Logan’s Roadhouse

We always enjoy going here. Usually good service and good prices on the two fer. Nothing on the menu that makes me go WOW, but the food is good.

I have eaten at this Logan’s on a number of occasions. It is fairly inexpensive, the food is good, service is generally quick and pleasant and the location is not to far from Florida State University. It is a good place to get a very good meal with a short drive to the site of FSU basketball games so I eat there regularly with a dining companion.
I love their peanuts and yeast rolls. I could, and sometimes have, gone to the restaurant and eaten the peanuts, rolls, ordered a glass of Louis Martini Cabernet, and watched my dining companion consume a full meal of tilapia, salmon or the healthy chicken dishes. The wine list is not extensive but there is a decent selection. For a snack instead of a full meal, the chicken wings are also very good and go well with a glass of draft beer.
The bar is comfortable. There are a few TV sets inevitably turned to sports channels while folks sit around drinking beer, eating wings and chomping down peanuts. If this fits your description, be sure to leave a good tip. The servers are all friendly and competent and deserve to be compensated for their patience while you watch the game of your choice.
My favorite dinner here is the salmon. It is cooked perfectly – not raw and not overdone either. Accompanied by a serving of broccoli with Italian dressing, it cannot be beat for taste and is relatively inexpensive as well.
This is primarily a steakhouse so, perhaps, my choice of salmon as one of the better meals here is surprising but meant as a compliment. I have had a rib eye steak at Logan’s and enjoyed it very much, usually accompanied by sweet potato with butter and cinnamon and certainly not disappointed.
So, Logan’s is a good, dependable, inexpensive restaurant serving food which will delight most Americans who appreciate well cooked fish, steak or chicken. I intend to keep going back before or after a game.
Don’t pass up the yeast rolls though or you will regret it. Feel free to throw your peanut shells on the floor; Logan’s does not stand on ceremony knowing that their patrons love to eat the peanuts while listening to country music in the bar (and an occasional outlier with a glass of Louis Martini red wine instead of the draft beer).

Liked it. I had salmon. Perfectly cooked. No one in group had complaints. Due to the type of joint, it can get noisy.

First time at Logan’s for a private function. Due to this, we had limited menu offerings but unlimited sweet tea, unsweetened tea (for the barbarians), and water. Plus bottomless peanut pails and fresh rolls. Had a house garden salad with ranch, which was good considering it was a house salad with ranch, but it gave me hope since sometimes even house salads are indicators of quality.
Unfortunately though, the service was not great because it was obviously very overwhelming. There were at least 50 attendees and organization was lacking so the severs were getting the brunt of it. Plus the music kept pumping out and drowning out the speakers and any and all conversation. A venue more apt for work group meals or family reunions than professional events I think.
Finally, the reason I’m knocking it a star (since overall I’d give a 3 at this point) is my main course. A sirloin steak with a side of broccoli. The steak was too well done, to the point that you could switch out the burger in a bun for it and not notice the difference. If anything you’d think, my burger is overcooked. The broccoli was nothing special and just hung as a limp afterthought. Sad sad plate.

House peanuts were stale but were quickly replaced with fresh. No complementary wifi is quite odd. It was a group dinner event so the servers were very busy but polite. I love steak it was good. They need to refocus on customer service and quit focusing on themselves.

Against my better judgment we decided to eat here last night. The reason we go out on Tuesday nights is because most restaurants are slow to dead, and you’d assume that good, fast service would be easy for any server/​wait staff/​kitchen to handle. Man was I wrong! We get seated by the bar, and I guess the bartender was desperate for tips, because she waived off another waitress so that she could take our table. It took about 20 minutes to get drinks, and I think it was about 45 minutes after having been seated that we finally received our food. The service was just basically awful. Then I received my food, and what I received was not what I ordered. I told the server who brought the food that this was not what I ordered, and you would have thought I had asked her for the formula for the atomic bomb. Completely clueless, and utterly worthless wait staff. Gee, I don’t know, why not flag down a manager and rectify the situation. My mother-​in-​law ordered ribs that were burnt to a crisp. So either the wait staff didn’t get my order right, or the kitchen just doesn’t have a clue. I opted to eat what was brought to me, rather then wait another 45 minutes for the right food to come. I had chicken, and it was like rubber. Come on Logan’s, it’s a Tuesday night, and you had 3 of 4 servers standing around watching us eat, and they did nothing but crack stupid jokes amongst themselves. If you have that many people bored and on the clock, and not doing anything, the least you could do is offer better service. And having the bartender, even on a slow night, try and manage the bar, as well as waiting on tables, is a no no. She was utterly unprepared to handle even the little bit of business that was brought to her. I did their online survey, telling them about my experience; and if management should read this, where were you last night? You certainly weren’t busy, and you had a bunch of 18 year old kids with no clue running the restaurant. You truly deserve to go out of business if this is how little you care.

