Best KPortal Reviews
The food at The L Station is phenomenal. Everything we ordered tasted amazing, including the drinks. My friend and I ordered the margarita flights and not only were they beautiful, but they tasted so good. The portion size was generous and the atmosphere was great. The music really set an upbeat and fun vibe to the night. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. My only critique is that it is very small and the wait time is crazy. We waited 2 hours to be seated after we were told it would just be 1 hour so that was disappointing but they do have a wait list that you can check from your phone. If we hadn't been planning to go for weeks I would have left but the food made up for the wait. I suggest getting there as soon as they open on the weekends.
Drove in from Michigan. The service was good. Our server was amazing. The food was delicious. Took a while to come but it was worth it. The lemon drops are strong and yummy. The music was dope! The cabbage was everything too
This dining experience was top notch. The food and drinks were amazing.
Let me start with the macaroni OMGGGGG so good you can slap your mama (but please don't lol). The macaroni had the perfect amount of seasoning and cheese blend to the point that you couldn't stop eating. The lambchops cooked medium were so full of flavor, perfectly grilled and seasoned. The yams had the right amount of sweetness in every bite. Oh let's not forget the cornbread so good. The margarita flights were perfecttt. The bartender did the big one on the drinks. The presentation was beautiful and baby the taste made u feel like u were taking a real flight! This was absolutely perfect!
Love this place! Came here to pass time on my birthday and this was a whole vibe. Lovedddd the Don Fashion! That’s a twist of the Old Fashion with Don Tequila instead of Dark liquor! And the mesquite smoke just added to the flavor. If you are in the Chicago downtown area you should check them out!
Good was delicious!!
So let me tell you a little about myself. When I am new to a place, I always try to get the best for less because I am trying it out. It just so happened that at this restaurant the best for less was the turkey melt, which happened to be what I actually wanted anyway so that right there already made me feel great. That turkey melt was amazing, ate it so fast couldn’t even get a photo ghhhhheeeezus. Now I admit it did take a little while to come out however, the bartender Candice, as well other employees made sure that I was comfortable and let me know the reasoning.
Candice, the bartender was absolutely amazing. She gave suggestions and the drinks was actually great. My homegirl ended up getting the salmon bites as well as the salad and those were also amazing. You know I had to get me some ????.
Definitely 10/10 the prices aren’t that bad especially for what they are located.
Can’t wait to go back!

Today me and my friend went to the L Station Chicago after work. It was our first time there and when I say they did not disappoint. The atmosphere was a vibe, the owners are so super pleasant and sweet, they checked on us, made sure our food was okay and the server we had was so super sweet. Baby the drinks was too good, the food was top notch, and their portions are just right. The whole experience was even better than I expected it to be. If you’re thinking about going here to eat stop thinking and just GOOOOO. The L Station Chicago is definitely 1000000/10 I can’t wait to go back.
So today is my 49th birthday and me and my family picked this place because they are black owned and first we called and they said they don’t do reservations because we are a party of 6. Then we arrive at 6.30 pm and they tell us it’s a hour and a half wait. We were outdone. When the waiter taking waitlist told us if we put up a deposit we could have had a reservation, really we weren’t told that. As an African American family we try to support black businesses but this place was very misleading. We waited a hour and 40 minutes and then an other hour for food. The only good thing about this place was the drinks. I think it’s very frustrating when you see the chef go get milk because they ran out of products. They assured us the wait will be worth it but unfortunately they lied. We are born and raised and Chicago and uncle John’s barb que is way better than the turkey tips I had. When do bones go in turkey tips? The Mac was horrible and the mash potatoes were from a box. The lamb chops Mac was cut up like pull pork. My birthday this year was ruined due to the lack of service the unprofessional service and nothing but a round of drinks for the inconvenience. I will never come back here again and will tell everyone not too if I can. # horrible! Oh ps my daughter never even got her yams!!! Check please. They actually want to charge a service charge! I think not!! Oh did I mention the waiter told us we need a bigger kitchen so they bagged up!!! Really were is the professionalism in this place. No decorum!!! The LLC Patterson family needs to be reestablished because they won’t last long!!!!
From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was amazing! We were greeted by the staff immediately! One of the owners(the brother) told us about the menu and what to try! The other owner(the sister) walked in and was very friendly as well! Our bartender/server was friendly, nice and explained the menu and drink selection to a T!
The food was the bomb! I’m from the south and I was skeptical at first, but when I say everything was good… I MEAN EVERYTHING! We all had a different dish and there were no complaints! I had the jerk turkey tips, Mac n cheese and yams! ThIS will be our spot on each visit to the Chi from now on!!!!
