Food was excellent and delicious but the restaurant needs more staff to get the food out on time

Went on a Saturday night attracted by the live music, to find a singer that starts 30 minutes late because she needs to chitchat with everyone before the show, with an average voice that needs to be covered by very LOUD background sound music. Not sure why the manager doesn’t address the volume of the sound, this is mostly a 50+ years old bar/restaurant on an upscale area.

No parking, never found it, if I had 2 more hands I'd give em 4 thumbs down.

Very small place and quaint place. They do not always have jazz music. Inside a hotel, so as the night progresses it can become overrun with hotel guests and get packed. Good drinks and service is as good as can be expected.

Parking is Valet only and they no longer validate it at the bar. It's 10 dollars. Food was good and the atmosphere was beautiful! The tables were candlelit. I felt a little underdressed. I was surprised that the waitress didn't card me though when I ordered wine because I had only turned 21 a few months earlier. The music was excellent, but stopped earlier than I expected.

I love coming to the Library! The bartender Michael always takes such great care! He makes the best drinks! Wonderful environment, great music, great food, and the BEST service! Next time you go to the Library… ask for Michael!

We visited on a Saturday afternoon at 5pm. Our table was supposed to be reserved by the sales team and wasn’t. Server was not attentive at all. Cheese plate took 40 minutes to arrive. The food and drinks were fine, but poor service overshadowed the experience.
