    It was a drive, but end the end, worth it. We loved the quaint setting and food was awesome. Bloody Marys were great both Vodka and Bourbon style. French Onion soup was super good!

    We had a wonderful time celebrating my birthday at Steak & Bourbon in Westport Village last night. Thanks to Ole' Restaurant Group owner Fernando Martinez and his amazing team, everything was 5 stars. Their Beef Tartare' is the best of the very best, in fact all of the food, the service, the cocktails and wine lists, the beautiful dining rooms and vibe were off the charts . It does not need to be a special occasion to dine at this truly wonderful hot spot. Reservations are highly recommended and of course OpenTable is your ticket for that.

    We went to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday with his family. The food was amazing--everyone at the table was very happy with their meal. Katelyn was our server and she did a fantastic job. We even had another server (didn't catch her name) come to the table and take the ice cream cake we'd brought to the freezer. She also brought plates and serving utensils without being asked. Everyone who waited on us was very attentive and anticipated our needs perfectly. All in all, a wonderful experience.

    We had an amazing experience! Despite running late for our reservation, the staff was incredibly understanding accommodating. When we unexpectedly added an extra guest, they went above and beyond to find a bigger table and still seated us on time. The hostess provided excellent customer service, making us feel welcome and valued. The entire experience with seamless, and we truly appreciated their kindness and efficiency. Highly recommend this restaurant for both the food and outstanding hospitality!
