My hubby and I enjoyed such a beautiful and romantic date night at Legacy 27, and the experience was absolutely unforgettable! From the intimate atmosphere to the amazing hospitality, everything was just perfect. A special shoutout to Donson for the incredible recommendations and outstanding service!The Jollof rice paired with the lamb chops was definitely the star of the night packed with flavor and absolutely delicious! And if you haven't tried the Sweet Nothing cocktail you're missing out! It's a must-try! Legacy 27 truly knows how to create a memorable dining experience. We loved every moment and will definitely be back! 10/10 for the food, service, and romantic vibes.

    This was our 4th or 5th time dining here. Always a pleasure. We come for the great jazz and are always pleased with the food. Menu has evolved over the past 2 years and continues to be tasty. Love the fact that happy hour is long and includes mixed drinks as well as beer and wine. The jambalaya is amazing and you can never go wrong with the southern fried chicken - moist and tender and just the right amount of spices. Quantities are filling and we always end up taking home leftovers. Look forward to our next visit!
