   Excellent experience, excellent restaurant. We visited there after my daughter graduated from Loyola law school for a celebratory dinner. Everything was perfect, food was excellent. Drinks were outstanding and the service was impeccable. This restaurant truly is a shining star, will return.

   We had a great time at The Bower last night. This was a specific trip, as we went for Lobster Roll Night. The service was EXCELLENT, and the food was delicious. The back bar is gorgeous with its dark walls and lush greenery hanging from the ceiling. I love the inside/outside feel, and appreciate that they’re able to leave the back doors open and bring the outside in. I’ll definitely return. As tasty as the lobster rolls were, I’d love to try some of the other dishes on the menu. Also, they make a mean Aperol spritz.

   We went on a Monday night and ordered some cocktails and food— cocktails and service was great, but the food was not good. We had the yellowtail crudo and it was so bad we couldn’t eat it and had to send it back, the lobster Cobb salad and whipped feta app was okay, but forgettable. Two stars for the service and drinks.

   I felt it was a bit expensive for portion sizes on most things. The pork belly came with 2 pieces of pork. The chicken parm was a great value though. The spaghetti was slightly underdone. Waitress was fantastic though.

   Food was tasty but I’m surprised a nice looking restaurant can have such a limited menu. There were no green vegetables on the menu nor were you allowed to order any sides. The strict rules and thought of being non flexible ruined the experience. Even though the food was tasty I left hungry and the pasta and potatoes were only seen as fillers not as a main course.
