I actually come here often but this visit was a little off. There was only one server and she was overwhelmed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's really a chill bar and the food is always A1.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bartender is always really nice but it took about 45min to get a drink and an hour to pay. read more

Delicious! I had the shrimp platter. It came with lots of large breaded shrimp! My husband had the low country shrimp boil and keeps raving about how good it was! My mom had the burger, which was huge and had great seasoning on it. Service was a little slow but it looked like not many people were working behind the counter. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was clean and neat, very impressed with the cleanliness of the bathrooms![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] you should try it!!!!! read more

We walked in right when it opened and we had to seat ourselves which was fine. [[HIGHLIGHT]]BUT why was it difficult to find a table that was clean and wiped down when you just opened[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we found one that was somewhat decent we still had to ask for debris to be cleaned off.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We only came for oysters bur we added the crab balls. Oyster were heartier than any I have ever seen and I loved that! Most places charge you for juat a few and they are the smallest oysters you have ever seen. My ONLY negative feedback is less cheese which would have made them perfect. There was a mountain of cheese. Way too much. We also had a side salad...well someone in this kirchen is obsessed with cheese because the salad was more like a plate of grated cheese and crotons, then add lettuce as an afterthought lol. Literally the most cheese I have EVER had on a side salad. It was wild. We laughed about that for A FULL.DAY! Crab balls were just okay. Didn't love them and didn't hate them. As bad as this review sounds, and after going to other restaurants in Savannah, I would prob go back for the oysters and ask them to lesson the cheese. But overall I cannot give them more than 2 stars. read more

Uhmmmmmmmm to be completely honest Bahama Bob's really threw me for a loop. The name matches the homely decor and the menu tried to compete but fell short overall to me. They have four pool tables, a juke box and the vibe was really laid back. I tried the charbroiled oysters, peal and eat shrimp, a order of fries and the seafood pasta (minus the fish because who TF puts talapia on their menu or in their pasta?). The seafood pasta was simply their shrimp Alfredo mixed with a little marinara (thus turning the sauce pink) In my humble opinion don't call it a seafood pasta when the crab is literally no where to be found. I dug through it for awhile before I asked my server about it and she said it's blended up in the sauce(??) my mind was blown because even the taste of crab was faint to none. But, I didn't need to add any seasoning because the flavor wasn't bad, just one level and it's simply advertised wrong. Nothing was memorable really but my bartender/server Becky (she was amazing all around the board) I wish I could give her this review because it would've definitely been 5-stars! This was my first experience in Pooler, GA and I won't be rushing to come back. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything was great the food the atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was excellent Please try it out You won't be disappointed read more

I ate here around 3pm. The food was ok. The waiter had too many tables to serve so when it was time go we had to wait. Which sucks.

Stumbled on this place while traveling and thought we were going to get Caribbean food but instead found a very good seafood bar and grill. We shared the Low Country Boil and it was so good that we made it a point to stop overnight here again on our way home so we could go back!! The seasoning was perfect and so much more interesting than just Old Bay. Loved it! Be patient with the staff, they're usually too busy but sweet as can be! read more

Great service. Fast and fresh food. The fried shrimp were perfect. My wings were big and cooked perfectly. Simple place and just good food. read more

I give it three stars only because it's not a very inviting layout inside. They need to some updating and it's pretty tacky inside. BUT, I will add that the service was great. Our waitress was friendly and the food was actually very good. I was surprised based on the appearance inside. The Jambalaya was great and had a nice kick! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Really fun place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Exceptional service! The food is good and there are plenty of options.

Beware.... If you see a sign posted with this message don't waste time, energy or money. This place needs lots of improvement: starting with the booth seating which sinks down like its over 50 yrs old; The server recommended, grilled oysters, very nasty and to charred, crab dip that was barely luke warm as if they zapped it in the microwave and all you could taste was cheese, then the Gumbo soup - pure nasty and taste like water. Our total for 3 items and 2 drinks totaled $64.01 and we didn't even eat but 3 of the 12 oysters, 2 bites of soup and 2 bites of crab dip. The server knew we were unhappy with the quality of the food considering she had to take it off the table and just was like oh well! read more

Bahama Bob's - BEWARE - New American Near Me - Pooler, Georgia

Absolutely the freshest seafood around Pooler the quality and price was excellent. Don't let the bar atmosphere stop you the value for the money is nothing like any chain restaurant . I am a traveler and seafood always on my dinner agenda. They didn't disappoint- going back again for dinner tonight. Excellent food and the owner daughter knows hospitality. Keep up the great work! read more

