We've been to this place many times. Friendly place. Great food. Generous portions. Affordably priced.
Always enjoy our meals drinks and service here. Stopped in for lunch one day for drinks and something to eat. In the shareable section they had nachos so we ordered them to share. The plate was huge and stacked high. It was enough for at least five people we ended up taking more than half home. We stopped in again on Thursday late afternoon and found out that Thursdays are taco night. I ordered the taco salad which was excellent. The taco shell was packed full with a lot of beef lettuce and tomato. I ordered mine without onions and jalapeño. Checking their menu out on yelp it didn't show the taco Thursday menu out so I added it to my review for other yelpers to check out as well as a few pictures of my taco salad. It was So Good!
I brought my 89 year old MIL to meet her 89 year old cousin for their birthday lunch. Roberto's is halfway between their houses. I had a gluten allergy and saw that the menu had many gluten-free options. My MIL uses a walker and has trouble with stairs. She was disappointed to see there was no ramp to get into the restaurant. There was a grab bar but only on one side and was still difficult for her to get into the restaurant. But she made it. The interior is plain. Not much decorations and can get pretty loud with a large lunch crowd. The 80-year-old ordered margaritas. The frozen margarita maker was out for service so they had margaritas delivered in pint glasses. I ordered the chicken piccata with gluten-free penne. There was a lot of food. It was OK. My MIL had the shrimp scampi. She said it was very good, but was disappointed to see the shrimp still had the tails attached. It was difficult for her to eat. Her cousin had a cheddar burger. It was very big, cooked as requested , and she loved every bite. We had chocolate pie for dessert and I had a GF strawberry shortcake. It was a treat to have a gluten-free dessert! Overall, it was good to have a spot between the two houses that also have gluten-free options. We probably won't return because of the stairs.
TL:DR - My experience was not good but maybe yours will be better. I was driving by and got enticed by the smell of their BBQ. I pulled in and first impressions were two fold: the parking lots needs lines redrawn because people just parked wherever and however, and the entrance is not immediately obvious. The entryway and waiting area are very log cabin, and you can tell from the well apportioned waiting area that this place can get crowded. If you're tall, look out, I had to duck more than once and definitely to get into the dining area. The dining area, unfortunately, really left the aesthetic behind and was simply white walls and ceiling. It felt like a cafeteria more than anything. All that blank space cries out for murals, log paneling, something. The dichotomy was striking, to say the least. My service was excellent, very friendly and attentive. Because I went on a Saturday, despite being lured in by the smell of the BBQ, I opted for the prime rib, medium rare, mashed potatoes and vegetable, with six wings Carolina sauce to start. Of note, there was no table bread of any sort, though the salad for the meal came out quickly. In fact, the meal pacing was on point. The wings were fine, nothing to write home about and not worth the price on the menu. The biggest failing was the entree. The carrots - flavorless, most likely canned sliced carrots that had sat in flavor leeching water for too long. The potatoes - flavorless as well. Butter, salt, and pepper later they were fine. Prime rib - cooked to medium well, it was tough like a pot roast. There was no rind to speak of, which left the au jus lacking robustness. Also, a little sweet, which I don't understand that trend. Did I finish it all? No, because I went to use the restroom mid-meal, making sure to ask the server where it was so she knew that's where I'd gone, and came back to a cleared table reset for the next patrons. Why do I say your mileage may vary? The BBQ I didn't try smelled excellent and there were many other options on the menu as well, so they may have areas of expertise I am not aware of.
The bacon pizza was excellent. The potato skins not do much. They were over cooked but luckily this doesn't happen often because they make the best skins around. I did take out and got the bacon pizza and the skins.
This is a very nice restaurant. They have a good size private parking lot. Enter by the bar on the left, or restaurant on the right. There is a large waiting area and coat rack at the restaurant entrance. Restrooms are between the bar and dining room. Bar side has a short bar to sit at just inside the door. They offer several beers on tap. A number of hightop tables are past the bar and around the corner, plus there is one long upholstered bench seat. The restaurant side is booth seating along the walls, tables in the center and a huge fireplace on the back wall with high ceilings. The menu is pretty big and offers apps, sandwiches and burgers, entrees, seafood, Italian, mexican, american. It's a mash-up. Their 'pasta' page uses the word 'al dente' in place of 'pasta' but the pasta my husband got was so over cooked it was literally falling apart. That should never have been served to a customer. If you are calling your pasta section 'al dente', you need to follow through on that expectation. The sausages smelled great and there were enough for another meal. The serving size is huge (see photo). My NY strip steak was excellent. It came with a side salad; romaine lettuce, red onion, cherry tomato, croutons with choice of dressing. Also included with the meal are two sides. Choices include baked, mashed or french fried potatoes, veg and coleslaw. The vegetable offered during our visit was fresh, boiled, sliced zucchini and it was cooked nicely; slightly firm. Very pleased with that. Fries are crunchy but the oil was probably ready to be changed. We would probably return except for the loud country music that played throughout our visit. If it were on a mix that included a few other styles, that's cool. The droning on and on of endless country music does not lend itself to a pleasant dining experience for us. Our waitress was excellent. My food was prepared well. Prices seem fair. Dining room, booth, flatwear, restrooms: all clean. If country music would improve your dining experience, I recommend this spot.
We had an event in Lebanon, CT. and before heading back to the hotel, we stopped into Roberto's for dinner. It was packed on a Saturday night and ended up having dinner at the bar which worked out just fine. Chrissy waited on us and she was fun, bubbly and took very good care of us. Mr. B. ordered the half rack of ribs as they claim best ribs in Ct. He said they were good, not great and were not very tender, but there was no meat left on the bones so they must have been just fine. I chose the Eggplant Parmesan. Great choice, but good heavens, it was enough to feed a family of four from one plate. I barely made a dent, but each and every bite was scrumptious. The spaghetti was perfectly cooked. The eggplant sliced thin, breaded well and the sauce over the top was thick and flavorful, with lots of cheese melted on top. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it. Lebanon is such a little town, but if you find yourself in the area, I think you definitely find a delicious meal at the Log Cabin.
Great atmosphere got there around 1 no waiting. The staff was excellent, our server came by about 5 times asking if we needed anything , she was truly awesome. We ordered the nachos she said it was big and it was like for 6 people and loaded. Price was very reasonable. Definitely would make a trip to come back again.

