This place has THE BEST NACHOS I've had in CT. I could devour the entire order by myself but I'm always forced to share, unfortunately. Very cute and friendly vibe in your local town pub! They don't seem to deliver anymore which prevents me from being lazy on a Saturday night but it is worth the trip, regardless. read more

We love Station House. It is a friendly, fun, and local place. The owners and staff are always welcoming with big smiles. The food is always fresh and delicious. Our favorite calamari is here. The weekend bands add to a great night where you can sing along, dance, or just enjoy the music. The owners are always happy to support local community events. read more

Good old fashioned pub experience. Friendly staff and reasonably priced pub food. Often host live music. Parking lot makes it easy to park without having to stress. read more

Very solid four stars for a late night proper bite. My best friend and I had been driving all day, it was about 9pm on a Tuesday night and we wanted dinner. Most kitchens in the area had already closed, and we ended up here because they were still serving food. Parking was very convenient, especially for my big pickup truck. The bartender, Nico, served us. I let him know that I'm recently sober and asked what non-alcoholic beverages they had. He brought out a non-alcoholic beer that I had never heard of, Clausthaler, a super pleasant surprise, and it was very good. Nico was exceptionally friendly and personable, he was very attentive and stopped by to check on us frequently despite having a bar full of patrons to also tend to. My friend and I both ordered burgers on gluten free buns. While the order arrived promptly and correctly with our requested toppings, the burger patties tasted like they were commercially made and frozen, not freshly made in house, and mine was slightly overdone. I had regular fries and my friend went with the sweet potato fries, both were good and as expected. First bite of coleslaw had a weird texture and flavor, felt a little off and I was full from the burger anyway, so I didn't touch it beyond that first bite. The impressive service, the non-alcoholic beer, convenient parking and hours are reason enough to give this place a try for a later night out. Freshly made burger patties would have earned this place its fifth star from me. read more

We tried this place tonight and I was thoroughly disappointed. I got a steak salad and the lettuce was bruised and soggy. There was supposed to be shoestring onions on top and it was just a big chunk of onions that was raw on the middle. When I asked my server about it she tells me that is what it is supposed to be - a fried onion. As far as service, she was definitely more interested in sitting at the bar and hanging out than doing her job. We won't be back. read more

We had the salad with steak and blue cheese. It was a generous portion especially after we had clams for our appetizer. The salad was fresh and loaded with the steak and blue cheese if that's what floats your boat. We loved it. And the fries on the side--crispy and not over fried. Nice and attentive wait staff! read more

The guy in the coffee shop is an old grumpy man who barks when you open the door and enter the establishment. Would never spend my hard earned $$$ in place that was so unwelcoming. Some people are not meant to work on the front lines of customer service. This guy heads the list! read more

I stopped into this place last night just to get out in the neighborhood. I am so glad that I came here. First off there was a Live band and I love that! The bartender made excellent drinks & the staff was awesome! Lastly the lovely owner actually came over and sat down to chat with me which made me feel welcome! I am recommending this place and will def be going back because burger was delicious!! read more

This is my brother in law's "go to" restaurant on Friday night. It's a place right next to the Metro North East Norwalk station. It's a nicely appointed place and the service is always excellent. It is mainly pub food that never disappoints. The calamari is excellent as is the fried mozzarella. They have burgers, salads, entrees and prime rib on the weekend. I usually get the fish and chips which never disappoints. The bar area is gigantic and the bartender Shawn is always friendly and helpful. They have high top tables that I prefer as well as regular tables. They play excellent music. This is always a good night out with friends and good food and drink. read more

Had a delicious plate of potato skins, a fresh crisp salad, and a rack of ribs. I also tried their gluten free Hard Cider and WOW! The service was competent, professional and friendly, the food was served at the correct temperature the bathrooms were clean and the bill was fair. I would definitely return. read more

