This being a roadtrip this time around I took advantage of the full kitchen versus using my camp stove. With both fructose and lactose malabsorption it's very comforting to cook for myself. And having access to a full kitchen allowed me to make a rice and steak dinner and then in the morning make a cup of rice for the road, plus hard boil chicken and duck eggs I gathered the day prior. The duck eggs were fantastic! Just like in 2023, the Cajun jam night on Wednesday didn't disappoint. Such great music and wonderfully friendly people. One experience I was hoping to relive from 2023 was the ghost encounter in the balcony room; ghost sat on my feet! Unfortunately this go around in 2026, no ghost experience so just be aware there is a spirit, albeit a friendly spirit, inhabiting the Blue Moon. This isn't just a place to stay but a place to experience. We look forward to coming back.

I can't find my ID so the bouncer asks why I don't have it and I mentioned I was in town because my mom died and must have left it at home , he then laughed and I told him this was not funny then left in tears. The next day my friend & I go, we have 1 round then the bartender cuts my friend off for no reason despite only having 1 drink and kicks him out for being black. He was the only person of color in the bar. To make matters worse she then charged an unauthorized $10 tip to his card. This bar is horrible, I went back for nostalgia but will never go again

Very hard to get service as the music was too loud and the bar tender couldn't hear us. Finally placed an order and got our drinks then just sat. Waited and waited for our food, asked about it multiple times, were ignored. Finally saw our food sitting on a back counter but no one brought it to us. When I finally went to the counter and asked if we could get our food was told "It's not my job to serve food". I had to ask to be given the food and brought it to our table myself. By that time the food was over cooked, cold and the cheese on the hamburgers had hardened again due to the cold burgers. Not what I would have expected of Legends. Very disappointed.

The grilled octopus was the best I've ever had. It was incredibly tender with a perfect char, and the sauce had an amazing balance of rich umami flavor and acidity. Surprisingly, one of the highlights of the meal was the charred green onion. I never expected an onion to stand out, but it was packed with smoky, sweet flavor. The pork porterhouse was cooked perfectly and had excellent flavor. My only minor critique was that the mint on the zucchini was a little stronger than my personal preference. Overall, it's not quite a 5-star experience for me because a few menu items don't quite justify their price. Even so, the attention to detail in both the food and service really stood out. Vestal is a beautiful restaurant, and it's one we'll happily return to whenever we're in the Lafayette area.
