Whenever there is a decision to be made that has an impact on flavor, you want the chef to go for it. Dinner at Seasons proved that the simplest of dishes with few ingredients pose the biggest threat to the chef. My steak was tender, well seasoned, and served at the temperature requested 3 Stars. The French Onion Soup was a huge fail...amateur hour. French onion soup, an incomparably delicious and heartwarming dish of carmelized onions, beef stock, toasted bread, and grated Comté cheese. Thats it! Broil the cheese on top and voila. French Onion Soup looks complicated, mostly in its presentation, but it's actually quite simple to make. There were too many things wrong with Season's version to list. Canned soup heated in a microwave would have been better. Seasons has the potential to be a culinary gem, in a small town littered with lifted trucks and double wides. Lone Pine living has become an inescapable marker of class; a province of fast food and canned domestic beers along the way to Mammoth. If you can not make it to Mammoth by dinner time, stop in for a steak, then leave. However, if you find yourself in Lone Pine during the cold months of winter thinking there is no better option than a hot crock of French Onion Soup overflowing with bread and cheese, keep driving. The closet by the restrooms substitutes as a bar. Pull up a barstool, mingle with the Real Housewives of Lone Pine, and evesdrop on the drama and scandals in this one horse town. Watch the ladies drink as they risk their dignity and cut each other down. read more

Classic steakhouse, excellent lamb and very quick and friendly service. Charming open dining room right on main st.

Came here to celebrate finishing the JMT with a group of friends. Service was great and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Many of us ordered the New York Raymond. It was perfectly cooked and delicious but peppery. We had multiple drinks and requests that they quickly fulfilled. It was a fun night of delicious food and awesome company! read more

Third visit to Seasons Restaurant. The food quality, service and price is amazing. This is the best kept secret on 395.

STAY AWAY! My buddies and I stopped here on the way to Mammoth Lakes and thought we'd splurge on an expensive dinner. We all got the Scampi Florentine and the chaos it wrecked on our bowels the following weekend became the stuff of legend. We made it to our Airbnb that night and that's when the trouble began. A painful prodding in our stomachs, and then what can only be described as a geyser of the most foul smelling farts you've ever smelled erupted from each of us. Like the smell of an ancient curse, an egyptian shrimp tomb, served in watery noodles. A constant stream of them shooting from our pants, soaking our clothes. We retreated to separate corners of the room, trying to speak through watery eyes, one friend hanging his rear out the balcony door in a futile attempt to create an exhaust system. Dubbed, "shrimp farts" little did we know that the pestilence would cling to our innards the rest of the weekend. My friend got it the worst, as that night his flatulence mutated by some arcane gain of function within his gut into full blown food poisoning, keeping him awake the entire night with feverish vomiting and utterly ruining his next day of snowboarding. The next morning he had stumbled to the living room like a creature from a George Romero film, the smell from his room hitting like a wave; the stench so bad I sincerely worried that we would lose our security deposit. One man down and unable to ski, the rest of us persevered on, our shrimp farts marinating within our snowboarding jackets and slowly crawling up to our noses like some sort of time released chemical warfare. So if you happen to be passing through on your way to Mammoth and try to eat at the Merry Go Round next door but the wait is too long so you decide screw it let's try this Seasons place, and you are at all invested in having healthy bowel movements for the next 72 hours, stay away! read more

We have been here a few times and the food is always excellent. Another gem in a small town. The salmon, elk and pasta have all been delicious. Very nice people and great service too. read more

I cannot even begin to describe the experience I had here. Firstly I had been camping for 4 days across southern Oregon and California just before my visit, I was dying for warm food and the echo of a busy restaurant. Innocuous, yes, but also alluring and worth the plunge. Easing back toward the bar past the bustling families and the hinged double western doors sat a sight for sore eyes, the bar. Sadly I am writing this review two years after my visit and I can't recall the bartenders name but as a bartender myself I will tell you this man was my hero this day. After miles of hikes, cuts, dehydration, and days of dried fruit, anything could make me feel like a princess, but this man made me feel like a queen. My craving of an ice, cold dirty martini with bleu cheese stuffed olives was happily fulfilled by this gentleman. When I had asked if he had blue cheese olives, he kindly said "no" and I moved on. I proceeded to watch him go get olives, get blue cheese, and stuff them in front of me without a wince. Again, remember, this was two years ago, I still recall how tender my venison was with the decadent cranberry sauce and local steam vegetables. I think I had dessert too, just go here, it's phenomenal! read more

