1933 House of Bourbon - Edwardsville (IL)

5 /5 Fred Ehrman: The Indian food for lunch was really good. The Lamb Rogan Josh was the best I’ve ever had, with super tender lamb and a great sauce. Chicken tikka masala was made the good way, with the chicken cooked in a tandoori oven. And there were several other good dishes to be shared family style.The garlic naan was excellent. There was a friendly welcome from the owners and good service from the waiter and servers. And of course, I had to finish the meal with a great bourbon. We always enjoy our visit.

5 /5 Cresean Sweezey-Errar: Every occasion I’ve visited HOB, the quality, presentation, tradition-defining flavor, and vibrant colors across each perfectly plated dish have exceeded both my expectations and my standards. The staff is knowledgeable, and the chefs are genuinely accommodating, no small task when navigating the minefield that celiac disease creates during a 17th-anniversary dinner. One taste of the lamb shank and I am transported straight to the Jamaican roots of my palate. Mr. Bernard moves through the restaurant with quiet intention, ensuring the excellence he brings to Edwardsville is upheld at every single table. What an experience. Every taste, legendary.

3 /5 James Euler: My family went last Christmas Eve and we had a good time. So we went back there this year. What my wife wanted to order they were out of. My daughter went to order a mocktail and they waiter said they dont make them anymore. The water tasted like it had soap in it. And what my daughter wanted they didnt have either. My wife got the seafood cataloni my daughter had the salmon and I ordered the sirloin lasagna. I just looked interesting and I figured Id try it. When a meals finally came the waiter brought me spinach lasagna. And he actually tried to argue with me that I ordered it. The waiter seemed a very inexperienced. I asked him if I could order a virgin drink and he said I dont know but the drinks are pre-made anyway. That was his response. He told me then that another person ordered the sirloin lasagna and he got my meal and I got his. Sounded like a liar to me. Is he just told me the other person ordered the same meal as I did so how did I get his meal which was spinach lasagna. Needless to say at the chatting with the inexperienced waiter I finally got aggravated and I said just go away I dont want anything Ill just wait until my wife and daughter are done with dinner and Ill leave. He apologize several times and I asked him to please leave again and he kept on apologizing I finally had to look at him and say youre giving me very angry I really wish you would leave me alone. It was probably the worst dinner experience I have ever had in my life. I really think that theyre going to put somebody on their wait staff for the prices they charge they should make sure they were trained better than what we had. The water really bugged me too it smelled like it had chemicals in it.

5 /5 Crystal Thomas: I chose this place for our 18th wedding anniversary dinner. We had the best dinner and drinks, and the service was excellent. I did a whiskey flight, and the waitress was very informative and gave me great recommendations to try. Our steak was so delicious and big enough for us to share. I cant wait to go back and try other items on the menu. Its definitely a great place for a date night or a special occasion. I will be back!

5 /5 Lisa Johnson: Had 7:30pm reservations, got there early (we had just drove from Northern KY and starving) they were able to accommodate and seat us right away. Started with an Eagle Rare Old Fashioned and it was one of the best Ive ever had, great job! Next up was a 16oz ribeye with mashed potatoes and garlic butter. All I will say is the mashed potatoes were forgotten after the first bite of the steak. Cooked perfectly medium, had a delicious red cabbage puree with cheese bites and two small peppers (best peppers Ive ever had too) to complement the steak. The garlic butter was definitely real butter with fresh garlic and was outstanding. 1933 House of Bourbon is now our number 1 place for steak. Had a huge selection of bourbon to choose from and very reasonable prices. Wanted to try the chocolate bourbon lava cake but had no room left. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable and answered all of our questions, he did a great job!!l
