After closing for a bit during pandemic and then reopening recently, it is easy to seethat Seasons has leveled up into a modern and fully featured restaurant. With a good range of dishes but an unpretentious menusize, you’ll get enough to fit any palate or diner’s needs, but not a Cheesecake Factory’s worth of options. I don’tknow why you’re dining at a higher end sustainable restaurant if that’s what you want. Seasonal fare changes often, thingsrun out, dishes cycle on and off menu again that’s the whole point. So when we went and were told something we ordered wasout of stock and we could get a more expensive thing for the same price, that was a lovely surprise. The servers were attentivebut didn’t hover and were really very efficient and friendly. Honestly much more personable and entertaining than you’dnormally see in a bigger place or closer in toward the bay Sacramento. The lamb, steak, and pork are all favorites forentrees and the parsnip soup was delectable, earthy without being bitter… all around a very nice way to start an evening. Ithought plating for dessert was a bit weak but it was very strong for the other courses, so that’s a bit odd. Flavors all hitvery good notes and there wasn’t really a weak item on our list to complain about. Would certainly return. High marks forservice flexibility and friendliness, clean modern decor, COVID safe outdoors with heat lamps for the cold (yay! , and excellentfood. You’ll spend $50 70 a person to get drinks apps entrees, or more plus tips and all that jazz, but I think thewhat’s at stake in exchange is generally a good value. 4.8 5. — edit: added veteran’s day barbecue extravaganza items tothe review photos. Service and meal quality remain high. And now we’ve tasted lots more of this expanded special menu.

The price is expensive, and they over charge you a little bit because “the hotel has to went through it.” The menu was full of vegetarian food, also not veryfriendly to meat lovers like me.

The portions are reasonable. Service was great when we visited. They have a patio area with heaters or sprinklers forthe “changing” Davis weather (you know what I mean). Price is a bit high though, which is not uncommon these days, but stilla shock as the dining experience is not that different than in any other good and reasonable above average restaurant. Worthvisiting when I’m Davis, though. Also, perhaps one of only a handful of good restaurants in Davis at the moment.

Went for a CE dinner this evening. Our server went above and beyond when informed I had celiac disease. Cannot thank him enough! Delicious food to boot!!! read more Went for a CE dinner this evening.

Seasons is touted as one of the best restaurants in town, and maybe that's true, but I was disappointed with my meal. You're better off at Osteria Fasulo or even Bones Craft Kitchen.
