\"St.St. Charles Station<\/a> is a supper club-themed restaurant serving Wisconsin and New Orleans cuisines and housed with Ollie’s inside the building that was once Liliana’s.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The menu is divided into four main sections: land, sea, Wisco sides and Nola sides. There are so many sides that there’s a dish called “I’m here for the sides” ($16 for two, $21 for three, $26 for four).<\/p>\n

Perhaps my favorite was the onion hay ($7) because it tasted like Outback Steakhouse’s Bloomin’ Onion. Meanwhile, the cheddar grits ($7) were dense but still tasty, and the sauce for the Wisconsin mac ($9) was a little watery but had a good flavor from the mix of six cheeses.<\/p>\n

\"St.Other sides include shrimp etouffee ($11) and corn maque choux ($7).<\/p>\n

The entrees include several steaks. The bone-in ribeye ($47) was so thin that it reminded me of a steak you would find in a diner. It was good but super salty, which I hope was a one-time mistake.<\/p>\n

The filet mignon ($40) fared better, as it was tender, delicious and not over-salted. I also liked the braised short rib ($34) even though it was shredded and very lean (meaning, no fat to it).<\/p>\n

A fish fry ($20) is available in the sea section, but I chose the salmon ($27), which was dry and missing the dill herb butter.<\/p>\n

\"St.You can’t go wrong with any of the soups. The roasted tomato ($6) was delightfully creamy, and the French onion ($10) was loaded with onions in an excellent broth.<\/p>\n

However, I was most impressed with the mulligatawny ($9), which sported a delicious curry flavor and perfectly meshed the apples, rice, crema and herbs.<\/p>\n

St. Charles Station is open for dinner Wednesday through Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
