Legend Asian Restaurant — Restaurant in Farmington

Please, anyone, avoid this potential death trap. Editing the review to reflect the dishonesty of the owners response. We will be including the receipt, and the bag given to us to bring home pretty much everything in the next photo, and the photos we shared are of everything we couldn't bring ourselves to eat while we were there, after dumping it into to go containers we knew we wouldn't touch. We also called the # provided, which has no room for voicemail anymore. I'll be happy to bring this distgusting trash I wouldn't feed a pig back tomorrow! Probably one of the worst Asian restaurants in the state, and really sad they chose to keep the horrible reputation of the previous restaurant, Jade Palace. The food was just awful, there's no way around it. Don't believe the stock pictures you see on their website, with beautiful food and plates and dishes, expect food so gross you wonder if it's safe to eat, and on old cracked and stained plates and bowls. The tables are so sticky the paper placemats won't move; this place needs to call Restaurant Impossible or Gordon Ramsey, because it's just a complete mess. We ordered the tidbit as an appetizer and only got 2 of each item, when the menu said 3. The Pork Spearribs were gritty for some reason, and we joked hopefully that they hadn't fallen on a dirty floor, fingers crossed! As a former restaurant manager, it was easy to tell most everything was pre prepared or on the verge of expiration, and they're trying to pass off thigh meat as advertised white meat dishes. To top it off, we we're charged $26 for one of the most distgusting drinks we've ever had, and were otherwise given 20oz bottles of soda to drink, had to ask for a cup with ice and extra napkins twice. The generals chicken, coconut chicken, and Sesame chicken were all made of the same fried and battered dark meat, with each supposed to have a different sauce. The Generals and Sesame chicken were in a weird brown bbq sauce, and the coconut chicken was made with expired coconut milk and so coagulated that we all just summed up Legends as Legendary Bad! Don't go here, don't even bother wasting a few dollars on this garbage food for $93 for 2. Who knows how much our friends wasted, considering she brought home food to her sick husband that is probably going to have him on the...

Only went in because the other Chinese restaurant in town is closed. We started with the fried pork dumplings. We had to wait 30 minutes for them to come out not even warm (I can only wonder how cooked they actually got). We then got the extra spicy general tso’s chicken and orange chicken, somehow they were the same color. I wish I could say the general tso’s was hot in any way but it wasn’t. Spice was non existent and temperature was like it was sitting on a counter for an hour only warmed by the sun. Orange chicken wasn’t much better. Only a couple pieces tasted like orange had been shoved down my throat, the rest was just salty brown sauced chicken. Spare ribs were very gritty, like they hadn’t melted the sugar in the sauce. Only good things were the crab rangoons. Ended up going up to get our check to leave because we were done picking for 20 minutes, I’m sure they are short staffed but something needs to change. There were maybe 4-5 other tables in the restaurant. All in all, will never go again. Clearly they lack heat in multiple ways and should probably check if their stove (microwave) is broken. I would like to add, I am a cook myself and have made these sauces before. They are not hard, especially for a ‘Asian’ restaurant to make. Save your money and wait for somewhere...

Words cannot express how bad the quality of the food was, which we purchased from Legend yesterday. Everyone who ate the food has had vicious stomach cramps and diarrhea since two hours after consuming it. The chicken was chewy and riddled with fat. I am talking about grizzly, fatty chunks of chicken that were in inedible. The sauce on the chicken was a brown corn syrup at best with no other flavor. I ordered shrimp pad Thai and it was anything but. It was just a plate of salty noodles with hardly any sauce, a handful of tiny extremely freezer burned shrimp and maybe a quarter teaspoon of crushed peanuts. All of the ingredients are old and judging by the intestinal distress, I’m guessing expired.

The service was decent, but the place was almost empty, which should have been a clear indication to stay away.

Hands-down, the most disgusting food I have ever paid for. Most of it went in the garbage, but we are all paying dearly for what we did consume as it will be kicking around in our stomachs for quite some time it seems.

Don’t make the same mistake. If for some reason you have no other choice, I would recommend just skipping dinner. Your intestines...