Haven't been here for years until a friend recommended the French Dip, a sandwich dear to my heart but hard to find a good one. Sadly, this was one of the worst. The roast beef was over-cooked, likely heated in the microwave until dry. The Jus was without flavor or seasoning. Adding salt didn't help. The fries were just "OK" nothing special, and a little undercooked. I would have enjoyed them a tad crispier. Oh- and the coffee - very bitter. They had no half & half, only milk or heavy cream. I requested the heavy cream, and despite adding a lot, it was still bitter. My husband ate his burger, but he will eat anything, so I can't judge the burger. The soft drink machine was broken, so no soda available. The service was friendly, but we were one of only two guest tables. No complaints about the atmosphere, but atmosphere means very little when the food just tastes bad. I'm sorry we won't be back. read more

This is a local place for us and we are regulars. Can't think why I have never written a review before. Whenever I feel like a really fresh and delicious salad, this place is a must. My favorite is their Cobb Salad they will add a piece of Chicken, Steak or Salmon to any of the salads on their menu. My husband is a fan of their French Dip and another friend of ours loves their Penne ala Vodka. Local place, friendly people, great on a Friday night. read more

Definitely decent food and beverages. Quality is certainly consistent and well above average. For example, burger was perfectly cooked to order and of the highest quality. Soups are great. Nice decor and media. Clean! Down from four to three stars however. One: ridiculous uncharges for non-starch substitutes. Two: bartender charged me for a soda water back on a very decent tab. Every explanation from her only added insult to injury. Ridiculous. Much of the SoNo competition outperforms. read more

Great place for a date. Prices are good and the quality of food is pretty high. Our waitress was awesome and on the ball. Was pretty busy but we also went on a Friday night. read more

Station house looks pretty plain on the outside, and is in a weird part of East Norwalk (right by the train station) but once you walk inside the restaurant is open, clean, and modern. We had steak tips, the 2 hot dog meal, and a steak dinner and everything was delicious. The service was also great, our waitress was very attentive. We will definitely be back. read more

My first time ever writing a review, that is how bad my experience at this restaurant was last night. The waitress was so rude, from the second we walked in, like she knew us and didn't like us, what did we ever do to you waitress?! It blows my mind that someone who we are suppose to tip can actually make a living at this while be so rude! I don't like it when reviewers give 1 star and only talk about service, I mean if the food is great and a person is having an off night or just cranky then so be it. Not the case here!! The food was worse then the service! Gross really! Burgers not cooked, at all! Chicken on salad was precooked, rubbery chicken, I couldn't eat it. The only thing edible on the table were the fries. The prices were so so, but when the food is not edible then the menu seems way overpriced! read more

Went here earlier this week for a friend's birthday dinner. Interior has been updated and it's very nice inside. Diverse choices of beer on draft, there's something for everyone. Same for the menu. If you're into seafood there's a ton to check out, but I'm not- but I felt there were still options for me. First we ordered the Jalapeno Nachos and Fried Mozzarella. Both came out quickly. I didn't have any Mozzarella, but the nachos were excellent. I had a Caesar salad with chicken for my entree, the chicken was grilled to perfection. Everyone else at the table enjoyed their food a lot. My friend got the strawberry milkshake with a shot of Stoli, and that was amazing. Service was fast and friendly, would definitely come back! read more

Food is pretty good, I have eaten there a few times. Beautiful decor, tv's on at the bar always some game on. Nice place to go to after a long day of work to grab a beer or some food. East Norwalk Metro North station right there! Parking is also available in the lot! Now the reason I gave it 3 star's instead of 5. I thought the price of food & drinks are a little high! Yes a nice place but I do not want to get raped when paying for my tab. 2nd reason is I get the feeling like they do not want me there. I always get this strange look when I enter & it is usually the same people at the end of the bar giving me this look. There is no attitude whatsoever but a very sterile feeling as if they just want me to hurry up & eat so I can leave as soon as possible. Respectful but sterile, I do not know what to make of it. Good place otherwise. read more

One reason I never order meals with artichokes is due to the risk that the chef will use pickled artichokes and not rinse them well resuling in a strong vinegary dish. Well that's what happened with their chicken scarpiello, but with the cherry peppers. My wife had their steak, which was under cooked and that's fine as they cooked it some more for her, but what I noticed was that the sauces in both dishes we're unnaturally thick... I assume corn starch. read more

Oh my god their lobster mac and cheese is the best thing ever! Everyone has to try it!

