Came here for dinner and would not recommend. They offer gluten free pasta on the menu, but was told the only sauce we could have was the red sauce, as every other sauce had flour as a thickener. Also tried to get a Caesar salad, but was told we could not have a dressing, as that contained flour as well. Ended up getting a steak which was fine, and at least the server was knowledgeable about what contained gluten, but overall this place is not very gluten free friendly.

My dad and I (both gluten intolerant) came here for brunch, and I'm glad we did! The waitress was knowledgeable about what was safe for us to eat and asked the chef when she wasn't sure about something. They were also able to accomodate my dairy allergy. We got the pulled pork sandwiches on gluten free buns with a house salad and blackened fries. Also coffee. Everything was delicious, and one day later I feel fine.

Excellent Bourbon Salmon, potatoes & spinach. Listed on the menu as GF. Waitstaff was very knowledgeable & answered all questions & made recommendations including a chocolate dessert. We will return!

Our server was very knowledgeable about gf items available. We came for Thanksgiving dinner and our server had the chef prepare my meal gf by substituting some of the choices on the regular turkey meal. The turkey and vegetable choices were delicious!

Please do not eat here especially if you have an allergy. I have one, ordered a GF item and they brought out my steak covered in sauce and hidden underneath was a piece of bread. If I had ate that I would have been in the hospital. It was irresponsible - don't eat there! I am sadden, mad and frustrated!

Small but certified GF menu and the staff was very helpful. Enjoyed a salmon dinner that was delicious and Libby's is a lovely place. My family enjoyed more elaborate food and the band, as well.

Libby's is a great neighborhood place. They offer excellent choices for paleo style food and gluten free options. I usually order their grilled fish or meat with vegetables. Everything is very good. The hamburgers are great I just substitute the bread for lettuce.
