Larry was an awesome server, super attentive and quick. The space was very loud though making it difficult to hear the person I was with.

We love Bourbons. Our waitress Chelsea S was amazing. We had an early dinner with our special needs daughter, she made sure our food came out fast and our drinks stayed filled and cold. She went above and beyond. She noticed my ice tea had no ice as it melted and brought me a cup of ice. I’m not one to ask for a lot, so it was awesome that she noticed. 😊

The food just keeps getting better, service is impeccable, and the staff are the amazing. Finally tried the chicken and waffle (it is hard not to order the short rib benedict) and I now have a new favorite. The staff all make you feel like family and never make you feel like you are rushed. But the bacon - come for that if nothing else (with some bourbon).
