We went to Seasons 52 in Chestnut Hill to celebrate a family reunion (6 adults, four children). This has become an annual traditional for us to have our "fancy" dinner at Seasons 52 when we're all in town , and the food was fantastic. Our server was highly attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. A few members of the group ordered the roasted rainbow trout and had asked for the fish to be cooked a little less than what what's typically done, and their dishes came just as requested. From the ambiance to the apps/entrees to the desserts, everything was fantastic! Thank you, Seasons 52... we'll be back again next year!
