Logan Farms

We received a ham from them at my workplace (delicious) so we decided to try their place for breakfast. There’s a funny tongue-​in-​cheek sign that says their food is all homemade from scratch and it takes time. We understand that. There was one family of 4 (mom, dad and 2 little girls) in there who had ordered ahead of us. Yet it took 45 minutes for us to get 1 omelet, 1 sunny side up egg and a side of ham. My husband asked at the 30 minute mark and was told «it just takes time».
When our food finally came out, my sunny side up egg was still raw. Good hams but no thank you as a restaurant.

EXCELLENT SERVICE both on the telephone and while I was there. IMPRESSIVE, ORGANIZED, POLITE, AND ZERO PARKING & CHECK OUT ISSUES.
I am a food brat. This was my first ever buy Christmas Dinner ever. I always cooked for my family. So, I will be gentle, since nothing compared to what I can cook in flavor.
Turkey — honey glazed turkey (no, did not work for me) Actually, I asked for the Cajun, and did not notice I had Honey Glazed till I got home, so I was quite disappointed with that part and so… it was over $ 14 per pound, the meat was frozen, dry and honestly was more like a thick cut of lunch meat. Honestly, HEB & Kroger’s have better tasting turkey breast than this stuff. Come on! I thought I was getting something different… so disappointed.
Gravy — frozen… flat on taste… I had to add broth, and thicken it up. It was not tasty, sorry guys.
Cornbread Dressing — EXCELLENT taste, texture, nope, did not work, way too wet… actually was a lot like soup. Again, a frozen issue I am sure.
Green Bean Casserole — EXCELLENT taste, texture, no, did not work, way too soupy, and you can’t thicken that up. My son loved it. It was also frozen, so that is to be expected.
Bread — EXCELLENT taste, wonderful texture, nice job
Sorry to blow your charm Logan Farms, but you gotta get this holiday meal thing closer to the competition.
Cheers!

Excellent job on filling my thanksgiving order today!!! Thank you so much. Food is delicious

Absolutely wonderful customer service and great food! The staff here goes out if their way to make you happy! The food was hot and fresh and delicious! Very welcoming… we love it here

I stopped in here while waiting for my oil change across the street. I can only speak on breakfast since it was pretty early and that’s all they were serving. The people were friendly and the prices seemed reasonable. Everything was neat and clean. I ordered a classic breakfast with 2 eggs, hash browns, sausage, and a biscuit. It took a little while, but they do have a sign that says they make everything to order so if you are in a hurry to go to McD or TacoBell ;) My food was exactly what was advertised and quite tasty. I’d try them again if I was ever in the area when they are open.

Came here for the first time for lunch. Employees here extremely friendly. Greeted when we came in, assisted and provided recommendations since it was my first time there. I had the special which was fried catfish, two sides and salad and corn bread which was plenty. Their sides ranged from potatoes, mac and cheese, green beans, black eyed peas, some other veggies and sides. They also offer sandwiches which I wish to try the cuban sandwich next time. Good for lunch

This is what I get for trying to find a great burger in a place that doesn’t do burgers.
I heard about this place from one of the Unilocal talk threads, as one person was claiming this was the best thing ever. Apparently, this place uses akaushi beef, which is like kobe beef but supposed to have less cholesterol than even a buffalo burger. So yeah, my spidey-​senses are tingling!
I first tried going to the Logan Farms on 59 and Buffalo Speedway, thinking all locations had the same menu choices. WRONG. So I had to trek it back west to the main location here.
They advertise breakfast on Saturday mornings, and during the weekdays they have lunch specials. So not only can you get your ham/​turkey/​brisket by the pound, you can also dine-​in with a po-​boy or sandwich.
But I wanted to get the crown jewel, the akaushi burger. It was $ 7.50 with your choice of cheese, as I opted out of the fries. First impressions as the burger came it was that the bun was very big! Unfortunately, this played against the taste as I often ate more bread than meat.
I don’t know if the meat was ground fresh or was frozen, but I’m thinking the later. The patty was your thin variety, as it was cooked medium well, but there was no pink. So maybe you can help me out — is this a sign that it was frozen? The middle wasn’t fully cooked, as it was almost watery but not pink. I’ve been to other burger places where the meat isn’t fully cooked, but you can see the pink just like you would for a steak. This watery consistency really turned me off, as it made the meat not enjoyable.
I honestly had trouble finishing this burger, but I wanted to just to make sure it didn’t get any better. Even if they had cooked it well, I don’t think the flavors justify anything extraordinary.
And if you told me this was some kind of special beef, I wouldn’t have believed you as it tasted like a regular burger. I guess this is another reason why I don’t care when people advertise kobe beef because you lose all the marbling when you grind the meat and cook it as a burger.
Standard lettuce, fresh cut pickles, tomatoes, and some thousand island dressing also comes with your burger.
Also, they only have two choices with your burger — with or without cheese. No additional options or other burger varieties. They do have other sandwiches and po-​boys, but that’s not what I came here for.
So in summary, come to this place if you want your meats by the pound, but don’t come here just for the burger, or you’ll be sorely disappointed and kicking yourself that Burger Guys is just down the street (they serve akaushi as well).

