  My daughter and I came to Legends a minute before their lunch special ended at 3pm and the cashier was so helpful and Patient when I was ordering slow.(My fault). Haven't tried the food yet. But the service is amazing ❤️

  Love the interior of this place. Upon walking in, it is nice and bright. The staff was super friendly and the girl in front was very helpful. I had a few items including their waffle, chicken sandwiches, and tteokbokki. The way they fry their chicken is so good. The skin is super crispy yet the chicken inside is still juicy. Also, this might be one of the best chicken and waffles I've ever had. The waffles are crispy on the center and soo fluffy on the inside. They also give you whip cream and butter with it. It was delicious. If this was a breakfast spot, I would go back to order the waffles every day. I also like how much toppings are in their tteokbokki. The flavor was really good and wasn't too overly spicy which I enjoy. The chicken sandwich was a little hard to eat because it is HUGE but nonetheless, it was great. The chicken wasn't dry even though they were tenders. Overall, I really liked my meal there and found it really delicious.

  Legend Hot Chicken in Hacienda Heights is an absolute MUST-VISIT! 🔥🍗 I finally stopped by the location at 15904 Gale Ave and wow — this place delivered everything I wanted and more. The chicken is perfectly crispy on the outside, incredibly juicy and tender inside, with that signature Nashville hot heat that builds in the best way possible. I went with the Hot level on the chicken tenders and it was spot-on — flavorful, not just burn-your-face-off spicy. The seasoning is next-level! We also got the loaded fries with their super sauce (so addictive!), creamy mac & cheese that was rich and cheesy, and a side of pickles to cut through the heat. Every bite was fresh, generous, and packed with flavor. The portions are huge for the price, so it's great value too. The restaurant has a fun, modern vibe with plenty of seating, and the staff was super friendly and quick with service. Whether you're craving a classic hot chicken sandwich, wings, or just some killer tenders, this spot nails it every time. If you're anywhere near Hacienda Heights, do yourself a favor and go! Legend Hot Chicken just became my new go-to for fried chicken in the area. Highly recommend — you won’t be disappointed! 🙌 Pro tip: Start with Medium if you're spice-curious, but trust me, the Hot is worth it. See you there soon!

  I had a great experience at this chicken spot! A young man named George helped me, and he was very nice, patient, and helpful throughout my visit. He made sure everything was right with my order and had such a friendly attitude. Great customer service like that really stands out. I’ll definitely be coming back
