  I found the L station on TikTok so I decided to dine there for my 42nd birthday! The wait staff and the host were all extremely welcoming, I was seated immediately at the bar because I was a solo diner. I ordered the lamb chops, macaroni and cheese and yams as an entrée (yummm… right?) Let me start by saying the lamb chops were really, really, really good… however, the macaroni and cheese had so much pepper in it that I could not eat it all and the candy yams were not homemade, they in fact, came from a can 🤨!!!!!!!!! Overall, I had a great experience but if I were to eat there again, I would order completely different sides.

  Unprofessional Marketing Team. I tried to come here for dinner on a Saturday night (which is pretty common and normal for Chicago) and the business page and google said they were open then to come find out they were closed. Very upset and need a better way to tell customers if they are closed. Also, menu is extremely pricey for soul food and alcohol and space is small. 9/10 you gone be sitting by the bathroom which is unsanitary. You can honestly make this food at home LBVS! DON’T COME HERE

  If it wasnt for the waiter and food being good I would have given a lower rating. We waited a hour which is understandable because we didn't have a reservation. We were seated around 8pm. The space between the hostess podium and door is very tiny, its like you really have to stand over people while they're eating. The first strike was the meun they gave us to look at had a foot print on it. We notified the waiter and she gave us a new one. The second strike was when we got ready to eat my friend fork was dirty and the Third strike was when our dessert came out, which was in a glass but the plate was dirty. I will say the waiter apologized but I also feel like making items are cleaned and presentable is a must!

  My sister and I took our mom to L Station to celebrate her birthday, and we had such a great experience! We started with the salmon bites, my mom and I had the lamb mac & cheese, and my sister had the turkey tips. Everything was delicious! The music and atmosphere were great, and our waitress was so sweet, welcoming, and attentive. She made sure we were taken care of and really added to our experience. We also got a chance to meet Tee, the owner, who was so kind and down-to-earth. She wished my mom a happy birthday and even gave my sister and me a birthday shot so we could cheers to our mom! 🥂❤️ Such a thoughtful touch. Definitely make reservations because the place was PACKED! 😂 We didn’t have one, but they were kind enough to accommodate us for my mom’s birthday, which we really appreciated. Amazing food, great music, wonderful service, and genuine hospitality. We will definitely be back! ❤️

  My experience at this restaurant on 9/13/2026 was completely unacceptable. My party was seated at approximately 7:35 PM, and after waiting 45 minutes, we still had not received our drinks, food, or any meaningful service. The waiter appeared more interested in entertaining a female patron than attending to his assigned tables. During our wait, we observed him spending time outside sitting in a truck while our drink order was never even entered. Meanwhile, several staff members were behind the bar pouring drinks, yet no one checked on our table or noticed that we had been waiting an excessive amount of time. To make matters worse, when we finally decided to leave, no one noticed or acknowledged us leaving. After 45 minutes, we walked out without receiving a single drink or any food. I challenge the owner and management team to review the security camera footage from that evening and compare it with this statement. The footage should clearly show how long we waited, the lack of attention given to our table, and the waiter spending time outside instead of serving customers. We understand that restaurants can get busy, but there is no excuse for completely neglecting paying customers. This level of service reflects poorly on the entire establishment. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I cannot recommend this restaurant and hope management takes immediate action to address these serious service issues.The service was disappointing, unprofessional, and unacceptable. Customers deserve to be acknowledged, served promptly, and treated with respect. This experience fell far short of those basic expectations.
