Seasons 52

TLDR: Highly recommend. Savory dishes rely on masterfully cooked vegetables for flavor, rather than being doused in butter or cheese, which I always appreciate. 3-course meal for one was less than $40, excluding gratuity, despite the decor and atmosphere feeling a good deal more high-end than similarly priced restaurants. Service was quick, and the staff were all very kind. Reservations recommended at peak times. FULL REVIEW: I dined here alone at lunch on a busy Saturday at peak time. For my appetizer, I ordered avocado toast. There were small tomatoes on the dish, which were wonderfully tart and added lots of brightness and zing to the dish. The dish had a generous amount of avocado. The sourdough was perfectly toasted; crunchy but not so much that it was hard to chew. The balsamic added a deeper tang and sharpness to the dish than the tomatoes, which helped further offset the creamy, rich, near-sweetness of the avocados. I then ordered a seasonal gnocchi dish, which included mushrooms, roasted tomatoes, and this lovely creamy sauce which the menu said used various cheeses. To me, it tasted like cream of mushroom; I'm quite certain there was mushroom used in the sauce, which gave a great umami flavor. The dish was rich, hearty, and filling, without feeling like it was weighing me down with tons of oil or butter. I do think some sour cream on the side to provide some contrast would have been nice. To order desserts, the staff bring out a display with replicas of all of their desserts, so you can see what they look like. This is so creative to me. I'm always a fan of photos on the menu or other ways to see what you'll be ordering. I ordered the cookies 'n' cream dessert, which was delicious. Symone D., my waitress, was amazing - really friendly and sweet, and never seemed bothered by me asking for more water or a spoon or anything. She was always so fast to do everything, despite how busy the restaurant was. I was deeply impressed and she really makes you feel like a valued customer. I think it's so nice that she told me not to rush and to take my time, even though they were clearly slammed. (On that note - I'd highly recommend making reservations if you're planning to dine at a peak time. I snagged the very last open table when I walked in.) It was so convenient to pay by phone with a QR code instead of someone having to take my card and me needing to sign a receipt and whatnot. Feels like we're finally living in the 21st century. The prices are very reasonable. I had an amazing, tasty, filling 3-course meal for less than $40 excluding gratuity. Many of the other comparably nice restaurants in the area provide less tasty food or smaller portions for higher prices. This one is cheaper and still nice enough to bring the in-laws to. My only complaint is how dark the lighting was. I went on a sunny afternoon for lunch, and personally, I always prefer natural sunlight when it's there, rather than dark, moody lighting. Obviously, it's nothing major to gripe about, and for an evening dinner, it's not an issue. Other than that, I am so pleased with how the meal went.

Walked in without a dinner reservation, but was still seated without a wait. I had a very kind and attentive waitress, Katie. Food was good and came out quickly. I love the mini desserts! I would recommend dining here.

Absolutely lovely experience. I was pleasantly surprised by all the gluten free options they had. Even the key like pie desert was so good. I haven't had key like pie in years because of my dietary restrictions. ❤️

Loved the mushroom flat bread appetizer. Also streak tacos were decent, although they were a bit liquidy than what i would have liked. The burger was nice, and focacia bread appread to be freshly baked. It has pesto spread, but one without nuts. Both main courses came with a side of salad, which i wasnt expecting from a lunch special menu. Nice decor and place to hang out. Located in a smaller mall, with not too crazy traffic.

A Sunday Lunch with Bright Spots and Room to Grow 🌿 We gathered at Seasons 52 on Sunday, ready for a family feast, and were welcomed with genuinely warm smiles and attentive service that set a gracious tone from the start. Our server made sure drinks stayed full, plates arrived promptly, and everyone felt cared for — the kind of hospitality that lingers. My salmon was nicely cooked, though the string beans were a bit on the tough side. My aunt’s sesame salmon salad was the clear winner at our table, with fresh, lively flavors she couldn’t stop complimenting. My wife’s rotisserie chicken was tender, but the rice pilaf alongside it could have used more seasoning to shine. The kids enjoyed their pasta with grilled chicken — a cozy, simple dish — but wished for a cheesier finish. The dining room had a relaxed, inviting energy, making it easy to linger over conversation. While a couple of sides fell short of our hopes, the friendly, attentive service ensured we still left with smiles and a sense of having been looked after. With a few tweaks in the kitchen, this could be a meal as memorable as the hospitality. Finally, the desserts were excellent and very succulent.

