Thank you to wonderful Jonas and Jacquelyn for the outstanding service.  Mia came over to check on my dear friend with an allergy.  This is five star service folks, allergies are no joke.  The drinks were delish and the food divine.  Terell with his cute self checked in to round out the evening. The food brings you in, but the service brings you back.  Thank you again J&J for the dreamy experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It was wonderful and we will be back!

It was an absolute delight eating here! The food was top notch; we enjoyed everything so much that we wiped out plates! Doug, our server, was attentive and knowledgeable. And the vibe was chic and cozy at the same time, such delightful decor!

We went as a larger party, which sometimes can be a true test on a restaurant's time and quality of food. Our waiter was very thorough even with some of the guests with food restrictions (they offer gluten free penne by the way!)

Everything from the drinks, to the appetizers, entrees and desserts were delicious! It took no time at all for our food to be served, and everything was mouthwatering. Will absolutely be returning!

I only sat at the bar, so I can't speak to the food, but this place has good lighting, an upscale vibe an well dressed patrons. In fact I feel a bit underdressed! This place had remained vacant for a while and I'm glad they got a new business in here. Good date place, and friendly bartenders.

I found Legami through a mention on Eater, and thought it would be a great place to bring my sister for her Birthday last Saturday. I read some mixed reviews a couple of hours before our reservation, so went in a bit apprehensive.

Walking into Legami, it’s a gorgeous restaurant! We were greeted super warmly by the host, and he had no issue transitioning our reservation from 3 to 2. He sat us at a 4 top table in the back by the kitchen (assuming due to our original reservation), and was so kind when we requested to move to a 2 top in the front of the restaurant after deciding that wasn’t the vibe we were hoping for. They were very busy, with a line at the host stand when I went back up to request the change. I was dreading asking, but he was so accommodating and changed us without any issue. Kudos for stellar customer service! I wished I had got his name.

We continued to have amazing service with Olive as our server for the night. She immediately brought us two glasses of sparkling wine with a Birthday card for my sister, made great recommendations, wasn’t hovering but checked on us regularly.

We both had the Legami martini with the snack side car. This is a must order for anyone that enjoys a dirty martini. Phenomenal. The Birthday girl had two! Ha

We split a bunch of items. The focaccia with ricotta was heavenly, as was the hamachi crudo. The field greens salad was huge, fresh, but too heavily dressed for my preference. I ordered the ravioli, and really enjoyed them. My sister ordered the butternut squash pasta (can’t remember the exact name), and we found it a bit bland.

We intended on splitting more, but were too full. We got the roasted pineapple desert with anise ice cream and loved it! Of course they brought it out with a candle. Extra bonus points for that.

Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely go back to try more dishes! We had incredible service, and that alone will always bring me back to a restaurant.

Tip: Request a table in the front of house or upstairs for a nicer ambiance. Don’t miss the Legami martini, focaccia, or crudo of the day.
