    First time diners—4 of us. Promptly seated upon arrival. Service was friendly and professional. She crab starter was superb. Entrees enjoyed by all. Had the salmon off the regular menu which was a generous sized serving but fairly dry. Haddock and steak specials were enjoyed but thought the steak overpriced. Desserts were tasty.

    We highly recommend The Library!! We started with the baked feta appetizer, which was delicious. For our main courses, we had the halibut with lump crab and a perfectly cooked filet, along with a lobster tail to share. The filet melted in your mouth and could be cut with a table knife it was so tender! To finish off the meal, we indulged in a rich peanut butter cheesecake for dessert. Our waiter was outstanding—attentive and knowledgeable, answering all of our questions with ease. The intimate, cozy atmosphere of the restaurant enhanced the overall experience. Just be prepared to spend a little extra, but it’s definitely worth it!

    This restaurant is beyond outstanding. It's small and very sedate. It's not cheap. But the food - some dishes are prepared at your table - is amazing. The service was incredibly attentive as well; the waiters double as chefs at your table. Eating here is a memorable experience. It's probably most appropriate as a "special occasion" dinner. Make sure there's enough of a balance on your credit card!

    We celebrated our 35 th anniversary at the Library. Steak was out of this world.delicious. Husband’s halibut was a bit dry and was compensated for it. Service was first class.
