| - 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 entree, 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.