Season 52 never disappoints, but this visit truly stood out! We came for Happy Hour and everything was absolutely amazing. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented — every bite was delicious. The service made the experience even better. Karina was out of this world! Attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming — she went above and beyond to make sure we had a perfect evening. If you’re looking for great food, a relaxing Happy Hour atmosphere, and exceptional service, Season 52 is the place to go. We’ll definitely be back!

This was my first time with this cut of lamb. It was medium well and just right. The Lamb was tender and flavorful. The broccoli could've have been cooked a little more but it was still good and loved the fact they had broccolini over regular broccoli. Thanksgiving day crowded but the server was on point. WOOD-GRILLED KONA CRUSTED LAMB LOIN

This place is truly beautifully designed, and the lighting enhances the atmosphere. The staff were exceptional - friendly and very helpful when taking orders and providing valuable food suggestions. As it was my first visit, I know I'll be back soon.❤️

Food was amazing! We started out with appetizers, a Caesar salad, and then had the filet mignon. The two servers were awesome, managing a large party with efficiency. The restaurant is upscale, but yet has a very relaxed feel to it. Highly recommended!

This location served for my family "go to" spot. I fell like this location slowly deteriorating with overall service and specifically "food quality". We ordered Dry-aged honey pork and a salad either tuna(forgot the name) and it was just terrible. The plating was all over the place. Dishes were dirty with water stain and you can smell the stain before your food. My order, the honey pork was disgustingly presented. There was no flavor at all. It just sweat. I cant taste any part of the meat cause the sweetness conquers the whole dish. The marinade vegies has mixed raisins(I assume??) cause it was all burnt and just caramelized with sweetness. A half way thru my dish my mouth was all numbed from sweetness. Everytime I experienced this type of restaurant, I honestly think that if owner even cares? I bet the owner cant even remember when was the last time he tasted any of their dishes. Front receptionist were very unpleasant as we arrived then as they seated us right behind the reception desk we had to hear their talking the whole time we were staying. They had a dull face with no emotion as they were "greeting" us then once the owner or manager whoever that guy was, those ladies start giggling and pleasant all of sudden. The waiter didnt even bother ask us about "allergy" with food but want to get us out so he can go back to his buddy and chat. As we finished our eating, i wanted to find our waiter but not seen, so i was trying to make eye contact with receptionist who was free hut nothing to do, were not even bother to come and ask what she can do or if there is anything i need but ended up waiting until waiter decided to show up. He then asked if we want to take anything home and said he will be back with check and container. He came back with check and desert tray. Dude, you didnt even ask if we want desert. I hope the owner read this and hopefully he cares enough about his business and make the corrections. Until then i wouldn't recommend this location, try other locations people.

Seasons 52 is an excellent effort at bringing together a versatile, and functional menu, which focuses on healthy options, while exploring unique taste profiles. Tuna tartar was excellent with just a hint of wasabi, Sea Bass was delightful and not overdone, gnocchi was flavorful, filling, done right. Wine list was on point, expertly curated with versatile options for different tastes and budget. Beer selection was unfortunately lacking. It's 2025, lets get some crafts in here.. laguinitas and stone don't exactly represent the entire world of IPA. This seems like an easy fix, if only someone would consider it. Ambiance is stellar.

salty, over priced, lamb and steak were tough. very nice waiters and nice atmosphere.

Went here for holiday lunch, it was ok. The selection was ok. I opted for the crab cakes, a bit small for the price but that's the way things are now. Best attraction was the desserts,I'd like to try them all...

