Seasons 52 — Restaurant in Paramus

Went there for the first time early in the week with an old coworker/friend. She recommended it as she has been there before with a few friends. It was very close to home so it was very convenient. The place is beautiful and clean. You can see the chefs cooking through the glass window. I had the filet mignon and lobster, which was perfectly cooked. The drinks- my the drinks were great! My favorite was the ginger mule but the strawberry basil - I think was a martini- was just as good if you have a sweet tooth. Had the watermelon and some sort of pink lemonade as well- both I believe had vodka in it, was ok. The ice seemed to water them down. But the mule was to die for. The appetizer we chose was a flatbread with chicken and it was absolutely delicious. Desert was the cutes thing. They bring it out to you to see and and it’s in mini glasses, with about 6 different options. One of them had a cannoli, that’s the one I had, and it was great!!! We ate good that day. Our waiter, Kevon, was super sweet and took the time to talk to us. Very nice guy and very good server.

That weekend I planned another reservation there for my daughter’s off to college dinner. Unfortunately, a few members could not make it, which reduced our party amount but the place did not disappoint, yet again. I specifically described that we were celebrating her and I requested Kevon to serve us again. The host made sure to take note on that and congratulated her and even shared that he graduated from the same school. The more she hears that others have been there and graduated from there, the less nervous she feels. I really appreciated that. Kevon took care of us once again and was very kind and courteous to us ladies. He made sure to congratulate my daughter as well. Service was perfect, yet again. The food, emasculate as before. My daughter, like most teens, loves nothing more than to eat great food. She was very happy with stuffed mushrooms, Mac and cheese and filet mignon and lobster. Of course she handed off her potatoes and asparagus to my mom. 😂 we shared some artichoke appetizer (I did not try it as I don’t like artichokes) but the family seemed happy. They ate the salmon dish, rainbow fish, and I had the filet mignon. everything was delicious and cooked perfectly. I had less alcohol this time 😂 as I was with family but I stuck to the ginger mule. We shared a tomato flatbread which of course was perfect. Dessert, I knew my family would love the size and presentation. Everyone loved the food and the family was happy to know that every dish served us no more than 600 calories. They also change the dishes by season- guess hence the name. And honestly speaking for the amount of food, drinks, dessert, appetizers- the price was perfect! Not expensive at all surprisingly. Great place, great food, great drinks, great service, great location (behind Eddie Vs at the Westfield mall)- I will definitely be back here again as it is...

My husband and I normally go to Seasons 52 on a regular basis and dine inside the restaurant and are quite happy and satisfied with their service and meals. Today, Hubby and I arrived at 6:35 and decided to dine outside. The Host did not recommend the 2 tables next to the door, but the one after the table that was next to the door. We sat and as we waited I noticed one couple was assigned to the 1st table by the door and then another couple at the other table by the door. They were waited on and received their water and drinks and appetizers. I decided to get up and walk back in the restaurant to the host and asked if my husband and I were forgotten. I then see how the host is telling our waitress something and she looked upset. When the waitress comes to us she apologizes as she did not know she had the table. Jenelly was very sweet and kind. The manager Neyda, came out and stated our 1st drinks were on the house. Hubby and I put in our order, appetizers and main course. My husband gets his appetizers first and I get mine 10mins later. I finished my appetizer about 7:05 and we get our meals at 7:50pm. My main meal was a raw Tuna Salad with grilled scallops and grilled shrimp on skewers. A whole 45 mins later mind you the 2 couples that were seated after us had finished their meals and left. The bill was ridiculous and I did not eat my main meal or scallops and shrimp. As I'm explaining to the Manager Neyda, how I felt regarding the late service, all she did was give me a 1 up eyebrow look as if I was exaggerating and was dismissive. That's when I told her I was not going to pay for my meal, which I did not get to eat and enjoy at the restaurant. I guess all she was worried about is sales and events. The executive Chef, Matthew Christopher was nice and gave a sincere apology. However, at that point I was HANGRY.... I left so dissatisfied and disappointed. Make sure if you sit outside to dine you're...

My party had Tenderloin salad x2, butternut squash gnocchi, wood grilled salmon, Philly cheesesteak flatbread, and pepperoni flatbread…. First the flatbreads:

The cheesesteak flatbread was the best menu item we had, by far. The toppings were well seasoned and plentiful.

The pepperoni flatbread had way too many tomatoes which overpowered the rest of the flatbread.

The salads were extremely bland… lacked any creativity, and the tenderloin (steak) that came with the salad didn’t even have a pinch of salt.. dry as well…

The gnocchi dish was clearly a seasonal dish since it had butternut squash, but it was way too much for an entree sized portion… perhaps it would have been better as a side, which we don’t think was offered…

Finally, the salmon dish came raw and needed to be sent back.. that meant that when it was recooked and brought back to us, we were completely done eating, so one person was left eating alone.

Overall, the menu selection was small and didn’t have that wide of a variety.. The atmosphere was nice and cozy, and it wasn’t too busy, however, I thought the kitchen was a bit slow.. the prices were average and the staff was nice and courteous. The menu seems to be able to keep the calorie count of each dish to be below 595 calories, which is nice however it limits the variety of customers, and it is also not advertised anywhere as a “healthy” or “light” menu until you sit down. Be advised that we did not have wine which occupies one whole side of the menu, and I am judging this experience without any alcoholic beverages. This may be enjoyable for the atmosphere or for the large selection of wine, however, I don’t plan to come back because of the very limited menu. Wish this...
