Really late lunch so it wasn't too busy. Ate on the patio and it was so comfortable. Our server, Vince, came right over and took our drink order. He told us about the specials and my mouth was drooling when he said soft shell crab. We started with the smoked salmon dip which was so creamy and delicious. For entrees the hubby had the blackened drum topped with blackened shrimp over Brabant potatoes. He was kind enough to give me a bite and oh boy it was so good. I, of course, had the fried soft shell crab special over smoky asparagus. The crab was topped with more crabmeat and a beurre blanc sauce. The crab was cleaned so well and then lightly fried. It was a very fat crab and every bite was a culinary delight. This was by far the best soft shell crab dish I have ever had. I certainly don't say that lightly because I eat soft shell crabs from the start of the season right up to the end. We were so full that there would be no need to eat dinner. Then Vince of course mentioned the desserts and we chose the chocolate peanut butter doberge cake with chocolate ganache. We told him to make it to go and do not open the box when he brought it to the table! Overall, Station 6 treated us to one of the best meals we have ever had. We're locals and our favorite pastime is eating out at locally owned restaurants. Station 6 is definitely ranked in our top 3!! read more

The food was Very good and service was great. Will be back. Nice atmosphere also. Nice place to enjoy a great meal with friends.

Took some customers to lunch and might I saw what a great experience. The food was flavorful, delivered in a quick time and plenty. Our waitress Cydnee was attentive to our needs and checked in on us regularly and, something I appreciate, kept our drinks full. Aside from it being a little on the darker side, it's cozy but enough room to move around. I'll be back for sure. read more

I wanted to grab a bite to eat before the parade of homes tour. We decided to try Station 6. My little sister had the lamb burger which was so juicy; that caused her bun to be soggy. I ordered the American red snapper. The prices are a little on the higher side but we enjoyed our food. read more

Quaint and snug restaurant with all the courses you'd expect from a fine New Orleans restaurant. A nice cocktail menu, somewhat average on execution. Delicious and creative takes on salads. Raw oysters at their freshest and cleanest - the oysters are really impressive. The spinach Madeline is scrumptious. Mains have plentiful food and the meats and seafoods are cooked on point. Sauces, soups and purées fairly New Orleans heavy.... Excellent wait staff - friendly, interested, knowledgeable and they give you the space to enjoy the meal. A bit of an inconsistent dining experience, but overall worth the visit! read more

How was this weekend the first time I've been to Station 6?! It's a small restaurant with lots of charm. But the food is the real star. My mom and I went here to celebrate my birthday on Saturday evening. We started off with the smoked salmon dip and it was delicious. I've only had it with crackers or crostini at other restaurants so I was a little let down when it came out with pita chips and tortilla chips. However, the tortilla chips were made fresh and were perfect with it. I could have eaten a basket of just the chips. We shared the special which was fried soft-shell crab topped with jumbo lump crabmeat and a lemon beurre blanc. It was the best crab I've ever eaten! It was lightly breaded so you can really taste the crab which was super fresh. There was a generous amount of lump crabmeat on top with the perfect finish, a rich lemon beurre blanc. I can't wait to go back and have this dish again. 10 stars for this crab. We ended by each getting a dessert, peach/blueberry cobbler and butterscotch bread pudding. The bread pudding is made from donuts and was a little crunchy on the outside and light in the inside. Very good. The cobbler was also good with really fresh peaches that were still a little crisp. I would have preferred if it had more time in the oven to crisp up the streusel topping. My mom seemed to enjoy it just as it was. Altogether this was the best meal I've had in a while. The server was fantastic and the food was delicious. I will be returning for sure. read more

Finally got a chance to stop in and really enjoyed. Lots of fish options for mains. Next time we'd try to sit on the patio as the inside was very loud in my opinion. Started off with 1/2 dozen oysters. They were decent in size and not a bad price. Also had the kale salad which was really good. I could see myself grabbing it for a quick, healthy lunch in the future. BF had the red snapper and I had pompeno. Both were good size portions for the money. We didn't technically need a side but didn't know that at first so ordered the burbant potatoes. They were ok but nothing amazing. Server was very friendly. read more

