Delicious food! Portions sizes were great! Our leftovers are much appreciated. Had a wonderful time!

Excessively loud music in a cave-like atmosphere. Very few brunch options and the ones we had were just alright but priced quite high.

Great food. Perfect place for sharing. Everything comes out fast and hot and then you just take your time and hang out. We sat down in the bar area at a high top which had a great vibe.

Other than a strange woman at the table next to us staring at me and my group until she and her companion left, I had a lovely experience. Great food and drinks and our waiter was super nice and helpful. Would recommend.

The food was great and love the location. The service was not great. They forgot my food, which happens and took it off the bill but were not super attentive. Had much better service. Just a bad day I'm guessing.

It's a cool vibe. However, the room we were seated in was so dark. I'm not sure why that's needed. We weren't the only ones who had trouble seeing the menu. A couple of other tables used the flashlights on their phones. Our server was great, and she made some good suggestions for us. Cocktails were good, but my drink was premade per our server. The food was average. I really wanted it to be fantastic because a few people had recommended Buttermilk & Bourbon to us. I don't know if I just had it hyped up so much in my mind that it was actually a letdown. Our breakfast was good. It's not great, but average. Though I will say the tater tots are absolutely delicious! Unfortunately, I think there are better places for breakfast. We were told food comes out as it's ready. It seemed too, but several of our plates were close to room temperature, so I don't know if that's actually true. Seemed like our orders maybe sat there for a bit. In our experience, overall, staff are friendly and super attentive. Food was average at best.

Biscuits were way too soggy... the back room was really too dark for brunch. The servers seemed overwhelmed but were pleasant and efficient.

Lived up to the hype. The biscuits are to die for and the chicken thighs were moist & delicious. Brought home leftovers & had chicken on a biscuit for breakfast. Great cocktails too!

This was my second time. Our daughter moved to Boston in May, and we discovered it while moving her in. This time, my husband and Parents were able to join. Such a fun night! Delicious food and drink. Fun atmosphere. Great service. Fried chicken is a favorite. Another is the whipped feta - yum!

Donna

Fabulous, fun and delicious food and drinks. We had the most wonderful time at B & B and it was mainly due to Elsa who was friendly , informative about the menu and didn't rush us so we could saviour and enjoy the food and atmosphere . Elsa made the night so much fun. Sisters from Australia .

Wonderful restaurant. The buttermilk fried chicken was delicious. Service was great. We would definitely go again.

I am never one to do these, but I had higher expectations for this restaurant and I was really looking forward to it. I was sadly disappointed. It started w both hostesses spending far too much time preoccupied w their phones before we were finally acknowledged. Sophia, our waitress, was very nice, but barely around. She kept saying she'd be right back, yet right back meant 10 to 15 minutes later. I definitely did not receive the correct drink because it tasted nothing like pineapple and was totally inedible. My husband's the same. She went out of her way to talk about the competition between the servers and bartenders at the table next to us which is a little shocking due to the service we received. I will say the biscuits and the fried chicken sliders were good, but the duck was very dry. As mentioned, I was severely disappointed. No courtesy was offered to remove the drink and honestly the staff seemed overwhelmed. I wish I spent the hundred bucks on a place I knew would meet my expectations rather than trying something new and exciting for a change, rather than being let down.

Buttermilk & Bourbon es un restaurante que encarna a la perfección los tres grandes conceptos que todos buscamos al salir a comer: bueno, bonito y barato. Desde el primer momento, el local sorprende por su ambiente moderno y desenfadado, con una decoración que mezcla lo acogedor con lo vibrante, creando un entorno donde apetece quedarse un buen rato disfrutando. La iluminación tenue, la música agradable y la disposición de las mesas contribuyen a una experiencia que combina informalidad con estilo. La comida es, sin duda, el punto fuerte. Inspirada en la cocina del sur de Estados Unidos, cada plato llega lleno de sabor y con una presentación cuidada. El pollo frito, jugoso y crujiente, es una de las estrellas de la carta, acompañado de salsas que elevan aún más la experiencia. Los cócteles, creativos y refrescantes, están a la altura de la propuesta gastronómica y completan el disfrute. Todo ello con precios sorprendentemente razonables para la calidad que se ofrece, lo que refuerza la sensación de estar en un lugar donde se recibe más de lo que se paga. El personal también contribuye a la buena impresión: atentos, rápidos y siempre con una sonrisa, hacen que el servicio fluya con naturalidad y sin esperas innecesarias. Esta combinación de ambiente, cocina y trato hace que Buttermilk & Bourbon destaque como una opción excelente en Boston, ideal tanto para una cena con amigos como para una ocasión más especial, siempre con la seguridad de salir satisfecho.
