Park Station

Really nice brunch, the sausage gravy was very solid as well as the bottomless mimosa! Thanks for a great experience.

I have eaten there twice in the past two months. Had the bison burger, ahi tuna salad (not fresh or good) and truffle fries the first time and ribs the second time (wife had burger). First visit food was good, burger was cooked well and fries were awesome. Went back this past Saturday night and food was awful! The ribs were honestly the worst ribs I have ever had, still want to barf even thinking about them! They were fatty and super chewy, only ate half of them. Wife got the burger, medium well and it was so bloody, I don’t think they even cooked it. Needless to say, I am very disappointed and will not be going back to Park Station again.

Make sure to give yourself time when it is busy.

My friend and I went to Park Station in Winter Park, FL for Sunday brunch on 2÷21÷2016. We sat at a table outside. My friend ordered a ribeye Steak (Medium Well) and eggs, on the brunch menu for $ 15.50. When our food came to the table she cut into her steak and it was rare. The server took the steak back to have the chef cook it longer. 10 minutes later they brought out the same steak but this time it was way overcooked. Also, on the plate was bacon, which my friend does not eat any pork whatsoever. I asked that the server please just get a plate and remove the bacon from her plate and I explained she does not eat pork. The server got a plate and proceeded to reach his bare hands onto her plate to slide the bacon onto the extra plate. At this time I explained that the steak was overcooked and she did not want it but we would gladly pay for the eggs and potatoes and my meal which was fine. The owner of the restaurant came out to speak with us and explained he would be making another steak for her. She explained that she really did not want the steak and she was full. He brought her the steak anyway in a to go box. When the bill came I noticed that the steak and eggs was priced $ 17.50 on the bill instead of the $ 15.50 as it was on the menu so I asked the owner (who was outside already) and showed him the check and menu prices side by side. At this point he yelled to the server to take off the entire check and stormed off. The server came back to the table and explained that we would not have to pay for the bill and lunch was on them today. I apologized and handed the server a $ 20 tip. I exited to use the restroom and when I got back to the table my friend advised me that the server came back to the table with the bill because the owner had «changed his mind» and now we have to pay but he gave us a 20% discount on this bill. It was the same bill and the price of the steak was still $ 17.50 instead of the menu price at $ 15.50. I asked for the manager and a woman came out and advised that she does not have authority over the owner so she went to get him again. When he came back to the table he publicly embarrassed us by taking my water directly out of my mouth as i was drinking it, putting his hands in my face and causing a scene a by screaming at us that we were «scammers» and that we have done this before and violently yelling at us saying was going to «use force». I was mortified at how I was treated by the owner of this restaurant, the quality of service and the unsanitary food handling.

Tried this place twice. It’s just not good. It looks like it should be but it isn’t and for what it is, very overpriced. The fish tacos had no flavor, fried little fish nuggets. Nothing special. The burger wasn’t good either. We all left feeling sick to our stomachs. I don’t know who they have cooking there but they need to get someone good in there. My daughter took one bite and literally spit it out.
The fries were good. The waiter gave us a discount without us mentioning anything, which was nice, but I would never go back.

We were strolling through Winter Park before catching a flight back to Seattle. It was Valentine’s Day Sunday and the streets were crowded as temps had climbed back into the mid-60’s after a very cool, un-​Florida like week. We spied an open table outside Park Station. We spoke with the very personable hostess who informed us that the kitchen was backed up and food would take a little longer to get to the table. «…I don’t want you to get mad at me and write a bad review on Unilocal». We sat down and the decision was a good one. The outside table was a joy as we watched the smartly attired (and otherwise) stroll by. Our waiter was attentive and not overbearing and drinks arrived quickly and water glasses were kept full.
Food was superb. Two of had the corned beef and turkey Reuben which lived up to the claim of meat «piled high». Eggs Benedict and a Huumous salad received thumbs up as well. Park Station was an enjoyable meal. As travelers dining in a new surrounding, we appreciated that the attention to detail was impressive despite being a very busy day. Food was well prepared and portions generous. We come to Florida each year and will keep Park Station on our «go to» list!

So Park Station Bistro on Park Ave in Winter Park is so worth the visit! Very very dog friendly! All of the staff was so kind and attentive. Now the food: I had the Bison Burger and think it just might be the best burger I have ever had! Nathan had the Bacon Grilled Cheese and loved it. Jon had the Kobe Burger and said it was excellent. Tip: Forgo the side salad and get their Truffle Fries!!!

Breakfast is amazing and the atmosphere is always inviting! I’m both a wine and beer drinker so I appreciate the fine choices.

Great food and great atmosphere at a reasonable price. There are some many pretentious expensive restaurants on the ave that really don’t compare. I usually sit at the bar with friends and sample new wines recommended by the very knowledgeable bar staff. When I first started coming to Park Station I would people watch at the bar and everyone in the place seemed to know each other and the bar tender. I like a place where the staff and owners know the patrons by name and vice-​versa. I went last weekend for brunch and was presently surprised with bottomless mimosas!

We stopped in here for a Saturday Brunch after the Farmer’s Market. We found a seat outdoors on the sidewalk, perfect spot for people watching! A brass band was in practice across the street which added to the already awesome ambiance of the place.
Our service was pretty poor, our waiter was hasty which made me feel a little rush. Our coffee was served without sugar or cream, even after asking a second time. The brunch was tasty, and on point. I ordered the Park Station breakfast, which was Biscuits and Gravy, 2 eggs (over easy, always!) and rye toast. Over all I think they nailed this classic breakfast. I’d like to come back and try out their dinner menu.

