Only my second time dining at ninety acres and just like the first time, it was an absolute delight. Our waiter tonight was Andres and he was a gem. I want to give Andres a special shoutout for being so special and such a pleasure. He was so attentive and went above and beyond to make sure our dinner was nothing less than perfection! Thank you so much for an amazing dinner. Will be back as soon as possible.

My family and I have gone to THE STATION for many, many years. A girlfriend of mine had given me a 50 gift certificate from there for my August birthday. So, with my adult son & his wife we 3 ate there on a foggy, gloomy Saturday night. My son & I can rarely resist the delicious pasta bolognese and his wife got the hangar steak special. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals, our great service and our conversation. They had a Station coffee at the end which they loved and I got a cafe latte. This place is always dependable for lunch or for dinner and its truly one of my very top favorites!
