    Consistently outstanding! The Library is our go-to restaurant for a special occasion, memorable meal. We would highly recommend the salmon Oscar, exceptionally well-prepared. The staff is highly professional, friendly and highly attentive. Bravo!

    So sad that it was not good. This was our 6th visit. My lobster tail came out so over cooked. They replaced it with another lobster and it was absolutely raw. I lost my appetite. My salad vinaigrette was not the best romaine and dressing really pungent. Bread is unremarkable My husband’s steak was good. For the price and expectation of excellence it was a failure. Unlikely to return.

    Visited with 3 of my close girlfriends for my 50th birthday. Reservation was for 8pm but due to travel and inclement weather (rain), 2 of them ran late. Hostess was very patient and attentive!! From arrival, entire staff was great. Only issue - 3 of 4 main course entrees had entirely TOO MUCH LEMON- shrimp scampi x2 and Chicken Chardonnay. I had salmon topped with crab; it was delicious as well as my Caesar salad. Nonetheless, I’d give it another try. Overall, still glad I choose this as the restaurant to celebrate my 50th birthday!!

    It was my birthday an our anniversary for one I ordered an 8 ounce house of choice fillet medium, rare, came out well done. They rushed me out 4 ounce almost the way I liked it too fatty to eat. Cocktails a little short, good bottle of wine and of course I had a lovely night with my wife. When I go back again? No! I have been there numerous times in the past in the old place and in this place, but not going back again, not for the price.

    The Library was a positive classic experience. The food and the service was more than exceptional. Robert was the perfect waiter. Our dinner experience was nostalgic, and for that it was very special. Thank you!
