Just left the bar. Went in for lunch with my husband. We went to the salad bar came back to our seat and there was a couple at the bar with a dog. Not a service dog . Just a random dog at the bar. This is the second time we went in and there was an animal At the bar. The time before there was a rabbit. Yes you read it right. A rabbit. All the employees acted as if it was normal. If you want to run a zoo thats fine. People should be told that random animals sit at the bar and the employees care more about the animals than the patrons. Its crazy.A rabbit? Give me a Fn break!!!! I complained to the girls in the front and they said at 4:30 we could move to the dining room. Mind you it was 3:15. Unbelievable!!! Service dogs should be allowed only! On the floor not up at the bar. GROSS!!! We will not be back!!!! read more

Just got back from visiting Ticonderoga. So fun! Went to eat at The Log Jam, an enormous restaurant in Lake George. With the Americade motorcycle rally underway in town, it was tough to find seating but the staff made it work for me and the tour group that I was traveling with. It's a nice, rustic-looking restaurant. The manager made the rounds to say Hello to us and he made sure that we were doing okay. In the interest of speed, I ordered a salad bar and the soup of the day which was Goulash. It was very good. The salad bar had everything I could possibly want in a salad and it was replenished regularly. The tuna Mac salad there was awesome. The salad bar is $15 if you don't get an entree or appetizer. Perhaps a little steep but I think it might be all-you-can-eat. As a petite person, I probably don't eat enough. From the window, I had a great view of the outlet stores that Lake George is also famous for. I had to fight to the urge to go shopping. Perhaps another day! We had a slight mix-up with the check for our table but the staff took care of the issue quickly and it wasn't a surprise because the place was really packed. Nevertheless, I thought service was really good. Thanks, The Log Jam. You had a log jam of customers but somehow you made it work. We'll be back. read more

I struggled deciding whether or not to bump up to 5 stars here. In my opinion the Lake George dining scene is woefully underwhelming outside of Barnsider and Log Jam (and obviously Martha's). That said, my latest meal here was definitely good, but not exceptional. I came with a large party and the service was great throughout our meal. I ordered the duck any my wife the petite filet. Prices were reasonable for this type restaurant. The filet definitely came back in excess of the advertised 8 ounces, which was a pleasent surprise. It was a great piece of meat and was cooked precisely, but lacked a bit in the seasoning department. The duck was good - and also plentiful - but a bit too fatty for my taste and the sauce was a touch too sweet. Salad bar was amazing as always with a very fresh and diverse spread to choose from. read more

Disappointing, and definitely not as I remembered it. I actually feel bad since I was taking family there for a "special" dinner. While the smells are still pretty good, the food wasn't. And the service was just ok....at best. What happened to this iconic place? read more

We stopped here for lunch on our way home from Lake Placid. I loved the Adirondack decor and down home country feel. We sat at the bar, and our bartender was phenomenal! I have some unique food allergies and they were able to accommodate my dietary needs. Their salad bar is included in every meal and it had a wonderful selection. I had the bacon jam burger which was very tasty. If you are in the Lake George area, I highly recommend you check them out! read more

It has been literally AGES since I last visited the Log Jam. I used to go fairly frequently when I first moved up here. I guess Covid deterred me the last few years.... knowing that there is still a salad bar available. While I'm not a huge salad bar fan, these folks actually know how to do it the right way. It doesn't skeeeve me the way most salad bars do. The quality of the food is also excellent! We visited with friends from out of town and had an absolutely lovely, delicious meal. Cocktails included! I was quite surprised at how good the lobster roll was and would absolutely order it again. Reviews from my meal mates were also glowingly positive. Service was impeccable. Pretty sure the next time they visit we will be back at the Log Jam. read more

Love our visits to Lake George. It's the most beautiful lake I've ever seen (I have a lot more to see but for now it is). One of our most favorite places to eat is The Log Jam Restaurant. From hand held sandwiches, entrees, apps and the best salad bar around. If you're in town - stop by and follow the bear tracks on the floor to your table. #thelogjam read more

