    It is a great location for a casual gathering with family and friends. Food as your mother might serve at Sunday dinner. Service was very attentive to all our needs.

    Library dining I warm and quite intimate McKenzie our server took care of all diners here. Her timing on gliding from table to table is stupendous. The food expeditor took all the pressure off her. Bread bowl clam chowder a creamy filled with clams. Served hot. A garden salad was more than sufficient to serve two of us. Seafood casserole and Southwest Chicken entrees perfectly prepared. A team of personnel from greeting to leaving is well done.

    Our first time at BT. was an enjoyable evening. Our server DeSantis, I hope I got that right, my apologies was very attentive and gave us plenty of time, which was good. My Sweetheart had the steak tips which were really good with .ashed potatoes and broccoli, and I got Ma's Meatloaf that was good ,4 , 1/2" slices with mashed and broccoli as well. I was hoping for a little more meat but otherwise it was good. We got chicken nachos for app which was good and filling d. Plenty of chicken, salsa, sour cream, and got extra guacamole too. For dessert we chose the chocolate chipped banana bread with ice cream and whipped cream, chocolate drizzle and warmed, that was really good and hearty. Our server was very friendly , personable , and a pleasure to get to know a little. A good visit for our first time at this establishment. Thank you.

    I had the seafood casserole. One of the best I ever had. Good sized sea scallops and shrimp. The haddock had body and was not just little pieces falling apart. The breadcrumbs were light and did not overwhelm the dish. It came with mash potatoes and seasonal vegetables. The vegetables were nicely grilled just right and tasty. Nice atmosphere and service.
