Just had dinner at. Margaux and knew I had to write a review. This was one of the best meals I have…read moreever had, and I work in events and have eaten at some of the best restaurants in countless cities around the world. I love how their menu is set up. I don't eat a lot and am always torn between multiple items. They offer the ability to have small plates of every item so I can try everything I want. I went with two small plates - the duck and the artichokes. If I could have kicked my plate I would have. I then had the mango coconut crème brûlée for desert - amazing! We were a table of 4 and everyone loved everything we ordered. Huge call out on their mocktail items - they can make many of their cocktails as mocktails. I had the nor'easter and now want the recipe so I can make it at home. Our server, Elle, could not have been more perfect. She was incredibly attentive but not overly so. We told her of two dietary allergies and she clicked them faster than we did. We said we wanted to taste each others and when one of us stated they wanted to taste them all she noted she could try one because it had shellfish,l before we did. She even checked them all for my tomato allergy, not just the items I ordered. Wish every restaurant would set up their menu the same way Will be back and will send everyone I know.

They were serving a half rack of ribs special, served with mac and cheese, cornbread, and onion rings. I mean what can I say--everything was absolutely delicious. One of the best mac n cheeses I've had. Cornbread was blueberry and delicious. Ribs?? Yum. The sauce on top was sweet and the ribs fell off the bone. Onion rings were delicious. Yup--good choice coming here. While sadly this dish is not one of their regular menu items, it still showed me the quality of food this place produces. I did mention to our server that this dish should be rotated onto their menu (please!!) The ambiance is intimate and perfect for a date night or special occasion. The couple next to us was actually celebrating their anniversary and they had a handwritten card on the table waiting for them, it's these little touches that go a long way. Plus the food at the tables around us looked delicious. I will be back to try their official menu, but was thoroughly impressed and left dreaming about the mac n cheese.

We all had fun picking our prix fixe options, then shared them so we all got to try everything. The only things I don't have pictures of are the bread (outstandingly fresh, tasty, and served with flavorful olive oil) and the affogato we had for dessert (excellent coffee over a nice local gelato). In both cases we gobbled them down too fast to take pix! We really enjoyed every dish, and while they vary in size and impact we all ended up very full and content. Our server did a great job of helping us decide as well. The setting is unique and joyful- a medium room packed with people laughing and loving their food & drinks. It was a little loud but not annoyingly so, and contributed to the positive vibe. It's a special occasion sort of place, and we'd definitely put Pammy's on our short list for our next special time.

It also has clarified coconut milk added, but the effect is rather subtle.

My partner and I couldn't decide what to get from their a la carte menu so we ended up going for the four-course tasting menu instead ($85/pp), picking the omnivore and pescatarian options to see if we could try more items. We were actually a little underwhelmed at first, but the tasting menu got better and better after each course. The tasting menu started with some of their in-house pickles and ferments. We had some onion, green beans, and cucumbers, which I wished were crunchier. Each pickle had a good amount of acidity but I wouldn't have minded if the flavors were punchier. The first course of the tasting menu was a salad. Visually it just looked like a pile of lettuce, but they added a savory garlicky sauce and a sprinkle of asparagus salt that allowed the dish to feel refreshing and hearty at the same time. The radishes were crunchy, peppery, and delicious, and we were very pleased to find that many of the later courses also included raw radish. We ended up getting different dishes for the second course, one of which involved deep-fried arancini-like balls of risotto with a creamy sauce, and the other had a cold plant-based loaf served with a vibrant garlic sauce. Both dishes featured some fresh greens that balanced the carby heaviness. By the time we got to the third course, we realized that Forage makes their vegetables shine. The omnivore course came with a steak while the pescatarian course had a pan-fried fish, both of which were also available to be ordered a la carte. While we thought that the steak and fish were seasoned and prepared well, the vegetables stood out to us even more. They weren't prepared in any crazily innovative way but the chefs made the natural flavors of the vegetables shine in a way that complemented the rest of the dish very well. After the third course, we added one optional cheese course ($22/pp) that came with even more radishes. The hazelnut shortbread was super buttery and everything went well together. I was already feeling pretty full and was glad that we only got one cheese course instead of two. Finally, the fourth course had a maple semifreddo with seaweed crisps and a caramel nut sauce. This was amazing and something that I'll think about for a long time! I could really taste the maple flavor in the semifreddo, and the cold creaminess went so well with the salty, crispy seaweed and nutty, buttery caramel. The balance of textures and flavors in the dessert was excellent. Along with the tasting menu, we added one wine pairing ($60/pp). We liked some of the wines so much that we asked for more information about them and learned that some of the wines are imported in small batches. After experiencing how well vegetables are prepared here, I'd love to visit during different seasons to sample their vegetarian menu items.

The rigatoni was cooked perfectly al dente and was probably our favorite dish of the night. However the mackerel and bass were a bit overcooked. This was fine meal overall, but we expected a bit more refinement given the price.

Obviously we love when food is good, but the dishes at Season are great. Their food is made meticulously with careful attention to detail, and they don't hold back on flavor or garnishes. They have a ton of gluten free and plant-based options, and I already have items that I'm coming back to try (hello, gnocchi). The Huckleberry Pimm was perfectly refreshing for the sweltering weather, and everything else was cooked to perfection. Most importantly, the staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, accommodating us with an energetic toddler (she tried all of the food and loved it too).

The menu is slightly adventurous; I found I was scanning the menu for quite some time just trying to decide what to get. I went with the duck pasta and it was good, but not my favorite. The salads were fresh which was nice. It's quite pricey, 3 of us split the bill and we each paid $93, which felt pretty expensive for someone who got a duck pasta dish, and 3-way split the 2 salads and slice of dessert. Only 1 of us ordered drinks. Highlight for me was definitely the strawberry shortcake dessert.
