Place was nice. Server was attentive and food was good. They were able to fit our group of 8 with hardly any waiting. I liked the pancakes. They had my favorite, sweet potato fries. Unfortunately I didn't care for it cause it was seasoned. read more

I had a really disappointing experience at Lumberjacks in Stockton. When my family and I walked in, we were not greeted at all, even though there were at least 10 servers standing around talking. After waiting, someone finally seated us. As we were getting settled, a male server who was NOT our server kept hovering over our table, pacing back and forth, and staring at us. It was extremely uncomfortable and unnecessary. That same server--again, not our assigned server--asked for our drink order. My boyfriend ordered a mimosa but had forgotten his ID. He is clearly well over 21 with heavy facial hair. I ordered a mimosa also, and my boyfriend took a drink. Shortly after, the manager came to our table and aggressively confronted him, saying he needed to present ID if he was going to drink it. The interaction felt more like harassment than policy enforcement. We ended up canceling our order altogether. Between the lack of greeting, the hovering and staring, and the way we were treated over a drink, the whole experience felt targeted and uncomfortable. As Black customers, it was hard not to feel singled out. We will NOT be returning!! Zero Stars!! But you need to put a rating to post a review. read more

Friday, December 19, 2025 Approx. 6:16 PM QUICK SUMMARY: Great restaurant, food & service. Will come here again. So, I had been going to Denny's in Lodi & Stockton for years, but that restaurant chain has gone totally down the tubes... sad but true. Therefore, I thought I'd give Lumberjacks a shot. PROS - - Within 45 seconds of entering the restaurant, this young dude named Mike guided us to our table, with menus and silverware in hand, served us water and informed us that our waitress would be with us soon. (If this were Denny's, we'd be waiting forever, and when we finally got our table, it would take 10 minutes just to get menus and then another 10 minutes to order.) Our waitress Rachel was very pleasant, energetic and took our orders right away. When the folks from the booth next to us cleared, Mike was cleaning up the table within one minute of its vacancy. NOTE TO MANAGEMENT: Give Mike & Rachel raises ASAP. - While we were waiting for our meals, I was reading some of the other Yelp reviews on this venue, and was surprised to see all the negative comments. Was worried that my order might be unsatisfactory. I ordered Ribeye Steak & Eggs and it was DELICIOUS, and the food volume was large, as advertised. What was also impressive was that once the steak was done, the kitchen staff brought the piping hot plate to our table immediately. (If this were Denny's, the steak would have languished on the pick up counter for several minutes until someone had the time to bring the dish to our table.) - The restroom was clean, which also means a clean kitchen and food storage & preparation. CONS - Like Denny's, the interior temperature was cold, meaning that management is trying to cut electricity costs. If the temperature in this restaurant was warm, I'd give my review 5 stars. CONCLUSION: One of the best remaining old-school family restaurants in Stockton. read more

I used to come here as a kid every single weekend with my family. Over the years, the food has stayed consistently the same as I remembered. The service was a bit slow since it was busy on a Saturday morning, but our server was friendly and as fast as she could be. Lumberjack still looks the same with a cottage/cabin vibe when you walk in with all the wood. I recommend trying their breakfast platters as they taste really good. They also offer early bird dinners. We got the special of the day which was a breakfast steak with hash browns and eggs. My nephew got a biscuit and gravy dish and added sausage. I do recommend trying this place because it is something different every day with their specials. read more

If you like big portions of food, this is the right place for you. The price fits for each meal. Love their seasoned fries and sweat potatoes wedges. We ordered 3 for party of four. The first server who took our order for our drinks kind of took a long time for him to serve our drinks. The second server who got our food order has to check on it and direct order him to bring it to our table. Which the lady apologize for the delay of service. The interior is the same old mountain style of interior. Now check out my pics and reviews. read more

Came to Lumberjacks for some breakfast! It has an old school diner vibe. You could picture a group of older men coming here as ritual on the weekends - classic diner! My biscuit with honey butter was the highlight - absolutely delightful- moist and a bit sweet.Eggs were good. I ordered 2. Presentation could use some work as they served it on a huge plate but no big deal for a diner. Service was okay. read more

