    I've been here twice, and look forward to my next visit! I enjoyed the bbq sandwich, coleslaw, and fried green tomatoes both visits! I was with my husband the first time, took my daughter and granddaughter the second time. We all enjoyed the food, service, and location location location! Seeing planes take off while enjoying company and food...such an experience! (My attached video not the greatest!) Owners/ employees are down to earth people and really friendly. Seating is great, indoor or outdoor. Great vibes from what seemed to be regular customers. Can't wait to go for dinner during a show.

    3.5 Great views of the planes | Fun | Food is ok Based on my both visits and trying different foods here, I recommend: Country Fried Steak or Meat Loaf, Mac and Cheese and Slaw. We came here to eat while watching the planes taking off / landing. My husband is a private pilot so he loves checking out small airport's restaurants. They have outdoor and indoor sitting and I recommend you sitting outside to see the planes. The server was nice and they didn't take long to come check on us. The food is ok. I've been here twice and tried different things and everything I get tastes like canned/frozen food. First time I got flounder, mashed potatoes and slaw. Second time I got chicken tenders. Flounder and chicken tender taste like frozen food, mashed potatoes taste like those powder that you add water to it. The slaw was good. My husband ordered Country fried Steak, Mac and cheese and green beans. Steak and Mac were pretty good but the beans tasted like canned beans. Meemaw came with us and ordered the meat loaf and that was pretty good. We came here during Lunch Special time (until 3pm) so you get 1 meat + 2 sides for $9.95 which is a reasonable price for what you get. It's a nice place to come and hung out. Come for the view and experience not for the food. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad, it's mostly just not fresh/homemade. ....Don't eat the ketchup btw. It was sitting on the table outside in the sun and in the back says "refrigerate after opening"....

    Outside seating is absolutely beautiful. Definitely enjoyable and brings back nostalgic feels. The service is incredible. The owner makes you feel at home. The food is immaculate.

    Ruben Sandwich is delicious

    We ordered the Ruben sandwich and burgers. Very good and fresh food. Love the atmosphere outside watching the airplanes and the sunset. Also great live music.

    My staple diet for two months,

    It's great to be able to see the planes takeoff and land , either inside or on the small patio area.

    I wanted a nice steak for my birthday dinner and had been eyeing Seasons52 for a while and my lady…read moregranted my wish. My birthday is Christmas week and I typically don't go out as I simply would rather not have to deal with the anticipated crowds. It was indeed crowded (on a Tuesday!) but my experience is one I'll never forget. She had made reservations and so to save a bit of time, we did valet parking. And from the friendliness of the valet, to the near immediate greeting and seating upon arrival, Seasons52 truly made my birthday special. I honestly can't give enough kind words for our server Tori - she was a genuine treat! Professional, attentive, kind ... just a beautiful soul. Please acknowledge Tori for the kind human being that she is and the wonderful service she provides. And my steak - the 8 oz. filet - oh my! Easily one of the best I've ever had! Perfectly cooked and seasoned. I savored every bite! Even the young guy at valet parking (wish I had gotten his name) was attentive and pleasant. I left them both nice, FAT tips with the hope that I made there day just as much as they made mine. They were even intentional about thanking us for our visit as we were leaving. Thank you so much Seasons52 for making my birthday a memorable one!

    I had a pretty disappointing experience here, especially considering the price point. I ordered one…read moreof the more expensive items on the menu (steak and lobster), and unfortunately found a hair in my food, which completely ruined the moment. To their credit, the staff did apologize and replaced the meal, and also offered a Caesar salad. However, the salad itself was not good and didn't really make up for the situation. The replacement entrée was fine--it tasted good--but by that point the experience was already affected. For a place like this, you expect a higher level of quality control and attention to detail. While they did try to fix the issue, finding something like that in your food is hard to overlook. Overall, just not the experience I expected for the price. Only good thing was my server he was excellent, I wish I could have remembered his name.
