We visited last right for a late dinner. We anticipated the opening and were very excited to experience the chophouse. We sat at the bar, there was football and NE volleyball on. Nice TV’s, looked like same arrangement from prior restaurant. House & other wines $11 & up and bottles of wines $54 & up. I ordered the 6 oz sirloin added a side of mushrooms and baked potato butter only. The salad bar was great, I didn’t care for the silver cold platter, a frosted glass plate would be better. No bread basket or rolls, would be a nice touch. Steak was very delicious, tender and good flavor. My friend didn’t have as good as an experience. He ordered the lobster bisque. Didn’t like the tomato base they use. Ordered 6 oz filet and was charged for 8 oz without letting him know. At the bar, make sure to ask for salt & pepper, utensils and hope all food comes out together. I will revisit in a month or so to see how the experience is and if they work out the small details.

Took the opportunity to have date night at the legacy chophouse . I must say it exceeded our expectations. Service was great with a Separate wait staff for drinks and food . We had crab stuffed mushrooms for an appetizer , shrimp and scallops , and the fillet with cheesy risotto! All excellent choices . We highly recommend for any occasion.

Very clean, nice salad bar and then it falls off… steak has a weird sour glaze on it and definitely not medium rare plus the addition of a blue string in my bowl of loaded potatoes.. Server was excellent. Came for lunch and probably won’t be back, not worth the price unfortunately…

--update-- menu confusion has been resolved! Went back to enjoy v-day. Food was fantastic, but service really distanced this location from other fine dining, lots of errors tonight. Having a cocktail waitress and food waitress is not only confusing, but also creates bad timing were we were left with empty drinks wanting to order more. Cut the number of table per waitress, zero need for 2 styles of waitress, it's not fancy...it's confusing. Missed my husband's soup for his steak, bread service was delayed. After finishing our entree it was almost an hour until we finally paid out bill. Yes, we ordered dessert, but that was slow also. Bill was wrong, got charged an extra cocktail and didn't receive a discount for the missed soup. I want to love this place for the delicious food, but the staff has had time to learn and needs to step off the amateur level status! -original post- For opening night, fantastic job! There were some small glitches that I'm sure will be resolved quickly, and the steak was the mouthwatering highlight! Servers were attentive and the busser's were prompt. The kitchen was quick too, lots of positives for the first night open! We will be back again! Drinks: started with a Hazy Espresso and an Old Fashioned. Hazy was perfection of coffee and hazelnut cocktail. The old fashioned was a little harsh at first but mellowed as time when on. Appetizer: Cowboy Caviar, good but nothing exciting. Typical chips and pico style salsa. The lobster cargot sounds interesting, we probably try that next time Kids: Absolutely fantastic for keeping a kid happy while the parents eat some steak! Instead of the typical crayons and paper, they give the kids a magic board to use, Genius! Kiddo loved it! Has a kids drink with a ring pop in it (Bandit) and has a wide selection of kids dinners with ice cream dessert. Unfortunately the kid sliders on menu don't mention it has cheese on it, which is a deal breaker for our "hamburger only" kid. The ice cream was good, but WAY too much for a kid, the serving could have been 1/3 of the size. It put us parents in bad position to make us stop our kid from eating too much. Soup/salad: Offered on most venue items. The salad bar was a good salad bar, nothing extravagant, but everything was ice cold and clean. Husband had the lobster bisque, very tasty and creamy. Dinner: steaks absolutely the star of the show! Filet was cooked to med-rare perfection. Truffle butter and pepercorn sauce were both good add-on as well as the 3 scallops cooked to perfection. Sides: extremely confusing. There are regular sides and sharable sides. Sharable sides are obviously bigger quantities, but is not readily apparent if you can order them as a personal size for an upcharge. I intended to order sweet potatoes as a sharable side, but was given in a single size serving with my dinner. No big deal until I was charged a full size price (it was rectified, after I caught it on the bill) Dessert: bread pudding, huge serving, easily shared by 4! Delicious but first night glitches left it only luke warm instead of piping hot. Something I look forward to trying again once the kinks are worked out.

Not a bad place. I'd eat there again but I wasn't blown away. My ribeye was flavorful however it was overcooked to a medium, not medium rare as ordered. I think this was easy to do because it's a pretty damn thin ribeye. I also thought the separation of duties between waitresses was odd. Only one would take food orders, the other took drink orders. What's with that? I loved the salad bar and the sides were respectable.

I recently dined at Legacy Chophouse, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm and upscale. The staff was attentive and genuinely passionate about providing excellent service. The star of the evening was, of course, the food. The steak was cooked to perfection — tender, juicy, and seasoned impeccably. The sides were just as impressive, especially the Brussel sprouts and garlic mashed potatoes. The dessert menu didn’t disappoint either; the Legacy Cheesecake with Strawberry Topping was the perfect way to end the meal. If you’re looking for a top-tier dining experience, Legacy Chophouse is the place to be. I can’t wait to come back!

The steak was good and cooked as ordered, my wife enjoyed the fish, but everything else was acceptable at best. We will try the restaurant again in a few months since they just opened. The rolls seemed mass-produced in a factory, the appetizers did nothing for us, and the sides were small to be considered shareable. We did enjoy the salad bar, it was fresh and continually restocked. I had been looking forward to the desserts. We ordered the sampler and didn’t finish any of the three. One item we ordered was the Turtle Cheesecake, but they brought out a normal cheesecake. I’m not sure how that happens since plain cheesecake isn’t on the menu unless the dessert is prepared by their food distributor. The moment the staff noticed we were done with a plate, they asked if they could remove it. This became annoying as it continuously interrupted our conversation. I would suggest waiting till there’s more than one plate or bowl to remove. Especially since we weren’t lacking space. The atmosphere is amazing and I really like the fireplace.

The service was excellent. The steaks were cooked perfectly. The salad bar was clean fresh and well stocked. We had onion rings as a starter they came with a couple of dipping sauces they were very good and plentiful. Was very pleased with the whole meal will come back.
