Can we consider Seasons Restaurant an underrated restaurant? Yes, I think it's safe to say that. In fact, I think it's criminally underrated.
The fact that Seasons is inside the Manila Pavilion does it no favors, as the former Hilton/Holiday Inn has long been out of the general conversation, so to speak. It's a damned shame as both the hotel and the restaurant has slowly but sure been working hard to become relevant to the increasingly competitive hospitality scene.
Let's talk about what I liked about Seasons. First, the food. Seasons had an amazing appetizer spread, filled with food you don't normally see on a buffet. I also enjoyed the fresh pasta station and the soup station. The main entrees were also unique and appetizing. As with any buffet, there were hits and there were misses, but overall, I think they hit it out the ballpark.
I also appreciated the little things Seasons did to improve your experience, such as serving food in small batches to ensure freshness. Seasons definitely won't overwhelm you with tons of food greeting you. Instead, you get a non-threatening spread that you'd come back to again and again. And at P1,200++ for this buffet? A goddamn steal. read more
