Logan's Roadhouse — Restaurant in McAllen

Restaurant Review: Logan's Roadhouse - A Symphony of Culinary Brilliance

Upon entering the hallowed halls of Logan's, one is immediately transported into a realm where culinary artistry and gastronomic grandeur converge. Nestled in the heart of the city, Logan's is a sanctuary for the discerning palate, a bastion of culinary finesse that promises an unforgettable experience.

This evening, I had the singular pleasure of indulging in the pièce de résistance of their menu: The Logan's Lobster Tail and Shrimp Combo. As the dish arrived, it was as if the sea itself had been summoned to our table, draped in a tapestry of vibrant colors and tantalizing aromas. The presentation was a masterclass in sophistication, a harmonious tableau that set the stage for what was to come.

The first bite of the lobster tail was a revelation. Each succulent morsel was imbued with a subtle smokiness, a whisper of the ocean that lingered on the palate with an almost ethereal delicacy. The flesh was tender, yet firm, a perfect testament to the chef's deft touch. It was as though the lobster had been plucked from the depths of Neptune's domain and kissed by the flames of Hephaestus himself.

Accompanying this oceanic marvel were the shrimp, each one a gem of the sea, cooked to perfection. They were a symphony of flavors—sweet, briny, and with a hint of garlic that danced on the tongue like a waltz in the moonlight. The shrimp, cloaked in a velvety beurre blanc sauce, were nothing short of divine, a celestial experience that transcended mere sustenance and entered the realm of the sublime.

The dish was complemented by a delicate asparagus spear, lightly charred and seasoned to perfection, its crispness providing a delightful counterpoint to the lusciousness of the seafood. A drizzle of lemon-infused olive oil added a touch of brightness, elevating the dish to heights previously unimagined.

In the grand tapestry of gastronomy, The Logan's Lobster Tail and Shrimp Combo is a masterpiece, a magnum opus that stands as a testament to the chef's unparalleled artistry. Logan's has not merely crafted a meal; they have conjured a symphony, a dance of flavors that transports the diner to the zenith of culinary ecstasy.

In the words of a humble food critic, this dish is nothing less than a transcendent experience. It is a reminder that true artistry lies not just in the complexity of the ingredients but in the passion and love with which they are crafted. At Logan's, one does not merely dine; one embarks on a journey, a pilgrimage to the very heart of...

My husband and I went today with our 5 year old and 7 month old. At first things were going great. Waitress was nice. However, once my food arrived, the steak wasn't cooked how I specified (well done because I planned to share a finger sized piece with my 7 month old to gnaw on. It was at best medium rare). The shrimp was also cold and very offputting. My husband very kindly told the waitress the problem, and the entire time the waitress said nothing. Once we finished telling her, she just said, "Do you need anything else?" And when we said no, she just left. A simple "I'll take care of that for you" would have sufficed. Instead it made us feel as if we were annoying her or inconveniencing her. Some time later, a gentleman came with my food. Didn't say anything except to check the meat. I did, and it was fine, so I thanked him. He didn't say anything. Asked if we needed a refill, to which my husband said yes. He took his cup and left, returned again with the refill and still didn't say a single word. No "no problem" or "my pleasure" or "sorry about that", NOTHING. Both these people left such a sour taste to my evening. The man was an older man, short, white hair, not sure if it was a manager or cook since they never said anything. But one thing is for sure. We will not be returning again. What a joke of a restaurant. Only reason I'm giving it 2 stars vs 1 is because my husband's food and my daughters...

This is the Logan's Roadhouse on North 10th Street, north of Trenton Rd. So, the last time I ate here I wrote about a cold food experience. After a year and trying it again, I am sorry to say it was another cold food experience. My friend and I went for dinner, he ordered Sirloin steak and Shrimp, and I ordered Salmon and Shrimp. Entrees come with a choice of sides, I ordered green beans and broccoli. My friend ordered rice and mac and cheese. We added dinner salads, sauteed mushrooms, and grilled onions to our orders. The salads arrived first along with their signature dinner rolls. We enjoyed the rolls they seemed just baked. Our salads were super fresh and who doesn't love crispy Lettuce. Our entrees arrived and right away you could notice the freshness stopped there. My canned green beans were cold and flavorless, the mushrooms were cold and old looking, and the onions did not have the appearance of being grilled .The broccoli was green but was cold and mushy. My friend's rice was cold and so was the Mac and cheese. On another positive note, the Salmon was cooked perfectly as was my friend's steak, and the shrimp had good flavor. A manager did check on us, and I informed her that certain items were cold, she shrugged her shoulders and said she would let the kitchen know and left, but she didn't go to the kitchen. I don't think I'll ever go back to Logan's ever again and I do not...
