Bourbon‘s Kitchen

Go here! Don’t pass this place up. This place is a vibe! The food is a vibe! The drinks are a vibe! Plus, amazing service to back it up. Quite possibly some of the best chicken wings I’ve ever had. Great burger, tried my friends chicken and waffles and that was amazing as well. Will definitely be back the next time I’m in the area.

What a hidden gem in Middletown Ohio. (Middleton to us Northern folk) Well maybe not so hidden. As we were leaving around noon, the place was filling up fast. The food was absolutely delicious. The chicken wings as a starter are a must have. The Chicken and Waffles are too. The food is delicately crafted, full of flavor, and come on very amazing dinnerware/plating. The place is jamming with music(maybe just a little too loud for some), friendly staff, and has a good vibe. I have a feeling they will be out growing the size they are in now. Give them some love soon, you won't regret it.

It felt like they were going for fine dining but missed the mark. However, they definitely charge fine dining prices. The food is great, but it has somewhat of a fast-casual feel. We sat at the bar next to the kitchen and heard the chef and the bartender make passive-aggressive comments to each other the whole time. That being said, they really do a great job on the food. We ordered a variety of items and were impressed by all.

Overall: 9/10. Excellent food options make this hidden gem a hit! Offering superb food, drinks, and service to match, I highly recommend this place to anyone - especially those who are craving a great, inspiring burger and phenomenal French fries. 1) Atmosphere: 5/10 - very small diner feel with overflow seating in the space next door. They desperately need to redo the interior. 2) Food allergies: ?/10 - unsure about dietary restrictions. 3) Drinks: 8/10 - While they don't have an exhaustive list of beer and cocktails compared to other places, they do execute their list well. The whiskey selection is far superior to others around, that's for sure. Beer selection is acceptable and par for the course. 4) Appetizers: 9.3/10 - the appetizer list was on the small/medium sized and all were very good. The chips and various dips were really awesome. They rivaled Mexican restaurants! 5) Food: 9.6/10 - the selection is just right; not too little, not overwhelming like cheesecake factory. The menu items aren't "standard offerings" you see in every diner/american restaurant. These take it up a notch and offer you inspired dishes with some flaire. Offering something for everyone, Bourbon's knocks every item out of the park, every time. Known for their burgers, you still can't go wrong ordering their chicken dishes or salads. Do. Not. Skip. The. Fries. I can't make this more clear - order the fries. They're great. However, you really can't order a bad item here. 6) Dessert: delicious options that don't miss. Something for everyone, though I'm not one to normally order dessert at a restaurant. 7) Reservations: not required, but recommended. This place can book up on popular nights. 8) Cleanliness: 10/10 - floors, tables, plates, silverware, and employees are all neat and clean. 9) Service: 7/10 - not super attentive, but friendly, to the point and we didn't have to wait or hunt down our server. An above average experience but nothing stellar.

Best meal I have had out in a long time! Everything I got was absolutely delicious! I savored every bite of my food and every drop of my cocktails. I'm sure I looked like an insane person to everyone around me at the bar by how much I was enjoying everything. 🤤😆🥃 The staff was also incredibly attentive and friendly. The bartender made sure I was nice and hydrated between drinks which was much appreciated. 👍 I will most definitely be back!
