Another wonderful evening at Libby’s with another couple. Tyler was our server, he was friendly and attentive. Our group had the chicken carbonara, Krabby patty sandwich, shrimp and scallops dinner and chicken Milanese. We enjoy all our meals. Only suggestion is to pre-split the wedge salad. We’ve ordered it split before and the kitchen pre-split it. It was terribly messy trying to do that ourselves. Matt the manager stopped by and that is always a nice touch. It was kind of loud tonight, in spite of not being full. The wooden chairs without a cushion are quite hard, but bearable. Libby’s is our local favorite.

Thanks for the review, Lori! We're thrilled to hear that you and your couple had another wonderful evening at Libby's. It's great to know that you enjoyed your entrees and that you find our meals enjoyable. We appreciate your suggestion about the wedge salad and your kind words about our staff. We're sorry to hear that the noise level was a bit high, if it is weather permitting our cover patio is always an option, many people say it tends be less noisy out there! We're glad a member from our management team had time to stop by, that's always a nice touch. We hope to serve you again soon!

The food is consistently delicious with many dishes to you’ll find yourself eating again and again. Management is excellent…the dining experience flows smoothly from the front to the back of the restaurant. New dishes recently added to the menu keeps Libby’s fresh and a mainstay for a good meal.
