Restaurants near Portland First Congregational Church

Loved our service staff and was nicely blown away at the level of engagement that the management staff showed its patrons on Christmas Day. Even the GM helped out with clearing tables and assisting us patrons. All worked as a team to make our Christmas Day meal exceptional experience

Took a friend on our annual Christmas Eve dinner. We had a good time. A little loud at first but fine after some people cleared out. Dinner was delicious except for the potatoes that were tasteless, and the drinks, appetizers, and dessert were perfection. They were out of quite a few things but I think they were busier than they expected so that's probably why. We would both go here again.

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.

Absolutely a great experience. Starting with the free valet service; moving on to the bar for a glass of wine before dinner. The dinner, what a menu; plenty to choose from. We started with appetizers, then the server took our order. Just the pace I love. Finishing dinner, after dinner drinks and shared dessert. And to end the wonderful evening, the valet had our car WAITING!! BEST yearly Christmas dinner with lifelong friends. Thank you, thank you.

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.
