It's a very small restaurant..so a reservation is really important. Elijah was our waiter and he was wonderful.

We had a great time at Bowdies! We sat upstairs and our server Lian (?) was so attentive and polite. Ww ordered the scallops for an appetizer which was soooo very good. We shared the Cowboy Ribeye and that meal was so very tasty! Our evening was fun and we enjoyed our meal! 10/10!

My waitress made a wonderful recommendation for a mocktail. She was so friendly and made me feel special. She was able to recommend some other places in Saugatuck to check out when I visit again. The food was fantastic and I'm so glad I made a stop here. I will definitely be back.

As usual, our visit to Bowdies was perfect! Liana is awesome and very attentive. She makes you feel like you're the only table in the restaurant. The steak was a little over done but still very delicious! Prices are high for sure but worth it. Will be back again and again!

Food is v good, but akin to what you'd expect from a chophouse, nothing really extraordinary other than the prices $$$$$Parking: We were there in the winter, but leave ample time in the summer crowds.

What a pleasant surprise! Everything was top rate at Bowdies. The food was outstanding, as was the service from our server Paige. Cocktails were great too. We can't wait to return to Saugatuck and we will definitely dine again at Bowdies.
I'm so glad we stumbled upon this lovely little restaurant. The service is unmatched. From management to servers to bussers, you can tell each member of the staff cares about your experience. The food is amazing; the filet melted in our mouths. Absolutely the best meal we had while. Highly recommend it!

One of our favorite restaurants for special times. Great steaks and sides. Small and intimate with an inviting ambiance. Seasonal outside seating. Three options for inside seating includes the porch, main area with bar, and upstairs seating for a more quiet setting. Service is always friendly, attentive and professional. Bowdies is on our top five list located in southwest Michigan. Highly recommended.

Michael was the perfect server! Always a smile, prompt service and made sure we were enjoying the delicious food, yummy wine and having an amazing time! His recommendations were "spot on"!
Disappointing visit. Steak preparation has been modified from before and the taste is not the same. Wine was served in glass that was dirty and then replaced with another glass with water marks.

This was the first time that we sat upstairs, and it was delightful. It was cozy, warm, and quiet. The service was fast and attentive. The food was delicious as usual. Exactly as we expected.

I'm a steak aficionado who has the best steak possible everywhere I possibly can around the country and world, and this was the best steak I've ever had. Not only that, but the staff is exceptional on a completely different level. It's like a Michelin experience with more heartfelt personability. Exceptional!

It's been quite a while since we've dined at Bowdies but it's always been a favorite. The salads and sides were amazing but we felt our filets weren't quite as great as we remembered. Jordan was awesome and is a real asset to your team. We also interacted with Leigh (sp?) and she also enhanced our evening. We will definitely come back and just hope that the chef was perhaps having a bit of an off night.
