This place was awesome. The service was impeccable. I didn’t like the food choices. They seemed very travel like, foods. They had a couple extra “fancier” dishes, but a lot of it was hamburgers or sandwiches of that sort. I did like the heaters on the outside. It was nice to be eating alfresco when I was a little chilly. And just being able to eat in that historical building was pretty nice. Fun for a casual date.

Comfortable and casual (with a capital "C" for each).
Absolutely loved the tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich. -- and the choice of jazz as ambience was well chosen.

This was my first time dining at this restaurant. It was a Holiday Celebration Lunch. My staff was impressed with the intimate setting, the variety of food selections, and the wine and alcohol offerings. The staff was expedient and friendly. I will effeminately return for other local occasions.

Underneath the great dome of LA’s Union station is a throwback restaurant from 100 years ago. Quiet and simple restaurant inside such an iconic building. Enjoy the American food and drinks.

I had a reservation for 8 for a business lunch. When I got to the restaurant, it was closed due to a special event. We ended up sitting in the bar across the station and the bartender took good care of us.
A call that my reservation would not be honored would have been nice…

Traxx offers good value for the money in an historic setting amid the vaulted ceilings of LA’s Union Station. The companion bar across the way makes good cocktails. They are open 11 to 8 and Traxx is for lunch or an early dinner.

Traxx is listed on some sites as an "elegant restaurant" it is not. Has potential but is basically a quick bite type of situation. Menu is rather limited in fine food choices, and seating is that of a fast food joint. Location is great and service is pretty nice. Could be so much more.
