    Carrot  cake  to go... !!! Added the ice cream to a share plate of raw cookies
    Todd Michael F.

    Highly encouraged from Chef John at Next door/Gather, we ventured off to liberty to celebrate my sister-in-law's birthday. It was a long week, but we celebrated with amazing food. Cheered to another year and celebrated at Liberty. The menu is in a traditional tapas shareable for two stretchable for four. The flavors are intense and overwhelming good. There is plenty to order and enjoy so get it. Enjoy a nice wine. Never lacked anything down to a full glass of water at all times. Staff was amazing!

    Wonderful experience. We sat at the chef's table. The chefs were friendly and engaging and the servers were attentive. Food was delicious; we ordered too much, but that's a good problem to have here. Casual vibe but upscale quality food. We will be back!

    Gnocchi

    Five stars in every way from start to finish. Super friendly, attentive, helpful staff. Love the open kitchen and interacting with the chefs. Everything is so fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. Fun menu combinations and great (slower) pace better plates allowing you to savor what you just had and build excitement for the next. Fine cruise without the fine dining pretentiousness. We made our next reservation before we left.

    I loved, loved, loved this place. This place is assuming and tucked away and I had no idea what to think but I read the reviews and thought I'd give it a try. The space is small and reservations is highly recommended. The menu changes monthly but I heard they keep some staples. The food was delicious, complex, fun, and the presentation was top notch. We talked to the chef during our meal and you can tell that there was a lot of thought put into the menu and thought into the execution of the food. Plates are small but full of flavor and have enough food. I recommend this place over and over to all food lovers. It was priced reasonable for me but it is on the higher end.

    Oooooook! This cute, tiny den of deliciousness isn't one to miss. Reservations are a must. And be prepared for excellent service, a delightful greeting from the servers and chefs and an experience that I would expect of a restaurant in Fort Myers. We ordered 5 dishes to share between three people and that was more than enough but 2-3 per person is recommended. The gnocchi and lamb ragu are a must and did not disappoint! I will be trying my hand at a lamb ragu in the near future. The medium rare chocolate chip Cookie was just ok but the Cinnamon Toast Crunch ice cream was to die for! Like serious! But hurry in soon the menu changes often!

    it was a joyous reunion to dine at @eat_liberty for the first time in almost a YEAR last week. Given pregnancy diet restrictions aka no raw meat, runny eggs, etc. I wanted to wait until after Parker arrived so I could fully eat my heart out at Liberty although time has passed, the exceptional quality and flavors stayed true throughout each course...I was most excited to reunite with the Beef Tartare with fancy mustard and warm pita points but the other selections...Shrimp Toast, Parisian Gnochhi, and Honey Roasted Duck were all fantastic. ‍Each plate is great to share with a pal (that way you can taste MORE of the offerings) but one or two could be a meal for a solo diner. go check out this place if you haven't! Small eatery with BIG personality.

    Service is top tier. Everyone works as a a team and make sure guests have everything they need. The space is very intimate , like European boutique style . Very cool note, you order and the staff creates an experience with the food and it comes out in a specific order. I enjoy small details like that. The food needs its own paragraph. We had the gnocchi with mushrooms and pistachios parsnip cream sauce . The gnocchi was a crisp heavenly pillow with the creamiest inside, mushrooms were perfectly sautéed and I didn't leave a drop of the parsnip cream sauce with pesto . The 50 layer potato was crispy and you had the choice to drag it through a delicate cream sauce and cold sweet tomato leek salad. Next dish was the black garlic beef gouchujang tacos , the beef was crispy, yet so juicy and flavorful and the homemade tortilla and pickled veggies were a perfect touch. The last dish we ate was the honey age duck . The duck was perfectly seasoned, crispy and juicy! The little mushroom potato hash on the side was a perfect pairing! Make reservations way in advance and don't miss out. Some of the best food and service I've had in southwest florida.