We had an amazing memorable experience!! Rustic ambiance, great food and not overpriced!! They seated us in this part of the restaurant where there were all beautiful plants around the whole room. There were many rooms each had a different vibe. Our waiter was great! I ordered what he recommended and so glad I did!! It was delicious!! They have a wonderful salad bar included when you order an entree. Then for dessert they came out with a brownie sundae for our anniversary with candles . We had to make a wish for each other. That was such a nice touch and will always remember that! We will recommend it to everyone!! read more

Did research on places to dive in the area and felt The Log Jam restaurant would be nice. Reviews were good and the pictures mouth watering. I had my sights set on the price rib but was feeling little full when we went so I had a lighter dinner of scallops. Parking lot was pretty full but it's large so we found parking. Our party of three was seated right away. Seems the atmosphere is very friendly and several regulars were around. Servers seemed to have been there many years as well. Which had its ups and downs. Down part was they were overly friendly with the regulars that it took awhile for us to get waited on. Our server bright out drinks quickly but got my raspberry trees mixed up with unsweetened. Corrected it quickly so that was a plus. Salad bar was very nice. Not sure about any problems other Yelpers noted but we had a good experience. Salad we made was great. Our entrees came and the food was delicious. One of the few meals that all of us finished completely. We did however wait around for awhile for refills of drinks and to get the check. Our server was busy talking to others for so long that another server came over and cleared our table and thankfully brought the bill. Maybe he knew our server had a daily habit of over talking to others and neglecting the other customers. Our dining experience was great, food was great, just the end was a little lacking. Has it been a little stocker we may have looked at getting dessert. We opted to leaving and stopping at a grocery store to pick up some dessert to bring back to the hotel. read more

The food is good. Service and ambiance also great. Not sure why this place isn't rated higher. Our waitress, Caden H was very good and patient throughout the evening. The staff are all pretty friendly. The salad and bread bar that comes with the entrees is great. We enjoyed the meal a lot. Everything was delicious. read more

This is our second visit, I'm not sure if management/owner has changed but this was not as 'good' as last time. We had ordered prime rib and came out with about 6oz of meat on a bone. To their credit, the waitress called 'bullsh!t' and brought out a sirloin steak to compensate. The other steaks were half the weight as marked on the menu and grossly undercooked. The bug that sank to the bottom of the water glass, helped me decide to stick to the alcohol. The trip to the bathroom gave a glimpse of the kitchen, which was not a surprise. We were all disappointed and shall not return. read more

This is a Venerable Adirondack Restaurant with consistent food and highly trained wait staff! That's a very popular place so during high time in the seasons for summer and skiing, be sure to get reservations. Everyone enjoys a salad bar which comes with every entrée and appetizer. Check out some of the unique appetizers such as bubbly shrimp served in an escargot dish. Soups were always very good although they didn't have a burger on the menu. You can order it. That's quite filling. They do have two sizes for the scallops. I believe the small size had eight they were done perfectly. Many people are satisfied with soup and salad. They have a small selection of draft beers, including their own lager. They have small variety wines as well and specialty cocktails. Although entrées are a little pricey, the service and the ambience and the food quality are totally worth it on trees are served on old time pewter dishes. I've always enjoyed meals here and we're return when I'm in the area. read more

The salad bar saves this restaurant. I have been several times in the last 11 years, the food quality has been declining each time while the prices shoot up. By 5 pm on Fridays, there is a line out of the door, but I honestly don't know why. Avoid the duck with its overly sweet sauce and just stick to the salad bar. Bonus points for bountiful bread products at the salad bar! read more

The log jam restaurant is such a cute place that is very fitting of the vibe of Lake George and the Adirondacks. We came here for the fall and the restaurant was decorated to fit the season with leaves and pumpkins. It has a cozy feeling but it is a huge space. After ordering your meal, make your way to the salad bar with a variety of salad and toppings Service was excellent and our waiter was very accommodating despite how busy the place was. I actually forgot to order a clam chowder soup but I was able to mention it to the waiter and he brought me one immediately. The steak was delicious but the other menu items looks good. Keep in mind that the menu changes based on the season. I would love to come back here in a different season to experience the other menu items. A good tip is to call to make a reservation in advance as the restaurant was quite busy when we went. read more

