No restaurant in Norman has a better feel than Legend's. This is probably because it has been a Norman staple for decades. Continental cuisine with some southwestern influences. Best Caesar salad in town. Always a fresh fish or beef special too, often with a good sauce of some kind. Classic dining in a setting slightly more upscale than most restaurants in Norman. Always a good bet for a nice lunch or evening out. read more

Very much enjoyed our dinner at Legends. I was soo happy to see that they offered seared Duck breast! It's very tough to find places that serve this dish. It was perfect and super flavorful. The desert was delicious we had the amaretto layered cake. Hubby had the fried catfish and said it was a little dry hence why I have rated this place 4 stars. The atmosphere was warm and fancy. But not snobby. We dropped in without a reservation in our comfy road trip clothes and they treated us the same as their more regular patrons in their white button down shirts and fancy clothes :) read more

First time and loved it! The desserts are fantastic, so hard to choose. Went with coca cola cake, warm with ice cream - so yummy! My son had the fettucini Alfredo, it was perfect! read more

I have come a few times before and the food is always well prepared and fresh. Service has been excellent and we had Kristi helping us this last time. She was phenomenal with her service. The live pianist also was incredible and makes the atmosphere special. read more

Good food and a very good service. It's a 20 to 30 dollars per person place and you need to know that going into it. The food is not "super doper" fine dining, but its good and very satisfying. It's a great atmosphere and the servers are very professional and knowledgeable. Honestly, as far as Norman's restaurants go, Legends is definitely in the top 3. read more

Treated myself to a night out. My drink and waiter, Jeff, were awesome. Jeff was the perfect combination of attentiveness without being a nuisance! My filet was good but not the best I have ever had. Great salad bar with a good mix and my loaded bake potato was especially delish.i even ate most of the sautéed zucchini. Home-made bread just ok. My only complaint: no room for dessert. Will just have to come back! read more

Best brunch ever! My mac and cheese was delicious and creamy and just absolutely incredible. My boyfriend had the lasagna rolls and loved them as well! Mimosas were super good too! Definitely coming back again! read more

Great restaurant with amazing food. Came to Legends for lunch with a few coworkers and we were very impressed. A very friendly staff greeted us and seated us right away during the lunch hour. The prices are very reasonable and the service outstanding. Definitely recommend this place if you're in the area and looking for good quality food and a classy atmosphere. read more

I was so disappointed! Walked in to an awesome atmosphere complete with candles and fresh cut flowers on the tables. However, the food was so not good. I travel a great deal for work so I eat in a good many restaurants and I will not be recommending this one. The salad bar looked great, but everything I got off of it tasted stale. I had the Chicken fettuccine Alfredo and it was only okay. Someone else in our party got steak and said it tasted funny. I tasted it and would swear it was rotten. We will not go back. read more

I love Sunday Brunch at Legends. The eggs benedict are fabulous and so are the bloody marys. Will definitely go back.

I don't know what was more scrumptious, the food or the waiter! Would definitely recommend the brunch. Wonderful atmosphere, cheap mimosas, and everything on the menu is fresh and delicious! I'll definitely be going back for more brunch. read more

The experience I had at Legend's was nothing short of perfect! The service was fantastic, the ambiance was very cool and the food was phenomenal! This is my new favorite place in Norman, I can't believe I didn't discover it until now! read more

Excellent food and service. I recommend reservations or off peak time if you want a quiet dining experience . It can get rather loud on Friday nights and Saturday nights. read more

A great Norman staple. Nice atmosphere and upscale experience with prices comparable to Charlston's. Their specials, salad bar, homemade desserts (I suggest the lemon cake) and chicken crepes are the best! read more

LOVE this place!!!!! I've been multiple times for brunch in have not been for any other meal as of yet. I get a mimosa, salad bar, and lobster bennie. It's AMAZING! I've tried other things as well and it's all good. I can't wait to go here again. It's on the smaller side so be prepared. The piano player is great. read more

Had the filet. Served with a cold baked potato and by the time I got a hot potato the steak was cold. Shouldn't be that hard to do a descent steak and potato. Staffs attitude was stuff happens. read more

This restaurant is remarkably consistent. The food is excellent, and the service is as good as any fine dining restaurant in New Orleans. The wait staff is experienced and choreographed. No meddling, no stumbles, no disappearing acts. Entrees include soup/salad and side, so the price is very reasonable. If Marion is at the keyboard, then you're all set. read more

Lobster mac and cheese is amazing and the atmosphere makes you feel like your in a country club

I love Legends. This is my favorite place to take a date. The atmosphere is quiet and intimate and I love their steaks

Horrible service. Food was ok, but staff was a nightmare. Visited on New Years expecting a great dining experience. Will never be going back. The bartender, and management in particular ruined what would have been a great night. read more

I've been a Norman resident for years and have heard countless raves about Legend's but had never gotten around to trying it. When my mom visited this past weekend my fiance and I thought we would take her to Sunday brunch at this Norman "institution". Unfortunately, my experience left me wondering what all the good reviews were about. We made a reservation for 12:30 and were seated just a few minutes after we arrived. Unfortunately, that was where prompt service ended. Once at our table we waited a good 10-15 minutes before we were even acknowledged by our server, who seemed annoyed at having to serve us and too busy to even read us the specials. We ordered mimosas and glasses of water and waited for what seemed like forever as we watched our server chatting with another server in the back. Finally when another employee brought out our bread, I mentioned that we still had not received any water (at this point we had been seated about 20 minutes) and asked if he could retrieve our server. A few minutes later our server reappeared by our table and "apologized" for our wait, saying that he had heard we'd been complaining about him and making it seem that we were being ridiculous and difficult for expecting waters to take less than 20 minutes. We then placed our order and waited another half hour or so. We all had the salad bar which was good but nothing to write home about. We also received one small piece of bread each and when that was gone no more was offered. Our entrees, once they finally arrived were just so-so. We will most likely go somewhere else for brunch from now on. read more

Terrible service and the food is at best mediocre. The restaurant also looks like a retirement home.