Phenomenal food. I am a very picky eater and everything I get here is good- consistently! Their scallops and risotto is yummy. Lately, I've been on a rainbow trout kick and theirs is SO delicious. No fishy smell or taste at all. Cooked to perfection every time. I got it for takeout every day the last three days and it was so tasty and traveled home well. It comes with two pieces of rainbow trout (likely from filleting it is each side of the fish) seasoned nicely but not overwhelming and with a side of a mustard sauce that you only need a little bit of, yummy mashed potatoes without a bunch of additives and has the skin in it, and asparagus. They have hit the nail on the head every single time. Next time I will remember to take photos, but it's been so good I just dive right in. I will continue coming back. I look forward to trying the halibut next. Yum!

We had a wonderful delicious romantic dinner at Seasons 52 in Princeton on New Year's Eve! Sarah provided GREAT service and was friendly and kind! I would definitely recommend this place!!!

The food was great but a cucumber basil cocktail was in order. We took our daughter for dinner at one of her favorite places before sending her off on Amtrak back to school, I was chocking back tears. The service and ambulance is always a delight. The only thing that could be better is if they used less salt on the fish. The mushroom soup is fab and so are the salads, I recommend getting one with the sesame salad dressing for an appetizer. The family loves the rainbow trout, artichoke, and salmon.

Came here after work for a drink and apps. I enjoyed the apps and will come back for a proper dinner. Service is great too!

As usual, Seasons 52 meets all your expectations, Manager, Chad Vetter who knows how to run a restaurant along with his head chef Joe.. and waiters like Manny you can't miss.. we go there a lot. It's a great place tonight. I had the Kono Encrusted lamb always over the top and my wife had scallops and risotto. Excellent appetizer, stuffed mushrooms always the best. From the front door to the table and back again, always the best .

Nice place, good food, fairly good service. I just wish they had a larger menu with some more traditional American dishes on it. I prefer salads made with good old iceberg lettuce, not arugula or romaine. The deserts are limited to little cups filled with deserts, which are way too small and appear to be pre-made stuff, like airplane food. They did not even have ice cream as a dessert option. The very poor desserts do not match with the good food on the main menu. It seems to me that this place could be the talk of the town if the desserts were high end. I ordered mashed potatoes with my dish and asked for butter. The butter did not come with the dish and I had to ask again. No big deal, but I like to have my butter melt on the potatoes as I start eating the food. The butter came soft, which I like, I do not like hard butter. No bread offered with the meal.

The grilled Idaho rainbow trout was brought fast and it was excellent! Edwin is an awesome waiter who goes above and beyond for people to make sure they are satisfied. Same fancy ambience!

Seasons 52 has THE BEST FILET I've ever had and I've had a lot of filets at steakhouses. It was so tender and flavorful. I savored every bite! The asparagus and mashed potatoes with mushrooms made it even better if that's even possible. Oh, and I added grilled scallops, again so tender, to my meal making it surf and turf that I challenge anyone to match it! The steakhouse feel is all around from the dark mahogany wood to the genuine leather seating and dimmed lighting. To top it off, the service was impeccable! Seasons 52 IS my new FAVORITE Steakhouse!

Visited this location again Sunday at 5 pm Private room for a party of 9 Great service Tried Phillycheese steak with potatoes skillet Highly recommend

Seasons 52 is a great place to eat! It's a casual restaurant but the ambience and vibe is nice enough for a celebratory meal. The menu changes with the seasons with a few staples that are always there. I usually go to the Seasons 52 in Edison but we were in Princeton and gave this place a try. The decor, ambience, food are all consistent. We ordered the Brussel sprouts but we didn't like it. Our waitress quickly offered a replacement of a different side, which was very nice. I ordered my usual favorite- the pork chops. The flavors are good and works well with the accompaniments that it comes with. The pesto chicken flatbread is another favorite tbat we always get. Great food, good vibes, nice atmosphere and great service!

Came in here last night for dinner. The interior is very modern looking. The restaurant was crowded and our server was very nice/efficient. Our food came out very quickly and was delicious. Overall a very nice dining experience.

