    Ambience, service, staff are excellent. Always friendly and welcoming. The food always surpasses our expectations and surprisingly the prices are even below the competition. The only downside is it's at the mall.

    White wines flight
    Caroline Whitney M.

    We went here last night right before an AMC movie. Everything was great! Service was spot on. I ordered the classic whites flight and it was totaling a 9oz pour. I loved the alborino! For entree we tried the rotisserie chicken and artichoke soup and I order the wood fired trout and my boyfriend ordered the crab cake and Mac and cheese. Everything came out super quick! Recommend!

    This was my first time to Seasons 52 and I'll definitely be back! My friends and I met up for our quarterly catchup. When the server arrived at our table, she explained the 52 in Seasons 52. Okay, I get it now. Let me start off by saying, all of our drinks were superb! I'm saying, above par. But especially the Apple Bourbon Infusion. OMG!!! If I hadn't alreay been sipping vodka I would have ordered that as my second drink. The espresso martini was very tasty I might add. AND it was effective. Okay, back to the food. Chilean sea bass is my favorite and anytime I eat at a restaurant that severs it, I order. It didn't not disappoint. It was perfect and served over rice. What else can I say. One of my friends ordered the steak (after they advised they were out of the pork chops. It came with broccoli and mushrooms. She enjoyed it. The one item we didn't really care for (and actually sent back) were the shrimp 'poppers' for lack of a better word. They were shrimp topped mushrooms. Something just tasted off. Nicole, my other friend, got some soup and salad. Good for the cold day that it was. We enjoyed the meal, our server, the restaurant, and the vibe. I'll definitely be back!!

    Hawaiian Pineapple Cosmopolitan

    Met a friend here for dinner recently. It's large inside with plenty of seating at the bar and dining room. We had a great server who was very friendly. To start, we shared the Slow-Roasted Meatballs which came in a bowl of 3 large pieces. For drinks, I got a couple rounds of their Hawaiian Pineapple Cosmopolitan. I enjoyed that they brought the shaker to the table and poured it in the cocktail glass. For my main entree, I got the Wild Alaska "Butterfish" and my friend got their Wood-Grilled Kona Crusted Lamb Loin which he enjoyed. I liked my fish which was cooked and seasoned well. We ended up getting mini desserts. I chose the Key Lime Pie which was good and a perfect size. Overall, a great first experience here.

    I went with a very large party. They put us in a semi private room. The service was great. The server had a hard time taking our order because we were all over the place and not making it easy. He got all the orders right and made it comfortable. He was even swarmed by children for the dessert display and he took the orders with a smile. The food was also great! Any white fish you get there will be cooked to perfection. My kids loved the flat bread! My only complaint, which is really my husbands complaint, he often leave hungry. With everything on the menu being under 595 calories, he feels the heartier things that he would order are just small portioned. I agree with that when it comes to the desserts. I prefer the large slices of cake to the shot glass desserts that they have here.

    I had such a great time dining at Seasons 52! What stood out most (besides the excellent service) was the variety and quality of the side dishes and shareables. We tried several appetizers to split, to try one of each :), and every single dish was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully plated. Highly recommend the crab shrimp mushroom appetizer!! Was so yummy and beautifully plated. The restaurant vibe is fairly dressy & upscale, with dim lighting that gives it a romantic feel. Drinks were great, and the food overall felt like somewhat of a fine dining without the super high price tag. Highly recommend if you love grazing on lots of small plates and enjoying a cozy, stylish night out with a glass of wine!! We went with a 20-month old, so our night wasn't as romantic but wonderful regardless!! Definitely kid friendly

    Service here was top tier. Came for a private birthday party and the wait staff was amazing. The food and drinks were good too. I literally cleared everything off of my plate. Will definitely come back

    Brick Oven-Roasted Chilean Sea Bass

    Went to Seasons 52 at Columbia Mall to celebrate a birthday and had a great experience. The chicken was perfectly cooked, and the fish was flaky and fresh. Our server was friendly and very accommodating, which made the celebration even better.

    Mushroom porcini soup
    Jordana W.

    Came to Seasons 52 tonight. My husband and I have been here many times to celebrate our wedding anniversary and on several other occasions. Tonight (2/13) Khalid was our server. Not so impressive. He did not come over during the meal to ask if we needed anything or asked how we liked our food. Also our dinner arrived while we were still eating our soup. Not spacing out the delivery of the food created minus points in our book. He finally offered to refill our water after we were done eating - never during the meal. Also, my husband ordered coffee with his dessert order but the coffee was not delivered until after we were done eating dessert. VERY Disappointing. The food itself was delicious as it always is, but the service had something to be desired. I hope it will be improved upon the next time we come to dine.