Celebrating our anniversary. I had the scallops. Hubby had the duck breast. Both were fabulous!! My wedge salad was delicious. And our service was wonderful! And thank you to the pianist for playing an anniversary-ish song for me and my sweetheart! read more

Overpriced, mediocre food and wildly uneven service. Legend's continuing popularity is an indictment of Norman's restaurant scene. Luckily, there are many better options in town! read more

went there for brunch with a group for a before Christmas sunday and no complaints! had the chorizo ommelette and the chorizo was some of the best I had the salad bar was really good as was the service. the desserts looked really good and we got a piece of lemon cake to go it was Outstanding! service is good, pricey pace but worth it read more

This restaurant is stuck in the past. Very mediocre food at a very high price. The kitchen needs a change, badly.

The two reviewers below are reviewing 2 different restaurants. The one connected to the hotel is inexpensive and more of a coffee shop. The Legends Restaurant is more of an upscale restaurant that has become one of my favorites. The previous reviewer talked of their great desserts and I second that. They have many delicious items on their menu. Their salad bar is one of the best. Their fish tacos and their chicken crepes are fantastic. Service is always excellent. The restaurant is older, but very clean. I think it is pretty, but I can see where the previous reviewer would say that it might need updating. This restaurant is one of the few these days where it is quiet enough to have a conversation. That is becoming rarer and rarer! It is definitely worth checking out! read more

Stopped in for dinner on a Wednesday. First visit. Drinks were great. Salad bar was old fashioned and fun. Stuff was fresh and tasty. Service was exceptional and then dinner came. I ordered the honey chicken and it was not breaded in panko and drenched in sauce so not crispy. Rice was unseasoned. Veggie needed S&P. Guest ordered the rib eye pork chop and more than 1/3rd was inedible due to grizzle. More than half was fat. She didn't say anything at first, but when server cleared plates she noted the food left there and got the manager. He said it is to be expected to have fat with a rib cut. Hmmm...when I went to culinary school we didn't serve it that way and in the last 30 years I've not seen grizzle called fat. So we skipped dessert and paid our check. The whole check. Server was good. Manager needs some work. read more

Incredible menu, service, atmosphere, and deserts! Everything about this restaurant seems like the perfect hybrid between fine dining and casual eats. This is my new favorite restaurant in the Oklahoma City area. Save room for the Coca-Cola Cake! read more

Was in town visiting family and decided to take them out to eat, Read good reviews and thought this would be a good place to eat, I couldn't have been more wrong. Although the staff was nice everting else was terrible the building itself was hot in some places and cold In others and it seemed to be was past time for a remodel. The atmosphere seemed like it was meant to be a spoof of an actually nice restaurant. The guy who I learned from my family was the owner seemed grumpy and all the staff tried to avoid him, it was awkward how long he would hover over tables and seemed to have no real role besides sitting at the bar. And Don't even get me started on the food, I got the Ribeye and at first sight was excited, however after that first bite I realized what a mistake this place was, the meat wasn't necessarily cooked that bad it just tasted as if it was a really cheap steak that had sat in a freezer for too long. After that I I asked for the check as quick as possible and got out of there read more

Fun family environment with quality food removed from everyday mundane choices. The live pianist actually added to the ambiance. Can't wait to go again. read more

The food here is great, as is the service. It doesn't seem like the place has changed in the past 20 years, but in this case, that's a good thing. Updating the menu with more options is my only suggestion for this place. As others have said, the desserts are great. read more

The best Salmon Salad Ive ever had BAR NONE!!! The service is excellent and the decor is pleasing I give this place a 10!

Visited Legends with my family on a Saturday. The burgers were tasty, served on a toasted bun with fresh lettuce and all the sides. Try the tomato dill soup on a cold day. Salad bar was fresh, with lots of very flavorful sides to add on. The potato salad was amazing. Portions were medium-sized, but you won't leave hungry. Servers were VERY polite and professional. read more

The food didn't taste good. The fish was so spicy that I couldn't eat it all since my mouth was on fire. The lasagna sausage was a joke. It has small pieces of sausage that you would find on a frozen pizza. They said world famouse salad bar. There was nothing world famouse about it. It was so basic. The spinach dip came with bread not chips. The bread was so hard that it cut the roof of my mouth. The service was great but getting are food took forever read more

Came to legends on Friday night my waitresses name was Claire she was very personable. I got the Beef Medallions. It was amazing. Definitely recommended Legends to everyone who wants a fine dining experience in a casual environment. read more

delicious chicken crepes and salad bar and a lot of dessert choices- all is consistently delicious

Way too pricey and not worth it. I have a friend that worked there a few years ago who says they microwave their crepes, crab cakes,calimari, and make their quiche a week ahead so it is just stored for a week before they serve it. Though I do say it is a unique atmosphere and has been in Norman since the 70's I think that it is overrated. I used to love going in for the salad bar because I thought it was fresh until my friend told me when he worked there that they just store all the salad stuff in there walk in over night. I honestly do not care to give my hard earned money to an establishment that doesn't even value their customers or employees. Servers are by law suppose to get 2.13 an hour plus tips but sometimes my friend would get a paycheck of $0 even though he worked 25 hours that week, how is that possible or legal? There food might be fancier or more upscale such as the delicious salmon or searing duck but knowing all these facts about the establishment and how they are running their company I cannot respect them and will never give them my business again. read more
