    Nicholas was very attentive. He knew the menu well and described drinks and specials. We had mixed drinks, wine, chicken sandwich asnwell as some appetizers. The avocado eggrolls are always the best. Unfortunately the brussel.sprouts our dining companions ordered were burnt and she couldn't eat them. They removed the charge from her bill.

    My eggs Benedict were not cooked. It was almost like eating raw eggs. I would have sent them back to the kitchen, but our waitress was nowhere to be found.

    We had our weekly dinner here Thursday night. Mitch did an outstanding job as our server. It was so nice to see Ericka as she came by to see us. The entire staff is just wonderful! Every dish we had was great! HH cocktails are amazing! We love Libby’s.
