Customer Review Summary
Seasons Restaurant receives high praise for its outstanding dining experience and fantastic brunch offerings. Special menu items like the Shredded Chicken Jalapeno Benedict and Açai bowl are highlighted as fresh and delicious. The restaurant is appreciated for its tranquil, luxurious atmosphere without pretentiousness, featuring nice patio seating and friendly, attentive staff. Customers note great value with reasonable prices and a good selection of gluten-free and vegetarian options. The complimentary mini zucchini bread and strawberry-infused water were nice touches mentioned by reviewers. However, some past experiences with service were mixed, particularly regarding a server's absence and a tipping misunderstanding in a large party. Despite this, many consider Seasons one of their favorite restaurants for its farm-to-table style and exceptional food made from quality ingredients. While the ambiance is generally praised, a few found it a bit loud for their liking. Overall, it’s recommended for special occasions or casual dining, with plans to return often.

Outstanding everything! Fantastic dining experience! Highly recommended! We had Brunch. Even the prices are great....really! All things considered, not a problem with the prices at all! Special was Shredded Chicken jalapeno Benedict, and the Açai bowl was so Fresh and delicious! Update: 1/27/24 It's official, we're regulars! Consistently the Best Brunch in a long, long time!

A lovely place for breakfast! Went in on a Sunday morning and the place was very quiet and relatively empty. Camille was a wonderful server. Very friendly and kind and her positivity started out my day on the right foot. And everyone else I saw working all seemed very upbeat and enthusiastic too. Prices are great, all things considered. The Aviara Sunrise is a deal. 2 eggs, 3 bacon, and potatoes for 19 bucks. Steal. Plus toast on the side is optional. Great tea and coffee selection! The complimentary mini zucchini bread was a nice touch, as was the strawberry infused water. The staff was very allergy-conscious, which was appreciated greatly. A good number of gluten-free and vegetarian options. The restaurant is tranquil and has a luxurious feel without being pretentious. There is patio seating overlooking the pool area too. Highly recommend. Great value and awesome staff. Easy free parking too!

It was just me and my 8 month baby and the staff here took such great care of us. They got the food out in perfect timing and made sure my baby had a few things to nibble on. BTW... THE BESSSTTTT CREME BRULEE EVER!!!

UPDATE: 100% my fault. I my portion of this mistake. Here we go…. I decided to pay for our party of 6. The menu does state that gratuity (20%?) is included on parties of 6 or more. Fair enough. I forgot. The bill WITH gratuity came to around $575. I failed to recall in the moment that the tip was included and tip a very generous $200 on top of that! My bad My server who will remain nameless herein disappeared. We sat for quite a bit longer chatting at the table. But he was oddly absent. Had he returned to point out the obvious error he would have been thanked and given a $50 additional tip for his honesty. I believe this should have been see as an error by our server. He should have just pointed it out. What do you think? They had my contact information to reach me afterwards even if that was desired by them. This happened months ago. We and our family and friend have not returned on a single occasion as what happened left a bad taste in everyone’s mouth. Not good for the bottom line IMHO. Original review: Judge for yourself. What do you think of that Steak portion? $40. I’m lucky to have eaten out a lot all around the world. That was just a silly excuse for a fair portion. We will spend our money elsewhere for a while.

July 2024 update, the summer menu is out and this is still a fantastic place to eat and is super dog friendly!! Without a doubt, one of our favorite restaurants in North County. The food is excellent, the service is amazing, and the ambience is delightful. It doesn’t matter if it’s a special occasion or just a quick dinner at the bar they never disappoint.

Absolutely delightful farm-to-table style restaurant, perfect for an upscale family meal or date. They perfectly balance modern and heartiness, and the restaurant does not give you a gaudy or ostentatious pressure. But certainly, the food and the love and care you receive is well worth of 5-stars. Go to Seasons because you want exceptional food, prepared with fabulous and fresh ingredients, a dash of creativity, served in an atmosphere with healthy energy. Yes, you don't want to show up in shorts, but also, no need for a tuxedo. When you use great ingredients, you don't need garnish or numbing of the palate. The pasta as well as the potato soup literally demonstrated that hearty ingredients put together with care can do magic. The pork belly and sea bass were a bit more progressive, but stayed well within the harmony of ingredients-first philosophy. The wedge salad was out of this world. And the green apple ice-cream simply has no equal. We had a wonderful time at Seasons and was well worth every penny. Will return!

Great dining experience, amazing food, good portions and great service. We celebrated our wedding anniversary and were treated above & beyond. I did find it a bit loud for my liking but that would be my only negative comment.

Great ambiance! The combination of flavors on some of the dishes was amazing. Our server didn't feel comfortable recommending dishes because people like different things which I understand but I'd rather someone ask about my preferences and make an attempt to describe the dish and how it may or may not be of my liking. Once the food came out the server did explain the dishes throughly. I think dishes should be explained before hand as well.
