Why You Should Go: Of all the culinary trends we've seen come and go (molecular gastronomy, Asian-Jamaican-Thai fusion, cook-your-own meal), the least "trendy" but most delicious has the use of fresh, local ingredients on seasonal menus. Let these robust and fresh flavors awaken your taste buds at Seasons Restaurant & Tap Room.

Why You’ll Love It: Dine with a view by panoramic windows overlooking Talcott Mountain Stream and experience a menu that gives you a fresh taste of the season. Stop by for a sumptuous meal any time of day; they're open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, plus a lavish Sunday brunch.

What to Eat: Dine on starters like the wild mushroom bruschetta, classic Waldorf salad or puff pastry baked brie.  Then, taste hearty dishes like pan-seared diver scallops, rack of lamb, seared certified Angus filet mignon with tart cherry demi-glace or scallion crusted wild salmon with roasted tomato coulis.  Find more casual dishes in the Tap Room, like the Country Meatloaf, Chicken Pot Pie or Pappardelle & Meatballs.
