Restaurants near Calvin College And Seminary Historical Marker

A favorite place to meet friends. Celebrated a good friend’s birthday here!

We really liked the layout and our waiter, Kamden, was very helpful and attentive! The only downside was my wife's steak was overcooked, and it took a bit for the kitchen to get the food out. My scallops were excellent and the presentation of the food was great. I had an old fashioned, very good, and my wife had an excellent wine! We'll be back.

Very cute a fun restaurant. Food was good and service was was perfect. Everything on the menu is pretty pricey, but you get what you pay for.

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.

We had a perfect experience on Valentine’s Day! Our reservation was at 5:00 pm and we were seated promptly. Our server was polite and quick. Our steaks were cooked perfectly and our kids enjoyed their meals. The s’more dessert was top notch! We bought a bottle of wine to take home for the evening. Thank you for another great experience at this location!
