Reviews summary

Cozy, unassuming eatery praised for huge, well-priced portions and bold flavors. The wide menu — bourbon, Cajun and jerk chicken, fried rice, baked potatoes, mac and cheese, cornbread and Greek fries — delivers comfort-food value and friendly service that keeps customers returning.

Recent inconsistencies include slower service, occasional dry rice, under-sauced or bone-in bourbon chicken and uneven gyro quality. A great option for hearty, affordable meals, but expect variable service and food consistency.

We had our first taste of Mr. Bourbon deliciousness last night... and it was SO GOOD! We tried all the chicken: bourbon, Cajun, jerk, and we loved them all! The mac cheese is so creamy, the cornbread is super moist almost milky, and the Cajunpotatoes are Amazing! The staff was very kind helpful, and the entire experience was just Awesome! We will definitely be backfor more yum!

Since the new take over, the service is slow ????. The Bourbon chicken has bones and that was never the case, it was so awful , my paper towel was full of bones and the rice was dry. Very disappointed, l truly wish the original man that was their beforethis new group of people would come back. I no longer have a desire to eat at this place.

I tried it for the first time yesterday I purchased the gyro and greek fries and the bourbon chicken sandwich side of steam veg. I feel that the bourbon chicken sandwich should of had more of the bourbon sauce because the flavor was bland. I did enjoy thegreek fries and the steam veg. ????. The gyro, I guess that I've been spoiled with another gyro restaurant near the Dayton malland these are the reasons that I gave it two stars. You don't have to take my word try it out and give your review.

I love bourbon chicken and was excited to try a new place. I ordered online for pickup and when I went in there was a paper that said all chicken now has bones? okay Im thinking some wings or legs?. Well they were thighs and legs, however I?m pretty surethere was an entire left leg in my box starting at the thigh allll the way down to the toenails. I can?t take a pic because if Ilook at it again I will vomit. I do give this 2 stars because the potatoes, and rice that I tried before I noticed the foot wereactually bomb.

I was recommended this place by a friend, but I really didn't enjoy my experience. The chicken rice and potatoes were dry, and I requested extra bourbon sauce on top, but it never arrived. I won't be returning and will stick to Bourbon Street on Brown Street instead.

I visited the restaurant for the first time yesterday and ordered the gyro, Greek fries, and a bourbon chicken sandwich with a side of steamed vegetables. I found the bourbon chicken sandwich lacking in flavor; it could have used more bourbon sauce. However, I really enjoyed the Greek fries and the steamed vegetables. As for the gyro, I think I've been spoiled by another gyro place near the Dayton mall. This is why I rated my experience two stars. But don't just take my word for it—give it a try and share your own thoughts!

The sea bass dinner feels more like a potato dish with a small piece of fish on top. For $15, I expected more than just an average piece of fish, along with an abundance of soggy potatoes and very bland vegetables.

I visited this restaurant and ordered the salmon dinner, and I have to say I was very disappointed. They served me a massive portion of rice to disguise the small and flimsy piece of salmon I received. It felt like the staff might have sampled it before I even arrived! It was such a letdown! The prices are too high for such a meager portion meant for ants rather than hungry customers. I’ll be cooking my own salmon from now on—I definitely won't be returning.

I ordered the Greek Salad, but it didn’t resemble a Greek salad at all.

Since the new management took over, the service has been slow. The Bourbon chicken I received had bones in it, which was never an issue before. It was quite disappointing—my paper towel ended up full of bones, and the rice was dry. I genuinely wish the original owner who was there before this new group would come back. I no longer have any desire to eat at this restaurant.

Do not eat here! They are rude and think it's funny to play with people's food. I wanted to try a different bourbon place so decide to come here. When I got there I was concerned about the LACK of dinner rush traffic but I give it a chance and walked in anyway. I see a sign that says no redos or remakes which is red flag #2 but I see two young black women so I decide to support the team. I order my usual bourbon chicken with steamed veggies and Cajun potatoes. After ordering I asked what was up with the sign, if something was wrong with the food or if there was anything I needed to know. The two girls looked back and forth at each other and then started to smile... no one answered my question... instead one girl says how she's ready to go home so I ask AGAIN excuse me ummm is there something wrong with this food? Am I about to get food poisoning? She hesitates and says nah you good you good and chuckles... UMMMM EXCUSE ME! NOT NO BUT HELL NO! MEANWHILE THE OTHER GIRL IS STILL OVER THERE GRINNING! NO I DON'T WANT THE FOOD. SHE HANDS ME THE BAG ANYWAYS.... NEEDLESS TO SAY THE FOOD IS IN THE TRASH IM OUT $20 OMW TO BOURBON STREET AND WONT GET HOME TILL ABOUT 9!
