A Revamped Bourbon Steak Lounge Reopens Tonight with a New Head Bartender

Bourbon Steak reopens tonight with a new look and a new lead bartender.

Renovations to the space include new floors, artwork, bar stools and booth seating, as well as some additional designer couches. There's now seating for 60 people.

Leading the bar will be new head bartender Torrence Swain, a veteran of Farmers Fishers Bakers. His new drink menu will debut in September and have a seasonal bent. He'll also mix up some drinks with personal connections, like an apple Old Fashioned inspired by his grandmother's desserts. Swain replaces longtime bartender Duane Sylvestre, who is taking a new position with Cointreau.
