    Overall the experience was good! The waitress was not as attentive and I told her so! She apologized and tried to make it up toward the end. I didn’t like the lobster bisque. It tasted like brown gravy. Needs improvement plus it would not have hurt to actually have lobster in it! We’ve been dining at Legal’s for over 35 years! I miss some of the old dishes like the gluten free pizza with crab and white cheese! js

    Saturday afternoon lunch with family. I like Legals but usually don’t LOVE it. However, this location gave me one of the best Legal experiences I’ve had. Service was fantastic. Entire staff was attentive. And the food was really good.

    As always fish tacos were delicious but portion with toppings continue to get less and less. Price goes up, portions go down!
