La Estación 1018 — Restaurant in Whitesburg

Bit lengthy -

We arrived in the parking lot and saw a customer leaving and we realized that she was smiling. We hurried inside. We walked in and was greeted with the widest smile from a server.

We were directed to find a booth and have a seat. There were a few guests eating and the chatter was low. I do believe it was low as the meal was so scrumptious that they could only nod, smile and eat all that yummy goodness. The music being played was low & pleasant - allowing for customers to still have a low tone conversation and still be able to call over their server should the need arise.

There were televisions on the wall above a few booth seats. The volume was turned all the way down; so You have to be a fast reader if you’re watching the tv- which you shouldn’t be watching anyway as you should either be looking at the menu or talking to your partner, friend, family across the table and then looking at your plate 😁😅.

The dining room was very clean. The tables were also very clean. There was no garbage strewn under the tables. We realized that as soon as a guest leaves - the table is bussed almost immediately. We noticed a server vigorously wiping down the menus with Clorox bleach wipes. I loved how they prioritized the health of their customers and staff.

Enil came over and his customer service was bar none. He inquired what we desired to drink. We gave our order. He brought back the drinks to our table and he then inquired what were we desiring to eat. I asked for his recommendation and he stated try the Birria as I actually felt for tacos but In a different style. He said good choice and I thought so when the meal arrived.

My hubby opted to get pizza. So New Yorker 😂. Enil stated everything was freshly made and this intrigued my hubby.

Yes this is La Estacion and the meal is very scrumptious but the menu has variety. You’re not stuck to just ordering tacos, fajitas, burritos but you can order steak, burger, pizza and so much more - ALL FRESHLY MADE & comes out PIPING HOT!!!

Please go and support this business. We were given a recommendation and we were delighted we went with the recommendation. I even ordered a meal to go for my brother.

As I’m leaving this review I just received a message about his meal and the next time we’re going he’s going to tag along.

PLEASE GO, ENJOY THE MEAL, TIP YOUR SERVER - Not just in words but in cash! Then come back and leave an awesome review....

My family of five came for dinner because we had come for lunch quite a long while ago and wanted to try it again. It was so disappointing. Got a large cheese dip, and it was the consistency of water with very little flavor. My kids usually devour a cheese dip, but we had half left. They got my son’s order wrong, so that had to go back to be corrected. Four of us got our food, and my daughter waited for well over 5 minutes for her food. So we all sat there letting our food get cold because we didn’t eat while she waited. Asked our waitress about it. She said that it was coming right out….it didn’t. Not sure why they didn’t wait to bring it all out at the same time. Our drinks never got refilled. Keep in mind that it was super slow. We went around 5:20 on a Friday afternoon. Maybe two other tables occupied when we got there. Asked for our ticket and waited over five minutes again. Mixed reviews on the food. Two of us said what they got was just ok. Three said it was pretty good. We won’t go back. Much better places to choose from, and if I’m spending $83, it needs to be good...

This place is great! 😁👍 I wish I had taken photos of my food to post. Not only was the presentation great, but the seasoning was amazing! Everything was delicious. (I ordered a mixed protein fajita and a custom chicken quesadilla. It was so delicious, I ordered a second helping to go.) Also, the servers were great, and it seemed like EVERYONE on staff that evening greeted me and asked if I needed anything. My server's name was Halana, and she took excellent care of me. The food was great, and the customer service was great. What more can you ask? I'd also like to add that I like their Covid19 approach as well. I felt safe while dining in, and I saw the employees sanitizing randomly while I was there. Overall, I highly recommend this establishment and will be returning...
