Seasons 52

One of the things I like about this place is they don’t over do the portions. You get a sufficient taste of a dish without getting halfway through and wondering if you should push on and finish it, or stop and take it home for leftovers. The vegetables are fresh, the sauces are not overbearing and, if you’ve look at any of the pictures for this place, you can see their desserts come in oversized shot glasses. It’s enough for a few bites and they are the perfect sweet complement to your dinner.
I don’t go here often enough and I’ve never just stopped in for a drink so I could enjoy the piano player they have sometimes.

My girlfriend and I are self proclaimed foodies. We take dinner very seriously. Seasons 52 is our new favorite restaurant. Great staff from top to bottom, excellent food and wine selection. I would suggest the scallops or lamb chops for dinner. All of the desserts are absolutely incredible and yes I’ve had all of them. Wine flight and flatbread is a great value as well. My only criticism is the beer selection, luckily beer market is down the street

Great atmosphere for a Friday night with the girls! Great bar, flatbreads, and selective seafood inspired choices. I’ve only experienced the winter menu, can’t wait to see what the summer menu is like!

I have been to this location four times now and have had on-​the-​mark food and service every time. I highly recommend the mushroom bisque to vegetarians. Greek salad is also delightful. I always go for the pecan pie dessert. Our server tonight was Samantha she was absolutely delightful, and so sweet!

Went here for lunch on Thursday with a coworker. I have been to this location at least 3 times, once downtown, and once in Oak Brook. It doesn’t matter where you go — they are all consistent across the board, which is nice. Not excellent food, but really good. I like that the calories are reasonable and the desserts small (so you can get more than one). I got the sesame salmon salad with pineapple, mango, and jicama salad. Any of the salads — steak or tuna — are solid. The flatbreads are a good option too for an app. My coworker got the steak and Bleu cheese one for her entrée. We also got the roasted Brussels sprouts with bacon and Parmesan to share. They were crispy and seasoned well. No desserts this time, but the pumpkin pie and pecan pie are my favorites. Also good for work meetings — they let you sit without making you feel rushed.

What a fantastic experience! I have a problem with avocado. Every time I eat them, I get sick. I ordered the Mahi Mahi tacos here, without realizing that they have avocado in them until after my first bite. Our server, Christov, took them back, checked with me on the type of allergy that I have to see if I would be ok (I will) replaced the tacos without avocado and comped desserts for us. I have had recent similar experiences that were handled terribly by the staff and establishment. Seasons 52 went above and beyond, even though the fault was not theirs. Christov and Seasons exceeded my expectations for customer service in this type of situation. Truly professional. Thanks!
Oh, and the food was de-​lish too :)

Let me preface this by saying that I had a 4 star experience at the Oakbrook location.
However, when I walked in to this location today with my coworkers, for my birthday, I was not impressed. The hostesses seemed like they were asleep. They did not smile one time. They seemed to not care about what was happening.
We could not hear our server at all. I know it was a bit loud but she could’ve raised her voice. No one came around to fill /​refill water and drinks until we asked and the glasses were totally empty.
The food I had was mediocre at best. I must have ordered «the wrong thing». What was funny was that initially they brought the wrong entrée to me… not what I ordered. I knew right away and sent it back, but maybe I should’ve kept it. The side dish was bad. The «char grilled vegetable» tasted like ash and looked like vomit and was ice cold. So strange. This was clearly intentional but was not good at all. (Nor did I feel it was described this way on the menu.) Another person in my party was also brought the wrong food.
Needless to say I was disappointed with the experience and honestly embarrassed that I chose this spot for my birthday. It’s not inexpensive and now I feel like I wasted my time and my manager’s money, since she always treats for the birthdays.
I’d give the oakbrook location a try again. But definitely will not return to this one.

I’ve been to Seasons 52 now in two different states and both times had a great experience. They offer options for the healthy eater but also for someone looking to indulge. The salmon and chicken I tried were both delicious, and the flat breads are a hit for sharing. Don’t be alarmed if you order a glass of wine and they bring the bottle over for a tasting– its part of their serving charm– for a second I panicked and thought I mis spoke. Great option when traveling as it seems to be consistent across the country!

