I think this is the best restaurant food in Boston right now, really outstanding. The wine program is exclusively Greek, the list is huge, the grape varieties unfamiliar and unpronounceable, but the waitstaff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The restaurant struggles to keep wines in stock; I ordered two bottles that were not available that night. The place is crowded and noisy, the patrons generally young and hip, lots of fun.

My friend and I had a delicious dining experience. We shared the roasted golden beet salad, which is always phenomenal. Her entree was the shrimp and grits, and after living in VA and visiting southern US cities, she said the Burlington, MA Seasons 52 made some of the best. I ordered the gnocchi, which I have considered ordering over the many times I’ve dined here and finally did. It was delectable. I scraped the bowl clean. The burst of fresh tomatoes and basil combined with the pillowy and slightly cheesy gnocchi were perfect. We finished our meal with very good cappuccino and just right mini desserts. Thanks to our great server, who was very efficient and personable.
