It was our first time here. Their restaurant week menu was so unique to everyone else, we had to try it out. It was very crowded when we walked in at both the bar and the tables. First thing we noticed was the creative menus that fit the library theme. Viewing the menu, we already knew we would come back with the variety of items on the menu and the prices are very reasonable. Our food was delicious and we enjoyed the atmosphere. We are not fans of going to South Sude anymore, but we definitely want to come back to the Library.

I got the chicken Caesar wrap and sweet potato fries. I recommend getting the cinnamon to dip the fries in. The wrap was good. There was a good amount of chicken which I like. I went for an event so I didn't dine downstairs. The upstairs needs some tables and seating

I was in Pittsburgh from LA for the Kings Pens game. It was a matinee game. After watching the Kings win, we came here for a nightcap. The choice was this place or the bar next door that allows smoking. I am not against other people smoking, but the last time I was in a bar like that, I didn't realize how woozy I felt until I left. That meant we chose the Library. We sat at the bar, had two drinks and called it a night. I ordered Redemption High rye bourbon. It was fabulous. I even found it at Total Wine when I got back to LA. I am glad I chose the Library.

The Library hosted my group for dinner. There was a nice variety on the menu that wasn't too expensive. Everyone enjoyed their meals (burgers, bang bang shrimp, salmon and Brussels sprouts), and the cocktails were good. Our server was nice, and she split the bill for us. The only problem was the noise level--it was hard to have a conversation over the music.

First, the decor is everything. Wall sconces, shelves of books, and a cozy vibe. Unfortunately, the service did not live up to the decor. I went with a group of 5. When we arrived, there was a sign to seat yourself. The only table available was still dirty and hadn't been cleared. We did sit down, but had to ask someone to clean the table for us. It seemed like they were short staffed. However, the drinks and food were great! The menu theming is excellent--the food menu is organized like a table of contents and all of the cocktails had bookish names. The sweet potato fries and sweet potato gnocchi were delicious. Overall, I would come back, but maybe on a weeknight instead of the weekend.

Met some friends for brunch here on a Sunday. Place was packed to the gills but we lucked out and got a table right by the door. Service was reasonable but not particularly fast. Prices were pretty affordable. I ordered the brunch smash burger and it was delicious. Would absolutely come back again.

We came for Sunday brunch, and this place was packed! It was quite lively with a room full of 20 year olds. It made this place feel like it was the place to be. On the other hand, it was so loud that it was hard to have a conversation. The restaurant looked understaffed. It took probably 15min before we could place our orders, and another 20min before the food came. I love the interior design of the place and the whole library theme carried out on the menus. My breakfast bowl had a layer of perfectly cooked scrambled eggs on the bottom, topped with sausage, bacon, potatoes and cheese. It was so yummy, I would come back just for this dish. Service was friendly and helpful. It just took a little long to get our food.

Happy Hour, Burgers, and Trivia all on a Wednesday Night? What more could you ask for?! We arrived to The Library just in time to snag seats at the bar. The service was prompt and friendly. The house rose was really good and only $5 during HH. The burgers were half off and we ordered the Smash and BBQ. Both hit the mark for flavors and quality. The chips served were really fresh. The sweet potato fry upgrade was worth it too. The trivia was an added bonus. The Great Gatsby cocktail had a tasty hibsicus flavor and I would order it again. The Library has a variety of great specials throughout the week. I plan to explore more of them!

First time having brunch at The Library on Carson. We love their cocktails, so we wanted to try some food. We couldn't order off of the full lunch menu during brunch, but they had lots of great options. The avocado toast could use some more flavor, but the bread was light and fluffy. The wings were especially flavorful. Portions were great. Next time, we definitely want to try their lunch and their bottomless mimosa special!

My friend and I had a great time here during happy hour on a recent Wednesday which also happens to be 1/2 priced burger day! We sat at a high top on the bar side and the bartender was quick to wait on us and take our food and drink orders. Cocktails are $2 off during HH and I went with the "A court of Thorns and Roses" drink and my friend ordered the "Annabel Lee". We bought thought they were beautifully presented and tasted just as good. My friend had a side salad and I ordered the creamy tomato soup as an appetizer. The soup was a little peppery and definitely creamy. Perfect to warm you up on a cool fall day! We both ordered the classic smashburger with fries for +1. The burger came out much larger than I expected and was juicy and flavorful, but not really that messy! The fries were fresh and just needed a little bit of salt. The head chef came out to check on us, which we appreciated. The restaurant is currently decorated for halloween in both the bar section and the dining area. I loved all the thoughtful touches. This is a fantastic option for HH and I'll definitely be back.

Had such a nice time at the Library on Carson to catch up with a friend. The library vibes made the ambiance so cozy and intimate. The food and drinks were wonderful. Cierra was our server and took great care of us during our visit. Emily stopped over at our table as well during our visit- the staff was so friendly and helpful. We started with 2 glasses of Prosecco that were a special that evening ($4 each), shrimp cocktail and oysters. Everything was SO good and so fresh. After our starters, we had truffle fries with parmesan, Brussel sprouts, garlic, grilled cheese bites and the honey pig pie. Their menu had a variety of options that anyone can find something good. They have daily specials every night: Monday: Wing Night - $0.75 Cent Wings Tuesday: $1 Oysters $1 Shrimp $4 Prosecco Wednesday: Half-Off Burgers Thursday: College Night $3 Wells/Claws $10 Select Pizza Saturday/Sunday: Brunch $15 Bottomless Mimosa They have happy hour specials and are available on Uber eats and takeout. There is a perfect space upstairs for private events and also have pool and darts! I would highly recommend the library on Carson to all! Will definitely be back again. Thanks for the wonderful night.

Went here on wing night (75¢ each) and it was so good!! Our waitress was great and I love the vibe here - great date spot! Wings were really good and it was such a good deal.

Officially a regular here again. Under new ownership, I've explored the menu over the past year and really enjoy the Wednesday half off smash burgers and Monday 65 cent wings with unique flavors such as elote (almost a street corn crema) and Smokey blue that is great for dipping fries. Bartenders are attentive and friendly. Owner is always seeking feedback. Really hope this place is doing well!
