A real Norman gem where we often see people we know. The food and service were excellent, as always. The menu has been stable for many years, full of great dishes we have enjoyed many times. The specials add a nice variety.

Service and food is always great. The shrimp pasta and soy glazed salmon were great tonight. They also have the best duck in town and their meatloaf is very good. The lemon cake is the best but all of their desserts are very good. Will be back for sure.

Everything was amazing from the server Cassie to the food. The Denver steak with blue cheese was amazing. The Coca Cola cake and Brownie were amazing! Literally the appetizers, the soup, the main entré to the dessert was delicious. I will definitely come back every time I am in Norman. 10/10 and the piano player was lively as well, and the ambiance was very mellow.

It was our anniversary. We've driven by the location countless times and have never tried it, so we gave it a go. It was superb. Small, more than casual, but less than formal. The menu & service were very good. The cocktails were done well and the dessert was delicious. Legends is in a space, price-wise, that is a little more than, "...we should go often," and a little less than, "...special occasions only for this one." We will definitely go back and try other items on the menu.

Once again we were not disappointed! This place is a hidden gem that we have loved for over 20 years plus! We took some friends with us to celebrate our husband's Birthday's and the food was wonderful and service great. Everyone is friendly and eager to make your night special! This place has a exceptional staff from the top down. The restaurant was very busy but the service was still top notch and everyone was being treated with that extra special treatment that they are so good at. Check it out you will be glad that you did!!!
