We made the Sunday drive from Greenville with high hopes and brunch sized appetites, pulling into Seasons at Highland Lake about an hour or two before the buffet closed. The setting was serene, and it was odd that we were the only people there, but staff mentioned we’d just missed the rush and that this was their slow season.
Atmosphere wise, it’s a winner. Nestled in a secluded hotel lodge like setting, it feels like part of a mountain retreat. A live guitarist played soft tunes and took requests, adding to the relaxed, upscale vibe. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to unplug and stay for the weekend.
Unfortunately, the food didn’t match the mood, or the name. Everything looked beautifully presented and artfully arranged, but almost all of it fell flat in flavor. It’s like they used all the seasoning on naming the restaurant. There’s no shortage of options on the buffet, and you might find a few things you like, but don’t expect anything memorable. None of the dishes are worth mentioning though, please explore yourself.
A lovely setting for a quiet morning, but not a destination brunch spot when it comes to the food. Let’s hope the next season brings a bit more spice. I hope to be back and give it another try.
The atmosphere was quiet although they had a guitar player singing light jazzy, old standards, which we really enjoyed. Service was extremely attentive, and just the right pace.
The food was excellent. My wife requires gluten free prep and they brought her a separate menu which was nicely varied. We shared an heirloom tomato and burrata caprese salad that they split onto separate plates. My wife had a seared salmon dish with risotto and I had a tomahawk pork chop with linguini. Both entrees were plated beautifully and were delicious.
The food is fresh and tasty with modern twists. The cook is phenomenal! Service is fast and friendly without being overbearing. They offer a nice selection of wines and a full bar. We had the trout and the steak. Both were excellent. We had creme brulee and a key lime tart for dessert – again both excellent.
We will definitely be back to this wonderful restaurant.
Service was extremely lacking. We had to bus our own table multiple times, our waitress ignored us, and we were never offered coffee or drinks — we had to ask just to get basic service.
The food quality was also poor. The salmon was cold, and other items were not properly maintained. The salad appeared left out and wilted, which was especially disappointing for a holiday buffet.
On Christmas Eve, guests expect a well-run, attentive experience, and this was not it. Overall, it felt disorganized and neglected, and it really took away from what should have been a special evening.
