Going out for dinner tonight, tomorrow, this weekend?

It's becoming tougher to go to your favorite restaurant, get a table and have a fine dinner without having to wait for that table. Everybody else had the same idea.

So, the answer is make a reservation. But, that is easier said than done because so many places don't take reservations. And, the ones that do are busy. That's good for the restaurant but hard on the customer.

Researching the most popular/booked restaurants in Grand Rapids, it is imperative that you plan ahead and make that reservation as early as possible, days if you can.

This surprised me a bit. Family and friends can always find their southern style chicken, and southern style food. Add a very decent wine list and fine cocktails and you have a very satisfying time.

#4. Bowdie's Chophouse - Saugatuck

Prime is the optimal word at Bowdie's. 28-day dry aged prime meat, wine and cocktails make this a prime steakhouse in West Michigan.

#5. Bowdie's Chophouse - East Grand Rapids

What else can I say that I didn't say about Bowdie's in Saugatuck. I didn't mention the seafood that they offer, always the best, and the delicious appetizers to begin your experience with, make it a must for your next reservation.

On of my favorite spots in an historic building, 11 Ionia, downtown. Scholar has a fine wine list, fabulous cocktails, served from a over 100-year old bar. The menu, somewhat eclectic, always has some very interesting and delicious offerings. This is another must place to dine.
