Legend Upper West

We finally gave Legend a try...and boy do we regret wasting our delivery night on this place. We can't complain about the delivery time...that was spot on. But the food was flavorless. Both chicken dishes were bland and rubbery. The scallion pancakes had no scallion flavor. And that's just the beginning. Sorry, Legend, but not even worth the benefit of the doubt and a second order. We'll roll the dice and try another place next time...it'd be pretty hard to find someplace even more disappointing.

This place was full last night. The service was prompt and the food terrific. Highly recommend!

Happy to have made this find in neighborhood! Definitely best Chinese take-out we have had for years. Delicate, surprising, fresh and not gloppy or sweet. Delivery was fast and, though a bit more expensive, is worth it.

I absolutely love Legend Upper West. The food is awesome and authentic, the service is prompt, and you definitely get a lot of bang for your buck. I just wish more people knew about knew about it!

We just ordered in from Legend again, hoping the third time would be the charm. Not so. The best I can say is that the food came relatively fast. But the beef with string beans was very bland, another dish (chicken with chestnuts) tasted very odd and unplesant--and was all brown, with no veggies--and the sesame noodles were blah. Much as I've been rooting for this place, and for it to be our new go-to (or take-out) local Chinese restaurant, I'm afraid it's off the list. I'll stick to to other places if I want good Asian food.

So gooD, especially chongching chicken!

The spicy noodles were a little heavy on the soy sauce but the pea shoots and kung pao tofu were fantastic. I look forward to eating there again.
