    Trout special with jalapeño grits

    Great food, great service. We had the LA crawfish spinach dip; it was amazing!! My husband had the trout special and I had the blackened gulf fish. I had a jalapeño margarita, it was ok, a little too hot for me but tasty nonetheless. We will be back.

    Bread pudding

    Celebrated a birthday with dinner on a Wednesday for 2. Got there for 530 since we always see it fill up. Seated quick and inside attentive waiter and ordered martinis to start. Fish did was salmon for appetizer and ordered their blackened gulf and regular gulf fish. Tried their bread pudding for dessert. Cocktails were great prices compared to other restaurants and didnt miss on the alcohol. Fish was cooked perfectly and dont short on portions. Adding some older pictures of their peanut butter cake and old fashioned.

    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.

    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!

    Butterscotch Bread Pudding
    Stacey H.

    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.

    ANYTHING is awesome there. The service was great. The vibe of that place fits everyone in like perfectly. It's nice inside and outside. Had the: salad, oysters, fish&chips, salmon tacos, and of course- the bread pudding. EXECUTIVE CHEFS: ALISON VEGA KNOLL, and DREW KNOLL. (Mic.drop)

    Kale salad - very good
    Meghan R.

    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.

    Crab on crab special. Delicious. But OUCH at $49.50...which means over $60 with tax and tip
    Niki W.

    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.

    Six Seafood Salad - Delicious!
    Patricia R.

    I can't believe it's been seven years since my last review of Station 6. Time sure does fly. I'm very happy to report that this is still one of our favorite weekend dinner spots. We're there at least once a month and the food and service are still phenomenal. :)

    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.

    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.

    Jumbo Lump Crab Cake
    Felecia V.

    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 $$-$$$.

I notified the manager, Tiffany, who told me the oysters would not make me sick and offered to credit me for the ones I didn't eat. I found that response concerning and not the level of customer service I would expect when a customer reports a potentially spoiled food item. I will not return to the Metairie location. I'll stick with the New Orleans French Quarter location, where I've always had a good experience.

One restaurant that locals constantly recommended to me was Drago's Seafood in Metairie, and now I completely understand why. I ordered the charbroiled oysters along with the crawfish platter that came with crawfish étouffée, crawfish mac and cheese, and fried crawfish. Every single thing on the table was incredible. The charbroiled oysters absolutely lived up to the hype rich, buttery, smoky, and packed with flavor. The crawfish platter was just as impressive and gave me a chance to try multiple Louisiana dishes all in one meal. What really stood out to me beyond the food was the service. The staff was extremely friendly, welcoming, and patient with questions from someone who isn't from Louisiana and still learning the local food scene. You can tell they take pride in both the restaurant and the hospitality. The only downside is parking can get a little complicated because the place fills up fast, which honestly says a lot about how popular it is. Just plan ahead or expect a short wait finding a spot.

Buttery and garlicky, the crusty bread they serve with them is a great compliment to soak up the sauce.

I trusted his word and went with the seafood gumbo instead and was very pleased with it. The flavors were fantastic, but I am gonna ding it ever so slightly as I think $8.99 is kind of an obscene price for that serving size, but at least it was good.