We always stop by the Log Jam when we go to the Lake George Outlets. We love the rustic look of the place and the smell of the wood burning fireplace fits right in. They have best salad bar with all of the fixins. Everything is fresh and the breads are so delicious. My turkey club was very good and my husband had the beef barley soup with his salad bar. The soup a nice thick soup with plenty of beef and vegetables in it. Our server was Cohen who was excellent, he answered all our questions. We later found out that it was only his 2nd day working there. He did a great job. We will be back. read more

June 2026 We read some good reviews about this restaurant and gave it a try while we visiting the Lake George area. The building is in a outlet shopping area. The restaurant was dirty, bathroom, sticky floors and tables. Very dark lighting though out The staff tired 3 times to get our order correct, they were polite but failed. The steaks are low grade at a $42 price point. The staff was very rushed and overwhelmed. The menu has too many Items like Diner food. I gave it two stars because the staff was trying their best. read more

I have eaten at the Log Jam several times over the past 20 years. I am sorry to say this last time was pretty bad! My husband ordered the prime rib which was tough and flavorless.I ordered the duck which I could barely cute even with a steak knife. Flavor was iffy and texture rubbery. When they came to take away our plates upon finishing, we told the waiter and he just handed us the bill and walked away. read more

One of the most upstate New York restaurants you can find. Great food, Great Service and everyone is friendly. We will be back.

My favorite restaurant near Lake George. Worth it just for the epic salad bar alone. We went the evening before Mother's Day and it was very busy but the service was still excellent. I enjoyed a mocktail with beet juice and ginger beer. I got the citrus halibut for my entree along with the aforementioned salad bar (the breads and cottage cheese are especially good). Left room for dessert and had a hot fudge sundae which was huge and made with love. The decor is what you'd expect from a place called the Logjam. Looks like the inside of a log cabin. Clean and spacious. I will be coming back for sure. $82 for two drinks, two entrees (including an unlimited salad bar), and one dessert. Very affordable. read more

Salad bar is the best in town. Service has always been amazing, and did I mention the salad bar is awesome? Salad bar is fresh, has several options and the bread selections are so good. Menu has decent options and we tend to get sammiches and apps because the salad bar will fill you up haha. Dining room is rustic and comfy and if I'm in the area I love popping here for lunch or dinner. I highly recommend (the salad bar)!! Haha. Seriously the whole menu and vibe is perfect. read more

We went to Lake George for a quick get away and my Daughter recommended this place. Our waiter John Michael was GREAT! He had a wonderful sense of humor and made the experience a very good time. He gave us a heads-up that a tour bus was being seated next to us soon so we might want to go to the salad bar then. Good idea! The salad bar was very good and the fresh homemade bread was very tasty. We discovered that his wife works there also and she was the one who brought us our food. She had a great sense of humor also. My prime rib was cooked perfectly and my Husbands pork loin was delicious. Even with the big group next to us which John Michael and his wife were taking care of we still received great service and shared a joke or two. 5 stars all around!!! read more

Love the Log Jam! It's always I go to place when we come up to Lake George area, which we've been doing for many years!

We went for lunch and the menu offerings were extensive. I opted for the Reuben sandwich and it was very good. The salad bar was included in the price and I was surprised to see the number of items on it. It's definitely old school and fresh and delicious. Pasta salads, cottage cheese, many dressings, etc etc. Service was great. Prices were not bad. read more

We went with a party of 9 on a Friday night and they were able to accommodate us pretty fast. I advise to call ahead if possible. Our server was John, very attentive. He explained the menu to us very throughly. We never had an empty plate or glass on the table. Refilled our drinks right away. Our order was filled fairly quickly. While the food is being prepared they have a great salad bar to start with. You name it they had it. They had fresh bread which was ok but would have been better warmed up. I had the chicken velouté which is All natural boneless breast of chicken, seasoned & pan seared, topped with a sour cream & shredded potato crust, over a caramelized onion velouté. The chicken could have used more seasonings but was good. My wife had the stuffed shrimp which is Wild caught jumbo shrimp filled with crabmeat stuffing, baked in white wine and lemon butter. Served with a lobster sauce over rice. Everything was well prepared and worth the price. I highly recommend stoping by if your in the lake George area. read more

We ate in the bar area. It's a nice family atmosphere. We ordered the prime rib with mashed potatoes and gravy and each had the salad bar. The prime rib was great. The salad bar was awesome.