All aboard the flavor express! My friends and I pulled into Station 6 for an early evening feast, and let me tell you--it was a first-class ticket to delicious town. Before we dive into the eats, let's talk location. Nestled near the New Orleans lakefront, this casual gem is perfectly positioned for a little pre-dinner adventure. I arrived early, so I climbed the birding observation tower at the park next door, and took in a breathtaking sunset. Nature's amuse-bouche, if you will. Now, onto the main event. Station 6 doesn't put on airs--it's relaxed, unfussy, and has a lovely patio for those who prefer their seafood with a side of fresh air. Our server was an absolute star, cracking jokes, keeping the vibes fun, and even throwing in a little celebratory hug when he announced the crab-on-crab special--which I had been not-so-patiently waiting to hear. And oh, was it worth the suspense: a beautifully fried soft-shell crab smothered in lump crabmeat, draped in a velvety beurre blanc, cozied up to perfectly roasted potatoes and asparagus spears standing at attention. A dish so divine it made me briefly consider taking out a second mortgage to order it again. We also kicked things off with a couple of appetizers--a creamy, dreamy crawfish dip with tortilla chips and a dozen of the plumpest, saltiest-to-the-gods oysters you could hope for. If those oysters were any fresher, they'd be filling out a restraining order against me. Drink-wise, I sipped on a couple of glasses of Cabernet while the rest of the table wisely split bottles. Because here's the thing: no happy hour means each glass of wine or cocktail hovers in the $13-$15 range, which makes splitting a bottle the strategic (read: less painful) choice. Now, let's address the usual elephant in the dining room: pricing. While most of the menu aligns with similar spots in town, that crab-on-crab special came in at a gasp-worthy $49.50. Toss in tax and tip, and you're looking at a $60+ entrée. Worth it? Maybe. But I'd need an extra special occasion (or a financial advisor's blessing) before I order it again. That said, Station 6 remains one of my top picks for consistently excellent food and service--it's just that my wallet and I may need to negotiate terms before my next visit. Will I return? Absolutely. But I may be pulling up with a BYO bottle of wine and a financial plan in place. Choo-choo, Station 6--I'll be back on the platform soon. read more

The food, service and ambience was perfect. We sat outside and it felt like we were at the beach.

The soft shell crab was hands down the best I've ever had -- perfectly crisp, flavorful, and unforgettable. The potatoes were just as impressive, a true 10/10. Together, they made for an outstanding meal. read more

Station 6 - Six Seafood Salad - Delicious! - Seafood Near Me - Bucktown, Louisiana

When my friend swooped me up and told me we were going on an adult field trip to Bucktown, I had no idea how lucky I would be. We sat outside which was very delightful. The outdoor dining area is surrounded by curtains, so we don't have to look at the parking lot. Thank you!! The food was delicious, all the seafood tasted fresh and clean. The crab cake is not to be missed, the remoulade was so good we asked for extra and the crab cake was more crab than cake! Very important to note, as I do not enjoy bready crab cakes. The highlight of our dining experience was definitely our server Phillip. Phillip was prompt, helpful and attentive, what more can three friends on an adult field trip ask for but Philip as our server? I would recommend a trip to station 6 any time you are in Bucktown, USA. read more

Don't let the casual name fool you. At first glance, one may think this is a sport's bar that sells wings and sliders. However, you'll quickly realize that this place serves up what would be close to fine dining in a small, quaint setting. They also offer outdoor seating with large heaters! Onward to food... I ordered the sizzling garlic shrimp for my appetizer. This was delicious. It arrived at our table still bubbling hot and sizzling per the name. The shrimp were so decadent and plump. The flavor profile was light but buttery and savory. I'm not even a shrimp lover but I would 100% get this again. For my entree, I had the special of the day, which was flounder with mashed potatoes, Brussels, crawfish sauce, and onion strings. Honestly, the waiter had a better description than what I am writing. Nonetheless, it was delicious!!!! It was so easy to eat and everything paired well with a glass of white wine. The seafood was so fresh tasting, which made for an even greater experience. My best friend also enjoyed her food! Overall, I highly recommend. Super cute for a date night and/or just a chill, quality dinner. The service was great and actually pretty fast. The menu is on the shorter side and mostly consists of seafood. Prices are $$-$$$. read more

Wonderful, friendly service with well crafted cocktails and good food. I don't eat seafood, but what I saw come out looked fresh from the Gulf. The chicken sandwich was an entire breast and lightly breaded with a just the right amount of blue cheese dressing, hot sauce and a few pickles. Flavors were fantastic. The fries were crisp and ready to enjoy. The space is clean and inviting. It's worth a stop for some drinks and some tasty food. read more

