Had a very good experience. We dine at Seasons 52 at least 3 times a year. Have always enjoyed it. This last time the noise level was a tad louder than other times, but not bothersome. The food as usual was very good. However, the best part of our visit this time was our server. She was excellent! She was attentive, professional and friendly. We truly enjoyed having her serve us.
