Fabulous meal. We enjoyed the French Bistro vibe and excellent food so much that we came back and brought friends. The duck confit egg rolls and smoked trout potato pancake were excellent, and we each enjoyed wonderful entrees, Salmon, Lobster Ravioli, Filet Mignon, and Lamb Loin. The service staff is attentive and anticipating. Even though we live on the west side we will be making the journey to come here often.

Marty is a fantastic waiter! I noticed all of the staff were really on top of things and friendly, on one of the craziest nights of the year no less. Season’s has really come a long way and is one of my favorite restaurants now. The chef and cooks are knocking it out of the park. Their ice cream is homemade and some of the best you’ll have.

Wait staff needs training to improve the fine dining experience. We had to ask for most things. Was not offered wine list, coffee with desert and waiter made us feel rushed and entrée was offered before we were done with our salads. I really enjoyed the food quality and the ambience. Please train your staff!