This place would be spectacular if it wasn't for the bad service. I don't think they are intentionally trying to provide bad service. Our waitress was really nice but she was overwhelmingly busy all night! The table assignment was unorganized and I honestly think she forgot about us. On top of that... the food was just OK. We ordered the extravaganza platter. The shrimp was very good but everything else was just alright. The cocktails were good too. That's the reason for the 2 star rating. Shrimp & drinks... everything else needs work. read more

This was pleasantly surprisingly good! The shrimp and crabs was fresh and the crab chowder was outstanding. Steamed plates had lots of good seasonings and was hot. The Oysters were very good!! read more

Sick of waiting to get served. Sorry there is only one person that can make drinks and take orders. 3 other employees working but 2 of them can only clean off tables.The owner wonders around aimlessly and won't wait on paying customers. Some discord between management and employees- they seem depressed and angry- you can feel it.Tired of the "we are short staffed shit" manage the employee's and stop doing everything yourself! When you receive the bill you have no clue what the prices are and what you're being charged for. Can't you get a register this is 2024! We won't be returning and our friends won't be returning either. read more

Food was good, my husband loved the soup. The waitress was fantastic. We walked in on a Saturday late afternoon and got a quick table, he was able to watch the game on one of their many TVs and we still made our movie with time to spare. read more

Just ate the most delicious crab, shrimp, sausage, corn, potato broil!!! My husband and I shared the low country broil and snow crab platter broil. We are truck drivers and accidentally stumbled into this place last year, and were pleasantly surprised. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Today we were initially apprehensive as the place is not glorious in looks and style, it's truly a hole in the wall type of place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] However, we got the most authentic broil cuisine we've had across the country with the most exceptional service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place has a bar, pool table, eat in type of feel so if that's not your niche don't come here, but if flavor, great service, and a down right homey feel this is your place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Food was amazing! Service was great also! Wife had crab dip and she said it was fantastic, I had the steak and potatoes they were great

Food here was very tasty. Service was so-so. I sat for at least 15 mins before anyone appeared to take my order. I feel maybe they were short of help. It is more of a sports bar/ restaurant. However; the food was tasty and I will visit again next time I am in town. read more

Bahama Bob's - Bob's Seafood Platter - New American Near Me - Pooler, Georgia

No service after 30 minutes playing pool. Tried to get bartender attention, got shut down with a "Wait" and a finger gesture. And... that was all I ever saw of her. Menu looked good, decent prices for seafood. I wonder what it might have tasted like. To give them some leniency, there was only the bartender and one server working the floor. Still though, just trying to let the bartender know you exist and should we order at the bar or wait for table service is NOT asking too much. read more

Walk away!! Don't even go in!! This was our first and last visit to the establishment. I don't know if it is a restaurant or bar. It has tables/booths in the front with a bar at the side and pool tables/dart boards in the back. Our server was a short, plump blonde with a crappy attitude. I asked what did she recommend and she said "oh everything we serve is great". Ummmm...thanks for nothing. She then came to take our order and when my mom hesitated for a second she said " hang on, I"ll be back". She then went and took the order at another table. She went to put in their order (maybe her attitude sucked there too) because before she was done, they left. We ordered and my chicken Alfredo ( I could have made better at home) came out in roughly 10 minutes. My mom got her talapia about 10 minutes later. The fish was hot but the fries were cold and greasy. Once the food was out, our server must have swallowed a gallon of sugar because we became "my loves" every time she came to the table....oh wait....it was going to be tip time soon. Yeah....treat me like crap and be rude and your tip is gonna suck!! read more

The place has went down over the years, staff is not very attentive to customers if you're not eating. You leave smelling like fried food.

Wanted seafood for our Anniversary... This place is #2 on best places for seafood according to TripAdvisor and now we know why. It's was our 1st time here and we didn't regret it. Food was hot, not over cooked, and really delicious. We will be back for sure!!! Cons: menus was dirty and the bathrooms were filthy. read more

We were staying nearby when I read other reviews. So glad I did! We feasted on seafood at vey reasonable prices. It has a dive bar vibe but if you're not looking for a fancy place, it's casual and relaxing. read more

My husband and I came to Savannah for our first time. We needed a weekend getaway bad. We were looking up places to eat for out first supper here. Saw Bahama Bob's listed on Google when searching. Pictured food and the inside made us say sure why not? When we got there it was hopping! The waitress said just go ahead and seat yourself. Sure. I asked for a blue and fruity alcoholic drink and she looked surprised that I didn't say something specific, but she went with it. She gave me a blue Marijuana slushy drink. It was delicious! We both ordered the low country boil. Fantastic! Seasoned just right. Not too little or too much seasoning. The music was 90's through early 2000's pop, hip hop and R&B. I was dancing in my seat. They have pool tables to play pool. We didn't but great option. The bar was long too. I would highly recommend! read more

Nothing beats the in person service but unfortunately I saw 3 or 4 small crabs in the steamed oysters. read more

Food was awful and service was incredibly slow. Had to ask for utensils and to get our check.