The fish tacos- very fresh & well prepared. Calamari salad - generous portions and everything was fresh. For dessert I had the happy hour Roberto's Famous Espresso Martini. It was fab! We'll definitely be back - a great menu with lots of variety and great happy hour specials. read more

Coming from another soccer match, happened to be in the area and had a bunch of reviews for this funky little shack in the middle of nowhere Always enjoy hunting for shacks, so have them a go. With the renaissance Faire in town, they had some decorations up and a couple rustic dishes on the menu. Her parents opted for the prime rib, and we did the blackened chicken penne. We also shared the French onion soup, cause that's one of their staples according to reviews Server was very friendly and helpful. Food came out promptly and drinks were always topped off. First things first, the portions are massive! The price is a little higher because of this, but you don't go home hungry. The Gigantic plates of nachos coming out from the kitchen gave me pause. The food was good, not stellar but prepared well. Pasta was just done enough, sauce was good and the spice level was good. Didn't get a lot of shrimp, but about a shrimp cocktails worth. They were cooked properly though so it was a good change of pace. The prime rib was tender but lacked any seasoning. Her parents are older, so they don't tolerate spices well and that worked for them. But I would've expected a bit more salt and pepper. The French onion soup was good as well. A lot of cheese and bread, not a ton of onion. It was good to try but a full bowl would have been a bit much. Overall, it's a great little spot to get a big meal at a good price. Isn't going to win awards, but you'll enjoy the meal and have plenty for leftovers tomorrow. If you're in the area, it's a good spot! read more

Can't say enough about the quality of the food as well as the serving size. The staff is always so welcoming and courteous! The ambience in the dining room with the fireplace is very welcoming as well as the bar area! The owner is very involved which makes for a while, done restaurant! read more
Unfortunately wasn't super impressed with my visit. We came in the middle of the week, and there was a wait for a table, which was odd cause it wasn't super busy. Service was good once we were seated. We ordered mozzarella sticks for an appetizer. They were alright, tasted like they were probably frozen though. For entrees I got the great American grinder and my friend got the Mac and cheese. The grinder was pretty standard, not bad, but nothing special about it. My friend thought the Mac and cheese was just OK. It had listed on the menu it came with bread crumbs, which it did not, and she said the flavor could have been better. However, we noticed they had homemade ranch they served with salads, wings, etc. which was delicious. Definitely a lot of potential, maybe we just ordered some not so popular items from the menu. I think I would give them another try. read more

Service was outstanding! The beef was excellent quality and cooked well although medium was requested. Price point was great for the consistency of the meals. Good value for your money. Black Bean Burger...staff was accommodating and turned it into a fantastic Salad!! Tasty w/ bits of corn, not overly done subtle and warm...southwestern flavorful. LOVED the warm open fire place...I WANTED TO COUNTRY LINE DANCE!! Come out and try them with me and let's cut a line dance rug! read more

Let us commence by dispelling one rumor that has circulated for far too long in the Windham, Columbia, Lebanon and Bolton corridor. No, the Log Cabin is not the birthplace of our 16th president, however the rustic building does date back to 1933 and there is a Hallway of History that serves to link the dining room and tavern. We were attending my sister-in-law's birthday celebration which coincidentally fell on St. Patrick's Day. My wife and I were the first to arrive so we directed our feet to the tavern which initially seemed overly dark. With 19 beers on tap and another 16 available in bottles or cans one might expect me to agonize over my choice of refreshment, but I came prepared having checked out the offerings online. My choice was a pint of Blue Point IPA while my wife settled on the house Chardonnay. Both served their purpose and were reordered later during dinner. After several minutes we were encouraged to join the family who had begun to arrive. Orders of Irish nachos (waffle fries topped with white cheddar, Swiss cheese, chipped beef and thousand emerald isles dressing), Reuben eggrolls (stuffed with corned beef, Swiss cheese, and cabbage with the same dressing) plus boneless Buffalo chicken wings were brought to the table. I found both the nachos and eggrolls to be good while I cannot comment on the wings because a few piglets wolfed them down like ------ piglets. Entrees included a few healthy choices as well as a corned beef dinner special, but my wife and I each settled on the weekend only prime rib dinner which included a baked potato, house salad and mixed vegetables. I questioned the server on the prime rib's arrival because it looked well done, but he assured me it was in fact medium rare and indeed it came within the length of a horseshoe of being so. Apparently, and I am only guessing here folks, the prime rib is sliced and then allowed to rest in au jus until served. The meat was flavorful and portion size proved to be more than ample so our dog will be enjoying leftovers for the next few days. Consider setting your GPS for Lebanon the next time you are in the mood for a scenic drive in the country coupled with a nice meal. PS the name of the restaurant is now Roberto's Log Cabin. read more
