Libby’s is not close to us, but it was worth the drive to Sarasota. We had outstanding dishes at Libby’s Neighborhood Brasserie. The crispy brussel sprouts with balsamic glaze are special. My wife had their Tuna Tataki appetizer as a main and I had their chef special sea bass on a bed of spinach and mashed potatoes. Both were outstanding. Libby’s has joined our favorites list.

Very nice lunch while sitting outside. I was very disappointed that the 2 lollipop crab cakes were discontinued. I used to order them every time. They were wonderful on top of the sweet corn. George
