Lovely little gem - great food and service ?

Sunday dinner was a terrific experience-well-paced, quiet, and in the lovely surroundings this space has been known for for many years. Just go!

Nice food and ambiance but giving 4 starts since the service is slow. I had a reservation but still took us close to 30 min to get seated. The mimosas are made with real juice, the menu is interesting (I ordered cacio e Pepe eggs) and bread is delish.

What a great dining experience today at Bowood. The food is so inspired and the atmosphere makes it all taste even better. I love breakfast food that is beyond ordinary. Great service and teamwork. I’m obsessed with the pancakes. The egg toast is so satisfying. Don’t hesitate to go and make your palate happy!!

This is a GOOD restaurant in St. Louis. I enjoyed our meal tonight.The setting is casual and beautiful, you can dress up if you like but you won’t be intimidated if you don’t.I like their weekly change prix fixe menu, I think it means they use seasonal ingredients and the chef is creative & playful.They cook EVERY ingredient to the perfect doneness. I like the sauce they created for every dish, just right to make the dish interesting but not overpower the main ingredients. The fish was fantastic to me, normally Restaurants use filets but they choose to present it with whole fish; it was well seasoned and tender. This is the best trout I have in St. Louis.The desserts are good but I felt a bit heavy.I hope this restaurant can hold up this quality after its expansion this summer. ? please.

I went here for breakfast and there was a pretty decent crowd. This is a really lovely calming space. Big windows... fresh flowers... in the same building as Bowoods nursery.I had the fried tofu sandwich which was pretty great. A nice peppermint tea.

Brunch was very good and quite filling. The seasonal coffee cake was delicious and the Benedict with the veggie patty was quite good as well. I appreciated the attentive service and the ability to make customizations for menu items. I would absolutely recommend for brunch!

Recommend eggs Benedict, egg toast, pancake, burger, egg sandwich, cocktails. Everything was delicious.

Nice atmosphere and friendly staffs! The waiter convinced me to order chilli fried tofu sandwich. Not a big fan of vegetarian food but I have to admit that sandwich was good. Definitely gonna come back and try out the meat/egg dishes ?

Food and service were both amazing. My only feedback is the price in relation to portion size. I ordered avocado toast (pictured) and just the toast with no sides was $13. The avocado on the toast was minimal. My partner ordered an egg dish which was also minimal, but flavored well. I added a poptart (also yummy) but was still hungry when I left.A couple additional pros:-Beautiful restaurant w great lighting-Many vegetarian options