Once again, GREAT. Brought mother-in-law along with wife to a long weekend in the eastern sierras. We stopped here for dinner and it was great as usual all the meals came out correctly seasoned, prepared and hot. The one thing I want to add about this trip is we had time to spend in the bar which is an interesting little room, but the information that we got from the bartender and the conversations we had added to the experience greatly!! If I could've only remembered his name. read more

Food was standard American fare. No really sure but my steak tasted decent but was probably frozen had that Costco vibe. Veggies were basic but at least not over cooked the mash potatoes were a bit skimpy and in that fancy swirl not sure but could have been instant mashed potatoes. The staff was friendly and observant although one of the bussers wore a lot of cologne and was a bit overwhelming. Ambiance is dated could be really cute with a little upgrade. Yes there is a bar in the hidden in middle of the restaurant maybe 6/7 stools packed with locals. I would recommend if you want a sit down dinner because there is not too much competition. If you're heading north on the weekend check out "still life cafe" food is above amazing and ambience can't be beat just call ahead they are typically open Saturday and Sunday for lunch and dinner. read more

We have been coming to this restaurant for a couple years now and we love it! We can't believe that we didn't know about it all the years we've been traveling 395. The service is so friendly and the staff is helpful and efficient with everything. The food is absolutely wonderful! Cocktails are perfection- not too sweet, plenty of alcohol and tasty creations. Love the Mexican Martini and Old Fashioned. Everything is delicious and fresh, and top quality ingredients which is so hard to find anymore. Our favorites are the ribeye with peppercorn sauce and the Italiane shrimp. The vegetables that come with dinner are soo good. Sourdough bread is fantastic and the salads are fresh and quality. If you like blue cheese they have a perfect dressing that you can tell is homemade and fresh. We make sure to always stop here when passing through now. We wouldn't miss it because it is such a treat! read more

Excellent food, good service. We had the rack of lamb, the escargot, and the elk medallions. Elk was tender and flavorful. Lamb was cooked very well, soft and juicy. Escargot was classically buttery and garlicy. Very nice surprise at the end of a long day of driving. Highly recommended. read more

Great friendly service. The menu has a vegetarian section. Best Italian food I have had probably in forever.

This restaurant is open even though Yelp shows it closed! It's only open from 5-9 pm for dinner! Steaks were delicious- New York Steak & Filet Mignon. The mashed potatoes were delicious seasoned very well. The vegetables were soft yet crisp (perfectly made)! Food was outstanding and for the price it was perfectly priced for the steak that we had. The waiters and staff were amazing, very attentive and very kind. During the pandemic they are seating at 50% capacity and the staff are all wearing masks and there is hand sanitizer at the entrance. If you want a GREAT STEAK this is the place. It's exactly 1 hour drive from Ridgecrest! I would give this place a 100 stars if I could but 5 is the best Yelp gives! read more

Lone Pine is not exactly the culinary epicenter of California and there are very limited dining options. You have to think that maybe you aren't going to get quality. Happy to say Season exceeded all expectations. Food was extremely well prepared, tasted great, nice and attentive but not pushy service, owner was happy to see us. Far better than what it should be. Kudos to this establishment if you stay in (or just need to eat) in Lone Pine this should be option #1. read more

Our trip to Las Vegas allowed us time to visit Death Valley and instead of going back, we decided to spend a night in Lone Pine, CA. Who knew, certainly not us that we would would find this gem of a restaurant! Yelp to the rescue again. We took the advice of making a reservation even though it was a Tuesday evening, good thing we did. This place was very busy and had a waiting line when we finished about 7:30. The before dinner drinks, Martini for my wife and gin and tonic for me was the perfect start to our dinner. Warm bread came with the salad that had just the right amount of dressing on it. My wife had the Trout and I had the Pork Tenderloin. Both of us swear our dish was better than the others! Each dish had a vegetable medley and roasted potatoes that complimented the meal. Her trout had a lemon butter sauce and my pork had merlot sauce on it. We finished the meal with two cups of coffee with a shot of Baileys in it. I hope our travels find us here again sometime, as we would most certainly come back. Thank you for a great way to end our day read more

The food and service was absolutely fantastic and excellent here!!! 5 stars! The ambience is great as is the music they play.

