Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Libby's in Sarasota is a neighborhood favorite known for "excellent food and service." Guests rave about their "creative dishes" and the "outstanding" Brussels sprouts appetizer. Although the indoor noise level can be high, the outdoor seating offers a more relaxed ambiance. Popular menu items include "honey bourbon salmon" and "key lime pie."

    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.
