Legend 72: Reviews & Ratings
Second time here, everything was delicious! All my friends enjoyed a lot. I like the pineapple sausage fried rice, and the mao xue wang was absolutely delicious! Definitely recommend for friends gatherings!
Very good Szechuan restaurant. Was recommended to me by a family friend who was born in Szechuan, China. Food is fresh and light. The Mapo, Double Cooked Pork, Spicy Chicken, and Duck were all amazing. Definitely give them a try if you are looking for extremely satisfying Szechuan food!
We loved the tofu, and the sichuan chili fish , very fresh and delicious, full of flavor! It is our Kichen, whenever we have gathering or friends, we always go here, the service like we are at home, all are taken cared of !
This is one of the best restaurants I go to. I can have legend 72 everyday. Its better than almost all of Chinese restaurants Ive been to. I think its better than Che Li. If you like Mala, try Chendu fish fillet and mapo Tofu. If you like basic, simple lunch special, try Chao Fun, kung pao chicken or sesame chicken.
Best Chinese food in NYC. Every dish is exceptional.
Very well prepared authentic Szechuan cooking. The special chive pancakes were freshly steamed and perfect. We loved the unique dry fried spicy chicken w peanuts and scallions. Great little place
I had a great time with my friends. The service was amazing They were so kind.
One of the few places that was open on Christmas. Food was delicious and seemed authentic. I had stir fried beef. I appreciated the notes of ginger I could clearly taste and slices of fresh garlic. Food was hot, fresh, and came out quickly. Staff was very friendly despite being busy. I will make this my neighborhood staple.