I had been wanting to try this place for a long time. The hours are limited, so it was hard to get here. My friend and I typically go to lunch on Sundays. As they are not open on Sundays, we had to adjust our lunch to a Saturday. Note that it is a tiny place and gets crowded quick. We came right at noon when they open on Saturday. There were already 8-10 people waiting at the door to get in. We chose to eat inside as the covered outdoors portion seemed appealing, but the fans were on high for the heat and it was kind of like a wind tunnel in there. Inside was super noisy still though. A large table near us was drinking quite a bit and as the hour progressed, they got louder and louder. It was a tad annoying, as we could hardly hear our waitress go over the specials with us. Also, as time passed, the bar there filled up with every seat. We split an order of Salmon Tacos and one of the specials that day - a grilled chicken caesar salad. I think the Salmon Tacos should have come with a side, but they don't. They were excellent though. I think they are the best Salmon Tacos I have ever had. They put a whole large chunk of Salmon in each taco. It was delicious! The salad was tasty, and it was quite large. Note that the prices are on the higher side here. I would definitely go back for the Salmon Tacos! read more

Great little place. They have a nice area outdoors to sit when the weather is right. My wife and I were greeted with smiles and friendly faces when we walked up. The hostess seated us right away. We were at our table about a min and our waitress (Mia B. ) came up and took our drink order. A very professional, friendly, happy and helpful young lady. My wife had the Durock Prok Chop and I had the Redfish on Half Shell (recommended by Mia) both selections were an excellent choice. Wish we had saved room for dessert. The meal and staff made Station 6 a 5 star restaurant, highly recommended giving it a try. It is worth a drive too. Great job Station 6 Team. read more

Phenomenal Everything you've heard plus more My husband said it was the best fish plate he has had (redfish on the half shell add oysters $30, +$11) and I had the American redfish on the crawfish rice pilaf (plus added crab on top! $30) I don't usually enjoy bread pudding but everyone on Yelp said to order it and they were not wrong! We were stuffed but we finished it They had a cocktail special that was similar to egg nog but lighter- very good- ask about cocktail specials tho I'm certain you'll be presented with those right away- service is perfect: waiter was very dialed in and a manager stood by the tables as well NO reservations but plenty of space outside to wait (bar is very small so bad weather could hinder the wait) or you could go for a walk read more

When was the last time you ate at a restaurant and, before you left, your server gave you a hug? Our server at Station 6 was Eddy and she was absolutely like family, ten minutes after we met her. The place was packed but she never missed a beat. We had two dozen raw oysters. So fresh! We each got a different entree and each loved what we got. My salmon tacos were off the chain. So flavorful! My son had soft shell crab which he absolutely devoured. Husband had grilled redfish and my daughter had kale salad with shrimp. They all loved it. Everybody in the place was super friendly and the food was amazing! Would recommend to anyone who wants an authentic New Orleans dining experience. read more

Fantastic food, atmosphere, and service. Best blackened drum around and their self-stuffed blue cheese olives to garnish a martini are the best. Warm and friendly setting. in a rustic building. All entrees are exceptional. When soft shell carb is in season don't hesitate to order one. For me, some of the best food in the city. Their Old Fashions need some work - too sweet, if I'm going to honestly critique. Other than that, it's my "go to" restaurant. read more

This is a small place up by the lake and away from town. We sat on the patio with a window into the kitchen. It was a pleasant fall evening. Our server was quick and very helpful with ideas and suggestions. We got a simple salad for appetizer. I got their specialty Margarita (cilantro and jalapeno with the lime) which was so good I got a second. I got a blackened fish that was excellent. Not too done and the roux was an excellent flavor. read more

I really love this restaurant. I am from NO, but no longer live there. My family still does and so do many friends. When I go back I love the good food that I can get. Moving away I learn that really good food is not all fried. So many NO area restaurants serve mostly fried food. I appreciate when I can get good, quality, healthy meal with NO flair, impeccable service and atmosphere. My four friends and I all loved everything. There is a nice wine and beer selection and a great cocktail list. The Pimm's Cup is a perfect cocktail. The tuna cracker appetizer that we shared was delicious. The Gulf Fish was amazing. My friends also loved the Blackened Gulf Fish, Salmon Tacos and Shrimp dishes. The service was top notch from the hostess to our waiter and everyone else we had contact with. I wish I had pictures! Next time. read more

Location is easily accessible to Nola and Jefferson parish on the lake in buck town. My party was seated immediately and the service was quick, yet almost a bit too aggressive.