Excellent food menu, great options across the different categories. I had a nice pork tenderloin and my wife had chicken. Very tasty and proper portion sizes. Desserts are the usual small portion so you can get two — more than enough.
Issue 1 — the beer selection is uninspiring and the lack draft. They go seasonal with the food, do the same with the beer. And stop falling into the beer = ale (IPA, PA, A) and get some other darker varieties on there.
Issue 2 — valet parking in the suburbs should be banned. There are ample parking spots and I don’t feel the need to tip someone to park my car in the lot. If they would unblock the last row, the need goes away. Very annoying.

Seasons 52 will guaranteed give the best service. We were greeted right away, treated very well, and served with the upmost quality. Though my dad’s filet mignon, which he usually loves at this spot, tasted a little too salty that night, our server took it back and took it off the bill, as all nicer restaurants should do. Other than this mishap, we had a great experience. The ambience is intimate and elegant, with dim lights and beautiful decorations. Wine selections are great here also.
As for food, I really like how the menu is seasonal. It really makes me feel like I’m eating the freshest of foods. Brussel sprouts were pretty tasty and crispy. Salmon was excellently prepared. The second filet mignon dish that came out (the non salty one) was also excellent and flavorful.
Overall, we had an amazing experience here and would love to be back! Only downsides are that it can get really crowded, and you will probably need to get valet parking!

This was my first visit to seasons 52. we came to celebrate a graduation and they made our guest of honor feel special with a card and great dessert! the food and wine selection was all phenomenal and the service was just as good. Jen our server gave great recommendations and topped it all off with a smile! 5 stars! Ill definitely be back!

Delicious food and great ambience and service !!
I made a reservation for my husband and myself for his Birthday. One of us got stuck at work (I know very sad :() and I had to call to push the reservation time further and the lady who picked up the call was very nice and she told us to come whenever we could and she would accommodate us. We ended up an hour late and we got a table with just 5 – 10 mins of wait time even when the place was packed.
Now coming to the food, We ordered Oak grilled artichokes for appetizer and cedar plank roasted salmon and cedar plank roasted tofu with vegetables for main course. The artichokes and tofu were good, you get what is promised and tastes really good. But omg! The Salmon! It was the best we ever had. The spices and the butter and smokiness of it, just everything about it was right, it was melt-​in-​mouth. I would definitely go back here just for the salmon. And mind you, this coming from someone who is not a fan of seafood is HUGE!
Our server, Anissa, was a very nice lady. I told her that we are here for my husbands birthday which I had put down on the reservation too so she already knew. So she made a nice toast of champagne and helped us choose from the many cute little cups of sinful sweet deliciousness. I dont remember the exact names, but I got the mocha and my husbamd got Belgian, both were to the point.
Overall, AWESOME EXPERIENCE! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND and Will Go Back.

Another very good meal at Seasons 52. We dined at 5:30 on Thanksgiving. Although the restaurant was packed, service was very good and all of our meals were spot on. For four people dining with one shared flatbread, one salad, four entrees and 6 drinks, the bill totaled $ 186. Good value in my book.

This place is the kind of restaurant you visit for a business meeting or to impress that special someone. Not typically the kind of place I like to visit, but it was enjoyable. Very pricey as well.
The atmosphere is cozy, yet professional. Casual, yet classy.
The staff were very friendly and courteous. Very prompt as well.
The food was delicious and from what I can tell fairly healthy and fresh. I had the rack of lamb which included mashed potatoes and carrots. It was very tasty. The pomegranate sauce gave it a very sweet flavor.
For an appetizer we had the garlic chicken flatbread and chicken skewers. I highly recommend both of them.
Their menu does rotate from week to week and month to month so the options I described above may not be available.
All in all a nice place to visit, but pretty standard faire. It’s a safe place to go for special occasions. Otherwise I found it kind of dull. But that’s just my personal opinion. No fault of the restaurant.
I give it four stars for the quality of food and atmosphere. But it was nothing that blew me away.

