Drawing inspiration from members clubs worldwide. Bowie offers guests a curated experience with a thoughtfully crafted cocktail list, an Asian-inspired menu all within an elegant setting for unforgettable evenings.
Bowie is described as stylish and intimate with a chic vibe, a moody atmosphere and a live DJ that sets a lively energy, making it a popular spot for girls nights or celebrations. Service stands out in many reviews for being warm, attentive, and professional, with staff offering thoughtful wine and cocktail recommendations and handling special occasions with care, though consistency varies across visits. The interior and decor get frequent praise, while some guests feel the concept aims for exclusivity and can come across as pretentious or overdone, with policies like a photo and video ban and a dress code that may be unevenly enforced. Cocktails tend to be highlighted as strong or creative, yet a few drinks fall flat or feel overpriced, and some dishes or portions are described as hit or miss. Occasional issues include slow service, missed steps in the service flow, overcharging, and inconsistent pacing that can mar the experience, along with reports of rude or impersonal treatment from staff or a lack of sympathetic handling in tricky moments. Overall Bowie is seen as a much loved destination with standout ambiance, good food and drink, and moments of exceptional service, but the guest experience can be uneven and value is variable depending on the night and the team on shift.
The pretentious staff seem more interested in talking to each other than serving customers. Took forever to get service & order a second drink then rushed to make us pay... There's definitely better options in the area.
Le décor était très beau avec une ambiance feutrée. Je n'ai pris que des entrées & des verres & de ce que j'ai pu goûter c'était bon. Le point négatif est vraiment l'accueil & le service aux clients, l'hôtesse qui nous a accueilli semblait hautaine. Il n'y avait personne dans le restaurant encore & ce fut long avant qu'elle nous adresse la parole & sans même l'esquisse d'un sourire. Elle nous faisait plus sentir comme si nous étions une nuisance que des clients. J'ai trouvé l'accueil non professionnelle, cependant le service une fois à la table par les serveurs était correct. Peut-être le délai entre les services était moins efficace plus la soirée avançait par contre. Âge 25 ans & plus mais la clientèle semblait plus jeune du coup au moment où j'y étais.
I legit caught on fire in the restaurant due to a lit candle. & was not given any sort of compensation whatsoever. Food was good but that doesn't make up for the lack of professionalism :(
Still my favourite place I've been in regards to restaurants / night-life, a year after I visited. I tell anyone that I can about Bowie, & am itching to go back. Ambiance, food, drink, experience... All 5 stars. For an elevated but fun night out, this is your spot.
Food is surprisingly good for a more of a bar vibe establishment.
My favourites were Japanese Taco, wagyu dumplings & Oysters.
Atmosphere is fun & on wknd nights, the restaurant turns into a very fun bar with dancing. 4 stars because some dishes were not great & drink prices are on the high side.
J ai célébré mon anniversaire hier la bas
Le service était vraiment nul plus que 30 minutes pour ramener la nourriture
45 min de retard pour ramener mon gâteau.
Je vais plus retourner là bas

Drinks were delicious. Service was amazing, we became friends with our waitress. She made our experience so fun & memorable. The candy bowl we ordered was fresh & went perfectly with our drinks. Was so fun & gorgeous atmosphere
Love Bowies vibe & amazing food!! I've been there a bunch of times & was such a good experience, until last night. I came with a big group of people so we split up into cars, they got there before us & when we arrived I was very rudely spoken to by the tall gay man bouncer. He gave me a stupid excuse that they were full while my friends inside told me there was a lot of room. Then he proceeds to let in 10 people but wouldn't let me & my friend in. We shouldn't have been treated so terribly for doing nothing & in the future I will think twice before coming here. Hire a nicer bouncer to represent your place.
