The Log House Restaurant and Pub

I was rudely turned away from this restaurant last night. I wanted to make a reservation because I was bringing a large party (nine people) to the restaurant. After calling, I wasn’t able to reach anyone behind the phone so we drove over.

Once we arrived, the place had one or two parties inside. The server insisted that they weren’t able to seat us because we were a large party without a reservation. The restaurant was not even half way full. We explained we tried to make a reservation on the phone but nobody was able to answer to which she replied there was no one working the phone today.

We offered a couple of suggestions like splitting up our group into multiple tables, taking food to go, even just half of us eating and the other half going to another restaurant. She had an excuse for every suggestion. Afterwards someone else came out and said they could seat us in 30 minutes. It felt like they were talking at us instead of to us. I left feeling unwelcome and upset about the experience. Would not recommend

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant last night. I tried to make a reservation for a large party (nine people), but no one answered the phone after multiple attempts. We decided to drive over, expecting it wouldn’t be an issue since the place was far from full—there were only one or two parties dining at the time.

When we arrived, the server immediately told us they couldn’t seat us because we didn’t have a reservation. We explained that we had tried calling but couldn’t get through, and she casually mentioned that no one had been working the phone that day.

We even offered alternative solutions, such as splitting into smaller tables, ordering takeout, or having part of the group eat elsewhere, but every suggestion was met with an excuse. Eventually, someone else came out and said they could seat us in 30 minutes, but by that point, the tone and attitude made us feel unwelcome and disregarded.

Overall, the experience was frustrating and disappointing. I would not recommend this restaurant.

We have a cabin in North River and have been going to the Log House Restaurant for almost 4 years. As a vegan I was always so impressed with the menu options - an eggplant dish, a salad with tempeh, a beyond burger - there were options. We went this evening and were told the menu was rotating and that there was nothing for a vegan other than a house salad (and trust me, no vegan/vegetarian is excited about just having a house salad for dinner, especially in an elevated culinary dining experience). Also, it didn't seem as if the server wanted to have a conversation about what the kitchen might be able to offer. This was the first time we have ever got up and left a restaurant. It is so sad as this was our go to - and now that Basil and Wicks and Bar Vino are gone, our little town is really struggling for quality food and excellent service. I sure hope you will take into consideration that having a plant forward item on your menu is a positive and to treat folks with dietary needs as something other than a bother.

Vacationed nearby. Beautiful place and view! Service great! Italian wedding soup very good. Mahi mahi way too salty to eat. Asparagus was excellent. Strip steaks were not cooked medium as requested. Both rare. No dates for bacon wrapped appetizer available so could not get that which we were looking forward to.

This was a real surprise how upscale the food was for the location. Pork loin and crab cake that we had were both excellent.

Had dinner there 8-8-2024. The roasted Brussels were outstanding. I ordered the ribeye steak for $40. It was cooked to perfection but the chef left too much fat and tendons on the outside. The steak was covered with a mushroom/brown sauce which was way too salty. The mashed potatoes were fine but the asparagus should have been trashed because they were so out of season and fibrous.i think the asparagus was left over from the previous wedding. I had a glass of Malbec that was just on the edge of turning bad. I was very disappointed by the quality which made this an overpriced meal.

We came here after a day of hiking and kayaking and swimming. What a gorgeous restaurant. We were seated a spectacular view of the mountains. Our server was great, and was really sweet and patient with our kids.

The salad was delicious, my husband said his elk burger was “okay” and my vegetarian risotto was really not good. It was bland and almost tasted kind of weird. Given our busy busy day, I ate some of it anyways. I pointed out that I hadn’t gotten my asparagus side dish, and the server said it was chopped up in the risotto - it was green beans and not the side that came with the $28(!!) risotto. I wish I had tried a different veg option, as the risotto just didn’t cut it. Generally, a great place, just really overpriced for the quality you get.

Such a neat, cozy place. It was a bit of a drive for us, we went to meet up with friends for dinner and it was amazing! Unfortunately we didn't get to stay there, but would definitely look into it in the future! The restaurant is HIGHLY recommended!!
