We had a lovely time at Libby’s. We ordered pimento cheese fritters, fried chicken, Willy’s burger, steak and egg sandwich and an oatmeal cream pie. The food was beyond all expectations. It was cooked perfectly, juicy, and flavorful! Libby’s features a bourbon menu but we didn’t partake. The service was great and the bathrooms were clean and stylish.

My first time going to Libby’s was absolutely amazing. We had 6pm reservations, had no wait, and a lovely outdoor seat. We were recommended a smooth bourbon that complimented well with the extraordinary food. Adding this to the fast and friendly service, I cannot recommend this place more. I definitely will be returning.

So good. We’re a family of three, and got three different dishes. Every single thing that came to the table was delicious. We also got the pimento cheese fritters as an appetizer, and that was some of the best stuff we’ve eaten on this trip.

Great spot! The food was fantastic! Went here for a dinner and the quality of food was amazing! Green bean and slaw were outrageously good.

Really great dinner experience. We got fried chicken , Atlantic Salmon and Charlie Brown all of them are really flavorful. The best part is the dessert, they are really tasty and not too sweet, loved them !

The decor is nice, but tbh it is a bit overpriced when the food is good not very good like the vibe I have been given. We ordered cod which was served for the first day. It was good but not that great for the price especially it is a bit too salty. I didn’t have the heart to tell our server especially when she was really excited to present us with this menu. The fried chicken was okay, but if you had Eagles on OTR you might not like this chicken as much. Mac and cheese that came with the chicken was absolutely cold and no taste. City Barbecue has better collard greens. Two people with 1 appetizer and 2 entrees with no drink spent over $80. I just felt like it was a trendy place. Absolutely not a place where I would wait in line to have food.
