey selection and unique offering of American comfort food. It offers high energy, open spaced concepts to promote a lively dining experience. With the rustic industrial aesthetic, brick metal and barrels are prevalent in the space. One of its best attractions is the famous whiskey room, that houses hundreds of whiskies from several countries. From high end whiskies like Pappy Van Winkle, to a shot of Jameson & Coors Light, there is something here for everyone's taste; and Bosscat prides itself on being this type of environment. New flavors and recipes are often brought into the kitchen. All cooks on staff are encouraged to brainstorm and eat with the executive chef, Peter Petro. This collaborative process is the foundation of their culinary art. Encouraging and fostering new ideas with seasonal produce, meats and spices fosters the fun and unique dining experience they so strongly emulate.

    Bosscat is in lively downtown Orange. Ona Friday night, the streets are humming and sitting on the patio is perfect if you like to ‘be in the mix.’ The food was delicious and service very good. Our only hitch was it took a while to get our initial drinks. The manager popped over to apologize as they had run out of wine glasses. He was kind to pay for the round of drinks to compensate.

    Outstanding service. Christian was the man! Drinks are great. Food was really not that great. The brisket was really bad. Had that disgusting cafeteria gravy that's dark brown all over it. Food is pricey given the quality. Would return but for drinks and apps only. Pretty loud as well. Nothing for kids to eat.

    As a whole all three meals got the thumbs up. The Brick Chicken, The Pork Chop and the Salmon were amazing. The drinks were so good we had seconds. Our server was on the ball with helping us decide what to start with. Thank you Bosscats for a great night.

    Bosscat Orange never fails to disappoint. I took my son and his wife to introduce them to the restaurant. They just moved back here from Europe and are considering Orange Circle area as their residence. They loved it, said the best fried pickles he’s ever had. He had the delicious steak, we had the catch of the day, which was tilapia, also delicious. I had the happy hour cab, which was very tasty, an EOS, they enjoyed beers, which is hard to do in the states when coming from Germany. They thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will definitely return.

    The service was great mostly. Super friendly waitstaff and food was tasty and fresh. Attentiveness declined after we got the food but it was still ok. The ambience is a fun vibe and the retro decor and shout outs to the former Rods Liquor is a nice touch.

    Dinner at Bosscat NEVER disappoints! The food is excellent, the service is outstanding and the vibe is chill but a little loud. I had the steak,11 ounces of pure delicacy. I are every bite of it alone with the potato and green beans. A side a grits to top it off since this time I decided not to get the shrimp and grits, which is pure joy to eat. You can’t go wrong when eating at Bosscat! Get your reservation early as they are always crowded and rightfully so!!!

    Food was not very good, I order the short rib chilaquiles and they were not your traditional chilaquiles. They were tostadas layered with sauce and meat and it was not served warm/hot. Very disappointed in the brunch items offered. I would not recommend Bosscat for Brunch.

    We really enjoy the food and drink at Bosscat. The servers could be more attentive. It seems like they just disappear from time to time and leave us wondering. They'd sell more food and drink if the servers were just around to ask how they could make our time better!