Really bad service! Sat at the bar while waiting on a table. 20 minutes until the bar tender even acknowledged me. Ordered a water and that took another 20 minutes! Hands down worst service I have ever received.

The food is really good. Unfortunately we sat in the bar area and had terrible service.

I love coming here for dinner on the weekends. They have the best flavored teas! I always get the mango flavored tea, bourbon salmon with the grilled mushrooms and, of course, they have their yummy yeast rolls. Excellent place to eat!

Worst meal ever. Ribeye was just fat and ends from prime rib and was sent back. Shrimp (prawns) were tough and tasted old. Will never return.

Visited here a couple of days ago and it did not disappoint! Logan’s has always had quality service and has always been clean and delicious. This establishment has great location, and provides a great meal after a day of shopping at the nearby Governor’s Square Mall. Waitress was however a little pushy and made the meal feel a little rushed which I is why I took away a star. Otherwise, this Logan’s is perfection!

We came here with a large, 20+ person party on a Monday night. Evidently this is the 4^th or 5^th time the organization has booked said event with this restaurant. You would think the management would have things ironed out by now. Nope.
The restaurant itself was relatively empty as one would expect on a Monday night at 8:45 — 9:00. We were ushered into the back room which was blocked off for us. There was ONE waiter working the entire party. It was not even close to being enough to cover the entire room.
We asked to order drinks and were told that food was being covered by the event but that alcohol were on our own tabs-​rather rudely. Okay, no problem. We’ve had a long ride and I still want a glass of wine. When the drinks were brought out, they were reached over the table and beers were sloshed over people and onto people. We were later asked to select from a small menu which was covered for us. Me and my friend next to me chose two sides from the menu, and when the salads came out were the only ones left without any. Politely inquiring why we were left out, we were rudely informed that we had picked 2 sides instead of a salad and a side. I didn’t know that was supposed to be the way of things. So we sat and watched everybody else eat and waited for entrees. I ordered another glass of wine in the midst of the salad distribution and was told «I don’t have my pad on me, I can’t remember that or write it down right now». What kind of waiter can’t remember and look when you get back to the computer to ring it in? I get it, you have a lot of people in the room. But come on.
We finally got entrees after what seems like forever-​I ordered tilapia and broccoli and mac and cheese. My girlfriend next to me ordered rice and broccoli to go with her fish. She was not informed that they were out of the rice until AFTER the plates were delivered (and she had to ask). So she could have had the salad after all. She was asked to choose another side on the spot and picked a baked potato, which came out cold. Yum. Nothing we had was particularly tasty but not awful either. The rolls were my favorite part of the meal. What also annoys me is the «auctioning» of food-​when waiters yell out «who had the tilapia and broccoli?» rather than remembering who had what or writing it on their pad, and handing hot plates across the table. Again, things got spilled.
When it came time to settle the checks, I saw they charged me and served me the wrong glass of wine, I’m glad I didn’t get that second after all. It was very apparent when he was handing out receipts that he was fishing for tips at that point because then he was very nice. In my honest opinion management should have been stepping up to help clear tables, take orders, bring out plates. Nothing. Especially when there was nobody in the restaurant. Very disappointed. Luckily I don’t live in Tallahassee nor frequent this type of place.

I actually enjoy coming here when I go to Tallahassee. Of course it’s a college town with 90% of their wait staff ranging in their 20’s. I enjoy the service and rolls of course. My sister had her 21^st birthday lunch her, and it was very memorable.

Good service, good food, fun atmosphere. Lots of screens for sports, but sadly no Sunday ticket at this location. Pretty good for a chain and would recommend over most similar chain restaurants.

As you can see from the pictures people have posted, they don’t actually do anything to the ingredients except cook them. The steaks have no seasoning. The broccoli is just steamed. Not even butter or salt. Flavorless food. IHOP is better. I wanted to like this place, because my name is Logan. But there’s nothing good about this place. It’s a big waste of money, for the most boring food you’ll ever put in your mouth. I was about to say «the most boring food you’ve ever tasted,» but there’s really not much to «taste» here.

i actually ended up here because i confused it with restaurant next door (miller’s). sh/​have known bar didn’t look familiar, but i’d only been to miller’s once. limited draft beers, did have bottled blue moon, newcastle. menu is very «steak house chain» type… lots of beef.
i had wings which were good, and 2 beers. total w. tip os $ 22.
service was good, bartender attentive, lots of TV screens.
if i was in the neighborhood i’d go next door though, it’s nothing special, more of the same. happy trails.

