Review from Charlotte W.
North York, ON
I don't know why I have never discovered the Season's oyster plate at their brunch before. One Sunday, my dad, my boyfriend and I came here for brunch and I was not expecting much, other than the usual fanfare of waffles, pancakes, sausages, creamed potatoes (which I love!)... But, to my immense pleasure, there was a full plate of huge oysters, and I happily piled them onto my plate (I think I left one for the person behind me - I'm not proud but...) That was the beginning of a beautiful love story.
Thus, I will always enjoy Season's brunch for the oysters which is the only thing I eat here (and then I will also have eggs, sausages and waffles just to even it out). During one sitting, I was so focused on devouring my oysters that my dad counted at least 24 oysters' shells. For those who worry about freshness, I can safely say they are. I have never been sick.
They also have lots of other seafood selections such as crab, shrimp, and fish. For those who do not want fruits du mer for brunch, never fear, because Seasons has everything between the breakfast and lunch world to suit all fancies: rice, steak cuts, eggs, cheese, fish, vegetables, soup, and a selection of desserts.
The price for the brunch buffet is $45/person which is not the cheapest, but in my opinion, you get a lot of choices and variety for the money. It does get busy so I highly, HIGHLY recommend reservations.
Now for the off-brunch period, I have to say that lunch and dinners at Seasons is extremely average. I would actually go there for drinks and the atmosphere because the recent renovation has made the restaurant much more airy and light. They even have tables right beside the window, but if you do not like people walking by you all the time (it's not heavy traffic) then sit on the upper, raised level. The upper level has these cute circular booths that my parents and I always try to reserve.
I will also be staying at the Prince for a wedding this weekend so stay tuned for more reviews about the actual hotel! -
Review from Laura C.
Toronto, ON
We've been coming here for every [Parent's] Day for the last two years or so. At $50+ a person, I really expect more from them.
Mother's Day was great, and food had variety and lots of selection. They had an odd thing, instead of a omelette station, there was a make on the spot egg benedict, which made no sense as there is hardly any customization. THe worst part was that the poached egg was already cooked and sitting in cold water - the chef had to heat it up before serving, and it still remains only lukewarm. They got rid of this and went back to the omelette station that next time we came.
For Dad's day, it wasn't to par with the previous visit.
Oysters did not have usual shallot vinegar to be served on the side. I do not like the tomato sauce. When I asked them about it, the servers had no idea what I was talking about.
For the main courses, other than breakfast foods, you're getting lamb, chicken, some veggies, potato and a carving station for roast beef.
Less choice in dessert (only bread pudding - same and some standard cakes - no chocolate mousse or anything different)
Overall, it's quite a treat, and there isn't really anything else in the area to dress up and go to on such an occasion. They need to make the main buffet area bigger instead of being stuck in such a small room.
However, I think there are other buffets in town that provid ea better value for your money.Listed in: Where to take my parents to…
