“TY for accommodating our party of 18 on a Saturday… Your fried calamari was so yummy, the flight of soup was a brilliant idea for someone who’s undecisive to be able to sample 3 different cups, my crab cake was so amazing - I’m drooling just thinking about the jumbo lumps of crab chunks!!! By the way hubby & I noticed the American Psycho decors right away as we’re huge fans of the book & movie. Last but def not least, the service was great even though there were 18 of us with some loud kiddos.“

“Very nice little spot tucked away. They serve pizza and other food. I have not tried much of the food yet. I live in smyrna, so it's a hike. They have a huge bar outside by the water. They have live music and a DJ. I will definitely be going back. They only gripe I have was the female bartender being rude to a friend of mine.... other than that, I like the place i definatly need to try the food and get some pictures

Parking: They have valet parking if you pull up to the front there. The valet guy was cool. There are a few parking lots behind the building just drive past the entrance and they are on the right...“

“Nice place! Felt very homely and welcoming. It's a bit out of the way but a friend took me there to try after he was impressed by it. I had the chipped beef on toast and it hit the spot. I also had a side of scrapple. Most places don't cook scrapple correctly but Libby's did a fine job with it, and that's coming from a guy that lives in scrapple territory! I will say that the potatoes needed salt, but I'd rather have to add salt than deal with having too much salt. The coffee was decent as well.

Oh yeah, talk about affordable! This is how breakfast should be priced!

Kid-friendliness: While I was walking out, two little kids in strollers were smiling and waving bye to us. The staff were having fun with them too. It was adorable so I'd say they're pretty kid friendly.“

“I turned into a windmill. They sat me
next to a door that was constantly being opened to the outside world and it blasted cold air at me.

They also tried to charge me $29.99 for this “lobster” roll (and I use that term loosely). You can’t in good conscience tell me that this coleslaw concoction is more than 5% lobster. It’s potato chips and coleslaw on a tiny hot dog bread.

The burgers are solid.“