My fish dish was beautifully balanced too. My cocktail was spot on too. read more

This is a very good restaurant that just continues to amaze. Tonight we had the blackened drum that was perfectly seasoned. We tried the curried brown butter Pompano and it too exceeded expectations. Bread pudding is easily one of the best in the city. Service was over the top. The addition of more tables on the porch/patio area was genius and added to the ambiance. This restaurant is easily one of our very favorites. read more

I was told that this place was a must visit so we decided to go today since the weather was beautiful. There was a wait, but it wasn't that ba, especially since the had comfortable seating under a tent. The restaurant is small and quaint, but it was really clean. The hostess was great and the staff was on point, especially our server. He was very attentive and friendly. Also knowledgeable about the menu. The food represented 5 star and the taste was really delicious. Definitely enjoyed everything that was served. The tacos were very tasty. I really enjoyed them. They were salmon tacos and they put a whole strip of salmon on it. My husband had the fish, forgot what kind, but he definitely enjoyed it. We both tried the bourbon sweet mash. Not what we expected, but definitely good. The restroom was clean, one toilet restroom. They have the really nice napkins and meyers soap. I would definitely recommend this spot read more

Yesterday I dined at Station 6 with a coworker as a late bday dinner for myself. The service was excellent. The passion fruit sidecar was amazing. The waitress warned that it may be sour but it was perfect. In true celebratory fashion, I had 2. The crawfish spinach dip was good but needed a little salt. My coworker is a picky eater and absolutely lived it. This was a plus because she always makes me nervous when I pick a spot to eat and I don't know what she will like. I also ordered the American Red Snapper. The grilled red snapper with crawfish rice pilaf was amazing. I'm not much of a salt person but I did feel I needed to add a little salt to this dish as well. That's a simple fix and didn't stop the show. Typically when I come here I order the fried soft shell crab. My friend ordered that and loved it. I'm glad I decided to try something new. The restaurant was pretty calm and quiet for a Tuesday night, but I think the rain may have scared the crowd away initially. Things started to get a little busier right as we were leaving. I will definitely be back soon. read more

I finally made it here and what a beautiful early evening it was. The temperature wasn't too muggy, you know how our NOLA summers are... a soft wind cascading off the water... and we were nestled beneath the outdoor patio... it was the beginning of a nice night. That sounded like the start of a novel huh??? Lol... duh, I am a writer you know... Anywho... Even with the popularity of this restaurant, as it is fairly new to the area, we were able to walk right in and get a seat in the covered outdoor patio area and begin dining. Our server came by & presented us with menus and filtered water from a glass bottle that would remain on our table. This was a plus for me because I like filtered water, tap-water ehhhhh not so much, bottled water, hello let's save the environment... But filtered water is right on the money. Thankfully the menu is fairly simple. One side is artwork, looks like a collage of pictures. On the other side are your food choices. He also presented us with a drink menu and to be noted, that one was two-sided, hello... Grilled salmon tacos for me and for my dining companion a scrumptious looking seafood salad. I also opted to top the night off with an adult beverage called an Old Fashioned. The grilled salmon tacos were quite tasty. There was a taco to fish ratio that kept my mouth pleased and happy. The corn and beans on top with the avocado were all too delightful. Sadly enough I only got two tacos, but I guess the portion size was right; I can only imagine if I had had a third one, I would've been gluttonous and eaten it there or doggy bagged and taken it home. The Old Fashioned got me on my level. It was powerful. I only needed one, shout out to the bartender. My dining companion advised that her salad was tasty as well. It looked quite delicious, but honestly the lett to seafood ratio was a little underwhelming to me, but I'm sure it tasted great. Loved the ambience. All modern & casual, yet elegant at the same time. Due to Covid, I had my apprehensions about going inside, so this outdoor patio situation was perfect. I found the waitstaff service to be excellent, very attentive and casual at the same time, not all stuffy like some of those hoity-toity restaurants. The food was good, as I perused the menu, I found the pricing to be more than I expected. A little bit more than the market average but hey that may be due to Covid and companies trying to hedge the bet to turn a profit. Ample parking. Old Hammond Highway is busy, so be careful. All in all it was a good experience, I came, I saw, I conquered & I'm out... #DiningDuringThePandemic #Station6 #NiceExperience #SupportLocalBusiness #BeATouristsInYourOwnTown read more
