Fantastic from service to good. Will definitely be back.
We came in for my fathers birthday, I had specifically requested the covered outdoor dining on the OT app. I was told that they couldn’t immediately accommodate us because we made the reservation through the app. The hostess and was very rude about this and made it seem like since used the app to make a reservation, my reservation wasn’t valid. We the. Went to the bar to grab a drink while we waited an extra 30 min for our table. The female bar tender then informed us we needed to change our drink taste when they didn’t have what we ordered....not my first choice of a suggestion as a bar tender. I was very put off by this! Luckily we were finally sat, our waiter was very pleasant and accommodating! If I hadn’t driven over an hour to celebrate my dads birthday, and was local I would have definitely chosen a different restaurant due to the initial impression by the hostess and female bartender. I grew up in this area and also grew up coming to filling station and was very sad by the “welcoming” (or lack there of) we received.
We will go back.
Love this place! Always a great experience. Their brunch is our nee favorite
I made a brunch reservation, upon arrival I asked the hostess for an “empty” table on the courtyard. She told me it needed to be clean and to allowed our waitress a few mins to get caught up with her tables. We got seated but there were no utensils/napkins on table. We waited for 15 mins and no one had offer water or at least the waitress to tell us she will be with us soon. Everyone around us was eating and drinking except for us. Finally a waitress for the other tables asked if anyone had taken our orders (she was very nice), to which we let her know we haven’t talk to anyone. She proceeded to take our orders to help the other waitress out. After we ordered, she got our drink orders and brought us some muffins and butter ( still no silverware 😳) finally the food came at which time we had to ask for silverware and napkins. I understand that the place was busy, but something as simple as bus person placing the silverware on the table, or someone noticing before we had to ask. And the fact that the waitress that we were supposed to “wait” for, never even stop by to tell us she will be with us soon. If I was a walk in I will probably expect that, but I did my job by making a reservation. The waitress that took care of us, you need to give her a raise, she saved our brunch.
Not a good experience
I reserved an outdoor table for a birthday luncheon on Saturday, April 10, 2021 at 12 noon. There were seven of us. Although the food was delicious, the service was the worst I have ever experienced. Our water glasses weren’t refilled. I had to ask for the desert menu and was given just one for my table of 7. We requested the ice cream for our a la mode desserts on the side, but was not offered a spoon. The coffee I ordered with my dessert never arrived. When two bags were requested for the left overs, we received only one. I had to ask again for a second one. For the more than $150 spent on lunch, a thank you would have been appropriate. We endured all of this without complaint. I am generally a great tipper. There were muttered remarks as we left. I can only guess that they were triggered by the length of our stay. One of my guests believed it came from the manager on duty. My guests came from around the state, Charlotte, Greensboro, Raleigh and locally to eat at this establishment. I neither felt welcomed nor that my patronage was appreciated.
Wonderful experience as usual. Hot crab dip was awesome along with the turkey Gouda wraps. Highly recommend. Great patio dining.
Food was ok. Service was slow. Ambience is nice
This is one of our favorites in Winston Salem. We have never had a bad experience with service or food.
Great food, even better service. The crab dip appetizer was awesome! Would definitely recommend.
Always love this restaurant! Will return here often
Service was amazing, food was delicious, nice area!
My wife and I went there for Easter Brunch, because this is one of our favorite places to eat. The service we received was friendly and professional. What kept me from giving it 5 stars, across the board, was that they did not make the blackened shrimp my wife ordered for her salad. That may seem petty, but to me 5 stars means perfect. Other than that one hiccup, which they rectified immediately, we throughly enjoyed our our visit. Their attentiveness and the quality of the food is what keeps us coming back.
Server was too busy with bigger parties to pay attention to us. Checked on us when the food arrived but during the meal. Ribeye was very fatty. Lobster Mac and Cheese is delicious. My companion hates to complain to the server and I wish he would have.
This is our third visit to The Old Fourth Street Filling Station, and it never disappoints! My mother-in-law is an EXTREMELY picky eater, and she loved her meal!
Enjoyed our experience. The food was excellent...will definitely return
Delicious food, great service. Will certainly go again ! Outside eating area is great !!
Great food and good variety. Love dining in their patio.
Outstanding food and service. Our first time eating there and we will definitely be going back.
Everything was nice.
Got to our reservations 45 min early. Got seated right away.
Ernest was very nice. We had a great brunch on Sunday at 11:30. We were a big group and we were comfortably accommodated.
Had reservations, table took a little long even though we were on time. Had to sit outside on heated patio, metal chairs were not very comfortable. Server was ok seemed busy took awhile to get refills. Food was hot and very good, a little pricey for a pasta dish.
Great food, as always. Our server, Morgan was top of class!
Wonderful food and great atmosphere. We had a wonderful family meal.
If you go for dinner, get the crab cakes!!! Very delicious and super filling!
Great food and atmosphere. Will definitely go back
Outside/beautiful day/great food&service.
Always the best brunch. 😁
We love the filling station. Our food was amazing. However our server was not up to par as to the normal experience here. She tried hard to be friendly however her knowledge was lacking and she loves to correct you if she thinks she knows more than you do. Sorry I do not know her name.
Lovely outdoor experience. Always a high level of food and service!
Delicious blackened snapper! Loved this place!
It was great. Sarah was our server; food was just right. They accommodated us earlier than our reservation.
Service was fantastic and food delicious! I can’t wish to go back.
The food was excellent, sweet tea was perfect, and the wait staff was 100% on task.
Went for Valentine's Day. Food was good and so was the service. It was very quiet though so I wish they had music playing or something.
Didn’t enjoy sitting outside in the cold.
Great food and great service
The food was very good. It was an enjoyable experience.
Enjoyed a wonderful Valentines Brunch. The food was great and our server was very attentive.
