Our 2nd visit!Happy to be back, the ability to pair remarkable wine with a delicious meal and excellent service is top notch. Vaughn was our server who stayed on top of drink levels, was knowledgeable about specials and an added joy to our evening. Had wagyu flatbread as a starter. TASTY I love balsamic flavor profile with it!Filet was ordered for dinner with Brussels sprouts, as well as, prime rib sliders with au jus and crawfish Mac and cheese. Fantastic evening all around! Interior is expertly done, service, arrival of food perfectly timed.Looking forward to our next visit.

Upscale option in the AP. This place is close to me and it's taken me a while to find a second to dress up and unwind but I finally made it in. The place is small but quaint and the service was wonderful. Make a reservation because as mentioned this place can't sit too many people at once. The crawfish Mac was the key star here. It was cheesy and delicious. The red fish was cooked perfectly and my hubs said the smoked old fashion was number two out of the many he has tried. This is a great place for special events or a girls night out.

Called last minute hoping to get a reservation. The guy who answered was completely accommodating. He said they had a small lounge section and mentioned that he could reserve it for us. When we got there she sat us. It was a small table in the back with a very short table. If your there for only drinks and to socialize it's perfect. However we were planning to eat a lot. We saw a few seats at the bar and asked if we could move and they were absolutely okay with it. When we sat at the bar, the bartender was wonderful. Drinks :The gatsby 6/10. Idk why but I didn't love the smell which made it hard to sip a lot. Lemon drop = one of the best I've ever had. It was smooth and refreshing and not overpowering Chocolate covered strawberry = I could take it or leave it. Almost taste like too much cream? And it looks weird when things settle Moscow mule 7/10. Taste like a good refreshing Moscow mule which I adore. Food:Meatballs 8.5/10 absolutely delicious and moist with a nice texture on the outside Egg rolls or spring rolls 9/10 spicy but absolutely amazing would order again. Steak flat bread 3/10 I'm spoiled with bin 77 steak flatbread and this one just can't compare. Too much sauce on it you can't even taste the steak. Burrata salad 8/10 refreshing and a wonderful thing to split if you have someone to do so. Crawfish mac n cheese 5/10 To be fair I'm biased I'm never a fan of crawfish mac n cheese I'm more of a lobster Mac n cheese fan. Idk what it is about crawfish with the Mac n cheese. But it never pairs well for me. Black truffle fries 9.5/10 Perfectly crisp and the best size. Comes with a garlic ketchup and a horseradish. Which were amazing choices. Crawfish and asparagus arancini 8.4/10 Amazing texture. Crips on the outside moist on the inside. Flavor is absolutely there. They are like small fried balls of goodness. It's worth the wait and I will be back

My wife and I went here for a Friday night date night and loved it. We had two drinks, the Catcher in the Rye and Pride and Prejudice. Both were good and strong. The food was great. We had the shishito peppers/Brussels sprouts which were probably our favorite, but the crawfish/asparagus arancine and the wagyu flatbread were really good as well. We'll definitely be back!

The restaurant is fairly new and the atmosphere and decor are fantastic. It has a darkish interior which I rather prefer for a peaceful meal. A more adult type of establishment it was not noisy at all. Everything ordered was delicious and well prepared. Nothing on the menu disappointed us. The service was lousy. Our waiter was inattentive and forgot about us for long lapse while serving all the tables around us. Definitely feel let down for the price we paid and the quality of everything else. Since we were from out of town, I would hope that the service improves. Would definitely try again when visiting Gonzales.

Eaten here 4 times and honestly don't think I will ever get sick of it. Sat at the bar and in the dining area. This place is great for a girls night or date night. Love the concept of the drinks having names of writers and poets. All the ones we tried were good, but I do not remember which ones we had. For the appetizers have had the tuna tart, lamb empanadas, meatballs, wagu flat bread, crab cakes, house bread, and shishito peppers. The crab cakes were probably my favorite but all of them were very good. Entrees have tried the gnocchi, filet, scallops, and the fish. You can not go wrong with any of those choices. Ending with the tiramisu or the crème brûlée is the way to go. Will continue to go back.

Let me share with you my raving review of Library Wine & Provisions, a much-needed and highly popular fine dining establishment in the Gonzales area. I've had the pleasure of dining here countless times since its opening, and it continues to exceed my expectations and leave me beyond satisfied.First and foremost, the staff at Library Wine & Provisions is simply amazing. They are attentive, always on point, and seem to anticipate your needs before you even realize them. Their level of service is truly exceptional.Now, let's talk about the food. Every dish is a masterpiece, with savory and rich flavors that leave you thoroughly satisfied. The portion sizes strike a perfect balance, leaving you pleasantly full without feeling overwhelmed. If you have a sweet tooth, I highly recommend indulging in the Cream Brulée Cheesecake or trying the weekly special, which never fails to delight.For wine enthusiasts, Library Wine & Provisions is a true treasure trove. With over 200 different wine options, you'll find something to suit your tastes, whether you're seeking something unique, an everyday favorite, or simply want to explore new varieties. Personally, I lean towards the cocktails, which are expertly crafted and always hit the spot.As you savor your delectable meal and enjoy your chosen libation, take a moment to appreciate the small details that pay homage to the restaurant's name. The portraits of authors on the wall, the dark and moody ambiance, the subtle sounds of Frank Sinatra playing in the background, and the beautiful maroon velvet and leather seating all contribute to a truly immersive experience. One of my favorite features is the small and comfortable lounge area with its own fireplace--a cozy haven for relaxation.Whether you reside in the area, including Baton Rouge, or you're just passing through, I highly recommend setting aside time to visit Library Wine & Provisions. It's destined to become a local hotspot for years to come, and there's nothing quite like supporting a locally-owned business that actively contributes to the community it serves.

Small place, so reserve ahead of time. Wonderful, stout, cocktails. Food is all good, but some are just standouts - empanadas, Wagyu meatballs, sliders, and any of their specials will blow you away!

This is my 3rd time here & I was satisfied every time. Not many nice restaurants can stay consistent with their food & service. Keep up the good work since I've been to too many restaurants that were one and done & for me to be here 3 times is saying something :)