At the 1960 location, I wanted to redeem a gift card and was told that it had expired. [no expiration on the card or card holder]. Called corporate and eventually talked to MR. LOGAN himself. When I asked how I would know the card was expired, he replied, «You wouldn’t». Bottom line: he would NOT recognize the card value. So — BEWARE. He made a 100% profit off of my employer AND ripped me off, also.

My husband received a frozen 10-​lb smoked turkey from Logan Farms, gifted by his employer for Christmas. We put our frozen turkey into our freezer upon receiving it (frozen). Our Xmas dinner at my sister’s house featured the same turkey as my brother-​in-​law works for the same company as my husband. We ate their turkey that evening. I was unimpressed with it and vowed to feed the turkey in our freezer to our malamute so it stayed frozen until a few days ago. Long story short, we found ourselves short on grocery funds and I decided to thaw the Logan’s smoked turkey and eat it, no matter how «blah» it seemed at Christmas.
I searched the internet for the best way to heat a previously frozen smoked turkey and then also consulted the Logan’s package directions.
It turns out that the Logan’s turkey served on Xmas eve was taken from the package halfway thawed, placed in a roasting pan, and thrown in the oven for 30 minutes at very high heat. No wonder it wasn’t very good.
When I prepared our smoked turkey this evening, it had defrosted in my refrigerator for 3 days. I completely disregarded the heating instructions printed on the package and instead double-​wrapped it tightly in heavy duty aluminum foil to preserve moisture and set the oven timer for 90 minutes at 325°. When the timer dinged, I removed the turkey and discovered it was still very cool at the leg/​thigh joint. I re-​wrapped it tightly and put it back in the oven for 45 minutes at 350°. That’s when the amazing aroma hit… we were drooling during the last 15 minutes on the timer! When I unwrapped it, there was a large amount of hot clear juices and, in retrospect, I should’ve let it stand for 15 minutes to let them re-​absorb. But we couldn’t wait to eat it. Still… when carving it up, plenty of juice was evident. This turkey was completely different from the one I tasted at Xmas dinner.
For the best, moistest smoked turkey ever, you really need to ignore the directions on the package. Wrap this sucker up tight in heavy duty aluminum foil and heat it for an hour to 1.5hr at 350° (my guess) or 1.5 hours at 325° followed by 45 minutes at 350°. If you can, let it stand (before unwrapping) for 15 minutes. This is, without a doubt, the very best turkey I’ve ever eaten, smoked or otherwise.
This rating is only 4 out of 5 stars because the heating directions on the package are not the best way to do it.

Have been a few times and enjoyed every visit. The Ham sandwich is one of the best I have ever had. The etouffe was damn good. I do like the sign inside that says We Cook Everything from Scratch if your in a hurry, their is McDonalds or Taco Bell across the street.
They do not have a drive through but the service inside is fast and courteous and the food is about as close as you can get to home made in a restaurant that I have found.

