Lumberjacks

We dined here for breakfast on Valentines Day and there were people already waiting to be seated. The hostess notified us that it would be a 15 minute wait and we only waited about 10 minutes. I thought the food was great. I had the California Omelet and everything tasted great and was hot. Daughter had the Axemans Griddle Sampler which includes eggs, bacon, sausage, 3 mini pancakes, and a slice of french toast and banana walnut french toast. Yeah, she took most of it home. Hubs had the meatlover’s scramble with a side of biscuit and country gravy. I appreciated that they had all of the condiments already on the table instead of having to flag down a waitress for every possible thing that I would like to tailor my food to my specifics.
I broke out my crossword puzzle book and me and the family did that while waiting for our food. It seemed like it came quickly as we were kind of annoyed when it got there. Go figure, we like doing crosswords. I was pleasantly surprised as I hadn’t eaten here before even though living in the area for the past 15 years. I will definitely be going back for lunch and dinner to see what they have to offer. Whilst looking over the menu, they have a lot of offerings no matter what you may be in the mood for. I plan to try their chili for lunch and pot roast for dinner soon. They also have various soups, salads, wraps and dinners your grandparents would’ve been eating in the 50’s and 60’s. Its worth a visit for an extended family meal.
I gave four stars because after we finished our meal it took a considerable amount of time for us to get the check. I hate being held hostage with empty plates in front of me after I’ve finished my meal. I like to get the check and get gone.

1200 Saturday visit– First impression– Décor: torn up upholstery on bench seat, hole in corner window. Overall look is fairly clean. Service — good– waitress overloud but attentive and responsive– good attitude. Food: meat skillet– asked for no ham, extra sausage– got just bacon. Waitress brought out small dish with sausage crumbles. No seasoning– oil base had stale flavor. Cheese in an unmelted chunk on one side. Husband got 4 egg Jacks omelette – we must be used to Costco sized eggs because the omelette looked very small:) meat filling overcooked, eggs completely cooked before filling added– cheese in a pile on one corner– no seasoning discernible. Biscuit was ginormous and ok. $ 28 for mediocre breakfast meal! Won’t return which is too bad — place has great potential but fell short of minimum expectation today.

Food is amazing! Service is extremely poor. We ordered our food. Mind you it was for three. The couple who came after us by 10 minutes received their food before us. Would never recommend this place to anyone in Vegas!

Ok so let’s just say the first franchisee ran it to the ground fast. Then they sold it to another franchisee. They couldn’t regroup so. The Corporation took Control of it again. Thank you Lumberjacks for making it better. We were your very first customers at this location. Welcome Back. Thank you.

Right off the plane and ready to eat some breakfast!
My father lives in North Las Vegas and this restaurant is right up the road about 10 kinutes away so it was perfect.
We got in pretty early around 7 am and was sat right away, the atmosphere and interior is very woodsy and matches the name of the restaurant to the tee!
There was only 1 server working in the entire restaurant and she had maybe 2 current tables but she was a hustler and moved pretty quick around the restaurant with refills and food delivery. I was surprised no manager was on the floor assisting.
The menu was fairly large and too much to scan so I went ahead and ordered the special that was posted out front Steak & Eggs for $ 9. Steal!
When the food was delivered I was very pleased with everything except for my steak. It looked to have been cooked only on one side, I ordered it to be Medium but when I got it and cut it open it was very rare, as if they just flopped it on for a bit and maybe even microwaved it. I was not impressed I decided to just try and eat some of it but could no longer bare it so I let the server know and she went ahead and requested for a new one. The one thing that I will give them a fail at was instead of changing the entire plate out they cooked the same steak I had already eaten some of and re-​cooked it and just added it to the same plate did not change the plate. I noticed it still had blood from the last plate so it was the same plate.
Will probably give them a try again, my dad really likes the French Toast maybe I’ll stick with the regular menu instead of the specials!

There are a lot of options to choose from. My order was barely warm and the price was a little more than expected. I don’t really see myself heading back.

It would’ve been 5 stars, but service was a little slow. I had the Griddle Sampler which I thought was excellent. I love the atmosphere. The décor is really nice. My partner had a classic two eggs breakfast and he enjoyed it. Like I said, if I didn’t have to wait for a refill on my water it would’ve been a 5 star experience. Especially because of the fact that it wasn’t busy at all.

