Legacy Kitchen Oyster Counter And Tap

We were here for early lunch so it wasn't busy yet. The server was very attentive and the ambiance is great. I love their charbroiled oyster and crab bisque soup, very tasty I can eat it everyday.

Great atmosphere and not too loud. Can have a conversation. Friendly and attentive staff. Food is quite tasty and well prepared. I had the pecan crusted catfish and alligator bits. Simply delicious.

Very good food for the price and location. Great drinks too. Highly recommend stopping in!

Good food. This is a great location in the financial district, just about 1/2 mile from the French quarter and located near many hotels. The bar is hip and cool. They have plenty of seating. There is a good beer list and wine list. I loved the crab and corn chowder, chicken and waffles and the crawfish Cesar salad. They have a full bar too if you like that.

The service was exceptional, very friendly and quick as well.
I totally recommend this restaurant for a quick bite or for dinner!

Throughout my four day stay in NOLA, my friends and I came to Legacy 3 out of 4 of those days. It was connected to our hotel, and they had an awesome happy hour.

Happy hour is daily 3-6 and applies to the table too, not just at the bar. You can get $3 beer/wine, and BOGO raw/charbroiled oysters. I'll admit that on our first visit, we went a little crazy. We each got a dozen oysters (which comes out to about $8 for a dozen), AND 8 of the charbroiled oysters ($7.50 for 8). Everything was great, but the charbroiled oysters are a bit heavy. Eight is definitely too much for one person.

There was never really anyone there whenever we went during happy hour. I'm not sure why more people aren't taking advantage of this deal. If I lived in NOLA, my cholesterol level would definitely be up from coming here all the time.