Brunch was great and it is hard not to love endless mimosas.

Stopped by for dinner, great ambiance, nice waiter, good wine. We ordered two flatbreads. I had the The Pefefect Pig, perfect it was not, cheaply made flatbreads with little topping. I’m sure 711 has a better flatbread, second dish another Flatbread another disappointment. For the location they better amp up there food. Would not recommend at this time. Visited there other location NOPA not on park avenue, and food was just as bad. Not sure they should be in the restaurant business.

Great food, wounderful service, very freindly people.
Beautiful area of Winter Park, very nice environment.
We decided to eat outside, but if you are not a pet lover; I will suggest to sit inside. I love pets, but I don’t believe they belong in a restaurant, where most likely a lot of customers won’t feel confortable eating around them. That is the reason I only gave 4 stars.

Overall, four stars for our first visit to Park Station.
I did make one mistake, I’ll admit. I saw a Reuben on the menu, and I stopped reading right there. That’s what I was really craving — a delicious Reuben and some fries.
Well, it turns out that the Reuben isn’t really a Reuben. It’s the Park Station approximation of a Reuben (Reuben-​esque? heh.) with some artistic license taken in the inclusion of a kale coleslaw instead of the usual sauerkraut. I would have known this, had I read the description more carefully.
The sweet coleslaw is a far cry from sauerkraut, and as such it transforms the sandwich into something completely different. It’s no longer a Reuben. If you were blindfolded and asked to «Name That Famous Sandwich», you would fail. It’s still a very good sandwich. It’s just not a Reuben.
Other than expecting a Reuben and technically not getting one (again, my fault for not reading the description more carefully), my only complaint with the sandwich was that it was a bit light on the corned beef. I would have loved to see it bulked up a little more. Otherwise, it was great. The truffle fries are fantastic, I know I’d never be able to walk in here again without ordering the fries.
There was a miscommunication somewhere along the line, and my order came out wrong. However, this was very quickly remedied. Then there was another miscommunication somewhere down the line, and one server asking another server to bring us our check resulted in no one bringing us our check at all. Eventually the first server came back and realized that we still didn’t have it, so he went back and got it for us.
There’s currently a 15% discount with Unilocal check-​in, so that’s a nice touch.

A new restaurant in Winter Park that I believe it has lived up to hype. The décor inside was elegant and stately. The staff was very friendly and so were the other guests. The bartender Blake was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. He was very patient and understanding with my idiosyncrasies. I will be back to eat again.

The reviews are very strange given the fantastic quality I received while dining here. I came in during brunch and it was a nice change of pace given that it wasn’t hugely busy.
I ordered the Park Station breakfast special which was biscuits, gravy, potatoes, salad, + 2 eggs. Wow, the quality was amazing! I loved everything on my plate (minus the salad but I’m just not big on raspberry vinaigrette). I also ordered a pumpkin spice cappuccino which was so flavorful. The service was phenomenal and I’ll definitely come back.
Highly recommend trying if you’re on park ave. Sitting outside was lovely! :)

Great food. I’m surprised by the previous reviews because the food was very high quality and prepared as ordered. I had the lamb burger with side salad; burger was cooked perfectly and the sauce was very tasty. My husband had the reuben, which is the best one he’s had on the ave.
What we experienced was a complete 180 from that. David and the team were very friendly and inviting. I’m a Park Avenue merchant and was back to my office within the hour satisfied so this will be a great place to bring my clients. Also, I can’t wait to try the brunch and breakfast items.

This was disappointing. We had high hopes. My wife ordered the hummus salad. Spinach, hummus and grape tomatoes. When she looked at it, laying on top was badly spoiled slick spinach. Also a couple more inside. She lost her appetite.
I ordered haddock. The serving of slaw salad also had the same bad spinach.
After pointing this out to the waitress, she apologized. One of the owners was chatting away at the bar with some girls and made no effort to speak with us. We will not go back.
Someone is not focused on serving quality meals!

My boyfriend and I are always looking for new brunch spots and this one didn’t disappoint. I only wish I had more time so I could have enjoyed more $ 10 bottomless mimosas.
We were one of the 1^st tables there after leaving the Briar Patch’s 30 minute wait line. It was a little awkeard at first as there was no music but that was fixed momentarily. They may have had just opened. Three of our party of 5 ordered mimosas and our server made sure they were never empty. Truly he did an amazing job.
Our food didn’t take long but when it arrived I was sure it was cold by the way the hollandaise looked, but I was pleasantly surprised. Everything really was great!
Brunch for 5 and bottomless mimosas for 3 for under $ 100 on Park Ave? Will definitely be returning. I’d like to see their nighttime bar scene.

It gets a two stars because if the enthusiastic servers, McKenna x2. We arrived her on a Sunday after seeing the wait for the Briar Patch was ridiculous.
I’m allergic to dairy but no alternatives are carried, only whole milk. In Winter Park a Breakfast place without a dairy alternative should have been our warning sign to leave. They have an array of cappuccinos that my friends ordered. 5 minutes later the table was told that the gas station machine they operate with was down so I can’t tell you if they were as good as they sounded.
One of the members of my party found a long blond hair in her French toast (we all have brown/​black hair). We were told they would show the chef. No manager addressed the issue. I see why the place was empty.
On a good note– the mango drink they offer was fantastic.
Steak was sub-​par by any standard. Two of us ordered the steak and eggs and we were both disappointed. It lacked flavor and the substance you would expect for a $ 25.00 breakfast plate.
Definitely a miss… Don’t bother.
