Currently Seasons 52 is spotlighting a harvest wine only available for a limited time. It was a little sweet and leaned towards the dessert wine taste but definitely good. A seasonal specialty cocktail the pumpkin pisco sour was delicious and served straight up.
During my visit I learned about the daily happy hour offered and I will be bringing in many customers just to try it as an alternative to Flemings right down the street. Duck Wing Lollipops are a must try and shishito peppers are hard to find in the city and very popular. Arrive at the right time and both are yours for $5! Happy hour is offered from 4:00 to 6:30 Monday through Friday.
There are five flatbreads currently running and make a great way to start off a meal. The lobster and mozzarella flatbread is an aiddtion to that and was excellent.
As another special I had the Chilean sea bass and it was incredible. That should definitely be moved onto the permanent menu. It was Asian glazed with black rice and shiitake mushrooms.
If you are a meat eater the grilled filet mignon and New York strip are don't miss features everyday.
If you go the vegetarian route then the porcini mushroom bisque soup should be a part of your meal.
Finally for dessert Seasons 52 is known for the mini desserts served in shot glasses basically. They are just the right amount of sweet tastes after a big meal. My favorite and my server's was the carrot cake with cinnamon honey. You don't have to be Bugs Bunny to enjoy it. I also like chocolate mized with peanut butter that one is a good one to try also.
Overall, the experience was not only elegant but an experience that had me and my friend raving about the place. This season head over to see for yourself
