The Libation Room is a secret gem! Once you go through the door it's a different world from the larger restaurant. The service, drinks and food was great. The best part is the atmosphere, a nice place to go for a romantic or quaint dinner with friends!

I had known about the Libation Room but assumed it was a place to grab a curated cocktail. I was told that the food was amazing and booked a table. This might be my new go to place for a nice dinner out. The menu was extensive and food was delicious. Steak Tartare, Tuna and Truffle Mushrooms were standouts. The Chocolate Mouse cake was divine at the end of the meal. The menu is rounded out by a nice wine and spirits list. Highly recommended

The restaurant seemed understaffed. I had to ask for additional ice water, silverware and napkins because the servers didn’t notice. I felt the servers were inattentive to our needs.

The food ordered was excellent. One diner however asked for extra sauce with his dish and when that came it had jalapeno peppers which had not been disclosed on the menu or by the server, had to send whole dish back. We had to ask to order drinks, and when delivered the martini was room temperature instead of cold. Every other time I have dined here the service was excellent and so were the drinks.

The four of us enjoyed the atmosphere very much. The service was great. Pumpkin crab Soup too thick and barely warm , crab cakes were delicious. Chicken chili unremarkable . Steak with added shrimp quite good. The menu is interesting so we will go back and try some of the other offerings.

The food and ambiance were amazing… our server seemed a little preoccupied and was not as attentive as I would have hoped. Maybe it was a bad night for her. We were there the night before and everything was perfect. I would definitely recommend this place.
