About This Spot
Stepping into Libby’s in Sarasota feels like entering a warmly lit haven where thoughtful hospitality and genuine care shape every moment. The pace is unhurried, inviting visitors to savor not just their meal but the relaxed, yet refined vibe that nestles comfortably between classic American charm and a touch of eclectic elegance. Throughout the dining room, artful details and a subtle interplay of textures catch the eye, offering quiet conversation starters that enhance the overall sense of place.
Here, the menu reads more like a collection of stories than a simple list of options—each dish crafted with an evident appreciation for balanced flavors and fresh ingredients. Whether it’s the playful crunch of avocado eggrolls or the tender, hearty comfort of the rotisserie turkey dinner, each plate carries a measure of care from kitchen to table. Brunch is particularly celebrated here, offering a gentle blend of traditional favorites like crab cakes and eggs benedict alongside imaginative touches, all served with warm attentiveness that becomes part of the experience itself.
The atmosphere is shaped as much by the people as the food—attentive servers who seem genuinely invested in ensuring your visit feels personal and seamless, the soft murmur of fellow diners appreciating the moment, and the steady rhythm of a place that balances casual ease with a polished spirit. It’s the sort of spot where shared stories over bottomless mimosas feel effortless, where family gatherings and quiet meals alike find their place with equal comfort.
For those seeking a slice of Sarasota where the art of American dining meets authentic connection, Libby’s offers a quietly inviting sanctuary. Here, the joy of discovery lives not only in savoring well-crafted plates but also in the welcoming embrace that makes you want to return—not just for the food, but for the experience itself.

This dining experience is one of the best that I have ever had! We went to Libby's to enjoy brunch. The menu options are wonderful and the food is delicious. Are server (Jessica) also helped us make good choices. The atmosphere is nice and inviting while giving your eyes many great eclectic items to view and enjoy. The biggest thing for our visit is the top-notch service! We had a little issue with our brunch burger and our server (Jessica) apologized and immediately jumped into action. Before long the manager (Michael) came to our table to also address the issue. It was not just the apology and returning with a whole new meal - it was the fact that they came back to us with accommodations to ensure that we knew that our time as guests in their restaurant is valued. Ultimately, we were amazed at how everyone connected with us during our meal before the issue and after. Plus, we got some good tips on things to enjoy, visit, and do while we are in the area. To better put this into perspective - think about a place where you received resort style service like the Ritz-Carlton or that caliber and that's what you receive at Libby's. *** So, not only will we return when we come back to the area but we have already been telling our family and friends that they also need to go enjoy a meal at Libby's!

Had a good dinner here. You can tell chef and/or owner really care about what they're serving. We started with the meatballs, super tender and flavorful. Had the pumpkin and crab soup. I loved it. Well balanced flavors and good texture with the sprinkled shaved almonds. My partner had the rack of ribs and I had the sea bass. At this point I wasn't that hungry so I couldn't fully appreciate the dish. Seabass was cooked perfectly and I enjoyed the sides it came with. The ribs were amazing.

Libby’s is currently one of my favorite restaurants in the Sarasota area I’ve tried so far. The food is amazing. The avocado egg rolls are delicious. They are by far the best I’ve had yet. I also had the Chicken Milanese for my entree, and I was blown away. Besides the food being amazing, I also love the inside of the restaurant itself. It’s very upscale and classy. Would highly recommend Libby’s if you’re in the area.

Myra is an exceptional server and everything was brought to us in a very timely manner and the food was excellent. The almost 5 star rating for this restaurant is deserved. If you like dessert, try the bread pudding. My wife couldn’t finish, but she certainly was compelled by flavor to do her best

First time here with my husband, recommended by a friend. Overall good experience, I had the chicken Milanese and my husband had the steak. Good portion enough to have dessert and a coffee at the end of dinner. Waitress and host were nice and great attitude.

Solid eatery! I enjoyed my brunch here. Endless mimosas were a GREAT deal and delish. I had the smoked salmon avocado toast and it was great. We also tried their keylime pie which was really smooth and a great treat to wrap those meal up! Oh - and your plates were so pretty.