    Service was great. I had hummus and veggies. Also added bread. Everything was really good. Drink was great and prices were reasonable. Might come back for an encore.

    Espresso Martini
    Donyiel C.

    **Updated Review** Stopped by for happy hour and had great bar service by Lilly and Isis. We were looking to grab some bites and drinks before a movie screening at the nearby theater! This was good choice. It's been awhile since I'd been here. My last experience wasn't the best. This was much improved. The happy hour specials are great. I got the chicken pesto flatbread and a sangria. Definitely worth it for $14!

    Lump Crab Cake
    Qadira W.

    excellent experience. Had a reservation, was shown to our table immediately. We were a party of 5 and it was a Thursday evening. Everyone enjoyed their cocktail, which is a feat for this crew. I had these stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer for us. I loved the dish they were plated in. They were very good. They just needed two more granules of salt. Our waiter was Vel and he was both attentive and courteous. Everyone enjoyed their entrée and we each got an array of desserts and they were all great. All desserts are were presented and plated as small bites and they did not disappoint.

    Tuna tartar
    Nicole B.

    Came here for a family dinner of 7 members. We sat at a larger round booth table which was crazy. Like why jam your customers up like that? We asked to be move and then was seated at much better table with individual chairs at a large round table. The server was great, friendly and attentive. The drink came out quickly and all seemed to be tasty. The table fell silent when the food came. The tuna tartar was excellent on a bed of guacamole, served with crackers fresh and delicious. The Brussel sprouts and meatballs were very tasty they could have roasted my sprouts more but still tasty just not as tender. The dessert selection was fantastic as far a presentation and taste. They were small so no guilt go for. A+ I do recommend

Took a good friend of mine here to celebrate her birthday. This evening that had a really nice pre-fix menu called The Vines and Vibes dinner series in which you get 3 courses and wine pairings for $65 pp. Which was a really great deal. We also ordered a plethora of appetizers to share amongst the table. We had the hummus trio , charred octopus, summer heirloom tomatoes, zucchini fritters and the charred octopus. All of the appetizers were very good. The zucchini fritters were so good, we ordered a second order. For dinner pretty much everyone did the cast iron short rib with the puff pasty. That was basically Sunday dinner in a pan. The short rib was nice and tender and the flaky puff pasty to soak up the gravy. Very delicious. For my first course I opted for the ceasar salad, something told me to get that yellow tomato gazpacho. Two of my friends had gotten it and they said it was phenomenal. The birthday girl got the Bouillabaisse with the Chilean sea bass. She said that was absolutely delicious. The Chilean sea bass was cooked nicely and had a buttery taste. And for dessert we did the orange tres leche cake and the chocolate mousse. Both desserts were really good. The tres leche cake was really good and if you mix it with the chocolate mousse even better. This place offers so many options for dinner, from their weekly specials, where you get 50 percent off any bottle of wine on Mondays, bubbles and boards on Wednesdays, Thursdays they have a nice to go special, where you can pizza and a nice bottle of wine to go. Now who doesn't like that for a Thursday night. They also have a great happy hour as well . This place is great for a date night, girls dinner or just a nice night out to have a great dinner and listen to live music. I will definitely be returning either for dinner or brunch. Also I did want to give a tidbit about parking. It can get a lil crowded especially in the evenings and if there is an event going on at Merriweather Post, it's best to utilize their valet parking for an additional $10 fee. It definitely beats the headache if trying to find parking. SYOY

The wine, as always was delicious. My friend ordered the IBWC Fall Burger and I ordered the Grilled Bistro Steak Frites. The Steak was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. We had also ordered side Caesar salads. It was restaurant week and neither of us opted into the the 3 courses for a price option but our server did kindly inform us that she grouped it that way to help us save and include the dessert. We ended up getting the Nutella dessert (I don't recall what it was called). While the presentation wasn't great, it was very good and I would recommend it. Wish I liced closer so I could come here more often but it is one of my favorites in the area.

