    Date night and we love going to see Ricardo and team when we dine at Legends Steak and Seafood. That is is exactly what we had! Scampi Sole and Filet. Nice wine selection of Jordan Chard and a dirty bombay martini. As always the place was busy and music was playing. Ricardo was very busy however he made sure we were delighted and satisfied with our meal. Anyone that has not experience the 5 star service and food is missing out. Highly recommend the staff and food ! If I would have had my phone I would have snapped a few pics. Next time. We are there at these a couple times a month.