The food was amazing! My husband couldn't decide between the pork chops and the trout so after a conversation with Edgar, the best waiter in town, my husband went with the trout. And he and I both really enjoyed it. It was cooked perfectly of flavor. I had the shrimp scampi Provençal and it was just as flavorful. Good garlic flavor but not too much! We were greeted by Tiffany who was so friendly and got us right to a table. Edgar really knows the menu and was so helpful with proving information that we needed to choose a great meal. The menu has great variety and it was hard to choose! read more

We had one night in Lone Pine and I had my heart set on the Lone Pine Smokehouse BBQ but they I guess went out of business. In a tiny town like Lone Pine there are only a few restaurants and whole searching for a last minute dinner solution ( Without turning on the oven in our motorhome back at camp) we stumbled across a real gem. I am a huge fan of elk and was surprised they had elk on their menu. My boyfriend is a huge steak fan and they had, well multiple steak selections. His filet was perfectly cooked. The sauce it was served with was great. My elk was really great. The side salad I had with housemade blue cheese dressing was just fantastic. We asked for something spicy and were brought out some tasty habaneros straight from the chefs garden. Man did they highlight the meal! For a Friday evening even though the restaurant was very busy the service was great! We live in Big Bear Lake when we are not traveling and we never go out to eat at home. We have so many restaurants in our hometown and none of this quality. We both said if we had a restaurant like Seasons in our hometown, we would go out to eat more often! read more

We absolutely loved this restaurant! We were in town for our anniversary, the service was amazing and the food was delicious. We both ordered the elk medallions, portion was very large and the elk was so tender. The sauce on the elk was the beat and really set this place apart. Definitely would make this a stop anytime we are in the area. read more

We have always had good luck eating at Seasons Restaurant in Long Pine, while driving Highway 395. There are also great burger and barbeque places (Copper Top in Big Pine!) along the road, but sometimes we want more of a sit-down dinner. We had an especially great dinner and excellent service at Seasons this past week so I decided to leave a review. When I looked first at the recent reviews, they were mostly excellent, but I was surprised to see a couple of not-so-good reviews. Our vote is definitely on the excellent scale! read more

Generous portions. We had a great meal. Salmon filet with dill sauce and the burger. Both were cooked to perfection and delicious. We got there right when the opened at 5pm and the place filled up quickly so I'd recommend making a reservation. The desert was a tad disappointing because it was listed on the menu as a chocolate mousse (nothing else) and it was actually a mousse CAKE. So it wasn't at all what we thought we had ordered. It was ok but we wouldn't have ordered it had we known it was a cake. Service was super nice. And quick. We'd come back read more

Just passin' through. Solo night in Lone Pine. Looking for the closest thing to fine dining a lady could ask for. I opted for the bar and very glad I did. Clinton, bartender, so much more than just " tending bar". Turns out he's what I refer to as a "master bar tender." He has worked 5 star restaurants in " famous" places. He understands the art of 'one on one' in a bar setting. My mango "whatever " cocktail was sublime. Conversation was heartfelt and sweet. The bar at Seasons is a special little corner of the world if you're passing through Lone Pine, as I was. Leaving there, and headed for life elsewhere..... And there was Clinton. A big hearted guy who knows the art of crafting an excellent cocktail, meaningful conversation about food and life, and a fun, fine dining experience on the way from here, to there. My experience having a a drink and dinner at Clinton's bar tonight was, well, beyond...... a really special fine dining experience. No photos needed. Pasta dinner was 5 star. I chose a pasta chicken with vegetables and tomato/basil. So good. As was the house salad. What a treat to find such a gem in the place between here and there. Thank you Clinton! read more

First, the staff was very friendly and attentive. We immediately got a bread basket with warm and fresh bread. We ordered filet mignon bernaise, pork tenderloin and scampi italienne. The salad was very fresh. The filet mignon bernaise was delicious and tender. Pork tenderloin and scampi were equally excellent. Overall we had a very nice experience. read more

I love Lone Pine and I love this restaurant. Everything was delicious. Cocktails were fantastic too.

