| - Liberty Market is a highly experimental restaurant that has a long way to go. My wife and I tried Liberty Market last December as a dinner and a show deal paired with the theatre next door. The rain was pouring and as we dashed in the warmth of exposed rafters and good ambience reassured us we had made the right choice. That was where the fun ended. For such a fancy looking place, the stand in line ordering was a little bit of a letdown. We ordered a margherita pizza, unaware that the pizzas are barely a snack for a single person. The pizza was good, though a little scorched, but the wood fired oven gave it a very nice artisinal touch. We filled our drink cups at the oversized soda fountain and sat at a table that afforded a picture window view of Downtown Gilbert, and the feeling was cozy until the hardwood bench began to cramp my backside. The food didn't take long to arrive, and the wait staff was friendly and helpful, if a little unnecessary. Apparently their only function is to serve the food and refill drinks, from the self serve fountain. The real mystery came after our meal when we made our way past a very clean, completely empty kitchen. It seemed extraneous, but must see more use during breakfast hours. Then, arriving at the unisex washroom with highly decorated closet toilets providing little barrier between myself, my wife, and a fairly loud and smelly gentleman next to me, I was forced to flee screaming into the night. I go back for the pizza, but only when my brain needs a little twisting.
