   Food is great, super fresh and vibrant! The ambiance is great, but it's a great place to relax and catch up with friends. Recommend ordering everything at once and have plates come out as they're finished.

   Great location marred by untrained servers unfamiliar with the menu and food items that took nearly an hour to arrive. Hot tip, people come to LBD to talk with each other so turn down the music so that can happen.

   Everything on the menu (food and drinks) are delicious and well balanced. There are so many options to choose from to please everyone. Ambience is wonderful. Love the ceviche and salmon poke tacos. Happy hour is fantastic. Have been here numerous times, constantly recommend it, and will continue to return!

   Very slow service, took 30 minutes to get a beer. Then had to flag down waiter to place order for food. Finally we had to leave after 80 minutes of being there and all food had not arrived yet. Also they forgot to place my wife’s food order so we both had to leave hungry. Also the bill came incorrect and had to go ask them to correct it. It’s unfortunate because we had a great experience in December but the service has really been declining. I hope they are just short handed and aren’t intentionally tasking one waiter with the entire patio for drinks and food.

   Food was good. Went for a date night. the cute lanterns weren’t lit so it was super dark. The heat lamp behind us went out two mins after we sat down, we asked to turn it on and they said if it shut off it means that it ran out of gas…. We ordered espresso martinis and apparently they don’t have an espresso machine? So kind of confused why it was on the menu. Food was good but a lot of hiccups in the service.

   My overall experience wasn’t great. This was my first time visiting LBD and doubt I will be back. In my opinion, the food and drinks were average, nothing to rave about. The service was really slow, even though the outdoor patio was half full. Multiple items were wrong with my order, wrong drinks were brought out, food never came to the table, etc. we were running late to a show so didn’t even bother to mention it to the waiter. We just wanted to pay the bill and leave, paying was even a challenge as we couldn’t find anyone who could give us our bill. So much potential for this spot, too bad it’s mismanaged.

    Server was amazing!!!! She added value to the whole experience. Food & drink prices were slightly on the higher end for the taste & portion size. I would definitely recommend lights be added in certain areas of the venue. At our particular seat it was so dark we all had to pull out our cellphone flashlights to see the menu & the server even had to pull out her cell phone flashlight after she asked to check our id’s. But otherwise good experience we all had a great time!!