Heard this place was not good when first opened, approx. 1 yr ago (???) but still wanted to try it give my own opinion. Was not disappointed. In fact saw other coworkers at the place during lunch, so must be good.
Ordered the ginseng chicken porridge, recommended by a coworker. It’s a comfort food, especially on a cold winter day or if not feeling well. Couldn’t taste ginseng but the porridge creamy with shredded chicken that’s just perfect. Not dry at all.
Seafood pancake — came out on a cast iron, gigantic, krispy and so yummy ! they didn’t skimp on the seafood. Every bite I got a bit of octopus and scallion
Will definitely go back to try more items

So I’ve ate here a couple of times and they never disappoint. The food is all seasonal, and all «healthier» which is always nice.
BUT — I just found out they have a Happy Hour! What!!! They do $ 5 small plates and have some drink specials. Absolutely worth it — the highlights from what we had for small plates were the scallops and the meatballs.
I didn’t have a cocktail that was on special, but the Perfect Storm was really nice. They had a seasonal Pumpkin pisco sour — which I thought sounded really interesting… but didn’t taste so great. Gotta go more sweet with pumpkin in my opinion.
They have mini shot glass desserts which are always great. The perfect amount really. I ALWAYS get the cannoli, but I tried the amores this last time and I actually really enjoyed it.
Now that I know abou the happy hour I’ll be back more often!
**Also, not sure of the hours but they have a piano player IN their little bar area and that is totally a perk in my opinion

TL;DR Very healthy, pretty gimmicky, mediocre craft beer offerings, no taps, BUSY, great service
We called on a Saturday morning and were told they had no open reservations for 4 that evening, later in the day we called back and they had one open up! We showed up a few minutes early and were promptly seated.
Our server was very personable and explained the concept, everything on the menu is low calorie, cool, got it.
We started with some beverages and a steak and blue cheese flatbread. The flatbread was excellent! I normally don’t like blue cheese but this one blended very well with the rest of the dish. 7.5÷10
We started with salads and soup;
Chili — it was alright, not much going on, regretted not getting something else ³⁄₁₀
Warm spinach salad — DELICIOUS! Bacon is great, lots of flavor out of this bad boy ⁸⁄₁₀
Field greens salad — standard issue salad, middle of the road ⁵⁄₁₀
Then came the dinner;
Turkey Skewer — This dish was all sorts of mediocre, not much to call home about, would NOT order again ³⁄₁₀
Copper River Salmon — AMAZING! This dish was sent straight to us from the god of fish, the salmon had a flavor that none of us could get over, it was the most salmon tasting salmon I have ever had, such a rich full flavor, cooked perfectly, amazing ¹⁰⁄₁₀
We of course had to get dessert because why not!
We had the key lime pie cup (7.5÷10), smores cup (⁸⁄₁₀), cheesecake cup (²⁄₁₀), salted caramel something cup (⁶⁄₁₀)
A pretty solid dinner effort but the reason I say this place is gimmicky is that when you do the full multi course meal spread it ends up being somewhere around 1500 – 2500 calories per person, it’s sort of like when an HVAC company sends you a flyer for $ 29.99 summer tune up but that just gets them in the door, by the time you are all said and done they have overhauled your system for $ 500+. So in that way it’s very similar to most restaurants, you build your own healthy. If you want low calorie don’t get the steak fried steak, get the grilled chicken salad with dressing on the side, no croutons or cheese.

I’ll definitely be back. Great restaurant and even better service! The menu had a lot of good choices. The price point was reasonable even though the food was great. It’s great to know of more restates with healthy food options that are tasty.

This was my second time coming here and I had another great experience!
Tonight was girls night so there was lots of wine and gossiping involved. Our waiter was very patient giving us our time to decide on our meals and he wasn’t pushy when we had been sitting there for a while.
I’ve been here on a date before and it can be quite a romantic restaurant as well. It’s decorated nicely and dimly lit. I really like the atmosphere here!
I made our reservation on Open Table and the restaurant called to confirm w me so I appreciated that.
We chose this place because we are trying to eat healthy and everything is under 500 calories. I got the Ahi Tuna Tartare and a side of risotto. Have never tried either one of these foods before and I thought it was cooked beautifully.
We all tried a dessert which they bring to you on this beautiful platter that makes it impossible to say no to and they are served in what looks like double shot glasses. Gotta love it.
We had an early dinner reservation so it wasn’t that busy yet but they do get busy so call ahead. They have complimentary valet too but I’ve always been able to find a spot.

Excellent service seems to be a theme… from the valets to desk hostess and waitstaff. I like it…
I have been here a couple times in the last few weeks… and it should have been sooner. Once was for lunch and just recently for a Thur night dinner.
Very tasty food and nice ambiance. It’s casually elegant and very relaxing… could be considered romantic as well.
Perhaps it’s the live jazzy piano from the bar that seems to provide a better soundtrack. There is a definite lack of flatware clatter and conversational noise… but you don’t notice that… you just feel like you’re in your own social bubble.
Like it! =)
