Excellent service. Excellent food. We ate here 2 nights and ate so much food. Everything was fresh, full of flavor, prepared perfectly and beautiful
My wife and I were very happy with the food, service, and drinks here. The bourbon selection is obviously awesome and to echo the other reviews, yes it is pricy but for an occasion, completely worth it.
Bourbons 72 is fantastic! Worth the money because the food will exceed your expectations. The casino and the restaurant took extra precautions to ensure safety during the pandemic and we felt very safe during our dinner.
Service was phenomenal! The ambiance was fantastic! The bourbon selection was on point and the food, OMG!!
Unbelievable food, drinks, great service. Bring lots of money though because its nit cheap. but well worth it. Thanks John for the great service Unbelievable food, drinks, great service. Bring lots of money though because its nit cheap. but well worth it. Thanks John for the great service.
