As soon as I walked in, I looked at my girlfriend in awe. Bowdies is absolutely beautiful. The way its decorated makes it feel almost home-like with comfortable energy, and the whole place smelt amazing. The service was fantastic, and the cook came to ask how everything was, he was a really cool guy. Everybody in there was so nice, and they played really good music, i loved the vibe. THE FOOD… The food was so good. The stake melted in my mouth, the lobster mac had an amazing creamy essence to it, and there sauces are delicious. The only thing im mad about when i think back to going, is not getting more food. Bowdies Chophouse in lansing is definitely a place worth going too, I would recommend it to anyone.

Great choice. Bowdies or Capital is always a debate in Lansing but Capital edged them out in this case. Meting our son’s new girlfriend for the first time so it was a semi special event. Waiters gave us enough space to talk without constant intrusion and lessened the nerves all around. Enough menu choices for the girlfriend to not have to get the most expensive steak. Son got his 60 pound ribeye so he was thrilled. Apparently grad students are like hummingbirds consuming their weight in calories daily. My wife loved the perfectly prepared filet and the espresso martini’s and I savored my one glass of the house Cabernet (designated driver). Overall great food, exemplary service, great atmosphere and though expensive, was still a value for the experience.

Excellent service and food. The bolognese and tiramisu are incredible. Excellent wine choices. The wine tasting room is an excellent way to try a few things before committing to a glass with your meal.

I had the ginger salmon, and it was very good. We also ordered some oysters as an appetizer and they were small and just okay. Was disappointed as we were there a few years ago and they were fantastic,don’t know what they changed but I won’t have them again. Service was great, our waitress was timely and friendly.

The chicken sandwich was like no other chicken sandwich I've ever had. The combination of a classic chicken sandwich with an Asian twist was amazing. Best chicken sandwich I've ever had!
