This was our third visit. We came across Station 16 during a holiday weekend and our usual restaurant was packed. Now Station 16 is our usual. The food was great. We brought guests with us the last two times. Same reaction. The food was great.

It’s amazing is my first visit here and we had excellent Customer Service. There was a group of us of 12 and everything was just over the top.

Intimate and dimly lit restaurant with a spacious dining area and bar seating. Stopped in for some cocktails that are very diverse and can be customized to swap out the liquor by the friendly and attentive bartenders. The artichoke spinach dip starter was delicious especially because we added shrimp.

Made a lunch reservation for 6 to celebrate a family birthday. We got caught in traffic and arrived 10 minutes late, and ended up having to wait another 10 minutes or so before getting seated. Unsure if they were understaffed, though the bar side of the restaurant where we were seated had plenty of smaller empty tables and booths.

On that note: if loud, bass-heavy music bothers you or you want to be able to talk to your group, I recommend asking to be seated away from the bar area. I was getting a headache by the time we left because the music was playing so loudly. And this is coming from a metalhead. :)

Our server came to introduce herself and was polite in all interactions, but seemed put off when no one ordered alcohol and kept rushing off lol. We kept having to ask different servers or possibly bussers to refill water glasses.

It took awhile to actually order after our server disappeared, and then longer still to get our food. The food was decent, and expectedly expensive for seafood. Considering the price and less-than-great service, my mother-in-law was mad at the required gratuity lol (pay your staff a living wage imo). Our birthday folks did get free ice cream at least.

Overall 4/5 food, and 2/5 on everything else. I'd rather get take-out if I ever want to spend $35 on a lobster roll again and don't want to deal with listening to atrociously loud WUBWUBWUB BDM-BDM-WUBWUBWUB again.

For some reason Google gave good reviews for this restaurant, so much that my husband was willing to drive 30 minutes outside downtown Sacramento to try it.
The tuna tartar appetizer was very good and I like my mangoneta cocktail.
But my tuna salad had no flavor whatsoever and my husband's Ceasars salad with salmon was not impressive at all.
Maybe other dishes that we didnt try would be better??

Have been enjoying this restaurant since the location downtown Sacramento. Now in Elk Grove New staff (Lexi manager) , didn't have the best telephone etiquette.She stressed brunch would be over at 3:00 that was fine since I am here quite often let's say maybe twice a month. I request Andre's section my regular wait staff, he was off this weekend. I noticed it wasn't as packed as usual and staff was short. I invited the pastor and wife along with 10 other guests. We arrived at 2:15 Lexi was behind the bar talking, the table was not ready to seat us. It took another 25 minutes for her to clean and set up. We were seated at 2:54. At 3:08 I was told I couldn't order my usual salmon hash because brunch ended. Two other guest ordered salmon burger, the waiter Andie said the restaurant ran out of salmon to make burgers. This never happened under previous manager. I opted not to eat and just sat and enjoyed my guest.

Took my kid here for their 21st bday. The food was really good. Market price on lobster seemed reasonable enough compared to other fine dining in area. Smoked Old Fashion cocktail was quite the experience (never had a drink served in a smokey belljar), passion lemon drop was super tasty. Service was a tad slow but still above average with great suggestions. Portions were larger than expected, plenty of left overs.

I like their outdoor dining area, which is perfect when the weather is good, or the comfortable dining room when I want the air conditioning. The enthusiastic customer service and delicious food are also very attractive to me. The parking lot is clean and safe. However, the section in front of Station 16 is smaller and super busy at night! All of my friends enjoyed their visit. I'm sure we will be back soon!

Very average. Food was subpar and service was good although slow at times. Calamari was tough but very tasty, NY steak was a poor quality cut and tough, ahi salad was fresh but fish was tough and dressing was bland, scallop dish was very good, lobster roll was good but not great. Would I be back, doubtful. Probably a better place for cocktails and appetizers...

Me and my family come here often. My family and I always get great service at this restaurant. If you come here to Elk Grove location and get served by Nicole she is awesome and knows how to make you feel comfortable and her personality is amazing. My family and I loved her and the restaurant. All the staff are amazing and on point. I didn’t meet the Manager but I did meet the owner and he was an amazing person who made sure we were attended to and well taken care of. This is my go to place with my family. Again I just wanted to say that this place is Amazing. To all the people that work there, keep up the amazing work and Hospitality.

Came here with a group of friends for lunch. It was ok. The Kumamoto oysters were just ok - mignonette sauce tasted like it was home-made and not made by a professional chef. I was looking forward to this since I enjoyed them during my days in Bodega Bay / Petaluma - definitely not worth the price. Ordered steamed clams and it came out extremely late - waitress asked me twice if I already received it. When the clams finally came out it was extremely salty. I still ate it though it was not enjoyable. My ginger mango mule was ok but without alcohol as a mocktail it does not live up to its price. The service waiters and waitresses were great and outdoor seating was ok. Overall I would say my experience at this establishment was “just ok.” Sorry - try harder next time.

The server basically called my husband and I old to our faces because she didn't understand a word that we had said. The food was really delicious though I just didn't care for the attitude of our server.