Run away. Prime rib was over cooked and had to saw through it. Salad was soggy leaves. Made no effort to make it right. They were out of baked potatoes. Service was a joke. He just dropped the bill on the table and left. This place is a total joke. read more

I'm afraid the service is the only part of the meal that deserves more than one star. Avoid! The salmon was overdone and smothered in a cream-based sauce, and the lobster mashed potatoes the fish was inexplicably paired with left a gross taste in my mouth. My brother's ribs were truly revolting . . . The meat tasted like cigarettes. How?? And half the food on the table arrived lukewarm. read more

Surprisingly good. We've lived down the street for 10 years and have watched the prior dodgy restaurant at this location put out meh food from a standard bar menu. We waited over a year to try this new restaurant, and finally broke down to give it a go. And it was good. Huh. We went back a few weeks later, tried some different things on the menu, and those were good. What we love: the steak sandwich is excellent. The French dip also good. The kale and blablabla salad with grilled chicken was just right. So, yeah, when you want pub fare that's on par (really better) than Parker, try this place out. Good stuff. read more

I Came in for brunch and they wouldn't include celery for my Bloody Mary. The bartender said I could have olives instead then the owner said that olives are too expensive. Avoid this place at all cost. read more

Went in for lunch on Friday afternoon. The atmosphere was nice and the service was good (friendly and fast). We ordered a steak sandwich and a burger. The burger was little dry and the steak sandwich was good but the bread was too greasy. Overall a decent experience. Would recommend if you're looking to have lunch/dinner in a nice place. read more

Station House Bar & Grille - Open faced steak sandwich with fries. - American Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

We're regulars at this little gem in East Norwalk m. The food is really good and their bartender knows an extra dirty martini like no other. HOWEVER, we request bread every time and every time they forget! Why do we have to ask? And on the rare occasions when it does arrive, it's ordinary and cold. Service is really good and attentive - other than the bread issue. read more

I'm really surprised it's not busier: I've been here a handful of times and It is never crowded and the food is SO GOOD!

Prime rib dinner is great and is fairly priced, very well worth it. Place is clean and has good service!

Wow, all I can say is I must have come on an off night. This was truly the worst dining experience of my life. The waitress was so ridiculously rude the minute we walked in the door- giving attitude to our kids like she was a pissed off school teacher. If I had a dollar for every time she rolled her eyes at us i would be doing pretty well right now. Seriously, saw her rolling her eyes when we asked menu questions, when we ordered drinks because we were apparently taking too long, and basically any other chance she got. There is just so much detail of the shitty was she treated us that I could go into, but my fingers would be hurting from typing too much. As for the food, the fries were good but that was about it. Our friends daughter ordered a burger (they only offer 2 options- "pink" or "done"), done. It came out mooing. Completely uncooked and inedible. My burger (also ordered done) came out completely raw. It was returned, but never came back. When everyone was done eating I asked where it was and she gave me some story about how someone threw it out and a new one was never made. Then remembered the new one had actually been sitting there for half an hour and no one brought it to me. I finally got the burger but was totally over it. She tried to be nice in the end and blame everything on the cook walking out the night before, but it was too little too late. Save yourself the aggravation and go to Bogeys instead! read more

We stopped here on the way back from the aquarium with my family. The food was great (particularly the Bloomin' Onion), however the young waitress seemed very unsure of the menu and came off as confused if we asked any questions. Other than that, we were very happy with our visit and plan on stopping back again next time we're in the area. read more

Went for the first time. Menu is extensive and varied. Our appetizers were okay. Oysters Rockefellar was not up to par. Needed more time on cooking. Calamari were good. The "full" rack of ribs were priced as other restaurants price full racks but it was a very small rack of ribs. The quality was excellent but there were 6 small ribs. We didn't have dessert but it was a small choice of things. We will try it again try different things. By the way PARKING is awful! read more

