It was good. Our second time there. My meal the first time was really great. This time I found the eggs overdone. The sourdough was very hard to cut. My first time I had the eggs Benedict which was really good and the eggs were perfect. It is handy coming there as we go to the Theatre right after.

Hidden gem! We had a great Mother’s Day experience here, great eggs Benedict, perfectly cooked and prepared steak frites. Nothing over complicated and no details missed. Great music mix too, Sonic Youth at a little French/Italian bistro is the chef’s kiss. Wish we knew about this place sooner!

Seasoned is next door to Theater Aquarius which is convenient for a show. But wow the food was so delicious. Stuffed French toast, Eggs Benedict and Corned Beef hash were all winners. The Pumpkin Cheesecake was so yummy and Kristin made some tasty cocktails. We have already booked for next month.

The restaurant is very clean, staff pleasant and ambiance is comfortable. The food was delicious and prices in the middle range but the serving was large. It is so nice to be able to go right next door from the theatre to dine. I would highly recommend Seasons to my friends. We have season tickets for the plays so will be attending Seasons after each play. Thanks you for an enjoyable dinner out.

This one was a new spot for me and my foodie friends and we feel we've discovered a gem. Menu was varied enough for all tastes without being overwhelming. Service was professionally friendly (attentive, but not intrusive):) Price was on target for the quality. Just a lovely spot. Looking forward to the patio opening and our next visit!

This is a hidden gem. This bistro is a nice relaxed place to eat with great food. We enjoyed the duck wings and salmon tartare for appetizers and then went on and had tuna nicoise and steak frites for our mains topping it off with a chocolate tarte for dessert. It was a wonderful meal in a cosy relaxed ambience. Service was great too and enjoyed Irish Coffee. We would come to this restaurant again

Seasoned was a great choice for us to eat lunch before our 3 pm show. It is an easy walking distance to downtown theatres and many other attractions. The food was very fresh with unique and tasty seasonings. Do try the duck wings! The Cobb salad was definitely a meal unto itself but don’t hesitate to try an appetizer or salad as well. There are ample menu options to accommodate different needs and diets. They offer a selection of many local craft beers and beverages. Their Sunday Brunch menu sounds delicious and we fully intend to come back for that. An additional feature we also loved was seeing the 2 chefs create their dishes from an open kitchen. With its bright and airy atmosphere that is uncluttered and modern, I’d highly recommend Seasoned for a refreshing experience.

Valentines day preset menu, loved the food, very rich, great display of the flavours. Wish there was more shrimp in the steak, and more meat in the soup though, and I wish I ordered some bread to serve with the soup. Ambience and service is what really made me happy. Limited seating and an open kitchen ensured we all enjoyed truly beautiful meals crafted with so much care. The drinks paired very well aswell

The waitress was rude and neglectful. The crab cakes were tasteless and the duck was cooked so much that it was like eating hard string. Perhaps, another waitress or one who pays attention to all of the customers and some other better-prepared entree could make dining there a better experience. But, the crab cakes can’t be saved! Sorry! But, there’s nothing more disappointing than a bad dining experience for both the diners and the restaurant.

Best place I’ve eaten out in recent memory. The food was OUTSTANDING. My husband and I split the french onion sandwich and canadian pizza. The sandwich especially was something we will remember and have already discussed trying to replicate at home. 10/10 recommend this restaurant.
