    Besides having the best steaks in Grand Rapids, the service at Bowdies is always top notch. Sometimes good service can be more impactful than the food and Bowdies goes above and beyond. In January 2025 the parking structure close by was taken down, so give yourself a couple extra minutes to find parking.

    The food and service was nice. We would return again. It was loud due to a unhappy little toddler, but that wasn't the fault of the restaurant. You couldn't hear the conversation between us at our table, which was disappointing, because of the little child...
