    The food, the staff and the customer service at the library was top shelf It was a little bit loud, but that’s to be expected given the entire restaurant was full I was a little concerned at first with the volume of people, but the team at the library pulled it off without a hitch ! Thank you

    Never been before thought we’d give it a try. Don’t think the reservation was really necessary but the dining area was very clean and welcoming. The server, Lisa, was a super sweet and attentive. Helped make recommendations and substitutions as requested. The food was great. Spinach salad was a nice taste of summer with berries and goat cheese. I had the steak which was cooked as requested. The veggies were were also tender crisp and not covered in oil or butter. Definitely recommend this spot. Lisa was a true delight as a server and we had a great time with her.
