5:45 - 7:00 PM

Ramona: Pork chops, baked sweet potatoes, sauteed mushrooms, iced tea

Jim: Caesar salad, grilled salmon, french fries, iced tea

Shared: Appetizer combo (Mozzarella sticks, wings, potato skins)

Logan's is always reliable, and instead of steaks, Ramona and I opted for something different. Both dishes were very good. No complaints. My fish was large and perfectly prepared. I wish the Caesar salad had been a little larger, but it was good at any size.

The parking lot was crowded, and we were afraid of a long wait, but only about 15 minutes went by and we were seated.

Ramona & Jim: Special dinner for two: Caesar salad, 11 oz. sirloins, broiled shrimp scampi, potatoes, iced tea

Logan's is not the best place in Waco, but with so many good choices, that is not a criticism of Logan's. Their steaks are good, just a tad less tender than Outback, but several steps below 135 Prime. Nonetheless, we enjoy Logan's mainly because it is not as noisy as Texas Roadhouse.

Our steaks were tender, although Ramona's was just a bit better than mine. The service was good, and, all-in-all, a nice dinner out on a week night!

Dinner -- 3/8/08

Logan's Roadhouse #418
2806 West Loop 340
Central Texas Marketplace
Waco, TX 76711

5:45 - 7:00 PM

Ramona: Caesar salad, 6 oz. filet, baked sweet potato, iced tea

Jim: Caesar salad, 16 oz. prime rib, french fries, iced tea

Shared: "Pick-three appetizer" with potato skins, breaded, fried onion chips, Logan's breaded and fried 'shrooms. Three sauces included sour cream, a zesty horseradish, and a spicy house dip for the onions.

This is not our favorite place for a steak, but we have never been disappointed. One advantage of Logan's over Texas Roadhouse is we do not have to dine with screaming, caterwauling country western music. Not that Logan's is quiet, but the sound level is not intrusive. We were told we would have a 30-40 minute wait, but were seated in about 20 minutes.

That said, the steaks tonight were perfect. We have tried to cut down on beef -- no more than once a week, so we are particular about where we break this fast. The salads were also fresh and peppery -- exactly the way we like them. I thought my prime rib was especially juicy and tender. The horseradish sauce did a good job of clearing out my sinuses. Ramona's filet also had an excellent taste. Both were cooked exactly to order.
