The Log Cabin Restaurant — Restaurant in Warwick Township

Would give a Zero. They wouldn't seat us after driving hours to be in the area and looking for a place to eat. Was told the bar was full too and there was one couple sitting and tons of seats around the bar empty. Guess they didn't want to serve us. Asked for a recommendation of somewhere else in the area ..didn't get any. Found somewhere else and other people told us that they were "weird" at this restaurant & others had similar experiences. Was treated well elsewhere. Never go here.

So just to clarify I did ask if we could sit at the bar and I was told the bar was closed because it was full but there were only two people sitting down. We would have been glad to wait and that's why I suggested sitting at the bar to have drinks first but I was told it was closed and the great part is I had a witness who was with me and heard the whole thing. If I had been asked to just sit at the bar instead of being told that we couldn't then maybe the situation would have been much different. But since I was told there was a staffing issue I didn't realize the facility was closed the general public because there were no signs outside indicating that. I've also been treated much better at places that we've walked into off the street in other places like New York City where a main entree starts at prices much higher than the highest thing on your menu where prices typically aren't even listed and had much more respect, clarity and assistance. But I digress because I realized this establishment was not of that caliber.

That's why I didn't realize that reservations would be necessary being in such a small town. But we were able to go to a different restaurant who validated our experience as well as the patrons there and I imagine many of us went there who could not be served at this establishment. We got excellent service, timely service, did not have reservations and they were full too but their tables were actually full as well as their bar but they still found a way to get a seated that's what customer service looks like. I've also never seen someone Reach Out publicly and counter argue with someone who did not get customer service because arguing is not actually remeding the situation. It was my mistake to think that I was going to somewhere that seems like it had reasonable accommodations and could accommodate a couple of two celebrating an anniversary after many hours of driving and not knowing where we would be able to stop for a meal. The lesson and mistake was mine but I tend not to repeat my mistakes. The other establishment was more than happy to take our money and when we have our celebration I imagine they will accommodate all the people that may attend my next big event. I hope the other parties that were going on got better service than the Thai we were receiving right from stepping in with the most bizarre disorganized coat check I almost didn't get my coat back. But that should have been my first red flag but it will be...

We had a wonderful evening at the Log Cabin and the highlights included Max our server, the setting, which could not have been more perfect, and the food was fantastic. Every dish including the halibut, salmon, and the New York strip were flawless. In the resplendent realm of epicurean delights, the briny raw oysters, which provided the opening act, were served and enjoyed exactly as Max described them. Each was cradled delicately upon its pristine half shell, unveiling a symphony of oceanic opulence that danced upon the palate with a graceful finesse. This gastronomic masterpiece, a testament to the sea's bounty, beckoned us on a voyage of sensory exploration. As each glistening gem was lifted to our lips, a tidal wave of freshness cascaded forth, an ethereal essence that encapsulated the very soul of the ocean. The initial encounter was an ambrosial union of the sea's salinity, an undulating undertow of pristine brininess that caressed the taste buds in a serenade of maritime allure eliciting the sensation of a mercurial kiss from the ocean's depths, an ephemeral embrace that lingered like a whispering tide—a sensory verse that lingered, not wanting to depart and then quickly enticed us to embark anew on the gustatory odyssey that is the briny raw oyster on the half shell. Just as Max described. The 21-day dry-aged New York strip was without exception. The exterior revealed a flawlessly seared crust, its bronzed countenance concealing the promise of succulence within. Upon the first tantalizing cut, the knife glided effortlessly through the steak without a whisper, unveiling a velvety reddish-pink interior that signaled the pinnacle of culinary craftsmanship. A mosaic of caramelization graced the surface, a testament to the chef’s understanding and control of the Maillard reaction that imparted a symphony of complex flavors. In its medium-rare perfection, this steak transcended mere sustenance, beckoning me into a realm where every bite was a celebration of the carnivorous sublime—a testament to the artistry of preparation and the primal allure of a superbly cooked New York strip steak. The halibut and salmon were equally well prepared and are not to be easily forgotten. Each, a culinary diva, embodied the epitome of aquatic sophistication, inviting my wife and daughter into a realm where every bite was a revelation and every flavor note an ode to the ocean's bounty. Each presented a gastronomic symphony, where the virtuosity of the chef and the purity of the sea converged to create an unforgettable epicurean experience. The desserts were a symphony of sweet enchantment. Each presented, was a masterpiece of culinary artistry and unfolded with an elegance befitting the grand finale of a culinary opera. These, like the oysters, were also exactly as Max described them and just...

Very nice atmosphere, especially with the jazz trio playing in the reception area. Service was not commensurate with the prices charged. There was a mix up with my wife’s drink. She ordered a Tito’s martini and knew that it wasn’t Tito’s right away. She mentioned it and the manager brought her a new drink and mentioned a mix up with a beefeaters martini being served. The manager was very busy serving so I imagine they were slammed or short staffed. I had a house special drink, a form of margarita, while very tasty had an off smell. It could be the use of egg whites? If the smell wasn’t present I would have made it two. We were off to a slow start but placed our orders. I had oysters to start and I’ve had better. They were a bit flabby and inconsistent in taste from one oyster to the other and didn’t really match the description. $25 for 6 oysters. Additionally, I had asked for a glass of white wine with my oysters and had to remind the waitress to get my wine. Little things like that kept popping up through the meal but for over $200 for two I expect better. The focaccia was excellent, airy and crispy with hints of rosemary. Probably the best item I was served. The French onion soup came next and it was good. Not the best I’ve ever had, but good and I would order it again. And again, my drink, a beer needed a reminder with my meal. Next came the main course, I had the pork shank, described as Osso Buco. I loved the flavors of the accompanying medley it was served on but I found the meat a bit dry. I thought the grits were a bit hard to find as well, but overall not bad. My wife ordered the filet and has now given up on trying to get a filet served at the right temperature. She wanted it pink and warm in the center and it came out red and cool in the center. She sent it back to be refired and even the second attempt failed, but she just gave up at that point. The baked potato was the best part of her meal along with the accompanying veggies. The promised steak sauce never made an appearance. Dessert and after dinner drinks were fine but beware the pricing on the Port. There is none and the waitress described the selections without pricing. The first one was $60 and the rest were $12 after I asked. Throw a couple of $20-$30 glasses in there for a better and more balanced selection. So, overall the food was good(3 stars), if not overpriced, service was average, and the atmosphere was nice, but nothing lived up to the...
