    This was our first time enjoying an evening at The Library. The menu offered many appealing options, including the Steak au Poivre that was prepared table side for another table smelled absolutely amazing. The food was extremely good. My husband started with the onion soup that had a rich flavor that was quite appealing and notably not over salted like others we've tried. He then had the halibut special which I tasted and independently verified that it was delicious. The chef's use of herbs, thoughtfully balanced in my opinion, made the dish. The fish was cooked properly and the whole dish came together very nicely. I started with the escargot that was also nicely prepared producing a tender, and again, not overly salted dish. Unfortunately due to a wheat allergy, I could not partake of the french roll that accompanied it but I could smell it and I made my mouth water. I then had the lamb chops that were prepared perfectly. The accompanying roast carrot and potato were very complimentary to the chops. We shared Cherries Jubilee, prepared table side to finish the meal. This lighter option was appreciated. Other notes: I was surprised to find so many California wine selections vs. French selections. We were able to find a very enjoyable Chateauneuf du Pape that didn't break the bank. The cost of the whole experience is a consideration as it is not cheap but we found the end product, including professional staff and atmosphere completely worth it.

    Overall, an 11/10 experience. Our server was knowledgable, helpful, and entertaining. My husband and I both agree that the food was the best we've ever eaten. The beef wellington was just divine and the ambiance was fantastic. Can get a bit pricy so watch out for add ons etc. if you are trying to stick to a certain budget. All things considered, we are grateful for a truly great experience and would recommend this place to anyone!

    The steak poivre was superb. The escargot needed some salt, as did the potato side, which was beautifully presented but lacked seasoning and was too starchy. Overall, however, it was a great meal, and we'd return.
