    Our waiter, Elijah, was amazing! We have been to Bowdies several times over the years and each time it’s just as great as the first. The steaks are always cooked to perfection, and the truffle fries are next level. We will be back, as always. Merry Christmas.

    Excellent food and service right before the holidays. Highly recommend as one of the best restaurants in Saugatuck. My partner and I shared the wedge salad, 10 oz fillet, half portion au gratin potatoes, and the broccolini sides as the portions are very large. Everything came out timed very well with great taste consistently. Highly recommend.
