    What a wonderful establishment. The service from check in till leaving was exceptional. We were working with elderly parents and managing a walker. Staff took such great care of us. Food was so yummy. When I am back in town I will be returning. Bonus Downtown Brighton is so charming.

    Food is very good. Service was excellent but the noise level made it hard to have a conversation. Think I will try a weekday and not the weekend next time.

    We were seated within a few minutes of our reservation time even though it was an extremely busy night. The staff was kind and calm, even in the chaos of a busy restaurant. Our waiter was great and our food delicious. We’ll be back (again)!

    Food and service was great! I Had a 5:30 reservation for three people and we were finally seated at a two top at 6:10. We were cramped but had no choice because we had movie tickets for 7:05. We were thankfully served quickly and our food was tasty but rushed. Also, the room to the front left was extremely loud and we could barely hear each other.

    Once again, Bourbons did not disappoint. Nate gave us his usual warm welcome and Will provided exceptional service as always. Our meals were fantastic and the hot chocolate was perfect for a snowy evening! It was great returning to Bourbons after a few weeks out of town and seeing Rachel, KB, Shane and the rest of the amazing staff.

    Decided on Bourbons as a midway point between Grand Blanc and Canton to meet friends. First time visiting and won’t be the last. The service provided by Emily was timely and attentive. Great food, great price, great ambiance, great decision.
