Made a reservation for my sister-in-law’s birthday brunch w/ our family. The restaurant is beautiful! We all loved the open kitchen concept, and our waiter was amazing! He gave great recommendations on food, drinks, and appetizers. He offered to place our cake in the fridge, brought out extra utensils and plates, just overall extremely accommodating. The biggest flex for me was I mentioned it was my sisters-in-law’s birthday when making a reservation, and they had menus that said ‘Happy Birthday Chloe’ on them. Huge brownie points lol!

Once again Seed has blown us away!! The food and service here is just top notch I am so impressed by this restaurant. I believe our server’s name was Alison, she was so sweet and attentive we really enjoyed her service. Corn fritters, onion ginger leek soup, steak frites, and the lemon ricotta ravioli were amazing!! I added scallops on the pasta and omg- do this. It was seriously delicious. Cocktails were lovely. And the dessert… I had a peanut butter chocolate parfait with banana ice cream and peanut brittle. It was legitimately the best dessert I’ve ever had I was amazed by how all the textures and flavors came together to create such a perfect bite every time. I can’t wait to come back to this restaurant!!

They were fantastic. I went for my birthday and they were so courteous and really made the night special. Sadly, we had accidentally left they happy birthday card that the staff signed there but we did keep one of the menus that had my name and birthday on it. The food was fantastic and everyone was very pleased with their meal. The complementary tres leches cake that they gave for my birthday was also incredible.

After many years of patronizing Seed this was a very disappointing visit. The 3 star rating was for the wonderful service and ambience. The deviled egg appetizer was heavy on the hot smoked salmon and was not as good as in the past.I ordered the tuna medallions in tamarind marinate with gochujang squash and cucumber along with a miso pumpkin puree. "NONE of the mentioned flavors were present". The entire dish, although perfectly cooked and beautifully presented, had zero flavor. The squash and cucumber was absolutely bare of any seasoning or sauce. I attempted to eat it but ending up sending it back. The waiter did remove it from the bill and insisted on bringing us a dessert to go. Not a reason for the 3 star only review but I am disappointed to see that there are no longer white wines from Burgundy on the menu. I understand the past couple of pandemic years have been tough on restaurants and staffing. Perhaps the cooks are either new or not as experienced. Either way we hope this is remedied as Seed has always been a comfortable "go to" spot for us prior to the pandemic.
Seed Kitchen & BarResponded 5 days agoHello Janie, thank you so much for taking the time to write about your experience with us. We are disappointed at how it turned out and it's very rare that we have any issues with food at Seed. We assure you that this is a very rare occasion. Please email me at jraymond@eatatseed.co m at your earliest convenience so we can discuss how we would like to make this rare experience up to you. I hope to hear from you soon. Jason Raymond, GM

The only reason you received a good on ambience was apparently your air conditioning was on the fritz. That is what our waiter (who was wonderful) told us anyway. We were at the Chef's Table with friends who had never been to Seed before. I think being next to the kitchen with limited air made it even hotter. I know that is something you couldn't control though.

We celebrated a birthday and we’re coming back to celebrate another milestone birthday with a larger group of friends. The ambiance and service were just what we were looking for, and to top off the birthday they delivered a personalized menu, and large slice of tres leche cake. Dressy or casual, full bar, lovely spacious dining indoors and outdoor dining patio. Free parking. Great service and food preparation. Plenty of interesting choices to please everyone.