In my opinion, Seasons 52 continues to be a nice restaurant for dinner or lunch. From the ambiance inside, to the service and food, I have always been pleased. The restaurant is great for a date night or an evening out with friends. It's a chain restaurants, but it doesn't always feel like one. Our waitress was wonderful and juggled several large groups at the same time. Our food came out relatively fast, once our orders were taken. The half chicken here is amazing. It's just delicious. My friend ordered the salmon and also enjoyed it. Their Trout was once again a let-down. I had order it on a previous visit and my friend got it this time. It was dry and overcooked.

We ordered Ahi Tuna Tartare and Lump Crab And Shrimp-Stuffed Mushrooms as appetizers. We liked the Tartare better. For the main course we ordered Wood-Grilled Kona-Crusted Lamb Loin and Filet Mignon And Maine Lobster Tail. Both were too good and the portion size was good enough for a person. The service was excellent. The ambience is also good. Overall great experience.

We've been to other Seasons 52 restaurants in California, but this was the first one we've tried in New Jersey. It's conveniently located on the US1 southbound lanes, north of Quaker Bridge Mall. I rather like the "old club" feel of the restaurant and bar. For lunch, we ordered from the Lunch Menu: Lump Crab Cake Sandwich (3/5) -- Nondescript crab cake of mostly bread(crumbs) on a toasted brioche bun. $18 Maui Tuna Crunch (4/5) -- Nice entrée salad. $22 I also enjoyed a New Old Fashioned (5/5 $15) Service was very good. Being in a mini-mall, there's plenty of parking.

The lobster bisque was the worst I'd ever had--bland rather than rich and savory--but the ahi tuna salad was tasty.

Anniversary and graduation dinner. We were slow to plan, and couldn't eat in town, so chose here. It was a great choice! Flatbread app was lovely and right size light bite for five of us. Variety of entrees; we had scallops, chicken, lamb loin, salmon, and tuna, and everyone was happy. Desserts are small and terrific; variety of chocolate (for me ... else why bother) and others in small, double shot glass sizes. Wine list was surprisingly good for a chain. Service outstanding and attentive. Room buzzy but not overwhelming. Five of us in a half circle booth could converse just fine. Best of all, in sharp contrast to downtown Princeton, lots of parking!!! I'm an alum and have been coming to Princeton for more than 40 years. This requires a drive, but is such a great alternative to the crowding and hassle (and repetition) of town spots.

I had lunch here with my sister the Wednesday after the Inauguration 2025 and Martin Luther King. Jr. Day. I was amazed at how crowded it was with practically every table occupied. Despite that, the service was prompt and pleasant and the food came out hot. I have also often dined at Seasons 52 in Bridgewater, and this one in Princeton upholds the same high standards and also has the sleek, sophisticated decor. My sister and I really enjoyed our meal. We had the lobster bisque, the balsamic glazed brussel sprouts, scallops with mascarpone risotto, the Alaska butterfish with wilted spinach and ponzu reduction, the cheesecake and key lime mini indulgences and cappuccinos. All wonderful and creative. To drink, she had a merlot red wine, and I had a delicious Old Fashioned. That was our one meal of the day, and an excellent one it was! I would go back.

Just stopping by for a little birthday drink and and the caramelized brussel sprouts. And then going next door for dinner! Just wanted to post the happy hour menu!

The crab cakes were delicious, but the wine list didn't impress me, and the main dish was a bit bland. However, the bartenders were fantastic, and the overall vibe of the place was positive. It's probably the most upscale spot in that mall.

One of the best restaurant! I love it's flat breads, tuna salad! Delicious! Beautiful and comfortable atmosphere! Reasonable price! Great service! Lots of parking space! What else can you ask for? Highly recommend Seasons 52 Princeton!

I first went to a seasons 52 actually for a dinner party after a really small wedding, and it was lovely! After that experience, when I visited NJ with my bf recently and spotted this seasons 52, I insisted we go for dinner. We didn't have a reservation and didn't want to wait for a table so we sat at the bar and it was great! The drinks were a tad sweet for me but still delicious. We got the tuna tartare as an app. I didn't love the avocado mousse thing and would've preferred just chunks of avocado but my bf loved the dish and I still thought it was really tasty. I got the scallops dish which was good and my bf got the lamb dish that was really good. The ambiance is nice and a tiny bit fancy but still a little casual, which was fantastic. We'll definitely be back!

