    Bar Harbor never disappoints. I enjoy the ambiance. Lots of windows, yet cozy like a supper club. The menu is fairly limited, with a focus on steaks. Last night I had a delicious soup of the day and wedge salad, with grilled shrimp. It was perfect. We ate at the bar, so can't fully opine on service. Thanks to the bartender for a well crafted martini and attentive, but not intrusive service.

    We really enjoyed our time at the restaurant and the food was amazing. I appreciated that we could watch the game but still converse as not everyone in our party are football people.

    Char is our go to restaurant when entertaining or want a great meal! The food is always delicious, beautifully presented and the service is outstanding! I believe our server was Jessica last night and with all the people that dine there, she actually remembered us and the cocktail my husband had ordered from a previous dinner there! Very impressive! She is great, personable and the young lady coming around and freshening up waters was also very nice. We will continue to drive to you from the other end of the lake! Char is our favorite! Thank you for hiring great people!