    A cute little wine and gift shop, hosting Friday and Saturday outdoor concerts…read more We love this little wine shop, both for it's offerings, but especially for the weekend concerts and the outdoor umbrellaed tables. We drove up on a Saturday late afternoon in Aug 2025 and found parking across Main Street. There are other free lots nearby and sometimes a free shuttle around town on Sat and Sun. While waiting for the music, we staked out a table among some that people had reserved ahead of time in front of the wine shop, with other tables just outside the lot and more across the quiet side-street. From the wine shop, we got a nice little pinot noir to take home. They offered plastic glasses and a bucket full of ice, so we could have had that during the concert. They also have beers and ciders, gourmet snacks, and many clever and original accessories and crafts. The wine shop's owner encouraged up to walk to nearby Joe's Deli, and across to the Patapsco Distillery where the band set up under a small canopy, and we also got some food and drink from them for our table. And there's a sweet little ice cream shop across Main Street too! The band played light rock and folk and people were relaxed in conversations and enjoyment of the music. The gentle breeze kept us cool under sun-shielding umbrellas. This is nicely done weekly pair of concert, and the welcoming hostess and cooperative nearby shops make this a pleasant way to visit Sykesville on a Friday or Saturday evening, continuing through Nov 8th.

    A delightful and whimsical wine shop…read more From first glance, Vine on Main looks like a fairy hut, or at the very least, a hippie's hideaway. Colorful clothing hang up in display, palm size houses tucked away behind rocks, and a cozy outdoor seating area are the first things to great you as you approach the store. Once inside, you'll find yourself in a claustrophobic den, filled with locally made goods such as clothing, foodstuffs, and art as well as wall to wall wines. Choices are plenty despite the small size of the store and at reasonable prices. For those living nearby, be sure to check out Vine on Main's wine club to get more wine at better values. The real highlight of Vine on Main is the owner, who is the sweetest woman you'll meet. She's highly knowledgeable about all the products in the shop, even the non-alcoholic ones and is more than happy to share information about them. Not only does she have excellent wine and booze recommendation, but she'll even offer some free samples if you ask her nicely. Plan on shopping around the area? She'll take your order, bag it, and leave it to the side so that you can pick it up when you're all done instead of lugging around heavy bottles. If you're in the area looking to buy some good wine or just want to spend some time with a fun and interesting woman, then check out the Vine on Main.

This winery deserves all the awards and promotion that I've seen all socials .... However, when you know a major dmv social group (dmvdoes ) is hosting an event of 40+ people why is only 1 staff member working the whole night.? Our event experience (paid ) came with a glass of wine for all our guests. The wine was just put on a table without any explanation of the wine , grapes, or legacy. I brought several things for a raffle including the mayor bottle of wine , 2 tastings, and a wine flight for myself. There was no education or discussion about wine. Next, I ordered food and drinks before our event started and I didn't get my food until an hour after I arrived. Next , the suya was so tough I almost choked on a piece of it. The rice was decent but not a winner for me. Lastly, parking is limited to street parking or an outdoor parking lot up the street. It's a cute place to have a social event or a laid back wine meetup but definitely need more staff, wine education for visitors, and better food options.

    I came here in September for my birthday and been very hesitant to write a review…read more I forgot how I heard about this place but I was excited because it's the first black owned winery in laurel. I think it's the only winery in Laurel so I definitely wanted to come and support. I first went to check it out and see what information I could get to reserve for a large party. It's kind of located in the cut of main st but there's plenty of street parking. Walk in and you'll see there are two settings. It's very welcoming and warm with beautiful decor and many seating on both sides. I explained to the gentleman what I wanted and he said it shouldn't be no problem just reach out to the events manager. It was a bit last minute, I sent an email on 9/22 to come on 9/28 at 5:30pm (had to confirm the number of people). Just to clarify, we spoke on the phone and email for communication of all information. I noticed they had an event that same day but it started earlier in the day and the events manager told me it should end before my guests arrive. I told her I was having 20 people total and I was ordering two charcuterie boards. Everything was confirmed and good to go as I thought. My guests were letting me know they were arriving but were seated in the smaller area. I was hoping by the time I got there it would be handled but no they already started ordering in the smaller area and the staff there said they were told only 10 people were suppose to come but I showed them the emails. The event they had ran longer than it should have which I wish I would have known just to let my guests know. The staff then tried to fix it but literally a whole hour and half later. Once we got in the event room, we had our charcuterie boards and others order their suya and jollof rice. They did not finish their food, it actually looked dry. Before the day, I was told my guests were not able to do flights but the day of they were able to order. I wanted to order some for the party but it's okay, we all figured out which wine we liked best and a couple bought bottles. To end it, the staff brought out a cute cupcake for my friends to wish me happy birthday. They have a speaker for you to connect if you want to play your own music. Other than that, we had fun. Regardless, I'm going to have fun. I recommend to go and have your own experience. I will definitely come back for a last minute date or just to pick up one of the wine bottles I liked.