MOVE OVER AKAUSHI BURGER AND MAKE SOME SPACE IN FLAVORTOWN!
Unilocalers, please welcome the «honey ham croquette sandwich.»
after enjoying the akaushi burger on several visits i decided to come back for lunch. this time i was pointed to a small sign by the cashier with a couple new items they were testing out. my eyes fell onto the words «honey ham croquette», described as being filled with «avocado, bacon-​» my eyes stopped there. BACON? I AM IN!
the sandwich (i uploaded a photo) is basically a fried patty of their famous diced honey ham, with applewood smoked bacon, avocado, some sauteed onions, all in the middle of two waffles, and stabbed by a giant steak knife. anything with a knife sticking through it has to be good, yes?!
it was so darn good, it took my mouth to flavor town and my taste buds are doing the macarena! ridiculous! the sandwich is currently there for a limited time while theyre testing it out to see if its fit to go on the menu. get there and try it before its gone!
ps. they will give you a small form to fill out to rate how it tasted, if you fill it out after and give it back to them you get a free cookie! YEEHAW!

If you want anything ham, this is the place to go. I had the ham po boy with green beans on the side. The loaf was fresh out of the oven and the ham was tender and moist. Good place, at a reasonable price.

Neverevereverevereverevereverevereverevereverevere­ver get tired of the Akaushi burger. EVAR!
You should try it :) But Akaushi beef takes a bit longer to cook than regular beef, so don’t be in a hurry. In fact there’s a sign at the register that says «Our sandwiches are made from scratch, so if you’re in a hurry there’s always McDonald’s and TacoBell» I thought that was cute.
Great lunch spot!

I love meat. Yeah, I said it. And boy, oh boy, is the meat at Logan Farms ever delicious. I came here for lunch yesterday simply because of the mouth-​watering reviews I had heard about the Akaushi beef burger. Lemme tell you… I haven’t a burger this good in a very long time. Succulent Akaushi beef patty topped with 2 slivers of pickle, lettuce, tomato, chipotle mayo, and (wait for it…) 2 slices of smoked gouda. I’m a sucker for gouda, so that automatically upped the ante right there. The fries I could have lived without. Typical, run of the mill french fries. I accompanied my meal with a delicious blueberry brewed iced tea that was superb. For 10 bucks and some change? You better believe I’m going back.
Plus, now I’ve gotta get down on some of that honey baked ham. And the turkey. And the meatloaf. And now I’m hungry. Thanks a lot, Logan Farms.

I hate to do this, but the more I come here, the more inconsistent I find it. First time, burger was so delicious. Upon subsequent trips, I’ve tried the Turkey Aioli sandwich, which neither my bf nor myself found to be all that enjoyable, and then the burger again, which was not nearly as good as the first time. I’d say it was a fluke, but my bf’s burger was also lacking. It seemed like the meat wasn’t as good as we remembered. The red beans and rice was only decent, as well. Adding to the inconsistency, sometimes the food comes out really fast and other times it can drag a bit. It doesn’t seem to be based on «busyness» though, b/​c they are always hoppin at lunchtime.
Most recently, I tried that gumbo that visually appealed to me during my previous visits. I got a nice big bowl and the verdict was… eh. It was chicken and sausage, and it had a decent thin, darkish broth. The sausage did not taste good at all. My friend tried a piece and thought it tasted kind of hard. I left most of it in my bowl. The chicken was good, though, so I ended up eating all that. They served rice separately that was all right.
On the other hand, my friend had the Pesto Cuban sandwich and loved it! I had a bite and thought it tasted pretty good, especially the bread.
If I had to pick this place’s strong points, I’d say the burgers (when you magically get a good one), fries, peach mango and blueberry pomegranate tea and the Pesto Cuban sandwich.
I’d probably stay away from the Cajun dishes… red beans and rice, gumbo… as well as that turkey sandwich. I will probably come back here, but overall, I feel like I can only give this place 3 stars now. Sad. :(

If I had a nickel for every compliment I received for a Logan Farm’s brisket I brought to a party, I would be rolling in some dough!
My company gives us yearly vouchers for either a turkey, ham, box of steaks, slab of ribs or a whole brisket. I opted for the brisket, which looked fairly flavorful. Please be aware that this brisket and most of their meat products come previously cooked and refrigerated. But don’t be deterred by this, because once heated the brisket tasted like it was freshly made and had been smoked for several hours. Although this place is not cheap, it is well worth it for an effortless dinner that will make your friends and family think you were slaving over a hot oven all day. This place can make anyone into a master chef… or at least your friends and family will think so.

i’m starting to think whether or not I ate at the same place as the previous 3 reviewers because I had a totally different experience which unfortunately is on the unfavorable side. Logan serves a restaurant size burger with a very ginourmous bun. The bun I don’t think was sourdough, it had a sweet taste which I wasn’t very fond of. Also, the bun was not proportion right compared to the burger. The burger should be the star of the meal, not the bun. I ended up just taking the top bun off. Now, the burger, was over cooked. Not juicy and flavor full as the previous reviewers have mentioned. It’s very rare to find a place that does not specialize in burgers to have good burgers and now I know why.