Lake George isn't exactly a culinary experience, the restaurants seem to squeeze by on mediocrity, but The Log Jam is consistently excellent food. The service is always really attentive and accommodating and the restaurant in itself is very nice (albeit very dark) cabin. The Log Jam, best know for its Prime Rib, should be a staple in any visit to the Lake if you don't want to go home disappointed with your food options. read more

Ok place, like the ambience, but it is a bit dark in some locations. My experience this time could have been better, I'll blame this on the waiter we had. To not at least make eye contact as you go by, is by far not the way to do your job! Good thing a young lady was assisting him, she did all the work of asking to remove plates as they were emptied, getting things for us as needed, and when I went to her, she ran for the drink that was never brought to my guest. My tip on this $138.00 was not up to par, due to this. I feel bad for her if they share tips, but I couldn't justify more due to that. I had Swordfish, and she had steak. All was just ok. This was my second time here, and one of her favorite places, but not one of mine. It's all about what your likes are! read more

I recently stopped in on my return leg from a Ski trip in Vermont. We needed a place relatively close to highways, that was open for lunch time on a Quasi-Holiday. We got there right at their opening time and to our surprise, they had already seated other diners already! We were seated pretty rapidly too. Our brunch got started right away because their salad bar is complimentary with all entrees! I love this concept. Food and drinks were great. We tried lobster rolls, salads, burgers and chowder. They were all good to the last bite! My only ding (and the reason I pulled a star) is the fact that our waiter forgot my order of clam chowder. So I had to wait a bit. Otherwise, the rest of the dining experience went smoothly. Log Jam is worth the visit but just needed a slight extra bit of attention to detail. read more

I've been to Lake George so many times and never tried The Log Jam. I think some of the negative reviews kept me away. Well, we were pleasantly surprised. Staff very friendly and the food was great. We went for lunch and had sandwiches, they come with salad bar. Who doesn't love a good salad bar? Haven't seen one in decades. The bar is very well maintained with staff. They are constantly replenishing and cleaning. There are chilled plates, rolls and tons of salad choices and toppings. We saw they had Prime Rib so we came back the next night. Damn, it was excellent! The mashed potatoes were heavenly! read more

I was in Glens Falls for work and our team had dinner at this place it was a beautiful log cabin with cute carved bears throughout the restaurant. The restrooms were small but the entire place was a but small but oddly enough space, felt cozy. Service was awesome, all servers every staff was great! They had salad bar with most entrees and let me tell you the salad bar alone is a meal they had fresh baked bread and fresh churned butter. Every topping you cab ever imagine including potatoes salad, kale salad which was delicious. They offered live lobster . I ordered the seafood pasta ot had scallops, shrimp, lobster with spinach, tomatoes and white sauce it was light and flavorful. We ordered escargo for appetizers and butter garlic shrimp. I can't wait to come back during summer. This was one of the best salad bars I've ever had. I highly recommend, thank you for your great hospitality. read more

Very busy place on the weekend. Wait time was 20 minutes. The building is rustic and dated. The French onion soup was just ok with lots of cheese and onions. The clam chowder was thick and full of clam pieces. Enjoyed the BLT. The pepper bacon was thick and there was plenty of it. The tomato could have been slightly thicker, the mayo sauce was delicious. The salad bar was as expected with fresh vegetables and a broad assortment of items. service was good. read more

Been to the Log Jam many, many times over the years. Always a good spot to grab lunch along our travel route. However, this last time through was very disappointing. I ordered the French Dip and salad bar. The soup was good. The salad bar was NOT. The salad bar plates are kept in a 'refrigerated' bin, but doesn't seem like the bin works anymore since plates were actually hot (maybe fresh from being washed?). The bread was stale. The lettuce was pale, old, browning at edges. The beets tasted/were spoiled. Disappointing to say the least. We brought my mother-in-law for her first time to the Log Jam and were embarrassed. Won't be returning since the quality of salad bar - out for everyone to see - made us question the freshness and quality of items in the kitchen for the other menu items. read more
