    Table was ready and the service was excellent from start to finish. The best part, however, was the quality of the food! My old fashioned and the Cabernet was quite good too.

    Once again enjoyed my food service! Best place fir Lobster tail and Filet! Definitely worth the wait. Just wished Open Table would have more flexibility with making online reservations.

    The service was impeccable, food was delicious, and drinks were well-made. - crab cake: it's deconstructed so it is full of crab and well seasoned. - filet: well seasoned and perfectly cooked. - truffle fries - salty, and perfect. I didn't even need the sauce. We celebrated our anniversary and they made it so special.

    Wonderful first time over at Bowdie's (Lansing) for my 34rd Birthday. Birthdays and Anniversaries come with free dessert so that was a nice touch. Right from the host table we were welcomed in, greeted with a "Happy Birthday", even came early, but still shown to our table, then upgraded to a more intimate booth. Gorgeous, little restaurant. They have cute little oil lamps on all the tables and that was a nice touch, plus to the romantic oldies /classics like Sinatra playing in the background. It was everything I could've asked for. The cooks cooked everything including our steaks to perfection! Everything was delicious, and portion sixes were great! Overall, I was happy to have found this gem in Lansing instead of leaving town for a nice sit down dinner for special occasions, so we were pleased to have found this local joint. Matthias is the man! He took very good care of us and had a great attitude, seemed to enjoy his job and we enjoyed him. The ambiance is nice, we arrived at 8:15pm so it was a tad busy and noisy but after 8:30 the crowd died down and it was quaint and noise level perfect to where we could enjoy the dinner tunes being played. Would recommend!

    The food was outstanding. From the duck ravioli to the shrimp bisque, bone in filet and Ahi Tuna, with sides of mushrooms and the lobster Mac and cheese, Bowdies killed it! Great job! Just remember you are paying for this awesome food! It isn’t free! For special occasions, go out of your way to visit. You won’t be disappointed!

    Celebrated our wedding anniversary—overall service and food was impeccable once again. One of our favorite steak houses in the US and by far, the best in Michigan.
