    Immediately appreciated the diversity and music within the restaurant. Once my wife and I looked at the menu, we realized how high the prices were for what was offered. I ordered the shrimp and lobster linguine which was not worth the 50 dollars. Plenty of shrimp but flavor was tolerable. My wife ordered the Gouda Mac and cheese with crab and bacon. It came with cornbread on the side. Her mac n cheese looked and tasted old. The cornbread had either a licorice or orange peel taste that I couldn’t swallow myself. We both agreed to never come back.

    I booked a late dinner reservation at 10:15pm on Monday, June 23rd and arrived on time to the restaurant just for the doors to be locked and what seemed to be closed. No one answered the phone this night nor the next day. It was a huge inconvenience and unprofessional to allow one to book a reservation if this was going to happen. I was very disappointed and had to scramble for reservations elsewhere!

    Our theater group loved Station 4 over many years but had stopped going because of the noise level. We decided to take a chance and were able to be seated in the side garden room. Delightful! We could easily hear each other.

    The food was excellent. There is an Arena Stage Prix Fixe 3-course option for $39 and 2 of us had good food with that. You also get a 50% off the house wines with Arena Stage tickets. The fish tacos were particularly tasty, with guacamole and lemon. I ordered from the menu and had very tasty Moroccan lamb chops (4) cooked to my taste. The one problem was that the broccolini was tough, except for the feathery ends, even when they replaced the order with a second set. They would do better to cut off the woody stems. I think the waiter was tired from a long day with brunch, however. It took a bit for him to warm up and he wasn't quite as solicitous as many servers are in nice restaurants.

    We made a reservation and expected to be on the nicer side not the bar area. Drinks were good, food wasn't bad at all would like to come back to try more options.

    Unfortunately the vegetarian meals I requested was not prepared! I called earlier and when I arrived, dissatisfied! Some food took a while before it was served, especially the chicken sandwich, the last food served and waited for 20 minutes. Really disappointed that we received one bill for the exact same amount twice! I guess the server thought we weren’t going to check the bill before paying??? That was really bad! I don’t think Station4 was ready to serve a large group, even though we were the only customers!

    There was a large group making a huge amount of noise. They were celebrating a birthday. The gambas al ajillo were spicier than they should have been and the oil didn't have very much garlic. The Ceasar salad was unremarkable. The chicken was good and this was a large serving. The burger was good, although the quality of beef was poor. The fish and chips were reportedly good (I didn't try this dish). The gelato was of poor quality and the cheesecake was not good. $40 per person 3 course dinner before a show at the Arena Stage.

    I looked this restaurant up and booked it immediately because I knew my fiance and I deserved a nice meal while on our trip. Our server Alexis was incredibly attentive and kind, got us everything we needed and took very good care of us. Our food came out so fast! And not only was it fast, but it was delicious! The atmosphere was a little loud, but overall this was a great dining experience and I would absolutely come here again!