So disappointed in my experience yesterday. I ordered the Cinnabon French toast breakfast and French vanilla cappuccino. The waitress was all giddy when she brought my cup, she says «oh you’ve got some goodies in there» I was like wtf? So I took a few sips and I was offended immediately with Christmas shaped candy sprinkles? What am I 5 years old lady?! It was annoying as with each sip I had to chew these overly sweetened floaties, these imposters didn’t belong in my beverage. I told my waitress and she’s like «You don’t like it? A no, I don’t like it, it makes the coffee way too sweet. So she brings me a regular cup which was bland, she should have brought me a new cup of what I ordered, needless to say my beverage experience was ruined.
Then alas my breakfast shows up, and was disappointed yet again with burnt edges on my «Cinnabon» French toast, another imposter served to me, that tasted nothing like what is described in the menu. No cinnamon taste or Cinnabon was MIA.
I got a headache took my Tylenol and paid my check. Probably won’t be returning nothing was good here

The food had no flavor, I ordered the meat lovers skillet and was a bit disappointed, it was very bland. My drink tasted funny, again with no flavor. The waitress was very friendly which is why I’m giving a 2 star review. The restaurant itself was very dark.

My 4 star rating is for their breakfast/​brunch.
Get ready for some seriously huge portions. The restaurant is spacious and clean. Everything is themed around lumberjacks so get ready to eat like one — big coffee mugs, gigantic biscuits, heapings of meat! I’m definitely not complaining.
Lots of variety and breakfast options. They even have a «smaller portions» section which is great if you don’t want to be wheeled out. Whichever dish you choose, you must spring the extra $ 1 to get the side of biscuit and gravy. It’s a hamburger bun sized biscuit which they cut in half and cover in white gravy and it’s my favorite thing. So comforting and delicious. The side is big enough to be a full entrée. Always happy and full which makes this my go-​to Sunday brunch joint.

Great ambience, I like the traditional style of the restaurant and simplicity of the whole place.
Service — 5. The hostess, Lisette, greeted us with a warm welcome immediately upon entrance. Felicia is wonderful, very friendly and constantly checked up on us. The orders came out in a timely manner, very fresh and everything was perfect!
Food — 4. I ordered the Big Jack’s Skillet (seasoned potatoes topped with ham, sausage, bell peppers, mixed onions, cheese and country gravy; I added bacon) and it was absolutely AMAZING! Definitely a homemade taste to the dish, it was extremely filling. I barely had room for my toast. My brother ordered a half stack of flapjacks (half was a wise choice, each flapjack was about 5 – 6 inches in diameter and ½ inch thick) and he had zero complaints.
Overall: 4.5
The prices were good for the portion sizes and it was an enjoyable experience.
The only thing I saw wrong with this restaurant is that there are no flavored creamers, only half and half :(
I will definitely return sooner than later!

We showed up 15 minutes after the sign on the door stated that the restrurent was closed and was given a welcome in and we’ll take care of you. Nice!
We had the Jack melt and a dinner salid. The sandwich could have use some avocado but otherwise it was good while the salid dressing was exellent. Overall ill give thid place 3 stars. Not bad.

Located on Craig Road in North Las Vegas, and part of a small chain featuring the slogan «Where the Big Boys Eat,» it was largely on a whim that I decided to visit Lumberjacks Restaurant en route to an early showing of The Avengers at Galaxy Theaters and although the bloated movie was more than a little disappointing the breakfast served amidst log cabin décor was far better than rumors or reviews would have it, even if portions didn’t really seem all that large to someone sporting a pretty good appetite despite his deceiving frame.
Cleverly themed, but far less ‘branded’ than Hash House a Go Go or Black Bear Diner… or any restaurant under the Daniel Boulud banner, to be fair… guests arriving at Lumberjacks are greeted by the large statue of a hirsuit woodsman out front and upon entering by ‘yes sir/​yes ma’am’ service plus a large case of cakes and pies, an «ultimate burger bar» with tables flanking it on both sides before an open kitchen to their rear.
Offering options of breakfast, lunch, and dinner with almost the entire menu available throughout regular business hours, it was with little hesitation that I flipped directly to the section labeled griddles and after a few questions about what was featured in the pastry case my order essentially wrote itself, a request to have items sent out as they were ready resulting in two courses served over the course of forty-​five minutes during which only inaccessible «free» WiFi and having to repeatedly request coffee refills marred an otherwise pleasant stay.
Homey in design, with tables and chairs set peripherally as banquets and booths lined the middle of the room, it was in a sort of alcove that I sat and within only ten minutes of ordering I was in the midst of sugaring my second cup of coffee when my dessert-​as-​appetizer arrived, the plate described as «deep fried bread pudding» proving to be a sort of devilish mashup somewhere between traditional custard soaked brioche and an apple fritter with a crispy golden exterior gilded by glistening caramel plus a sidecar of custard lightly tinged with booze.
Almost certain that neither my entrée nor a housemade biscuit would trump the bread pudding in decadence, quality, or inspiration it was nonetheless to a large plate of proteins and carbs that I was treated next and although my assumptions would indeed be born out as none but the nutty banana bread with a gently seared exterior was particularly memorable it wasn’t as though any of the options was particularly ‘bad,’ just standard run-​of-​the-​mill breakfast fare served at a good price with both flapjacks and French Toast happy to sop up pure maple syrup ported from home while the large biscuit was piping hot and flaky with ample notes of buttermilk beneath whipped butter and honey, both.
Setting aside the out-​of-​the-​way location and service that was far less attentive than would be expected from a restaurant less than a quarter full, Lumberjacks Restaurant is comparable to spots like The Cracked Egg, Egg Works, Mr. Mama’s, Jamms’, and several others in terms of price, quality, and portions — the deep fried bread pudding amongst the very finest examples in The Valley, and something I’d suggest justifying the thirty minute trip North.

