Landrys seafood...Definitely isn't the food that's the draw...it the whole experience. The cost od the food does not reflect the quality of the meal. High prices for average food. Steak was so scorched and uneven temp. Artichoke dip made me choke on the fiber. We had dessert cake...wish we had passed and just bought a slice at the grocery store. Way too sweet.

Such a fun place to take the kids while you wait on the Polar Express train. Special holiday drink menu for everyone, the hot cocoa is amazing. Nachos with pineapple salsa was so good. Pasta portions are for two or three people.

When it’s decorated for Christmas (Sleigh Shed) it’s absolutely beautiful! Kind workers. Great cocktails even though they’re a bit pricey. Decent beer list. The food however-yikes. Not a lot of choices. Burgers were so salty! Kids cheese pizza for $8 that was so small and looked like it came out of a freezer meal. Idk what the disconnect is but they could really try to pep up the quality of the food here. 🤷🏻♀️

2.5 hour wait on a Monday night. Mediocre food that came out at different times. Just a very poor experience. Definitely will not be returning

This place is decorated so beautiful for Christmas!!! I love a good pop up theme. I visited here yesterday with my daughter and niece unexpectedly since we were already in the area. I’m happy we were able to get seated easily and it wasn’t no wait during that time. We went on a Thursday around 3:30pm. We just got drinks because we were already expecting to go eat somewhere else later. My daughter and niece didn’t like the hot chocolate though so they didn’t drink it. I asked the waitress if she can take it back and if they can get them something else. I was suprised that they didn’t add the soda to the bill, so I only paid for my drink:) That was nice of them to do that because kids could be so picky lol. I definitely will be coming back but maybe just with some friends instead. LOL

I am so happy I stumbled upon this restaurant! My meal (brat burger) was delicious, the service was GREAT, and the Christmas decor seriously made my whole day!

Made my annual holiday trip to the Sleigh Shed holiday upgrade from the normal Train Shed decor. They have a special holiday menu for drinks both alcoholic and NA. Not much changed in the food menu, but the food is very good as well as service.
NOTE: I have only been here for lunch but I think the menu is the same. I had the flatbread as well as sandwich and the proportion was enough for me to have leftovers.
Holiday decorations are truly top notch. If you wait until dinner, you can enjoy more of the holiday festivities around Union Station

📜✨ A Letter From Santa to All the Good Boys & Girls Seeking Holiday Cheer at the Sligh Shed ✨📜
Ho, ho, ho!
My dearest grown-up boys and girls,
After checking my Nice List (twice, of course), I couldn’t help but notice you’ve all worked VERY hard this year. And as your Jolly Old Elf, I feel it is my official duty to recommend a proper spot for merriment, magic, and a well-deserved holiday cocktail.
Allow me to present:
🎄 The Sligh Shed — Union Station’s Enchanted Holiday Pop-Up Bar 🎄
Formerly known as The Train Shed, this cozy corner has been transformed into a festive wonderland fit for elves, reindeer, and responsible adults alike.
Upon arrival, my helpers at the host stand (the friendliest in all the land!) whisked us right to a table for a sleighful of warming appetizers and delightful drinks. The atmosphere sparkles brighter than Rudolph’s nose — twinkling lights, cheerful décor, and enough holiday spirit to make even the Grinch crack a smile.
Now, listen closely:
They validate parking for three whole hours.
That’s right — three hours of guilt-free, worry-free, jingle-all-the-way sipping. Consider it my early gift to you.
We began with the crispy, piping-hot fries, which, if I’m honest, would make even Mrs. Claus abandon her cookie tray. My gin and tonic was perfectly mixed — and for all you tonic enthusiasts on the Nice List, fear not: the tonic is top-notch.
My dear Mr. Claus (you may know him as Justin) indulged in the Crisp Kringle — bacon fat-washed bourbon, maple, allspice, and candied bacon. Warm, cozy, and exactly what I’d serve in the North Pole Lounge. Naturally, he followed it with the S’more the Merrier — hot cocoa, marshmallow, chocolate, and s’mores whiskey, a drink that tastes like Christmas morning wrapped in a hug.
We lingered happily, never rushed, watching the parade of children and parents skittering by in their matching holiday pajamas on their way to Union Station festivities. Pure seasonal joy!
So, my festive friends, if you’ve been good this year (and even if you’ve been “North Pole naughty”—I don’t judge), I wholeheartedly encourage you to treat yourself.
The Sligh Shed holiday pop-up bar is a magical stop for warm drinks, cozy bites, and the kind of cheer that keeps your spirit bright.
Ho ho hope to see you there!
🎅✨
Santa Claus

We had a party of 8. Waited for 1 hour 20 minutes. They sat us at 2 separate tables and then less than 5 minutes they sat another party of 8 at a table together right next to us. I asked if we could be moved and was told no. Atmosphere may be fun but the management sucks! Will not be back!

Great atmosphere. Middle to upper class dining experience. Only had an appetizer and a couple of drinks and the price added up quickly. This is a big city experience, but with that come big city prices.
Great selection of beer, spirits, and cocktail options.
