Always an amazing meal. Try to eat here at least once a month. Best calamari anywhere. I had scallops and they were fantastic. I’ve also loved the braised short ribs. Carrie, our server was fantastic. I just wish they would bring back the salted caramel budino. The chocolate is really good as well.

I scheduled me 65th birthday party with friends and family... party of nine. I asked to be seated in a back room or table by the wall since I am hearing impaired. Your staff put us in a private room which I so appreciated!! The chef came and visited with us. The starters came out all at the same time which was perfect. All of my party loved their entrees which were cooked to perfection. Fun desserts with champagne toast and coffee. I chose Seasons 52 because I have never been disappointed with their food or service. Thank you so much for a wonderful evening!!