Family Easter Lunch Restaurant was flexible in changing our reservation given we had a toddler finishing her nap We were 7 strong and everyone was very happy with service and food Fun deserts

Celebrated anniversary party three weeks ago and everything was wonderful! The wait staff went above and beyond to accommodate our 20 guests with food questions, service, and the food was prepared to perfection! Everyone agreed their meal and beverages were delicious and would recommend the restaurant highly. People ordered various appetizers. entrees, and drinks and EVERYONE was thrilled with all aspects of our dining experience! The ambiance was elegant, quiet and relaxing! The restaurant was patient and encouraged us to remain as we desired! We have been to the Bridgewater location many times and have always found that it exceeded our expectations in all aspects of restaurant service. Thank you

What a great supper I just had! our server, was excellent. I intend to ask for him in the future. My delectable lunch included lobster flatbread,spinach/pear salad, filet mignon and a delicious dessert (exactly the right size after that). I'm really glad this restaurant has debuted in Princeton. I hope to go there frequently and try the entire menu.

Sat at the bar and it had a great time, the ambiance was pleasant, low lighting, and great food/service. Will definitely dine again.

CONSISTENCY!!!!! ALWAYS TERRIFIC! Food is high quality, prepared to taste, and portioned well! Service is professional, friendly and reliable. The decor is comfortable and homey, yet you feel like you're somewhere special! A special shout out to Lexi, a bartender. Hardworking, talented, welcoming and engaging! THANK YOU!

Trash food is extremely unflavored and subpar. The service and the ambience is good. This place is for white people

I stopped by Seasons 52 for their 3-6 happy hour. They offer discounts on certain wines and $12 for a flatbread and a glass of wine. I docked a star because on the happy hour menu they also listed other appetizers, but they were the same price as the regular menu (???). I went for the Philly cheesesteak flatbread and a glass of Malbec. The flatbread was huge and teeming with beef and grilled onions. The flavor and freshness was solid and I was happy with my meal. Service at the pleasant bar was fast and friendly.

After visiting Seasons 52 in Edison and Bridgewater, I decided to try out the Princeton location with a friend. We stopped by at around 7 pm on Tuesday, and were surprised to find that the restaurant was pretty busy with people coming from work. Fortunately, they were still able to seat us immediately as there were several open tables. We ordered the very reasonably priced roasted tomato flatbread and pesto chicken and fresh mozzarella flatbread. Don't let the low price and calorie count of the flatbread fool you; one flatbread is definitely filling enough for a meal. However, I also ordered the crab polenta, which was surprisingly enjoyable. The tomato flatbread had an unwelcome piece of pepperoni, which would not be appreciated by vegetarians, but the waitress kindly offered to bring out a new flatbread if we wanted. I also found a chicken bone within my pizza, but other than that, it was pretty good! For dessert, we were presented with a tower of options in cute glasses. We ultimately settled on the Belgian chocolate s'mores mini and the cookies n creme mini. The marshmallow was actually a quarter marshmallow and my Oreo seemed a bit soggy. Although the display was very impressive, it would probably be easier to review all the options on a menu along with the prices.

By far, one of my favorite places for dinner. I've now been here several times and each time the food and service has been excellent. I love how fresh all of the food is. You can really taste how everything is made in house with fresh ingredients. This restaurant is also very reasonably priced. Standout dishes: roasted mushroom flatbread, ahi tuna tartare, filet mignon, sea bass, and Kona crusted lamb loin. All of the flat breads are delicious - thin crust, nice and crispy, good amount of toppings, and excellent flavors. The mushroom flatbread with goat cheese, roasted mushrooms, green onion and truffle oil is my favorite, with the pesto chicken & mozzarella flatbread as a close second. The ahi tuna tartare is great - large amount of both tuna and avocado. Highly recommend this restaurant for private events. I had my wedding rehearsal dinner here for 40 people in the private room. Absolutely amazing from start to finish. Kristin worked with me to adjust the menu to what we wanted, had great wine recommendations, and helped me stay within budget. We received so many compliments from our guests about the food and the experience.

