Smoked ribs are the specialty at this perennial local favorite, and if you like them you might consider buying the bottled barbecue sauce. The wedge-cut fries are thick and satisfying, and the hearty breakfasts include all-you-can-eat buttermilk pancakes. In warm weather you may eat on the small deck. There's also a full bar.
Like the East Cove restaurant, Log Jam looks like a refined log cabin, with three stone fireplaces and attractive wood furniture. Despite its down-home feel, the place serves upscale dishes like prime rib, roast duck, and steak au poivre, which comes with sautéed mushrooms and shallots in mustard sauce. Fish dishes include surf-and-turf combos as well as more-complicated preparations. There's also a salad bar.
If you like New York City–style pizza, this is the place for you. This eatery has pizza on par with anything there, served up in a fun, casual atmosphere. Veggie lovers will enjoy the Tree Hugger (pesto, spinach, garlic, and more), while carnivores will go for the Carcass, loaded with every type of meat available in the restaurant.
