Great place, my wife and I really loved it. It was our first time here and Michaela was an amazing server and a real sweetheart. The gumbo and cornbread was awesome, I don't know who's souther mama is working back in the kitchen, but kudos to her ?.

We came here for happy hour on a Thursday (happy hour is from 3pm - 6pm Monday thru Friday). We walked right in and sat ourselves - there was plenty of seating available. We weren't very hungry so we just ordered some sweet potato waffle fries to munch on and an old fashioned and a Moscow mule. The fries were very crispy and tasty. The drinks were also good and generous. The servers were attentive and came around multiple times throughout our time there to see if we needed anything else.

Food was good. Drinks are good too (depending on the bartender). I even met the owners my first night (yes, them).

the Maitre d greater us at the door, after explaining we were there for our first visit and we were celebrating my bday a day early she sat us and went over to tell the staff why we were there. we were greeted by multiple people taking care of our tabl, from refreshing our water to clearing and keeping our table clean. waitress was ingaged when asked about their food and drink, we had a very enjoyable and memorable visit... to top it off we ran into Kam as we were leaving and he was engaging with us ... would highly recommend

the food was just ok - if you like your food well-seasoned this is not the place for you - server was the bartender. After making a reservation you have to seat yourself. We ran into an older couple who did not know what to do. The lady finally said to us and her husband, I guess we seat ourselves, as she pointed to the sign. I made a reservation for a birthday after which asked if this is a special occasion. The reservation was useless and why asked if this was a special occasion when it is not acknowledged? Anyway, I can say I did it, but I will not do it again.

We were so excited about the opening of this place but I’m afraid to say that it was pretty disappointing :(
While I empathize with the challenges new restaurants face and strive to support local businesses, I regret to say that my experiences at Legion Sports restaurant have been consistently disappointing. Despite multiple visits, the customer service has been consistently poor, wait times excessive, and the food quality mediocre at best. The ambiance is "ok" but nothing special. Sadly, my recent attempt to give it another chance resulted in my friend and I being completely ignored for 20 minutes without a simple greeting. Regrettably, I cannot recommend this restaurant based on my experiences. I even requested to have a manager call me on my last visit and of course didn't even as much receive a call or follow up communication. It's now insulting and disrespectful at this point and I will never go back.
Had a great experience for my husbands pre funk birthday dinner. The hush puppies were absolutely fantastic along with a diversified wine list. Great bar food with a very nice wait staff. We will definitely visit again. Icing on the cake was being able to thank Kam in person on the way out the door.

Legion Sports Bar is a great addition to the Bellevue area. This is our fifth time coming in and it's been great. The service is fantastic, you'll never be wanting, as the bartender checks in frequently. I've not had a bad dish here. Burger? Delicious, Steak Bites? Tasty with a good chimichurri. On our last visit we recently had their Jambalaya, Boudin Bites and a cinnamon roll. It was all very good, but the cinnamon roll was divine. It was soft, warm, gooey, surprisingly light and straight delicious. Everything I want from a cinnamon roll. I'll be back for a 6th time. If you're in the area or visiting, take the chance, you won't regret it.

Very “mid” experience at Legion... drinks were tiny and overpriced - $19 for an old fashioned and margarita that was all ice... food had very little flavor - how do you miss on shrimp and grits and Cajun pasta?? We will not be back :(
I definitely don't get sports bar other then a couple trophies, and a few sports pictures by the restrooms. They do have small TV's throughout the bar. Went there for Soulful Wednesday and loved the music. The service was ok. The food was better than the first time but still needs a little work. The food takes a long time to come out. We waited 40 minutes for 2 biscuits and almost an hour for our food. When we ordered there was only about 10 people in the restaurant and several of these people were already eating. Don't get the candied yams unless you like a 2 inch layer of marshmallows and sugar and you don't want to taste the yam. The blackened catfish was seasoned well but for $39 you think it would be a little bigger then the size of a playing card and definitely a little thicker. The herb chicken lacked flavor and was a little dry. The baked beans, green beans, collard greens, and cabbage were seasoned well and delicious.

They clearly have new cooks from when they 1st opened because the food is ok at best lol. It's inconsistent & over priced. Not what you would expect from a "soul food" restaurant. I've been to the restaurant multiple times & each time I've been the menu has changed. The service is just ok, they fired their best server not too long after they opened smh. The ambiance is ok. It could be better for an upscale sports bar.

Food was good, drinks were awesome and the ambiance was good. Very efficient wait staff. Cool plus was there are plug ins at the bar seats and hooks for bags and purses. Fun spot will be back.

This place for me is great for a cocktail meet up. Food was too spicey for me but others may enjoy it. The ambience was great, super good view of tv's wherever you sit. The details are perfection, hooks for your purse or bag at the bar AND plug ins for your phones, great perk and eye for detail.
