Buttermilk & Bourbon - Arsenal Yards

So I thought it was weird that they served the shrimp cocktail shrimp inside of the shell. I removed one shell and then remembered that there is a sort of vein containing poop, and i got too grossed out to continue.
Is this normal, ive never been served it this way before.

All 3 of us enjoyed our food and drinks.parking garage here is fee free

The menus items are fusion of different cuisine, which are quite fun to try. All dishes are medium sized tapas style, each person probably needs about 1.5 dishes. The alligator meat is exotic, and tastes quite nice. There are other dishes that are a little salty and too strong in flavor that left a strange after taste, hence the four stars for the food. We did not finish the duck and the ribs.

Came for the girls menu and oysters - everything was delicious and our server (Sarah?) Was friendly and quick with our drinks. Had a blast, will be back

Absolutely love it here! Drinks are amazing, food is delicious & always comes out SO fast. I absolutely love one of their bartenders, Christina! She’s the bomb. Also Jasmine, one of the servers! She’s so sweet & attentive :)

Good is great for the price

Have always had a good experience here. Love the outdoor seating on a summer night. Good gluten free options.

One suggestion: if 7 people are asking for a variety of appetizers to share (specified "to share"), we suggest the servers provide serving utensils so we each can use them. We resorted to using our forks which, of course, had already been in our mouths. And our own knives to cut the biscuits. Not THAT much of a big deal, but it would have been considerate to have utensils for the "sharing" process. Food was good, especially the sliders and fried chicken and biscuits(yum) and beignets (also yum). Our waiter was responsive, friendly, and dignified.(Nico?) Did his best to accommodate all those people and all those dishes(!) We hated the music and asked if it could be turned down. He warned us that they would not turn it down. Wished we were outside so we wouldn't have to listen to it, but it was cold.... Folks at the reception desk were friendly and accommodating. Very kind. Atmosphere (except for the music) good. All in all we had a good experience...

Told me to sit at the bar… plenty of tables available. Eventually sat at a table, noone talk to me for 17 minutes eventually someone asked if I was waiting for someone I said no and got some warm water. I ordered sliders and shrimp cocktail… oysters arrived I sent them back… shrimp finally came $24 for six had to take shells off myself. Asked for water none came… asked again for ice water, warm water came as I was leaving. $50 for two chicken sliders and shrimp cocktail and warm water. Could be worse… could be better.

Honestly one of my favorite places. While not just like back home, it is as close as I can get up here. All that's missing is sweet tea!

Went for brunch, and food was good, but service was slow and inattentive. Restaurant was not all that busy, but getting the attention of our server and support staff was difficult. Food took longer than normal to come out of the kitchen and a request for ketchup took well over 10 min. Dinner service is far better than brunch.

The server was friendly and attentive. The food was good. I ordered the rib dish which was fairly good except for one of my ribs was overcooked and inedible. I informed the server of this and she acknowledged it but made no attempt to address the matter.

Our waitress Carolina was great! She recommended the spicy crawfish tacos which were amazing but we were disappointed by everything else we ordered. We sat outside since the AC was pretty cold inside but it was pretty windy out, and the beignet dough looked more like it was made from a croissant dough. Not bad again, I would go back for the tacos but other than that, not trying again.

I wouldn't call the noise level energetic as much as LOUD the music wa bumping and we had to scream to talk to each other and we are only forty we aren't even old people looking for something to complain about.

I thought the bar tender was not friendly and also not too smart about drinks. When I asked what kinds of gin they had for a gin martini she replied I don't really know because we don't really do gin drinks here. Also she was going to charge me 19 for 1.5 shots of gin an a plain martini. Is this place really that fancy? I am used to 13-15 for the house gin. We also didn't like that there is no draft beer. Not our type of place. Won't be back.
