Seasons 52

Seasons 52 is one of the newest, trendiest restaurants in Miami, FL. It is located on Miracle Mile in Coral Gables. This area is historic and full of beautiful, delicious, and popular bars and restaurants.

This restaurant is a fresh grill and wine bar that offers seasonally-inspired menus.

In addition, they are “healthy-living friendly” because every item on their menu is 475 calories or less. The dining room decor is warm and inviting with dark woods and beautiful lighting and accessories. Reservations are available online and they are able to accommodate small or large groups.





To start we ordered the garlic chicken flatbread with red onions, roasted red peppers and mozzarella cheese. Then we shared an organic baby spinach salad with raspberries, toasted pine nuts and crumbled Gorgonzola cheese. For the entree, my husband ordered the caramelized sea scallops with asparagus and pearl pasta. I ordered the rainbow trout with roasted potatoes and vegetables.


My husband and friends could not resist and ordered several mini indulgences and coffee.

The meal was outstanding and the restaurant and service impeccable.

I recommend Seasons 52 wholeheartedly. Drop in and enjoy it yourself!

Houston's from Atlanta to Miami

Houston's from Atlanta to Miami

The first time we ate at a Houston's Restaurant was in Buckhead (the affluent suburb of Atlanta) and the second time was in Coral Gables (the affluent suburb of Miami).  It may be a little pricey for a chained American restaurant, but the atmosphere, service, and food is always top-notch. 

On this day we had the spinach appetizer along with their juicy burgers.  Simple meal, great conversation and family time, and we washed it down with tea.  Now, let me tell you that we overheard someone at the table next to us order tea, BUT with orange slices and fresh brown sugar.  We got encouraged to do the same and it was probably the best tea we have ever had.  Swapping out the traditional lemon and white sugar makes a huge difference. We have tried doing this in other restaurants, but no luck.  They never have orange slices and only brown sugar packets!