Thanks to Edward W for his review. He was spot on the hamburger.
Juicy and sweet. I even ate the sauce that came on the side. Produce was fresh. My fries were colder than when i got a sandwich a few days before.
I also got a side fruit salad that was full of kiwi and pineapple.
To me this was a must go place in Houston for a hamburger.

Yeah, I actually went to Logan Farms on the day Edward W.‘s review became a review of the day. I hadn’t realized it until I saw the restaurant that I had been there before several years ago. I got in and had to try the new Akaushi Beef Burger that Edward had. The burger was unbelievably delicious! I’ll post a picture of it when I get a chance but for more about the Akaushi Beef Burger see Edward W.‘s review of Logan Farms. As for the the Logan Farms experience, it kinda looks like a fancy cowboy/​trucker stop; I’d say the restaurant is kinda like a diner or a drive-​in «order up» type of restaurant. A lot of the foods don’t look too colorful but sure are tasty! I’ve had breakfast here before and it tasted/​felt like an old lady from the country made it just for me, with love. You should definitely try breakfast or lunch here, it’s worth it!

FORGET Fuddruckers or Smashburgers!
When I saw Akaushi Beef burgers on their sign I had to stop in. Like the curious rat in me, I had to find out what it is. Now I am no beef expert but I was sold when they told me it is better then Kobe beef. I have never tasted Kobe so I can’t really compare but these burgers are the BEST tasting beef I have ever tasted. I ordered the Akaushi Burger with fries. These fries were homemade that was cut large just the way I like my fries because it helps retain the moisture in it. My Akaushi burger was perfectly made with fresh lettuce, tomato, fresh crispy elongated pickle slices, and freshly made pink mayo. The combination of the soft, doughy, sourdough bun fried crispy with butter on the inside with the beef plus mayo was heavenly. I have never tasted such a great combination. You can taste the yummy delicate beef, rich in flavor, plus a hint of mayo. The sourdough bun created a sweet after taste that lingered in my mouth. The burgers are man size. Because of this, I didn’t finish the fries with my combo.
I tasted the Akaushi beef by itself by pulling off a large chunk to sample. This meat was full of nutty, sweet flavor that was really delicate. There was no chewy, stringy pieces to the beef like most burgers.
I paid under $ 10 for my combo Akaushi burger with fries and drink. I couldn’t understand why was this superior imported Akaushi beef so affordable when Kobe beef is around $ 200 per ounce? Well, it just so happened that Akaushi cattles from Japan are being raised in Texas so they are more affordable. (Akaushi beef is a type of Kobe beef.) I really doubt that Akaushi beef from Texas is better tasting then Kobe beef from Japan when Kobe cattles are pampered like babies that includes daily walking, grooming, massaging, and drinking beer. Logan Farm also claims that Akaushi beef is good for your health too with a bunch of nutritional info. Well it’s just advertising to me, most things to me are only half truth and I never believe what I read unless I do the research myself. I just let my stomach do the talking. So far it is the BEST beef burger I ever tasted! I can careless on whether it is healthy for me.
I just couldn’t get enough of the homemade infused tea with pomegranate and blueberry. I drank 2 and a half cup of this because of unlimited refills. The other choice was unsweetened tea or peach/​mango which I will try next time.
I have been here in the past. Great place for lunch. Has a full menu of hams, turkey, and a bunch of sides that are cooked on premise. You can get a nice plate for under $ 10 that’s better than Boston Market. Food is always fresh and hot and the daily menu changes occasionally according to season. There is never a dull moment of fresh tasting food here.
They serve breakfast here on the weekends from 7AM — 12PM.
Buttermilk biscuits, French toast, omelets, Eggs Benedict, homemade biscuits.
They offer catering service from the menu and box lunches for corporate meetings. They also offer a great turkey dinner for Thanksgiving.
They offer free samples here before you buy. Their Honey Glazed Ham is absolutely, unforgettably delicious. They have Akaushi steaks and bison beef. I can’t wait to grill those over an open flame.
