The restaurant was very clean and family-friendly
I called on a Friday afternoon for a reservation for a party of two, luckily they were able to squeeze us in at 7:45. Thank god I called! This unassuming neighborhood spot doesn't have more than 10-15 tables max, most of which are close to each other. I don't mind if my table is close to the people dining next to me, I actually prefer the energy it brings and I must say the vibe was spot on in Legends. It very much reminded me of an authentic neighborhood spot tucked away in NYC. You're served warm focaccia bread with olive oil to start which was a nice precursor to the meal. I chose the chicken parmigiana while my boyfriend had the gnocchi bolognese. Each entree came with a deliciously fresh salad, it is clear Legends does not skimp on the quality of the food being served. Our entrees were wonderful, I could tell my chicken had been made to order and breaded just before being cooked. We ended our meal with the apple pie which was garnished with what seemed to be amazing home made whipped cream. Service was good, you can tell it's a group effort which is fine by me. I will absolutely be back for more!
Legends of the North Shore is one of the best Italian restaurants you are going to find in Pittsburgh. Every item on the menu is delicious. It always comes out hot and fast. The staff is friendly and the prices are adequate. The only reason this doesn't get a rating of 5.0 is because the place is super tight. You are definitely making friends with the people at the next table. If Legends were in a bigger place this would be an 11 on the 10 scale!
