“I can't believe Legami wasn't on my radar until recently! We had an incredible dinner with outstanding drinks. The Legami Martini truly made its mark with the burrata-stuffed olives.

We tried the oysters, which were uniquely paired with pickled onions. The added crunch gave them an unexpected texture that actually worked surprisingly well together. The Shrimp Kataifi was another favorite. I had never had anything like it before but I do wish the portion included more than three shrimp for the price.

This was the best Gnocchi dish I’ve ever had. It was both creamy and flavorful. If Gnocchi isn’t your style, I highly recommend the Pappardelle Al Ragu. Overall, it was a great dinner with exceptional service and beautiful presentation.“

From appetizers to desserts, every dish was crafted with care and creativity. It was a wonderful way to experience the menu and share in the joy of great food together.

But the food is truly amazing. We will absolutely be back to try other foods as well :)“

“We booked the private room above Vincent Chico’s restaurant for our company meeting. It was an incredible experience. The staff was on top of it with service and communication. The food was also very good. Sometimes, when you have a family style meal, the dishes will not come out at the right temperature. All of our meals came out hot and ready to eat. I was very impressed by the flavor of the food. We had -salad -bruschetta -seared salmon -roasted chicken -seasonal pasta -roasted fingerling potatoes -sautéed spinach -cheesecake bites We also had our own bar upstairs so wine and cocktails were available. It was a great night, and everyone enjoyed themselves. I will definitely recommend and use the space again in the future.“

She was most helpful in suggesting the amount and toppings. My mobility issues allowed me to go to the Lobby and receive my Pizza. Leo brought it to the desk, he was very nice, appreciative and caring. April and Leo are great employees to have, they accommodate others issues and make it happen. I am most grateful and thankful. My Pizza,Side Salad, Strawberry Lemonade mad the difference also. Thank you again and again April and Leo.“

“Food was good- pepperoni and basil on gluten free crust & another pepperoni on regular crust. Pizza is wood fired and has that thin crust, rustic, floury thing going on. The kids tried the hot honey on theirs and loved it! The meat and cheese board was good as well. We went on a weekend and there was competing music between here and the bar across the street, lots of people, lots of kids playing on the playground in the seating area.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free crust available“
