We had an awesome experience on New Years Eve at Libby's in Lakewood Ranch. There are several vital components to having an outstanding evening at this new Bistro. First ask for Roman to be your Server. Roman is the epitome of superior customer service. He is attentive, well mannered, and knows the menu explicitly. I was extremely impressed with Roman. Not a question he could not address about a menu or wine selection item or recommendation. Next take a look around and you will take a second glance and possibly notice Mark Wahlberg aka Tommy the Assistant Manager. Once again with a fabulous smile to greet the Guests and anything you need or have a question about, simply ask "Mark". Finally Sandra Bullock is in the House as General Manager (her staff knows her as Randi). Randi came over to our table to ask how we enjoyed our dining experience. Randi is a true professional. She stopped at the table and took the time to have a conversation about Libby's. We spoke and she listened - a distinction of a great Manager. A huge thank you to The Chef and staff. Although we did not meet the cooking staff, the food was fabulous. We dined on an order of meatballs (incredible), the Brisket burger cooked perfectly, and the Holiday La La Menu of Halibut, with bok choy and puree of roasted corn which was done masterfully. I have enjoyed seafood from coast to coast and the sear on this halibut was perfection. We asked for bread and received the star of the dining experience, the Yucatan Biscuits served with an avocado type of butter. OMG! These little pillows of flourless delight were delicious. So delicious that we made sure the table next to us ordered a basket. We placed an order for the Chocolate Decadence Cake to go home. Why? If a restaurant is able to make the little flourless biscuits taste like pillows of heaven can you imagine the flourless cake? The cake arrived home and was devoured by both of us. The chocolate cake is like a chocolate fudge brownie with all the sides. There are no words to describe the taste of a true indulgence. A huge thank to all that served us: hostesses, bus individuals, runners, Roman our Server, Chef and staff. I smell the aroma of the Yucatan Biscuits calling my name. Tomorrow may not be soon enough to dine again at Libby's.
