We all ordered sandwiches and asked for additions or omissions which wasn't a problem at all. All of our choices came with generous portions and were delicious.

We both started with their Pear Paloma-tequila, pear, cardamom, lime, grapefruit soda. It was refreshing and good. It was the perfect drink to try.

Spicy Tuna Roll- tuna, spicy mayo, masago, scallion, sambal, eel sauce, sesame seeds add avocado + $1, add pickled mango + $1 I chose the mango for a twist. It was fresh and delicious.

There was a couple sharing our high top and they ordered several orders of these and they told us it's a must try. I would've ordered more food, but we were going to another place and I didn't want to fill up. The staff is very nice here all very friendly and welcoming. There's no children's menu. This place is a bit small so I don't recommend it for young children and it would be difficult for handicapped unless you're able to get a table outside. We will definitely be back.

My preference is the brighter area and we were fortunate to be seated on that side. Prior to our meal, we were served fresh baked popovers. They were delicious. My husband ordered the steak (prices not for the faint of heart) and I went with the lunch special (half sandwich, soup and salad). He was in heaven with his steak and enjoyed every last bite. My soup and salad was really good. The half sandwich is on the very small side. We also went with a side of mac and cheese. And to top if off we had the build your own sundae for desert.

The French onion soup is just as good and one of the best in the area. It's so good we had it when it was over 95° degrees outside and still worth it. They've changed the chicken meatballs in the last 2 years since I've been there - much less slaw (which was a unique highlight). These were dry and tasted overcooked and tough. My chicken Milanese was also overcooked and tough. The chicken was right at that cusp of brown to burnt with some pieces being burnt and difficult to chew. My husband's fried chicken from his sandwich (much much thicker piece of chicken) was fine so it makes me wonder if it was cooked at the same time. The prices are still reasonable for a nicer pub / gastropub which is appreciated.

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm, welcoming ambiance that made the celebration feel extra special. One of my favorite things about Seasons 52 is that much of the menu features delicious meals under 600 calories, making it easy to enjoy a flavorful meal without feeling overly full. Everything we ordered was fresh, well-prepared, and satisfying. My absolute favorite was the Summer Refresher mocktail - a zero-proof drink that was incredibly refreshing, with fresh mint and juicy watermelon chunks. It was the perfect sip for a summer evening. To top it all off, the Mini Indulgence desserts were the perfect portion-controlled treats. Served in adorable parfait glasses, they let everyone enjoy a little something sweet without overdoing it. With options like Cookies & Cream and Key Lime Pie (plus several others to choose from), there was something for everyone. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a restaurant with a cozy atmosphere, lighter menu options, and delicious food and drinks, Seasons 52 is definitely worth a visit!

Friends picked us up at the Princeton Junction train station and drove into Princeton. We had lunch at Witherspoon, one of their favorites, before heading to the Princeton University Art Museum. My friend and I shared the grilled shrimp salad, and they kindly split it in the kitchen for us. Hardly any black beans, at least in mine, but two large shrimp (one of my favorite oxymorons!) and lots of shredded romaine, topped with about half a sliced avocado. Came with a creamy dressing on the side, no great shakes to me but my friend loved it. My husband had a whole grilled shrimp salad to himself, ignored the dressing, and really liked the salad. Our other friend had 2 appetizers as his meal - lobster bisque and a poke cup that was on the menu as a tuna martini, or something like that. Cute title. Two of us had unsweetened iced tea, one had a cup of hot water. My iced tea was good, our friend got a refill of his. I'm not sure if he was charged for it but I don't think so.
