| - This is the second time that I've dined at Seasons 52, and for my brother, it his one of his top choices when in town. The FOOD is EXCELLENT, and the wait staff is wonderful. If you'd like the best waiter, request Tommy. His knowledge of the menu items, his attentive service, and vibrant personality make for more than just a dining experience, but an evening of enjoyment & a perfect meal for everyone at the table. His wine suggestions were spot on, as well.
The ambiance is warm, with much of the interior in dark wood, divided well, and some private booths. The long open kitchen, with flaming grills, lines one side of the large restaurant. So, if you're a foodie, you can be seated near the "chef action." I also noticed a private room for events.
The FLATBREAD starter is a must; thin crispy crust, and (our choice) Garlic Pesto Chicken is enough to feed 4 people, as an appetizer, and at least one person as an entrée.
My brother had the ASIAN-GLAZED CHILEAN SEA BASS (with
black rice, snow peas & shiitake mushrooms, topped with a garnish of micro wasabi sprouts). He said that it was light & flakey, it was nicely glazed, and would recommend.
One of the surprise stand-outs was the MEATLOAF. Two slices, crosshatched from the FIRE GRILL, were topped with a thin coating of special BBQ GLAZE. This did NOT taste like your ordinary meatloaf. It had a flavor-packed blend of tiny, shredded carrots, mushrooms, onions, breadcrumbs, and herbs mixed well with delicious, quality, grass-fed sirloin. The side dishes were Yukon Mashed Potatoes & Green String Beans (which they serve very al dente).
If you prefer your green beans soft, you'll have to ask. This is a seasonal restaurant that serves the freshest food, the freshest way.
I had the PORK TENDERLOIN which was Wood Grilled, moist, and my vegetables were the green beans, cut, with crumbled, crispy bacon, and a few pearl onions just for flavor. The pork tenderloin rested against spectacular sweet potatoes. I kept thinking, "sweet, savory, sweet, yum." Great combo of flavors: recommend
The biggest surprise dish of this night, was the SHRIMP & GRITS, which may sound crazy, but it was an entrée of creamy, slightly cheesy, not seafood-tasting deliciousness! An ample amount of shrimp, with a delicious taste of bacon, covers an amazing blend of grits and polenta that are cooked in a creamy, slightly cheddar cheese. Definitely Recommend
And now, for the FAMOUS SHOT GLASS DESSERTS: You'll have to see my video, where Tommy explains each of them.
I tried (& recommend) all of the following:
"MOCHA MACCHIATO" ~ Caramel is topped with a layer of vanilla bean mousse, then chocolate cake is topped with mocha mousse and finished with a swirl of whipped cream and a white chocolate straw.
"KEY LIME PIE" ~ Layers of graham cracker crumbs and fresh key lime filling are topped with a flame toasted swirl of meringue.
"BELGIUM CHOCOLATE S'MORE" ~ Delicious chocolate cake topped with rocky road mousse, a marshmallow, and a half chocolate-dipped graham cracker for garnish
"CARROT CAKE" ~ It tastes just like a perfect carrot cake, with a pinch of cinnamon and a layer of cream cheese frosting in the middle!
"CHOCOLATE, PEANUT BUTTER TORTE" ~ Two layers of chocolate cake with peanut butter mousse including crushed peanuts, topped with a swirl of whipped cream and a peanut tuile in the top for a delicious garnish.
"PECAN PIE" ~ This one is the sweetest. On top of vanilla mouse is a layer of caramel and pecans which is topped with a swirl of whipped cream and a pecan half.
"RASPBERRY CHOCOLATE CHIP CANNOL ~ This is the only one that I forgot to try, and it probably would've been my favorite. It was a raspberry and chocolate chip mousse, with raspberry coulis layered throughout, and it had a miniature cinnamon cannoli shell in the top.
Everything there has always been fantastic!
