Fantastic sushi. Great service. Still love legends
Cook needs instructions on the difference between medium and well done. Ordered 1 well done and 2 medium received all well done. I know it is tough but come on how long are going to put up with don't make a fuss
Stopped in for a little lunch. Ordered their hamburger… fresh chopped meat cooked to perfection (M-R) on a beautifully toasted brioche bun with LTO ! Crispy French fries were wonderful. Best burger I’ve had in years! Thank you
We have experienced Legends under both the prior ownership and many times under the new ownership. In the beginning the new owner was keeping everything the same as the prior owner but slowly things have changed including the addition of a sushi bar and menu. The dining room was reconfigured to include a sushi bar, new tables and lighting. The lighting is horrible. The lights are similar to small floodlights aimed at the guests sitting at the table glaring into our eyes…very much light interrogation lamps. We asked our waitress is the lights could be dimmed and she supposedly ask the manager but nothing happened. Next was the sushi. We have eaten the sushi many times before at Legends, in fact as recent as a couple of weeks ago, and it was always a nice size and good. Something happened in my last visit…the sushi rolls became much smaller than they were. Very disappointing and we told our waitress of this as well. The original Sushi Chef Michael, who was excellent, has left Legends and there is a new Sushi Chef plus there is a new manager running Legends. The dining room now has a bar food menu with 4 entrees no longer are they offering the large dinner menu of the past. Legends is NO longer my go to place for sushi…not after they served us a downsized sushi roll which had less sushi and more rice. If Legends continues to downsize their sushi rolls maybe they should get out of the sushi business for good. Legends needs to do something about the lighting too.
Great food service & amazing Dirty martinis!!!
Legends was my favorite restaurant. I always brought visitors there.They have changed the Salmon BLT which I always order. The chiabatta roll is now a bready roll. The salmon has been cut in half. I am so very disappointed.

Was a good dinner last night. I had the vegetable curry…that was VERY good, my husband had the chicken sandwich ( not Great but not bad). To start we had the calamari …VERY good, and the baked clams…not bad but not VERY good. All in all it was a good dinner. The ideas with all the sushi was good…and the vegetable curry was GREAT.
Wheelchair accessibility: Parking is Not Great.but we got lucky with a spot right in front.

Brief overview: the overall experience as a large group was decent, food was fairly priced and staff was friendly but there was some rough edges in staff service.
The rest of this will be more in-depth review.
There was plenty of parking on the road from both sides as well as a gravel parking lot across the street.
The menu was mostly seafood however there was burgers steak and Chicken on the menu. We went as a large group seating was good there was plenty of space.
The atmosphere in the restaurant was nice with some subtle music playing. Once we got situated time between ordering entrees and the food coming out was good.
I would say that overall speed of food service was great. In our large group they set out entree plates and of the amount of plates we got 2 of them were not clean so as a point of criticism I would say check that the recently cleaned plates & silverware are actually clean before bringing them out.
Of the entrees we ordered I would definitely recommend the calamari it was good & one plate is enough to serve a group of four maybe five but if your group is larger than that I would recommend 2 plates.
Everyone seemed to enjoy their meals to a moderate level, though one member had their order mistaken entirely and had been given something else. I personally ordered the panko chicken and it was not good it may have just been me but it tasted like it was marinated in butter and it smelled weird. The seafood was good though from what I could tell and the group enjoyed the sushi and clams
Portion sizes for appetizers and main meals compared to the prices seemed more than fair.
Dessert was a bit different the carrot cake was very good and the portion was generous but the ice cream portion was really lacking, $9 for essentially one scoop of ice cream felt pretty underwhelming. I think adding a second scoop and potentially giving the option for a topping like whipped cream or a chocolate drizzle of some kind could make it more appropriate for the price.
Additionally two of the orders for dessert were totally forgotten, they apologized & brought it out after the fact and took it off the bill which was nice.
At one point the server said they were the only one on wait staff that shift, I get they were feeling bad about mistaking multiple of our orders but at the same time the restaurant should really look at having enough people on schedule and a patrons service shouldn't be negatively impacted by improper scheduling of staff
I would say that for a small group of 4 or less people looking for a casual lunch this could be nice, but that if you are a group of 5+ people looking for more it might be best to look at other options.
Overall it was a nice atmosphere the food was good and the staff was friendly but giving dirty plates and forgetting orders really needs to be sorted.
One other minor thing I would say is it was nice that there was mochi on the menu but I think it would be really cool if you could expand on the flavors or even have mochi with ice cream in the desert section it feels like it would fit.
I think I would come back to the restaurant but only with a smaller group of people for casual lunch but if I wanted food to meet up with friends or family for a more important occasion I would likely evaluate other options.
Parking: There is a gravel parking lot across the street & there is street parking on both sides of the street

I’ve been going to Legends for over 20 years. With the recent sale I was looking forward to some changes. Well, I was beyond disappointed. Not a burger or chicken sandwich on the menu. The chicken in the menu was $32.00. The young man who was the host was rude. The menu was paper. There was a sushi bar. Not sure what the new owner is trying to do but catering to just the boujee city people isn’t the ticket.

Nice change from the previous owners. We had dinner on the restaurant side without a reservation and they were able to accommodate us. I had the clam chowder and tuna… and for dessert the tiramisu with good coffee. Great job and we’ll be back.

I had a great time at the sushi bar, lunch was delicious and great service. I popped in for some take out the night before and there seemed to be a cool local community vibe happening. I recommend the sushi - dine in or take out
