Bull & Bourbon is a cut above other steakhouses – literally. Our innovative approach to classic steakhouse cuisine makes for a multi-sensory experience. Enjoy steaks prepared on our custom wood burning grill paired with our extensive and hand-selected bourbon menu for flavors that beautifully complement each other. Because we source local coastal California seafood, use steaks cut from our in-house butcher program, and choose select cuts from our on-site aging room, we always start with top-quality ingredients to create mouthwatering dishes. You will always know from where your food has been sourced, and our chefs approach cooking as the true art that it is.

    The prime rib came out very cold. They should have heated the plates to make sure the meat was warm and also the auju was cold too

    Prime rib was good. Mashed potatoes were cold and zucchini was undercooked and tasted fishy. Over all was a good value for the prime rib special but feels like a Dennys meal in such a nice restaurant. I would love to try their normal menu.
    Bull & Bourbon SteakhouseResponded on 6 January 2025
    Tyler - We apologize for the issues you experienced with the mashed potatoes and zucchini. Your comments are invaluable to us, and we will address these concerns with our kitchen to ensure improvements are made. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope to have the pleasure of serving you again soon.

    The service was rushed. My steak was undercooked and the lobster was overcooked and dried out. This was not a good experience
    Bull & Bourbon SteakhouseResponded on 2 January 2025
    Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the rushed service and the issues with your meal. It is disappointing to hear that your steak was undercooked and the lobster was overcooked and dried out. This is not the standard of quality we strive to provide. Your comments will be shared with our culinary team to ensure improvements are made. We hope you will give us another opportunity to provide you with a much better dining experience in the future.
