“I my opinion, this is the best restaurant in Bar Harbor. The lobster bisque is exceptional! You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Was here 3 years ago and back again yesterday! Perfect Maine!“

“It was our first day in Bar Harbor and we chose Galyn’s for dinner. It was delicious. We sat on their front porch overlooking the harbor. The food was great and our waitress was so nice; very pleasant. We had the stuffed crab mushrooms, haddock sandwiches and blueberry crisp-a la mode for dessert. Yummy.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Maine Must-Try! The lobster roll was perfection — sweet, tender chunks of fresh-caught lobster piled high on a buttery, lightly toasted bun. The seasoning was simple and spot-on, letting the natural flavor of the lobster shine through, while just enough creamy dressing tied it all together without overpowering. The lobster nachos were an unexpected delight — warm, crisp tortilla chips loaded with generous pieces of lobster, melted cheese, and a drizzle of tangy sauce that balanced richness with a hint of brightness. Every bite had that perfect mix of crunch, creaminess, and fresh-from-the-sea flavor. Whether you’re a Maine local or just visiting, these dishes are the kind of food memories you’ll be talking about long after you’ve left.“

“We’ve been coming to this location for the past several years to celebrate our wedding anniversary and every single time we are in awe of how magical it is💕 Between the amazing staff who put thought that it’s our wedding anniversary, the romantic atmosphere, and the view, so beautiful.

“Best haddock sandwich in Bar Harbor! All the food is so fresh. Love the patio seating area. It’s been great having them open all year round. 10/10 recommend“

“The best part about dining at The Terrace Grill is the view across the harbor toward Bar Island. It’s stunning. Next is the service. Our server, Kim, did an excellent job balancing checking on us and giving us space. She paid special attention to details with our order and answered our questions about the harbor and the community. Finally, the food was very good and well presented. My wife had the Blueberry salad with Salmon which was outstanding. I had the fish tacos with grilled haddock and they were quite tasty. The sauce and salsa had excellent flavor. The fish was a little dry. The prices were quite reasonable and I would definitely go back.“
