Library Restaurant

My husband and I have been to The Library Restaurant previously. We decided to dine there again for Mother’s Day 2025. We made a reservation for lunch and we got a phone call the day before letting us know they upgraded us and put us in the main dining room in front of the fireplace, super awesome! When we arrived, we were seated right away and then promptly greeted by our server, Leah K. She was kind, funny, polite and made suggestions every step of the way. We first ordered drinks from the bar, a dirty martini for me and a margarita for the hubby. We then ordered steak tartar from the starter menu. I have had it before at other fine steak houses, but I have to say, this one was not great. It was chewy, lots of fat and not much flavor at all. Next time, we will pass on the appetizer. The main meal: I ordered the 8oz filet medium rare and my husband ordered the gentlemen’s cut rare. Both steaks were done to perfection. We also ordered a side to share, potatoes au gratin, which were amazing. I ordered another drink, but it took so long, I was going to cancel. Our fabulous server, Leah K, said it will be made, but at no charge to us. Very kind of her to rectify the issue. We ordered dessert to go, the chocolate layered cake, chocolate mousse (GF) for my celiac daughter who had to work :( and a slice of carrot cake for me. All desserts were good, flavorful. The carrot cake was really fresh when I had a bite of it before bed, I was so full from lunch, I didn’t get to enjoy it on Mother’s Day. Overall a great meal and wonderful service. I am sure we will be back again.

Incredible food and service. Our waitress was knowledgeable about what could be made gluten free. Will be back!
