We had a fabulous meal at Station. I'm always skeptical when I can get a last minute reservation on a Friday night, but I can tell you that Station was amazing. The drinks were fabulous; my favorite being the espresso martini - delish, but all the drinks at the table got rave reviews! The service was spot on. Just friendly enough without spending too much time at our table. Our server gave us suggestions that were spot on! I ordered the filet at her suggestion and it was cooked perfectly, flavorful and even a little unexpected. Again all the meals got raves from their respective eaters. Can't wait to go back.

We randomly stopped here for a bite and beverage. It's one I will definitely add to my list of places to return to when in the area. We only ordered the burger and chicken wings and a couple of Moscow Mules. Oh... the flavors were soooo good. The burger was hands down one of the best I've had. So many flavors on so many levels. Sweet, Spicy, salty, cheese. It had it all going on in the most delicious way. The accompanied fries were delicious also. The wings.... Just go for them. The service was outstanding. Will definitely be back... again and again.

One of my favorite places to eat in Pittsburgh. A happy union of professional but unpretentious, and food that's classic but surprising. The pastas in particular stand out in that regard. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and i would (and have) suggested this as one of the restaurants elevating Bloomfield.

Disappointed at our experience here, and while they did make it right in the end, I would suggest to others just to not go.We had a reservation but they asked us to sit at the bar. We were told we'd be fine waiting for a table, and when we were finally brought back to the dining room about 2/3rds of the tables were empty anyways.Our drinks took forever and we had to remind the server we ordered them after seeing others get theirs ahead of ours.My partner asked for no egg on her pasta as she's super disliking of eggs but it came with it anyways - not the biggest deal.Here's where things get weird. I ordered a swordfish entree with pasta and eggplant sides, but when it came out it was with clams and couscous. I said I didn't like clams (I despise clams), and had I known that I wouldn't have ordered it. I also have somewhat strict medical dietary requirements I need to follow that this didn't align with. The server said they decided to switch things out for restaurant week - but he never mentioned that before I ordered, then acted like I should just accept it. Made no offer to switch, so I sent it back and just ate some of my partners meal. Then my meal was supposed to come with dessert but he was ready to skip that part and just bring us the check.Then here's the rub - they charged us for the whole thing. That would be like if I ordered something - they were out of it and just brought me something else without asking me - and then when I don't want it they still expect me to pay. What if I was allergic to shellfish? After talking to the manager she agreed to take that off the check but the whole experience was weird, and even the manager didn't think it was weird they changed the items out without reprinting the menu or telling the person ordering about it.We have SO many amazing choices in Pittsburgh. F this place.

Went here for restaurant week and it was a bust. If you want meat for your entree it's an extra $10 on top of the restaurant week price. Wouldn't be a huge deal if the service was good, it wasn't. I never got a refill on my drink and they didn't clear our plates after courses. For the food, the short ribs were the most plain I've ever had, not flavorful. Their saving grace were the potatoes they were paired with. The celery soup was really good. Fish was meh. In all we were there for two hours (we didn't even have alcohol), service was slowww, and the courses took forever between them. Would recommend trying something else for restaurant week.

Went with a friend for dinner on NYE. The restaurant wasn't very busy when we arrived for our reservation, but we had to wait about 10 min before a staff member greeted us, and then had another short wait while they got a table ready for us. We were told that a few items from the pre fixe menu and normal menu were sold out (both dishes that we had planned on getting included) so we went with other options from the normal menu. We waited about 30 min to receive our cocktails and 10 additional minutes before we received our food. We realized we didn't have silverware after our food was dropped off, so had to wait to get a staff members attention to request silverware before we began eating. Our water was never refilled. The food was decent, but the overall experience wasn't good.

My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. It took 10 minutes just to get water, another 10 for a drink. The braised short rib tasted more like pot roast, and the service was subpar – no water refills or drink offers. Overpriced for the overall lackluster experience.
Food was good. Service was lacking and restaurant was out of 50% of dishes & drinks that we ordered.
We came for New Year's Eve Prix Fixe menu and to enjoy a full course meal and drinks. They must have been understaffed— our service was slow and one of our orders was 20 minutes behind the others. Our waiter completely forgot our drink order for our meal and they were out of several dishes on the Prix Fixe menu by 8pm. On a positive note the food was delicious. I'm curious to go back on a regular night and try it again.

We shared a number of appetizers and dishes, and each was very nice. The celery root soup was especially excellent, and the gnocchi with confit. Service was attentive without being overbearing or rushed.

Station is a foody heaven. The chef's three course meal caters to all. We went for a date night and had the roasted carrot salad, the swordfish with mussels and the pannacotta . Each preparation was Michelin star level. You cannot miss the bread. That itself is something we will go back for. The cocktails are made with in house ingredients and makes them special. Will definitely recommend.

I took my 4 employees to Station for our holiday dinner and we had a wonderful time. I've been there many times before and usually get a few small plates but this time I had the duck confit and it was phenomenal. I believe all 5 of us chose different dishes and we shared some small plates, and everything was so good! The special cocktails were fun, the wine delicious, and I can't wait to go again.
Sadly, they're closing but the pasta was amazing.
