Legends Bar & Grill

New to Anthem and had to try the place. The happy hour was great. The variety of food was not just bar food. We all had something different and drank Martinis. Server Spencer was great, food was fantastic prices are good. We intend to be regulars! Look forward to trying many things.

We eat here several times a week. The food is spectacular. The burgers are huge! Rick the general manager is super friendly and always goes above and beyond device-​wise. The other employees are also very friendly and helpful.
Legends is the perfect place for a family meal or to watch a game with friends. Love it!!!

If you’re in Anthem, this is your sports bar. The food is great — I have had the spinach and artichoke dip and the only problem I had was there wasn’t enough dip to keep up with the chips!
The French onion soup is really nice, and I believe made in house. Also, the buffalo chicken sandwich is outrageous… as long as you ask for an extra side of buffalo sauce, if you need it.
Nice atmosphere, the service leaves some to be desired. Make your food and bev decisions quickly, because when the servers come by, you may not be able to flag them down for a while. For a sports bar, the food really does it here.

Love this place! Cold beer and an excellent twist on your normal bar foods. Had the beer battered mushrooms, jalapeño poppers (wrapped in bacon) and the caprese salad (with pickled onions). Excellent! Also had the BBQ pork sandwich and sirloin steak which was better than any local steakhouse. Our daughter and her friend actually saved room for dessert and had the deep fried cookie dough which was incredibly decadent and frankly amazing. Service was great! Fun and friendly laid back atmosphere. I highly recommend this place.

Just finished an absolutely delicious bleu bacon burger with a really different cole slaw made with kale. To die for dinner and half the price of Tru Burger with ten times the flavor…$ 2.00 happy hour beer!

I recently had an extremely disappointing visit to the un-​legandary «Legends». My girlfriend and I decided to give it a shot on a late night, and the service was absolutely astonishing. Astonishing in the sense that I didn’t realize service could be so dreadful. The host took about 3 minutes to greet us, since he was out having a chat with his buddy on the patio while having some cigarettes.
From that point on it got worse, the waiter legitimately didn’t even speak to us throughout the night, he apparently has mastered the art of communication through animal groans and head movements. Not to worry, the meal was $ 4.77 less since he got a $ 0.33 tip from me. Figured it would at least help him buy some more smokes.
All in all, decent food (for anthem.), uncomfortable atmosphere, and cringeworthy service.

Stopped here for an early dinner Sunday afternoon. The bar had quite a few people sitting watching a game. The restaurant was empty which verified my concerns about the food. The half chicken quesadilla on the happy hour menu was ok but the jalapeños were very bitter so I had to pick them off. If I went back I would order it again without onion and jalapeños-​just chicken and cheese. I had a pear salad and added chicken. It was very small like a half portion but the price reflected a huge full size salad. Husband had the bbq pork with fries and said it was just ok. The place is ok for drinks and an appetizer but I won’t be going back for dinner. Way too expensive for the quality and portion. The server was very nice and efficient.

Decided to give new ownership a try. Food is pretty meh bar food. Pre-​packaged and re-​heated. They refused to put on an Ohio State game for my honey… tried to tell us it was over when it was in the second quarter, then ‘forgot’ then couldn’t find the channel… It’s s freakin’ sports bar! Plus you have to walk thru cigarette smoke to get in. Not impressed.

New ownership! Great happy hour drink and daily food specials. Kids eat free Monday nights! Street tacos in Tuesday. $.49 wings on Wednesday! Boneless wings are great! Service has been great!

Awesome burgers! The meat is so tasty! The waitress was super nice and attentive! We will be back!

Better, but not great…
My wife and I went there about a year ago and it was absolutely terrible. Service was a joke, restaurant was dirty and the food! Mine was OK, but my wife ordered one of the Burgers. The cook forgot to remove the plastic wrap before cooking it and it was served to us that way, melted plastic and all.
We heard that they were «under new management» so we thought we would give it another go for lunch. The new owners didn’t do anything to renovate before opening so it looks exactly the same. We stood in the doorway for about five minutes before anyone even acknowledged we were there. When we did finally get sat down we had to wait another ten minutes for drinks and to have our order taken. There were only three other tables sat when we went in mind you. Our waitress was not very attentive and was more interested in watching TV.
I ordered the Blackened Chicken Sandwich. It was decent, had good flavor and was cooked well but the lettuce was soggy and the tomato’s were not fresh. My wife ordered the BBQ Bacon Burger and the bread was soggy. We ordered Mac ‘n Cheese for my daughter, it was cheap Kraft stuff (not even the deluxe), not home made.
Bottom line, the «new» owners had the opportunity to really turn this place around and missed the mark, terribly. It’s doubtful we will return.