Service was 10/10. Extremely fast service and food was delicious! Our server checked in on us after we received our food which is always a must. Portions are large enough to even share if that's your thing! Bathrooms were clean and they do offer a changing station. I enjoyed watching the owner jump in and support in all areas of the business especially on a busy Sunday. Appreciate your hard work and employees Lumberjack Stockton! I would highly recommend! read more

The three of us decided on Lumberjack's today. When we walked in I noticed everyone was enjoying their food and each other family style. We ordered and received really good service. Our food was really good and satisfying. My son suggested coming here because he wanted corned beef hash, my husband had the prime rib breakfast, and I had the prime rib dinner, it came with a salad bread and mashed potatoes. Our food was good. Happy customers. We will be coming back sooner than later read more

The reviews don't do this place justice. Had the sausage patties which were delicious along with biscuits and gravy which were also delicious. The server was quick and kind which is always appreciated. The atmosphere was nice, even though it was packed it didn't feel crowded nor overly noisy. Will definitely be returning to try their lunch! read more

How hard could it be to make biscuits and gravy? The biscuit was flavorless,like something you would make at home with Bisquick,and the gravy. The gravy just brown sauce with no sausage meat or Flavor of any kind. read more

It's been a while since we visited so we decided to stop in for a bite. The ambiance was nice and clean, they updated the seating since our last visit. We split the appetizer sampler, I had the fish and chips, and my wife went with the French dip. The food was good as always and came out hot but the service was slower than usual unfortunately we didn't see much of our server after the food and drinks were brought out... seemed like they might have been short staffed. Besides that it's still a good diner to get a good meal from. read more

The food was great. However, our server Kaylin; who was a nice server, but after asking for only a couple mins to look over the menu we waited for almost 15 mins to order. There was no rush or a mass amount of people walking in at such time. She waited on other tables and had a habit of always looking up and making sure her head was turned so she would walk past without noticing us or make any kind of eye contact. When time came to pay the bill we waited for about 13 mins before having to walk up to the front counter to pay just to get the server's attention who had waited on us. read more

Perfect service outstanding wait staff yes busy at times but don't have to wait 30 minutes at the most 15/20 minutes fresh good cooked food.

We had lunch today and it was good comfort food as usual. The only small problem was my hash burns were not crispy as I ordered them. About this time the waiter seated a family of 3, a very large creepy obese man, his obese wife and their teenage daughter. I heard the daughter order hash burns crispy like I did. I told my wife that I bet she don't get them crispy either. When their food arrived I noticed her burns were not looking crispy either and I remarked to my wife,,,see, not crispy ! Then this teenager yelled at me to shut the F up. We were so appalled and astonished that this girl would talk like that to someone who is almost 70. Then the mother started yelling at me to shut up over and over, yelling. I tried says that I did not get crispy burns either. Then this big hillbilly looking fat slob got up and started telling to go outside and fight. Wtf did these strange derelicts come from? The waiter heard all this and just walked away. I told this slob I wasn't going to fight over hash brns and then ignored him. They were the customers from hell. Wanted to fight inside the restaurant . What a posall over some hash . The lady manager /staff apologized for this obese creatures actions. I told them it's not their fault. It's a shame psych people like this are let out in public. I never curse but this time it's called for. The daughter's horrible actions are just a reflection of her horrible parents. The restaurant owner should review the film they have from the camera posted universe us. Then see how their staff did nothing. read more

Came to have a birthday breakfast/lunch with my son. Was asked if a table was ok but I asked if we could get one if the booths in the back. The male host told us that the back was closed, even though people were using the back area. Our server was really nice but she took too long to come back to take our order. The time to get our food was really long, but the food was hot and fresh. The BBQ sauce on the chicken sandwich was alright. Not something I will be getting again. The Hashbrowns were delicious and the biscuit sandwich was also great. Weill come back probably at a future date to try again. read more