Top notch chain that is always consistent and good. The filet was cooked to perfection and better than some of the more expensive steak houses.

Great place seasonal menu very good service! The restaurant itself is beautifully appointed. The food is very good.. kind of a fusion/seasonal menu

Service was great. Very friendly and attentive. Food size was a bit more than expected considering for lunch portions. But food lacked flavor. The ingredients on the menu looked amazing but almost everything lacked the expected flavors.

I love seasons 52. Even though it's a chain restaurant, it's one of the better ones. The setting is very romantic. We made reservations for Valentine's Day weeks ago, which was a great idea because it was PACKED. Their food is great. Always cooked to perfection. I would come here on the regular if I could.

food. ambiance. outside seating was so comfortable. there shrimp and filet were excellent.

we had an amazing experience here for our anniversary dinner! the food was fantastic, the restaurant was super nice & well decorated, and the service was good. the best part (in our opinion) was the little dessert cups at the end! we would come back here again in the future for sure!

Surprising EXCELLENT!! I was not expecting much maybe because it's a chain but I was blown away! From the outstanding, friendly, efficient service to the scrumptious food where everything was delicious -- a rarity in my experience, to the comfortable seats and atmosphere. I will definitely return many times and from the number of full tables on a early Tuesday evening it appears there are many others who like the place too!

Indignant management. Used to be a favorite place of mine, but have decided to patronize other places that are more appreciative of my business.

After a long gap of not dining out given Covid situation, this was our first venture and we made a reservation for outdoor seating. We got there and were told that they didn't have a table outside. We were offered a table inside and after some deliberation we decided to take it. The candle on our table was not lit ... We ordered wine & a cucumber melon drink. Our wine didn't make it even when the appetizers were served , and we had to remind our waiter . Our waiter probably missed placing an order for the cucumber melon drink as it never made it to our table ! We asked for Tabasco and it didn't see the light of the day till we left ! We asked for water and kept waiting in suspense ! Overall Service really bad! Now to the food The three stars is purely for the good food and dessert Grilled Artichokes with preserved lemon hummus was a unique treat that I enjoyed the most. Crisp yet chewy artichoke with a creamy tart hummus was an offbeat combination that's a must try . All 4 flatbread choices were simply divine. It's a must have appetizer ! Pesto chicken , Lobster mozzarella, Buffalo cauliflower & Roasted tomato . Lump crab cake with aioli was delicately crusted $ K spiced , loaded with carb meat and perfectly cooked . Seared scallops appetizer & entree with asparagus was spot on with a beautiful sear outside and soft inside . I would also highly recommend their Grilled Rainbow trout with potatoes. But for the fact that Seasons 52 is is a chain , their menu is quite impressive and so is the food.that I have tried at multiple locations . Despite our experience of poor service , I still think this place is a keeper for its reliable $ consistent food!

We had a very good first meal at Seasons 52! Nothing super remarkable to add. The food was good, the waitress was nice, and the ambience was pretty! I love the dessert shooters! Such an awesome idea when you're too full and you don't really want a whole cheesecake.

First time here. Good was excellent. All four of us enjoyed what we ordered. The waiter was very attentive. The atmosphere was very cool. We will be back.

Best restaurant In Princeton area! Always great fresh healthy dishes with Great ambience and excellent service. Chad (GM) does phenomenal job and it shows!

Had an outstanding lunch here. Started with a very tasty lobster bisque and then with a truly outstanding lamb loin entrée. Our server was extremely helpful and accommodating and made some great suggestions. Plenty of free parking

Awesome friendly service by Ashnii. All the food was on par and a great value. Flatbreads around $9-12, that's just a good deal. Wine flights money, Gnocchi added scallops cooked well, a bit on sweet side with lots of butternut squash but all good. Too much food for too good of a price. Thank you Landry's for making food affordable with the best atmosphere and seating that you wouldn't expect at this menu price.