Good food , friendly atmosphere , excellent service !it's pub like , pool tables , Dj and very local . Casual clothes . I did not give it 5 stars because the rest room was busted up like a bar room brawl . But it was not dirty:) read more

Passing through on the way home from dropping Kate at summer camp, we found ourselves at this hole-in-the-wall in Pooler, Georgia. With two small kids remaining, I didn't want to wait in line at another outlet mall restaurant and ended up here by default. No line and no wait. Seated quickly by a friendly (I forgot her name) server, we even got to meet "Bahama Bob" as he made his way through the restaurant introducing himself to patrons. Friendly man who quit another business to take a chance at starting a restaurant. Big chance this older gentleman took. Snow crab, a bucket of oysters, several baskets of shrimp, and chicken breast with french fries on our lunch menu. All cooked right and no complaints from the kids. Clean establishment and friendly staff. Plenty of parking and very close to Interstate 95 in Pooler. If you don't want to wait in long lines at an outlet mall restaurant, you may want to check out Bahama Bob's. /s/ William E. Lewis Jr. Vero Beach, Florida read more

The portion was ridiculous for the price. I ordered the two seafood fried special of oysters and shrimp. I received 5 heavily breaded shrimp and 5 oysters. The mixed veggies I ordered had to be sent back because it came out ice cold.. the daiquiri was gritty and full of ice. I have no idea why certain dishes attached to this restaurant looked so plentiful but that was not the case for me.. I cant say I would return for drinks because that wasnt impressive as well. Overall my bill was almost $30 which included a tip. I had to go get a snack later because the meal was not filling. read more

This restaurant is a great for after work when u need to relax and enjoy some wings! The tilapia sandwich is fantastic! read more

Bahama Bob's - I ate the fish asap..it was 2x as big as that bun. I also mooches my friends wings that were fantastic.!!! - New American Near Me - Pooler, Georgia

Always great food at great prices. The staff always has a smile and chats with us when they have time. Everything is clean from the front door to the bathroom. Haven't had a negative visit in any way yet. read more

It's a dive bar first and foremost, once you get that wrapped around your head had fun and enjoy good food , strong drinks and when I went good music. It was karaoke night on a Friday. Dj had the crown really into it. Food - char broiled oysters were the winner of the evening .. very tasty and FRESH! I had the low country boil and my girlfriend had the crab leg platter. We both were very happy with our food. Service - amazing wish I could remember her name but she was very sweet and attentive. Will visit when I'm back in town read more

Wow. I really do not have enough good things to say about this place. I really wish I would have taken pictures because the decor is so beautiful and it has this great beachy vibe. I ordered the Bahama Bobs platter and everything was delicious. The seasoning was perfect. The service was outstanding as well. I really wish I would have gotten my waitress name because she was amazing. Make sure you check out this hidden gem when you're in the area! read more

This was a hidden gem. After spending all day on the usual Savannah tourist riverfront attractions and eating there overpriced oysters and shrimp we ran across this beauty. Melissa and their family owed restaurant offers some of the best seafood hands down. We shared the massive platter called Bahama Bob platter for two. When I say everything was good everything was good! No wait just seat and eat. Will definitely be back when I visit again. read more

LISTEN!!!! I got in here and ordered! I told my husband about this place last time i been was 2014. I told him that "I knew he will get the Po boy sandwich" IF they still had it on the menu if Im not mistaken I did not see!!! Ordered Calamari- Fried a bit hard but SO GOOD, Lemon pepper wings, & Ribeye with cheesy mash, garlic bread and broccoli. YES RIBEYE!!!!! BEST RIBEYE I HAVE HAD SINCE I BEEN IN SAVANNAH FROM MIAMI SINCE 2013. I asked for BOB after trying my steak but he had left home after cooking our plates.. I had 4 patron shots and heinekens with hubby and we were good and FULL!!!!! BOB I DONT KNOW WHAT YOU DOING BUT KEEP IT UP!!!! I had a bad experience maybe a year ago so I came back to give another chance. BEST CHOICE EVER!!!! ALL I CAN SAY IS "BOB HOLD IT DOWN" read more

Bahama Bob's - New American Near Me - Pooler, Georgia

Never going there. Nothing was right. Seafood was over-seasoned by burying it with a seasoning shaker as it comes out of the kitchen. Service was terrible. Prices are above what you would expect but the quality is certainly NOT. I have nothing good to say about the place, and we would never go back. read more

Place used to be really good for dinner, has gone down hill over the years. Not as clean, run down decor and furniture. The atmosphere has changed as well. More of a night club feel than a dinner spot to get some drinks. read more