Not much to say except stay away. I don't give bad reviews but we are afraid we might end up in the hospital if we finish our meal. I had a steak sandwich that tasted like it had been sitting around for a few days. My date had pulled pork that wasn't any better. The fries weren't bad, but we weren't paying 15 bucks a plate for fries. Even my drink wasn't good. I had top shelf vodka that was watered down so much that I didn't have to sip it. Not to beat a dead horse, but if you do go there don't sit in a bench on the back wall. It felt like Rocky was working out on the other side of the wall during out entire stay. Will never go back unless we are only drinking bottled beer and it's free. read more

My husband and I have eaten here 3 times. The ribs and the lemon chicken were very tasty. We found the wait staff and bartender friendly. We wonder why they don't offer any bread, particular when there is a 5-star bakery within 2 miles that provides other restos in the area with amazing bread and rolls. There is good potential here for a serious eatery, with some things are could easily be fixed. read more

Stationhouse has great food I went there for Lunch after a long morning of meetings me and 15-16 people went to the Stationhouse for Lunch we were all Seated very quickly the food was yummy they have Burgers Steaks Chicken Pork Hot Dogs Sandwhichs Salads lots of Side Orders read more

Wow... decided to try this and will definitely be going back. One: the food is *amazing*. Try the turkey burger... it is juicy, and the perfect balance of flavors. Even the cole slaw is good, and that is usually a "thanks, but I don't need that" side. My husband's ribs were basically fall off the bone, pulled pork ready. We left full and happy. The service was also great - friendly, funny, and checked on us - but never overbearing. There was just no worry you couldn't find someone to get something if you needed it, such as a drink refill. Will definitely be visiting again, it's probably the best place to eat in Norwalk. read more

Great casual dining in Norwalk. This place is good each and every time and I am surprised by some of the negative reviews. We've been there atleast 3 times and each time was very good, no complaints. Reasonably priced and family friendly. Burgers, pasta, lobster mac and cheese, good salads. We also had an excellent waitress last night, Joelle was awesome! Haven't had that good of a waitress anywhere in a long time. read more

Mediocre food and drink in a renovated atmosphere. The brunch was a big, expensive disappointment. The only waitress I've encountered is persistently spacey and should be a bit more on her game. After several try's, I will not go back here. read more

Came in a total of 3 times in the past month and a half, and I must say it was DE-LI-CIOUS! I highly recommend the baked clam in the half shell, those are phenomenal. My first visit a month ago I tried the lobster rolls with greens, I'd say that they should probably just stick to putting all the lobster meat into one roll because it's better that way. At least that's what I believe. Nice selection on wines and beers. Service is eh, the first time we dined the girl just seemed very bland, as if she was there to just take our orders and that was it. One of the other occasions I tried the calamari, nothing to rant and rave about, just your typical calamari. Still delicious but I wouldn't talk it up too much. Any sandwich you get is going to be filling. Tuna special was PHENOMENAL. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM PUTTING IT ON THE MAIN MENU! Anyway, I will definitely be back here more often because it is that good. Nice quiet ambiance. Very nice decor. Great job remodeling from the old East Side Cafe. Another note, parking is somewhat of a pain because they share the lot with the train station so if it's a busy day for commuters, plan on not finding parking too easily. read more

My dad took me there for dinner one night. It was so good. I had the fried calamari as an appetizer. It was very tender with a great crunch and the sauce served with it was amazing. For my main course I had the grilled salmon over lobster mashed potatoes. I have to say, it was like an orgasm in my mouth. The salmon was cooked to perfection. My dad had a burger that he said was great and my stepmother had the lobster mac and cheese which was to die for. I couldn't keep my fork off her dish. The staff was very nice and welcoming. I will definitely be back and I will reccomend this place to many of my friends. read more

Amazing food, drinks, and atmosphere! Jason is the best!! Haven't eaten anything there I haven't loved. The Prime Rib is a must!!
