   Amazingly, Sarasota does not have any good Chinese food and while Libby’s is not Chinese food their Orange chicken is amazing and is my every other week Chinese fill. Service is friendly, sitting outside on a great night is the best.

   We have dined with you numerous times. We are not at the point of bringing new people to your restaurant to experience your food. It was delicious as usual. My only comments are the atmosphere was a little noisy. We had one guest who is very hard of hearing and one guest who is 93 years old. They were difficult to communicate with at the table. I don't know if we could have asked for a quieter area to dine? Maybe I can ask? next time? I will say Mike was a good server but he did reach across in front of me to place my dining guest her meal. Not sure why - maybe the plate was hot and he had to get it out of his hands fast? Other plates and drinks were placed properly and he did say he spent the whole day there so he may have been tired also. Don't get me wrong, he was an excellent server and we tipped him well too but I wanted to mention it so maybe he takes notice? I also forgot to use the generous $5.00 email coupon you sent to me so we all the more reason we will be back. Thanks. Luann

   The Libby’s staff was absolutely lovely and kind. Food was delicious as everyone cleaned their plates. We will definitely be back when in the area.

   We liked it fine but the food wasn't as good as we would expect from such a popular place- or I should it was very mixed. Some of the things we got were really good, some were so-so.

   The food was less than average, and I was so disappointed, as it had such great reviews. The food was bland, and the cocktails were very tasteless. Our server was nice. We will not be back.
