We went there last Friday night and had great service and great food. We sat at the bar and the bartenders were outstanding. The food came out just the way it should and it was nice and hot. Thanks ladies, we will be back. The place was very clean and 5 stars is what I would give for sure.

My wife and I had a lunch here and the food was excellent and we were both surprised how good the flavor was. The service, however, was very slow. It took over 20 minutes to get our appetizer, and apart from a couple at the bar, we were the ONLY ones in the restaurant. The server would disappear making it hard to get drink refills and the manager type lady was outside smoking. When she returned she couldn't stop coughing everywhere. This was off-putting. At least smoke out the back instead of the front. The food here is very good and with improved service it could be the areas top restaurant.

I finally had a chance to eat here for lunch and I enjoyed it very much. The menu offers a different selection than most other places in town with some interesting and creative items. My only complaint is that the service was slow. I have limited time at lunch because of work making this unsuitable in the time I have allowed. I'll be trying for dinner though soon.

My husband and I have now visited Bourbon Street three times. Each time we were pleased with the portions and presentation of the food. In fact, the portions are more than adequate. The first two visits were uneventful, however, our visit last night was not so great. It was obvious people were having a great time with the new piano bar, but it diminished our dining experience. The music and singing was so loud that we couldn't hear the waiter telling us about the specials. We couldn't hear the waiter no matter how loud he shouted. We only picked up bits and pieces of the specials. My husband and I were unable to have a conversation and had to shout to say anything.
My steak (petite filet) was very good, tender and cooked just how I asked. My husband's stuffed flounder was not as good. The crab stuffing tasted like fishy bread and was mushy. The flounder was also "fishy" which isn't the way flounder is supposed to taste. My guess is that it was previously frozen. It was also drowning in goopy sauce. The garlic mashed potatoes are tasty but somewhat gummy - something that happens when potatoes are over cooked or over processed. The steamed vegetables were fine. The bread was fresh but boring. It was a sliced white baguette with hard butter in a plastic cup.
I'm sorry we had this experience because we probably will not be back. With the prices they charge, it simply isn't worth the risk.

We had dinner tonight and were very pleased with the quality of food and the quantity. We had the stuffed flounder, the redfish and the Captain's platter. Everything was excellent. The garlic mashed potatoes and the mixed vegetables were very tasty. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will definitely go back. My only complaint is that the menu lists red beans and rice and it is NOT what I expected. Their red beans and rice is not even close to the normal Louisiana version but their version is very tasty in its own right, although there was not a red bean anywhere in it.

Once again, a fantastic meal at prime time on Saturday night. Seafood meal for two was cooked perfectly and very affordable for how many types of seafood you get. Fun atmosphere. We no longer wait in long lines at local chain restaurants, just walk right in and get a great meal at Bourbon Street. Great weekend entertainment. We'll be back again soon!

No better way but to say excellent. The Shrimp Scampi is to die for. We had a wonderful time last Saturday, the place is getting better and better and better.

We go to Bourbon Street often. With the few choices we have here in PC for a good meal this is the best! The veal bourbon is fantastic!!! The prices fit well with the portions! The staff is very nice and usually everything runs perfectly. The owners are WONDERFUL people and have turned this restaurant into a great place for food and entertainment. We have not been in for their new brunch menu but we plan to try it soon. If it's anything like dinner time I know we'll be very happy!!

I've eaten at Bourbon Street many times as well, and have found that the food is exquisite. The portions are wonderful and the prices are justified by the amount of food you get. Great atmosphere, and the entertainment is wonderful.. Its the best place here in Palm Coast.. Everyone should try it.

I had several terrible experiences at this establishment that ranged from cold food, long waits, to raw pork and under cooked chicken. Needless to say I will never eat there again and would caution everyone when trying Bourbon Street. Numerous people I know have had the same experiences and more and more people I meet say the food is not the best and most of the time it is cold.

My husband and I came to try this place out a friend had told us about. Well I wish had never told us to come here its a waste of money. I had the prime rib special and it was under cooked and I tried it any way and it had no flavor at all. The vegetables were cold and the mashed potatoes were not that great. My husband was not impressed either. The only thing I liked about this place was the drinks and the entertainment. The waitress and busser were very pleasant to us but we will not be back. The chefs need to be retrained or replaced. Very very disappointed.

I have been here over 10 times and not once was disappointed. The portions are large, and the food is great. We always take guests there. I will add that I have not been there for lunch and only for dinner. Service is always attentive, and their bread pudding dessert serves the whole table! Always happy to return, one of the best restaurants Palm Coast has to offer.

I love this place! We have been there many times for lunch as well as dinner and we return because the food and the service are always excellent. The servers and the hosts are equally hospitable.

My husband and I met another couple for lunch last week at the Bourbon Street Grill. It was highly praised by our friends but I must say it was added to our list of "Life"s Bitter Disappointments". We arrived at 12:30 to find two large groups who seemed to be served by the two servers who were doing the best they could. We placed our orders for black & blue hamburger and 3 fish sandwiches. We all asked for a double order of coleslaw and no fries. They ran out of slaw and brought us fries. Our orders were served at 2:00 and we left at 2:30. Too long to wait for lunch and food was just mediocre. What a Disappointment.

We were at the Bourbon St Grille last night and had a bad dining experience. There were three in our party and the restaurant was full. But I dare say with the good reviews this place has received it should be prepared for a full dining room. We were seated in the back at an open table and a member of our party kept having to duck his head for fear of getting hit on the head with a passing tray.
We were seated, the restaurant was busy and we were left at the table waiting. Finally the server came and took the appetizer and drink order. We were kept waiting for at least half an hour at an empty table between the appetizer and main course with no one returning to ask for another drink order or to let us know what was going on with our dinner. Looking around I saw many tables in the same situation waiting for their dinner. I was even asked how long did we wait for our dinner!
The meal finally came with an apology - but the vegetables were luke warm, the fish was over done, when it was asked to be rare to medium. Pepper was asked for and forgotten. The server stopped back to ask if we needed anything and by then we were half way through our meal and didn't think we would get anything we ask for anyway.

Uhm, ok, WHO ARE WRITING THESE REVIEWS?! Hubby and I decided to try this place and it was a joke! Dirty plates and empty glasses stayed on our table all night, how annoying. Secondly the Oyster Trio was ridiculous ($13.99 for 12). My hubby and I are foodies, we dine out a lot, we know good oysters. The "trio" was the same sauce all over all the oysters and 4 had spinach on top? My steamed vegetables were nowhere to be found in my entree ,as described on the menu, but there were a few tablespoons of chopped tomato on top, so maybe that was them? $17 for an entree that isn't anything like what is described in the menu and includes no salad? HA! If this place has the freshest seafood/ best tasting food you people have ever had then your missing out! We would definitely not return. This is far from fine dining!

This was by far one of the most pleasant surprises in dining I have had in Palm Coast. The seafood I ordered was the best I have had in 18 years living in Florida. My scallops and shrimp were succulent and very tasty as was the flounder. The side dishes stood out as well, especially the whole baby carrots that were sautéed in maple syrup and brown sugar with a splash of cognac. I could have eaten a bowlful! The wait staff were wonderful, very knowledgeable, very pleasant and not at all hovering. Bourbon Street should set the standard for dining in Palm Coast. Cannot wait to go back and experience it again!

Went there for dinner several days ago. I had the Shrimp Etouffe and thought it was EXCELLENT. The shrimp was cooked perfectly. They were big shrimp as well. The wait staff was friendly and knowledgeable.
I can't wait to visit again. It is always good to have a good place to take guests.
