    Bahr’s Landing has been our celebration place since 2017 when we got engaged. The food is just as good today as it was 8 years ago. Even though it was a bit loud on a Saturday evening and I’m guessing our waiter was newish, still one of our favorite places to dine!

    Lovely Easter setting on the Navasink River. My husband had scallops, and I had a broiled lobster, both were delicious. The service was excellent. I would recommend this resto everyone. My family has been going there since 1980.

They hit dinner out of the park. Fried oysters, 2-New York Strip Steaks, King crab legs, Fried combo platter and Stuffed shrimp. Alex out waiter was amazing and patient. You made Easter a great time.

    Went well. Checked in at 5:30 PM. Had to wait a few minutes for table. I had the sampler basket. My daughter had the fried flouder. Her flounder was mushy as if it was frozen than cooked. It was a little noise since there was a large birthday party of 20 nearby.gave it 4 stars.

    First time visiting this establishment, great food, service and view through window. It was quiet, but it was a rainy Monday in April and very few patrons other than ourselves so I assume it’ll be noisier during peak season.

    Amazing meal and wonderful service. Our server Max was so friendly and helpful and just really made us feel welcome. This was probably our best meal there. From the Oysters Rockefeller and the Caesar salad to start and then on to the Lobster pot pie and the Penne Vodka with Scallops, each item was more delicious than the last. Can’t wait to go back!
