Galyn's - Bar Harbor

Great place to stop for lunch, drinks or both! The Lord is all kind. Our waitress was attentive and personal. Everything we tasted! The fresh, warm bread and olive oil is a brilliant starter. The salad and the house made dressing is also a good choice. The Harbor Burger bar was perfectly cooked. Port wine was a perfect conclusion! If there is no room outside to sit, I recommend up close to the window.

We have eaten here today after we were in downtown and it was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Bar Harbor. Our service was also exceptional with the holiday weekend and our food was top notch. We had the Maine Sampler collection and I had the Heilbutt special. Our entrees were perfection like the cocktails and the French wine pairing.

Had an excellent dinner at Galyn's. Brian was our server. He was very attentive and personable. Meal was excellent. Had the Maine combination which included 2 small lobster tails with melted butter, 2 scallops with a sauce (pesto-type) that was amazing. And one of the best crab cakes I have ever had with a sauce that was also very very good. Shrimp cocktail for an appetizer. Shrimp were so large and tender. Dessert was the blueberry/apple crisp with vanilla ice cream. A fantastic meal and excellent service

Best lobster I?ve ever had! Staff was kind and knowledgeable, and answered all of our questions about lobster and the area. We came here after Geddy?s was sort of a bust, but Galyn?s did not disappoint. And all things considered, it was probably the cheapest lobster dinner I?ve ever had too. We were lucky enough to get a table on the patio which was absolutely lovely. Very nice view of the harbor and park with lots of natural light. The lobster was cooked perfectly and easy to remove from the shell. We were told this was a female. The rice and broccolini were also delicious.

We felt this place was fine, but definitely over rated here on Google. The lobster bisque was excellent, as was the service and nice view. However, the linguine was overcooked with watery sauce, and the lobster roll didn't have the right ratio of meat to bread. Definitely felt these were not worth the hefty price tag. But the bisque was good enough to come just for a light meal.