We walked in not knowing what to expect, from the time we opened the door we were made to feel like family. The entire staff was very pleasant and quick with friendly banter. The waiter answered all our crazy food questions and brought everything to the table quickly and with a smile.
The beer was described so well, I ordered it, though I normally don’t like beer. The French dip I ordered was delicious, hot, fresh, and fell apart in my mouth. My friends raved about their burgers and sliders ‘excellent’ was muttered more than once.
I would come back here in a heart beat.

Under new management. Stopped here to meet up with some friends for the Cardinals’ game. Staff is really friendly and the food came out super fast. I had one of the burgers and we shared an ice cold pitcher of beer. Burger was cooked perfectly.
Cool mix of families, couples, and single fans. HUGE number of TVs so everyone could easily see the game. Clean place and the patrons were all nice people.
First time here, but I’ll be back soon.

OK, I’m not ordinarily a fan of sports bars; they’re loud, I’m not interested in watching football nonstop, and usually the food is mediocre. But we’re renovating the kitchen and needed to eat — husband was simply hungry, and I was looking for basic low carb food that wouldn’t totally blow my diet. We both found what we were looking for.
For a sports bar, it’s amazingly cozy; all the booths enclose you in privacy, with adequate, but not overpowering lighting.
I was hoping for adequate — and found really good food; good enough that I’ll be back regularly from here on in. We have tried several burgers, with the mushroom burger being our favorite so far. I went for the grilled salmon entrée, which comes with grilled asparagus and broccoli (a perfect low-​carb meal, perfect for anyone watching what they eat, frankly) and it was so good that I’ve eaten it three times in a row. I just can’t get enough of it!
The wine list is pretty good for a sports bar; I’m not a beer drinker so can’t comment on that, but the staff is friendly, knowledgeable and will bend over backwards to accommodate your wishes.
I only moved to the area from the San Francisco area in July, apparently while Legends was undergoing new management and renovations, so I can’t compare it to the old Legends, but so far this is one of only three restaurants in Anthem that I am willing to recommend to my out-​of-​town friends. Definitely worth a try.

We just had lunch at Legends — now under new management. My husband had a
great Philly Steak Sandwich and fries and I had a delicious Cobb Salad. The service
was efficient and friendly and the place looks bright and cheerful with the new décor.
The new manager is upbeat and welcomes new ideas and feedback. We will certainly be back and hope others in Anthem will give the NEW LEGENDS a fair chance!!!

Typical prepared, previously frozen bar food. There’s absolutely NOTHING about this place that’s even close to above average. I think the lack of options in Anthem is the sole reason this place is open. Keep up the Mediocre work guys. Mediocre food. Mediocre service. Mediocre décor and atmosphere. If the new owners are striving for 2 out of 5 stars… They’re nailing it!

This place is still terrible with new ownership. Food cold and tasteless. Unfriendly atmosphere. Save your money and time. Terrible snob attitudes! Never will go there again or recommend this place to anyone!

Went back after new ownership. I was disappointed. Hamburger and fries were cold. Service was not any different than before which was average. I had hopes it would have improved but no.

Went to Legends last night since they have new owners and what a difference. Place is clean, inviting and the food was good. If you have not been there for a while give it another try.

Was staying at the Hampton In off Anthem Way and the 1 – 17 for a wedding and needed a bar and grill situation to entertain relatives, catch college football games, and get a bite to eat. The area offers very little in the way of restaurants, so Legends it was.
Ambiance:
–sports bar, with table, booth and bar seating.
–lots of big screen TVs with multiple games. Had college games on Saturday.
–seem to be fans of ISU (Iowa State), owners likely from midwest
–place was nearly empty on a Saturday afternoon, I think there was one patron at the bar.
Service:
–our waitress was polite and friendly
–bartender does not seem familiar with standards for alcoholic beverages (see below)
Food:
–my fiancé and I split a full chicken quesadilla ($ 8.99). One of the best quesadillas I’ve had. The waitress suggested we use the Nobody Beats Mitch (you know, the furniture/​mattress superstore) hot sauce. It was SUPER HOT! and tasty. Just beware of the repercussions the next day.
–my aunt also ordered a quesadilla ($ 8.99) and my uncle ordered the loaded fries ($ 7.99). Overall, they seemed happy with their food, and with the large portion sizes, we had enough to take back to the hotel.
Drinks:
–our waitress was unaware of what liquors they had, originally a Black Velvet and Diet Coke was ordered, she came back and let us know they didn’t carry BV.
–the bartender (and possibly the server) had no idea how drinks were to be served/​garnished. My uncle ordered a long island iced tea, was not served in appropriate glassware and also was missing the standard lemon. I ordered a margarita, was also served in the wrong glassware and was missing the lime.
The food was great, the prices were on point, but the lack of patronage and the apparent inexperience of the bartender/​server really killed the expected sports bar and grill vibe.