Lumberjacks Restaurant - Smokehouse Chicken sandwich and Breakfast Buscuit - American Near Me - Stockton, California

Worst customer service ever. It took 10-15 minutes to get a seat (it wasn't busy), got cut in line, lady at the register didn't ask how many people she just simply asked what I wanted which I thought was rude. Sat down and waited another 20 minutes to get my order taken and an additional 30 for my food which was burnt and bland. I would suggest staying far away from this place as there's MUCH better options. read more

Lumberjacks Restaurant - American Near Me - Stockton, California

The service is TERRIBLE and the food isn't worth the wait. I came here years back when they first opened and the service was bad. Came back to see if it has improved, it got worse. Took 10-15 minutes to be sat (it wasn't busy), got cut in line, then took 20 more minutes to get my order taken and another 30 to receive my food which was burnt and basically inedible, very bland. I strongly advise you to avoid this restaurant as there are MUCH better options. read more

Visited 7/20/2025 Honestly, the food just wasn't good. Our French toast was horrible, I can bet it was just dipped an egg and thrown on the grill. The bread was also not good. It was supposed to be on brioche and there's no way they served us brioche bread. I'm a baker with over 13 years of culinary experience that couldn't have been fresh bread or even bread of good quality. We ordered chicken strips as an appetizer, and they brought them out with the rest of our food. The chicken strips were so hard that we could not eat them. It tasted as if the grease was not only dirty like they dropped them for too long in the oil as well. My mother ordered country potatoes and they were burnt on one side undercooked on the other and it seemed like there were multiple people in the kitchen and staff on hand so I'm not sure why the service and food quality was so poor. Eggs and bacon were OK. As for the cleanliness , the table was dirty when they tried to seat us, the windowsill next to us was caked in dust and ketchup. A couple walked in after us and had the same experience, they weren't greeted upon entering the restaurant, waited for our staff to assist them, When they were seated, they saw how dirty it was, and noticed the lack of service and got up and left. We should've followed suit and done the same instead of wasting time and money. I think the staff and cooks need to be retrained immediately and there should be more focused on customer service and quality control than the staff talking about how tired they are from their wild weekends. This was a really odd experience and I will not be back. read more

Ordered the big jack skillet and was given the blandest breakfast ever. Hard unseasoned potatoes with raw bell pepper thrown all over like an after thought. The gravy has to be canned. There was no flavor. The only thing that tasted good was the sausage crumbles. The coffee is acidic and burnt to where you can't even drink it. $8 for the coffee alone. Will not be going back. The service was bad and everything smelled like an unwashed dish rag. read more

I absolutely love the chicken noodle soup at lumberjack. I went there for my lunch break today because I read that they have chicken noodle soup every day so I tried it and it is really good. It actually tastes homemade. I have a feeling I'm going to be going there for soup almost at least once a week, especially when it rains. read more

I've TRIED eating here twice in the past week, and they are horrible at greeting their customers and seating them. I (singular guest) was sitting in the lobby for about 15 minutes. Waiting for a seat, a party of 4 walk in and they seat them over me. I know the staff saw me. Btw, Im dressed wearing shoes, shorts and T-shirt, and clean shaven, so no issues there. I'm disappointed this has happened twice now, I hope the owner, who I saw working back on the grill, will address this with his staff. I live fairly close too, shame to have to drive further for a simple breakfast. read more

I'm leaving a one-star review because of the long delay in food service. We came in as a party of six, and while our waitress Gabby was friendly, apologetic, and attentive throughout the experience, one plate did not come out and after about 30-45 minutes I canceled it because everyone else at the table had already finished eating. I'm not sure what was going on in the kitchen but definitely something to get fixed. read more