Breakfast galore I would say. They are a lumberjack themed place. The first time i came they had a wood cutting competition on the TV, after I’ve only seen sports. I’ve only been here a few times but it’s pretty basic. I’ve had the chicken fried steak and the regular steak. The chicken fried steak has a pretty good gravy. I’m totally down to come back for that. The steak I asked for medium but came medium well, my toast came out cold but they gave us an extra biscuit. When I order the steak I decided to get fruit. I always forget it comes with melon and honeydew. not a huge fan. The waiter was nice and helped us when ordering. My friend wanted to switch some stuff out and they were pretty cool about it. Quick and decent meal in all. At the counter up front they have some big huge chocolate cake. They can box it up on the way out for you to take home and eat on your own. They also carry beer to turn up for Sunday brunch.

Lumberjacks takes on a refreshing change in breakfast food! It’s not like your IHOP or Dennys. Service was great and attentive the entire time.
When the food came out, I ordered the breakfast burrito, it was flavorful. The food wasn’t very hot though and the hash browns were a bit lukewarm. The fact that the food wasn’t hot brought my rating to a 3. If it were hotter I think the flavor would have been even bolder, for an overall better food rating.
Worth a try, and a good experience overall.

The first time I went to LumberJacks I ordered the veggie omelette, it was delicious.
The waitress who took my order could have been a little nicer, she was a bit cold. (Seems like she hated her life)
The second time I went to LumberJacks (about two weeks later). I dined in and order the veggie melt sandwich. It was TERRIBLE!
1. The bread was so hard, I thought I broke a tooth
2. Hardly any vegetables
3. Hardly any cheese
The waitress rushed me to eat and was rude. There was only two people in the diner, so I don’t know what her problem was.
I ordered the bread pudding as dessert. It was surprisingly good and the portion was HUGE.
I think for the most part this restaurant has good food. If they would hire better waitress’s and a cook that cared a little more, this place could be fabulous.

Big portions. I had chicken fried chicken and eggs. its was really good.
Service was good. Coffee worth asking for more. Plenty of tables no waiting for seats.
Next time I have to try the biscuits and gravy.

I have visited this location several times and have introduced it to several friends and fellow Unilocalers. The service has always been friendly and the portion sizes have always been generous.
The chicken fried steak comes standard with eggs and choice of potato. You also get your choice of bread, which includes a large biscuit. For a small up charge ($ 1.00 I believe), you can substitute pancakes or biscuits and gravy. The first time I substituted pancakes I could not believe the portion size. You won’t leave hungry that’s for sure.
The Mrs. ordered chicken fried chicken. It is literally chicken fried steak, only with chicken instead of beef. I was pleasantly surprised and may order that for myself the next time. The coffee was fairly decent and the atmosphere is reminiscent of a log cabin.
I have never had anything other than breakfast here, but they do have a «burger bar» that I am eager to try. All in all, Lumberjacks has been consistent and merits a return visit.

Place was empty on holiday morning. Should have known. Wife thought coffee was too strong & bitter. I was ok with it. I got a skillet. Potatoes could have been cooked longer, gravy thicker with more flavor other than flour, & over easy eggs were way undercooked. Wife’s banana bread french toast was ok. They gave us the wrong bill. They had a 1 in 4 shot at getting that right & missed.
No thanks. Won’t be back. Should have gone to IHOP couple blocks away.

Breakfast for breakfast. Breakfast for Dinner. On this particular day it was breakfast for lunch. GA had had already conducted a reconnaissance of Lumberjacks and thus it seemed a suitable option to dine.
Upon arrival and a quick check of the menu, I had pretty much already decided on GA’s recommendation that I consume the Chicken Fried Steak (CFS) on this day.
I did make a cursory glance at the burger menu having seen a burger bar located at front of the establishment. I did not pay it much attention after I spied you could «load» your house potatoes and/​or hash browns. more on that later.
Our initial server was on point, though I cannot remember the name, her friendliness would eventually begin to slide. Perhaps, she was late for her lunch break. Thank you’s deserve your welcomes. As I recall, she did not conclude the breakfast/​lunch for four transaction.
I ordered the CFS. The eggs were over easy. My hash browns were «loaded.» Loaded– cheese, sour cream, and chives. BAM! This is a welcome addition to a potato prepared in any style. Instead of bread, I went with a single flapper jacker. Somewhat tasty, but lacking in any sort of warm to melt butter, I would eventually have to scrape it off.
Might be back… might not… All in all, a solid three star experience.
