    We have been to Seasons 52 on many occasions for happy hour and/or dinner. Each time we have had a wonderful experience. The food is delicious, and the cocktails are excellent. They also have a variety of wines and include pairing suggestions on the menu. The prices are very reasonable, too. Lastly, the service has always been friendly and professional. I definitely recommend Seasons 52.

    The food was amazing, service was excellent. It was cold in there because they had the doors open. Could have been warmer on a chilly day.

    This is real, authentic Italian pasta, the best you’ll find in the south coast area. It seriously tastes just like pasta you’d find at a nice place in Italy. The ragu is my favorite. In my opinion the prices for pasta are a little high for such a casual place, but I keep coming back, so clearly it’s worth it. The service is always very good as well. The patio is nice with a fire pit and good heaters. It’s in the camp which provides nice ambiance, but parking is a nightmare. It took us 15 minutes to valet.