Everyone has a bad night, right? This must have been it.
The hostess was nice and quick to seat us. Our waitress said very little but was fast!
As for the food… blah. My momma has made much better using Walmart ingredients — I should add I have been a frequent visitor and order this meal many times before. Usually no problem. This time portions were much smaller and the Mac and cheese was ice cold.
The peanuts in the bucket looked more like a peanut trash bin that has been picked over by a hundred people.
Like I said… everyone his a bad day, right? This was it. Not sure if I will be back soon. Not the worst but there are lots of other options s.

The deliciousness of the burger took me by surprise.
I wasn’t expecting much other than a serviceable beef-​centric affordable meal during my visit to Logan’s. I left much happier than when I came in. The two Jack & Cokes probably helped too…
This is very reminiscent of another (the same?) old chain that was called simply «The Roadhouse.» They had a steak called «The Roadie.» Never has a cheap piece of sirloin been dressed up so well.
In any case, whatever its corporate origins, Logan’s does not share a menu with that other chain. They do share the practice of serving roasted peanuts as an appetizer in a metal bucket. Yeah, it’s one of those place. The OCD among us will yet again be on the verge of panic as we cry out in frustration at why we were not provided a bucket for shells! The peanuts, are, of course, good and a terrible way to fill yourself by absently cracking and eating them while chatting.
Our server was very friendly and efficient. He knew what he was doing, checked on us frequently, and all around was a professional young man. Bravo.
The menu mostly consists of pricey steaks, with some cheaper cuts mixed in. There are also a few salads and chicken dishes. I am budget-​conscious (i.e. cheapskate) so not wanting to spend $ 25 on a steak nor $ 14 on a sirloin «steak» I opted for the burger.
As I recall, this isn’t a complicated decision as it is at, say, Ted’s Montana Grill. There seemed to be only one main burger. I think it was called something like «The Roadhouse Burger» (go figure) and came in at around $ 8.50. When the burger came out it was nice and big (around ¾lb is my guess) and had a big portion of fries that were good and crispy, if not very memorable. The burger had bacon and cheese on top, with toppings of lettuce, tomato, and pickle off on the side.
Finally, I will mention that dessert might should be an option here. One of my fellow diners had a piece and let me try it. VERY good, though probably frozen. One of those nice big Olive Garden pieces of sugared goodness.
All-​in-​all, Logan’s is nothing to write home about, BUT it is very solid for a low-​end steakhouse and I personally would choose it over the adjacent Miller’s Ale House (check out my Unilocal review) any day.

I’ve been to Logans several times now — dinner and lunch. This is the type of place where people throw peanut hulls on the floor. (that is nasty) What prevents me from going there — besides some of the food– is the service. Having a limited time during lunch, most restaurants around the state buildings try to be timely. Don’t go in and expect to be out in 45 minutes. (have to allow for back and forth travel time.)
The hamburger buns were horrible, tasting like they had been left out overnight. The sweet potatoes were way overdone (at noon) which tells me that they too may have been left over from the night before. Fries were limp and cold for two people, hot and crispy for the third. My chopped steak was overdone and the onions/​mushroom mix at a dollar more was overpriced. The salads were fresh, with iceberg lettuce, onions, tomato and croutons.
The manager was nice and gave us $ 5 Logans bucks for a future visit. I passed mine along to someone that will use it. I won’t be needing it.

I have come here many times in the past. Those golden rolls and the sweet butter keep me coming back. This time I went for lunch and was highly disappointed. My fault I guess, I went here on St. Patricks Day. I was trying to avoid long waits but they found me. This was strange because I could count 3 tables being served at 4pm. First the door has three chatty servers — chatting. It took (seconds) too long for them to notice that I was waiting for someone to take my order.
Off bat I decide this would be a to go order: Meatloaf, broccoli, loaded mashed potatoes. I’m thinking — meatloaf can;t be made to order and everything else should take maybe 5minutes. Well 30 minutes later I receive my food?!? So for 30 minutes I listen to 3 chatty chicks discuss every patron that had already came in during their shift, one employee being a hoe, and every so often they would ask each other «how long as she been here?» But NONE ever approach the kitchen about the wait or explained to me what was taking so long.
Get back to work late and finally get to look at my food. No clue why everything is wrapped in aluminum foil? My salty meatloaf was wrapped, my undercooked baked potato was wrapped, and my over cooked and greasy steamed broccoli was wrapped in foil?
I have no way to explain that C– service and quality of food that I received because I know they are NORMALLY much better then this. But it was bad enough that I have no need to return.