    If you are lucky enough to find yourself in Fort Myers and enjoy a true dining "experience" do yourself a favor and book kitchen seats @Liberty! The menu is creative and unique and the service we received from the chef and especially Katie and Raiza was second to none! Looking forward to our next visit next time we are in town!

    Goat cheese agnolotti with lamb ragu

    We ate at Liberty for our anniversary dinner this week -- it was our first time at the restaurant & we were so impressed! All of the food was incredible and the staff was amazing, so energetic, upbeat, and knowledgeable about everything on the menu. It was so cool to sit in front of the chefs & engage with them, watch them cook, and chat about the food. You could tell that everyone at the restaurant enjoyed their experience as well. For 2 people we ordered 6 menu items & 1 dessert and it was the perfect amount of food for us. Everything we saw the chefs make looked phenomenal & smelled amazing! Each dish we ate was delicious but our favorites were the brussel sprouts, goat cheese lamb ragu pasta and the black garlic tacos. All of the flavors, sauces, and "toppings" were spot on and went so perfectly together. The cookies were incredible as well - so soft, gooey, and melty! The restaurant is a small place & tucked away but makes for such an intimate experience. We had the best night with the best food and will definitely be back!

    I found a hidden gem in a place you would not expect. I never knew this was here in this old outdated strip mall. No real sign except a logo on the door. When you come in you find one of the smallest restaurants I have been in. Basically an open kitchen with a few tables and bar seating. All items are small plates meant to share. We got five between me and my wife and they were all great and unique. My favorites were the gnocchi and shrimp curry. They weren't both so rich and full of flavor. Give this a try but make reservations. People showed up and were turned away because it books up fast

    Pork belly and seared tuna
    Ben S.

    Great, small atmosphere. Fantastic service. Great to have a seat at the bar so we could watch the chefs prepare each plate and talk to them about what they were doing. Every plate was awesome. The gnocchi was probably my favorite and some of the best I've had (had it all over Italy too). Idk why everyone doesn't make it with ricotta instead of potato - so much lighter. The most unique was maybe the pork belly and seared tuna. The hot/cold dynamic on that plate was really good.

    Great time at Liberty celebrating. At first glance the restaurant gives you diner vibes but once your entrees start coming out, you know you've hit a fine dining establishment . I loved everything from the customized seating placement (we made a reservation ahead of time), to the rotating paper menu and of course the food. Between two people we ordered 6 items plus dessert. Our favorites were the bone marrow tacos and beef tartare. Our server was very attentive and we loved sitting at the counter to watch the chefs prepare our meals. It was a great experience but also not pretentious. Can't wait to come back

    Best food we've had in SW Florida! Made me feel like I was back in Chicago, it's been hard to find that caliber of food down here. The servers were both so kind and wonderful! We will be back!

The staff, from the hostesses to the waiters, are always kind, professional, and do a great job. I truly have no complaints about the restaurant itself. I'm writing this review because of a very strange experience we had that I feel compelled to share. We had a reservation for my mom's birthday. When we arrived, our table wasn't quite ready because the previous guests were still sitting there after paying their bill. This was absolutely not the restaurant's fault, and we had no issue waiting while the table was being cleared. Another couple came in and was in the same situation, also waiting. There was one open booth, and the host let us know it was reserved by request. Totally fine, no one had an issue with that. Then a third couple arrived, and that booth was assigned to them. While I was simply talking to my mom, the woman from that couple suddenly got in my face and yelled, "We live here!!!" and then walked off to the table. She came off very angry and mean, which completely caught me off guard, as well as the other couple waiting; they were also very taken back. It was such bizarre behavior. The situation had nothing to do with tourists, snowbirds, or who "lives here." We also live here year-round, had a reservation, and weren't upset or making faces, we were just waiting patiently. The entire interaction was confusing and unnecessary. To be clear, this review has nothing to do with the restaurant, which we love and will continue to return to. This is more of a message to that woman, in the off chance she reads this: that was one of the strangest and most uncomfortable interactions I've ever had in a restaurant, and it made absolutely no sense. Maybe don't do that next time.
