    A Magical Evening Dinner at Log Haven — An Unforgettable Utah Gem My husband and I were in town for a few days and on a whim I decided to book Log Haven; surprised to find an open reservation. If you’re looking for the perfect blend of exceptional food, breathtaking scenery, and warm, rustic elegance, look no further than Log Haven. Nestled in Utah’s stunning Millcreek Canyon, this restaurant is truly a destination dining experience that delivers on every promise. From the moment we arrived, the gorgeous log cabin atmosphere set the tone. Massive wooden beams and carefully curated mountain decor created a feeling of cozy luxury. Every corner feels intimate yet grand, perfectly blending upscale dining with the rugged charm of the Wasatch mountains. We were lucky enough to be seated at a table with a direct view of the waterfall. It felt like dining in a private alpine retreat, with nature providing the perfect soundtrack. Our evening was made even more special thanks to Elise, our waitress, who was the definition of attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. She guided us through the menu with genuine enthusiasm. She checked in just the right amount, making ensuring our experience was flawless without being intrusive. And then — the food. Absolutely outstanding. Log Haven’s reputation for elevated mountain cuisine is well deserved. We tried several dishes, but the highlight had to be the game meat options. The elk and bison was cooked to perfection — tender, juicy, and rich with flavor that celebrated its natural character instead of hiding it. The accompanying sides were beautifully prepared, balancing the meal with fresh, local ingredients. Every plate was a work of art, both visually and in taste. I am a history buff and loved that Elise was a wealth of knowledge of when the cabin was built and its restoration by the owner Margo. I was immediately in love with this space and hoping to return to SLC just to go to Log Haven. We will be asking for Elise!

    Located inside a National Forest and only a few minutes' drive from Salt Lake City, Log Haven is a total gem! We started with a few drinks that were well-made and tasty. Our appetizer was Korean Fried Cauliflower, just amazing. For entrees, we had Mustard-Tarragon Crusted Salmon (tender, juicy, and great flavor) and Togarashi Crusted Tuna Tataki (perfect doneness and great presentation). We ate outside, where the environment is relaxing and the forest beautiful. Across the street is a beautiful waterfall. The valet is quick, and the forest fee is paid by Log Haven when you exit.

    From the moment we arrived at Log Haven, we knew we were in for something special—but the evening still exceeded all expectations. Tucked away in the mountains, the setting feels like something out of a fairytale. The views are stunning, and the ambiance is warm, elegant, and inviting. We were lucky enough to have Johnny as our server, and I can’t say enough about him. He was the perfect blend of professional and personable—attentive without being intrusive, and genuinely passionate about the menu and experience. You could tell he loves what he does, and it made our night that much better. As for the food—Chef Dave Jones is a culinary artist. Every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. From the first bite to the last, you could taste the care and creativity in everything. The flavors were thoughtful, the ingredients fresh, and the pacing of the meal was just right. Log Haven isn’t just a place to eat—it’s a place to slow down, connect, and savor. We left feeling full, happy, and already planning our next visit. If you're in Utah and want a truly memorable dining experience, do yourself a favor and make a reservation. Ask for Johnny if you can—and send compliments to Chef Dave Jones. They both helped make our night unforgettable.

    Amazing ambiance and setting. Service was excellent. Cocktails were excellent. We had the elk and pork chop..both were very good. I would highly recommend this place. A bit of a journey to get there from downtown, but well worth it.