My mom & I had been wanting to try this breakfast place for a while now. Parking lot is large and was pretty packed when we arrived. We walked in and we're immediately greeted. Many tables and booths and a small bar area. We asked for a booth. My moms simple when it comes to breakfast. Her meal is always pancakes, scrambled eggs & bacon. Pancakes on a separate plate lol. Let me tell you... I've never met a lumberjack.. but if this is how they eat.. UNBELIEVABLE. My moms pancakes were huge! They also had a strong batter taste which neither of us were a fan of. She didn't order eggs this time she was full from the night before (Mothers Day we had an early dinner at her favorite place) Bacon wasn't too thick or thin and tasted good. I got a half order of biscuits and gravy & side of bacon. The gravy had like no sausage or flavor and the biscuit was really doughy.. I wouldn't order it again. We also got water and hot chocolate. I enjoyed how they had the half & half's at the table! Those are my favorite I like to sit and drink them lol. I also asked our waitress for extra bowl of them and she didn't mind giving her to us. Which was appreciated. The price wasn't too bad $30 for both of us. I do wanna come back to try their dinner. I'm just scared of their HUGE portions. read more

Ok so I'll still give this place 5 stars because the food is always good. I'm writing this review because this morning along with our meals I wanted a slice of pumpkin pie. I expected it to be maybe $5 for a slice. I couldn't believe it was $10 for a slice of pumpkin pie. I could have gotten a whole pie for that price, it's CRAZY. They didn't want to adjust the price or anything I was so surprised. We ate it so yes I paid for it. My advice, don't get a slice or ask the price. There was no flyers or menus given to us indicating the cost of a slice. I wish I took a picture of the pies it was noting to rave about. read more

It's a diner so I wasn't expecting anything fancy, but if my food order was going to be wrong and cold the service could have been a lot better . I was trying to get help and was ignored by multiple serves , for one to stop and just point at someone else to help me. The inside was fine nice and clean that's the one plus if I had to say anything nice at all. Go to bobs at the marina instead ! read more

I went to Lumberjack's and ordered steak and eggs for breakfast. I didn't want toast so I asked to swap it for two pancakes instead. I got the bill and steak, eggs, and hash browns with coffee was $28 and change. They charged me a $3 fee to swap my toast and $6 more for two pancakes!! My total was $40 and change. How did asking for pancakes take me from $28+ to just over $40? TWELVE BUCKS FOR PANCAKES?!?! What a rip-off... I'm not going back to Lumberjack's. read more

Only reason for 2 stars in lack of service. I went in there waited to be seated but no one came to get me a table or a spot. I sat down and waited but no one talked with me or anything. Three people got seated before i did and they had just walked in. Finally someone asked me if i have been helped. (I couldn't get anyone's attention no one was in the front). Food was okay. The maple syrup was stuck on the table sticky table. The service there is horrible. read more

Food was okay, IMO nothing spectacular. The menu was extensive so most should be able to find something to eat. Prices were a little high and you do get good sized portions but I don't think the dollar to product ratio was a fair value. My understanding is that also could be because of the menu selection, the more choices you have the greater risk of waste therefore the pricing might reflect the recovery of this but I don't think the customer should be paying to cover this. Our server was very friendly and prompt, she checked on us a couple of times during our meal. Would I come back, yes, but I would go out of my way to do so read more

Pretty bad service, waitress Rosa was been handed a tip by a man so she catered him first even there were many of us are ahead in line. Finally another waitress sit me on a table, waited for 30 minutes and then she cam, asked what i would like to drink. It took at least another 15 minutes of her to come served. Then the she took my order, and after another 30 minutes she came back and asked me again what was my order, so ridiculous of a long, long wait and to be served for such a bad food. Waitresse and server that day were so impolite & very bad attitude. Now I remember why I don't go to this place and eat. I don't recommend this place, it was bad and gotten wors! read more

First off I went on 9/13 about 6 pm and took my elderly mother. It was freezing in there and asked wait staff to turn the air down. She said the thermostat has a lock box and manager and only owner has a key. I asked if he was local and she didn't think so. How dumb is that not to give manager a key to the thermostat? I ordered a taco salad with beef. The beef was way too salty line the cook doesn't even taste the meat for flavor. The so called cheese was melted and mixed in. I wiould not call it a taco salad. We had to ask for tea refills. Needless to say, I'd give this place a high 2 maybe a 3 and we will not be returning. read more
