★★★★★ 5.0 Chris Rankin · Nov 2025

We stopped by last night for dinner at this place. Great experience! Debra had the Fall Cobb salad and loved it! I had the Pork tenders with apples and Brussel sprouts. Both entrees were outstanding! The Fall salad had corn relish and black beans in addition to the tried and true Cobb Salad elements. Yum! I can’t say enough compliments about the pork, It was sliced (1/2 inch thick), breaded, and deep fried. Yummy! She puts a locally made chutney sauce with it, perfect balance.! I love Brussels and have had a lot of them, these were in the top 3!! The Brussels and apples mix had an apple sauce carrier. Lovely! Debra had a Manhattan while our food was being prepared. It was wonderful!! We will be back!

I ordered The Roast on Pita and it was phenomenal. Fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. I’ll definitely be coming back! The homemade Mac & Cheese was the perfect touch! Oh and please do yourself a favor and get the Spinach Artichoke dip to start! 🤍

This place is a hidden gem! The food is made from scratch and absolutely loaded with flavor and comes to the table so fresh! Service is friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. Atmosphere is so clean, tidy, and comfortable. Hands down the best place in all of Bolivar in my opinion. We will be back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Riva Barham · Apr 2024

Took myself out on a date to Basil & Bourbon tonight and was extremely satisfied with my meal. I ordered the Coffee BBQ Burger with a side salad, with Beer Battered Fries as an appetizer. Everything was cooked to order, perfectly seasoned, and so delicious! My server, Heather, was witty, wonderful, and very polite. She never let my sweet tea get low, and always came to my table with a smile. 10/10 I will be returning!
