I’m reviewing their service and the museum inside (NOT THE FOOD) All the meals here have been served more than 105 years. I’m not sure how good the food are but they are very crowded. The little museum inside the cookhouse is so COOL, you will get to see how old days cooking material be like and more… We were running out of time so we can’t eat but I’m sure the food is great and that’s why so many people came here. Also they only serve one dish each meal and it’s different everyday.

Visit the logging museum inside the restaurant. The food was great.They have a limited menu, that features a daily list of food they prepare. So you don't choose you get what they made. That said the food is really good prices are reasonable Family style seating I recommend it

Wow!! The ambiance was so awesome and the food was fantastic!! We experienced breakfast here. The menu is set and you are served as much as you can eat for a very reasonable price. There's a neat-o side room with all sorts of logging relics. Would absolutely recommend the Samoa Steakhouse.

I have always loved this eating establishment since the first time I ever found it! Which could be twenty years ago! I know it has been there longer, much longer than that! I hope it stays longer! Everytime I am in the area I try to go! I love bringing new people with me too! Here is why: the staff are quite friendly. The place is full of history. It is clean. Food is delicious! There is no way that you will leave hungry! I am so grateful that I was able to go again! I also bought bread to bring home!

Have been coming here since I was a kid and it has not changed for 20 years, which is a very good thing. Big long tables filled with homestyle food that is replenished every time you finish a plate. The menu is set every day for each meal and you get whatever is prepared for that day...and its always fantastic. The museum is full of historical logging equipment, photos of the area from 100+ years ago, and other interesting antiques. Highly recommend taking a detour out here.

Delicious, hearty, home made food in a rustic, family style setting. We parked our RV here for a few days with Harvest Hosts and explored the area. No menu, they serve whatever they've made for the day, but we ate dinner and a breakfast here, and everything was really delicious. Also got to chat with some delightful local residents. Great fun!

My husband (RIP) and I discovered this glorious restaurant in 1971! And every single time when in Humboldt returned for at least one meal, sometimes again the next day! It's changed a little over tho…

Great place with excellent and plentiful amount of food. It was affordable when I last went.

Great ambiance, feel of history… amazing staff , that’s the first impression.. the food was tasty as of home , nothing more nothing less , nothing fancy whatsoever. We went for a late breakfast, it was almost lunch time , but the kind lady chef prepared breakfast for us . Their biscuits and gravy is a must try . The scrambled egg was heavenly, sausages were perfect cooked , toasts were delicious. Buy their homemade bread . The staff who served us was so amazing and friendly. We felt like home ( we were the only customers at that time ) so they were able to take care of us . Please be ready to wait to get food , as it’s made fresh ..

If you have not been there, GO! Great food and lots of it. Family style dinners are amazing! First time I was there was about 35 years ago and I remember it well. So much fun with a group of people or just a few. It's about $15-$20 a person as I recall, but it's really good. I love looking at all the old pictures and stuff in their mini museum too! Check out my pictures! Can I get a thumbs up ? ! :)

Glad that I took my kids there in June 2022. While I understand that they're currently closed, I certainly hope that my wife and I can return summer 2026 (website says planned 2026 reopen)! Good food…

Located in a beautiful scenic spot. Museum and tribute photos are great! Food was average. Pretty sure they are experiencing the staffing shortage as wait times and frazzled workers were evident. Bathroom wasn't very clean and needs some updates. Overall I'm glad to say I've been but probably won't go back.

I really wanted to love dining at this historic dining hall, but as so many others have noted, the food is sub-par, despite generous all-you-can eat family service. As an example, our dinner meal w…

If I could do zero stars for this place, I would. It was absolutely horrible. For dinner, you can get the entree of the night with soup, salad, bread, and dessert ($18) or you can just get the soup…