I don't know how our group did it, but we lucked into a good evening here. It was a Saturday night in the middle of the town's "busy season. It's reputedly the best place to go in town fr a steak dinner. Normally, it would've been a good idea to had made a reservation, first, ne? We blunder in to ask how long the wait would be (just to check). We were more than half prepared to have to trudge over to another place for a second-choice dinning spot. Much to my surprise, we were able to get seated immediately! Our party numbered 5, and they just happened to have a table that could seat up to 6 ready. Dumb luck of the draw. The drinks waitress took our beverage orders while we were supplied with glasses of ice water. [Note: I was appreciative of their diligence in keeping the water glasses filled. We'd been out hiking for a week, and all of us were more than a bit dehydrated, despite our best efforts.] I ordered the flatiron chuck steak, medium cooked. Most of us ordered some form of steak: New York strip, Top sirloin, and the like. To the kitchen's credit, we all received chunks of meat that were cooked according to our individual specifications. The meat was nice and flavorful. There was nothing exceptional about the marinade, but that's okay. It tasted just fine, as it was served. The service was pretty on top. (I wonder if it helped that our table was fairly close to the front entrance and sort of a showcase spot?) At any rate, the service was good and the timeliness of the bread, drinks, entrees, and follow-up desserts was impeccable. I liked that as an alternative to sweets for dessert, they had after-meal alcoholic "dessert" selections, as well. It was a pleasant thing to be able to indulge in a 15 year old MacCallan single malt after a good bit of beef. Kudos to the wait staff for being on top of everything. I also appreciate that they were gracious about having separate checks for our group. read more

Generally, Lone Pine is just a short stopover for my wife and I as we travel north to either Mammoth or Reno. This time however, on our return to Los Angeles we decided to stay the night to make our trip a bit easier. I had heard good things about Seasons Restaurant and so we decided to go there for dinner. We were amazed. The food was excellent with a capital "E". My wife had the salmon, and I opted for the grilled pork tenderloin. Both entrees were done to perfection and rivaled the type of food that you would get in the trendy westside and beach areas of LA at substantially less cost. Also, the salad was made up freshly so there was no "sogginess" to the lettuce which can happen if salads are made up in advance. The sound level in our dining area was just right- no boisterous voices at a bar trying to see who could be heard the loudest- just a pleasant blend of conversations in the background. In addition, our waiter was super friendly and personable. To sum it all up. It was a great dining experience, and we plan to go back when we can. I give this place a big thumbs up! read more

We've eaten here twice now. Both times everything was perfect. Great cocktails, salad and main course. Best restaurant in Lone Pine. I had the trout and my husband had the salmon tonight. Loved it! Rice cooked perfect and broccoli cooked perfect. read more

A Decent Meal in Lone Pine, CA After a week in Death Valley, we were desperate for a decent meal. We got one at Seasons in Lone Pine (where it's slim-pickins, believe me). Our food was not exceptional but it wasn't bad, either. I can't remember what we both had, but I do remember the drinks were a good pour, the server was accommodating, and I was not miserable and discontent after our meal. There are several other places to eat (dinner) in Lone Pine and we tried two others, much to our regret, so stick with Seasons and you'll get a decent meal at a decent price. read more

Seasons restaurant is a 3 star Michelin restaurant, period. I've eaten in Michelelin star restaurants and I've never come upon a chef that prepares a meal so excellent, that it leaves such a lasting impression. The filet mignon was aged, cooked and seasoned so excellent, that its so much better than Maestros or Ruth Chris steakhouses. The meat melts in your mouth. The potatoes and veggies are prepared so well, that they compliment the meat, not take away from it. The dessert is so light, airy and perfectly sweet, that it cleanses your pallet and just rounds out the meal perfectly. WOW, what a find! Can't wait for this restaurant to get its first @Michelin star. Way to go chef!! Definitely stop by here to experience a meal like no other. Excellent is all I can say. To the staff and chef, magnifique!! Bon appetite to all that get the privilege to eat here. read more