    So this review is going to be short and sweet, but with one VERY important note. Those of you who…read moreread my reviews know I typically review either really good or really "not so good" restaurants. I'm breaking my own rules, because I feel the 3.9 rating is pretty accurate, with one 5 star + exception. This was a business lunch and a convenient location so there we were. The duck fries as an appetizer were good but needed to be seasoned with a little more salt. I had a strawberry salad with some grilled chicken that was good with the greens, but dry as the desert with the chicken and borderline inedible. Here's the twist!!! My two compadres both had the grilled cheese and lobster sandwich. They both looked at me sheepishly and said, you f ed up!!! William was kind enough to break off a substantial bite and let me try it. Angels sang, children wept, and I almost passed out! It was the kind of perfection we all agreed we would have eaten 5, maybe 6 of these unnaturally awesome sandwiches until we passed out! 3.5 Star service, 4 Star ambience, and some 10 Star bites! Cheers, JimG

The staff are nice, but service and the kitchen seemed a bit slow on a Sunday early afternoon towards the very end of brunch despite the area we were seated only had a few tables filled. The Crab Cake Eggs Benedict was nothing special - feeling like a flat, single-note dish.. Perhaps it was that the hollandaise sauce lacked the acidity (usually from lemon juice) to brighten the dish. Or, that the nod to Maryland - the Old Bay honey - drizzled around the edges of the dish wasn't enough to elevate it to something that is savored with each bite. The Fluffernutter Blondie is a good dessert choice if you love blondies and peanut butter. Although, it was a bit drier than I'd like, the texture was still soft.

He rushed us to order, made us uncomfortable when we were deciding what to order, and asked us if we wanted the house made bread. I knew the bread was $5 but he made no mention of it. If I was coming to eat there and was asked if I wanted bread and didn't know there was a charge, I would be upset. It was kind of deceiving, and when the bill came out, shoved the handheld device to pay in my face and I couldn't go over the bill. He told me to put my phone here when paying and that was that. The bill was incorrect and I had to get a manager to fix it (the manger was very friendly and took care of everything). I also have an issue when a server asks us how the food is, right when the food gets put down on the table. We hadn't even had a chance to take a bite. Now, why I gave this place a five star. Like I said before, the ambiance was amazing, if we had a different server, I'm sure it would had been great! The food: it' was top notch. Some of the best food in Maryland. I wouldn't had changed anything with the food. Everything was seasoned perfectly, had the right textures, and tasted so good! Would I go back? Absolutely!

We started with the Grand Caviar tasting, which was the most expensive caviar option on the menu. For the price, I expected much more. The caviar was extremely salty, to the point where it felt like additional salt had been added on top. The tasting included three varieties of caviar. The caviar they used on one was the exact caviar they used in sushi. Our second appetizer, the tuna dish, was significantly better. While the presentation could have been more refined and visually appealing, the flavor exceeded expectations and was one of the stronger dishes we tried. For my entrée, I ordered the branzino. The fish itself was decent, but the dish suffered from excessive saltiness. The sauce was heavily seasoned, making the entire plate feel like salt layered upon salt. Additionally, the skin was advertised as crispy, but it lacked the crisp texture I was expecting. My husband ordered the rainbow trout stuffed with crab. It was enjoyable and probably the most balanced entrée of the evening, though it wasn't particularly memorable. For sides, I ordered the wild mushrooms, and my husband chose the risotto. The risotto had good flavor but seemed slightly undercooked, with more bite than I would expect. The mushroom side was also on the salty side, and despite being described as "wild mushrooms," it consisted primarily of portobello mushrooms. Overall, the meal fell short of expectations. Given the restaurant's reputation and pricing, I anticipated a more memorable dining experience with better balance and execution. While there were a few highlights, the excessive saltiness throughout multiple dishes made it difficult to fully enjoy the meal. Would I return? Probably not. Dining out is an experience, and I was hoping to discover a new favorite spot. Unfortunately, this one didn't live up to the hype. On to the next restaurant.
