Who else is exited about Seasons 52 coming to the Town Center?  I know it's a chain, but they do have great food!  Cant wait till it opens!

I am sure that they have great food, but I would rather see some more local restaurants that locally source their ingredients.  I contacted Seasons 52 awhile ago to ask about their "seasonal" menu.  It is what is in season nationally, not locally.  They have their ingredients shipped here from all over.  We have ver different growing seasons here and if their chef ordered their food from local sources and truely created NE FL seasonal food I would be much more excited.

I am sure the food is great, but its not really seasonal to our area, so its really just a regualar chain restaurant for me and just not that exicting to me, just my opinion.

Thanks for talking about local seasonal foods...we do have a different growing season than most other places in the US...I've pledged myself to only eat at locally owned and operated restaurants..it's not easty but it can be done...the restaurant at my house is usually on the menu but there are some nice places out there with locally grown goodness...so i guess i'm boycotting national companies when it comes to food...it's too easy to do....corporate greed is everywhere and i'm doing my part...long live the local growers.

Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?

I have eaten at the Seasons 52 in Boca Raton several times and this is one of the best chain restaurants out there.
As with many places, the quality of the staff is as important as the food. This place is upscale. A place for a special occaision. 

Suggest you judge it after you have been there. 

Also, a great concept, all desserts are $1.99 (or so), very small portions attractively presented so you can try a couple without eating 1000 calories.

My wife and I eat at the Seasons 52 on Sandlake in Orlando when we are down there. I am looking forward to the one opening at the SJTC.

Because of health issues, she is limited on what she can eat (especially at a restaurant). So Seasons is a good option for us.

I ate at one in Atlanta... very good food and great experience. :)
In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

Seasons 52's food is great, and that's coming from someone who normally hates chains.

It's a welcome addition, to me. I've eaten there in south Florida, looking forward to having one here.

I'm excited. Place looks awesome. Just never get why these places, with the money and resources to scout out locations, always end up at the most obvious places. I'd love to see a place like this somewhere random, I don't know...Riverside?
