We moved down here five years ago, I’ve been to every restaurant within 20 miles, Osage Beach etc. etc. this was the best restaurant that I’ve been to I travel all over the US and go to many many restaurant. Their food and their service was excellent better than any of the high dollar restaurant over in Osage Beach I had the 6 ounce fillet I could have cut it with a toothpick their appetizers were absolutely delicious I could recommended higher than 10.

I love gourmet food, reasonably priced, good portions, and a nice atmosphere. This one checks all the boxes and more! The staff are attentive and delightful, and the owner is a sweetheart. Aside from all the things you’d expect from finer dining they include lower priced, but delicious items to make it an every person menu. Great burgers & chicken strips. I don’t usually order appetizers but here I have to! They are so unique and delicious, I could eat them for my meal, except I don’t want to Moses out on the Great entrees! Highly recommend: the crab cakes (some of the best I’ve ever had) the shrimp cargo, fried rangoon that has thin sliced prime rib and cream cheese in it with a dipping sauce-delicious! The calamari, the chicken or shrimp with a bang! Entrées definitely the salmon or prime rib, my husband loves the fettuccine Alfredo. You won’t want to miss this gem, and my guess is you want to return over and over!

Food drinks and service were all amazing. We were greeted by the owner and shown to our table. Server did an awesome job. Food was fresh and obviously delicious. I had the steak and lobster special and escargot. Can’t wait to go back

My wife and I were big Bourbon Barrel fans when it first opened, and I did a review of 4 stars. Since it reopened, we have been there a couple of times, the most recent was yesterday (8/5/2022).
Decor: Very Nice. Clean and intimate. I enjoy the eclectic bourbon themed decor, but it can get a bit loud.
Service: Average. Our server was friendly and well groomed. She forgot to mention the specials and by the time we were ready to order dessert our water glasses had been empty for a while.
Food: Average. We both ordered the small prime rib dinner. For my side I had a baked potato, which was very good (not dry on the inside). My wife ordered the oven baked brussel sprouts. They had good flavor but were chewy. We both had the french onion soup, which was excellent (as always).
The prime rib fell short. In my last two visits I ordered the prime rib medium rare and, in both cases, it came out closer to medium. With that in mind my wife requested, her prime rib, as medium with a leaning towards medium rare (her previous experience was that she ordered her steak, medium and it came out closer to well done). I did add a fried lobster tail to my meal and I enjoyed that very much.
For dessert I ordered the seven-layer chocolate cake and my wife ordered the crem brule cheesecake. My chocolate cake was very good and rich. I had to bring it home. The cheesecake was a great disappointment. We were expecting a piece of cheesecake with a top layer of caramelized sugar (as you would expect in a crem bule). Instead, it was piece of cheesecake with caramel topping
Summary: For the price I am not sure it is worth another chance

Visited the restaurant tonight to celebrate my wife’s birthday. I ordered the ribeye steak and it was a thinner cut than I expected and fatty, tasted okay. My wife ordered the walleye dinner is said it was very good. No dinner rolls served with our meals. They have a bourbon menu with no prices on it, when we inquired about pricing our waitress said she would have to check with the bartender. My wife ordered Riegers on the rocks and were charged $11, I’ll let you decide if that is a fair deal. I wouldn’t compare this restaurant to Baxter’s but you’ll pay about the same and have no view of the lake.

we went there for husband birthday and the food was delicious. Nice atmosphere. Prices a little high but we expected that. Good service and friendly staff. Really enjoyed the evening. There's several places to eat in Laurie and all good but this is fine dining at the best.

The prime rib was the best, that we've ever eaten, anywhere. It was tender and flavorful. Everyone loved their entrees. The service was excellent.
