April 2010: This review was written by GF Lady, the previous owner of GlutenFreeAlbuquerque.com and is used here with her permission.
I had heard from friends about the great meals and wonderful ambiance at Season’s Rotisserie & Grill, but I never had an occasion to go there until recently. I will definitely be going there the next time we go out for a special meal.
Season’s is located in Old Town and you can choose to eat outside on the covered porch that fronts the restaurant or inside where every seat offers a beautiful visual experience. The servers are well educated on the meals that are prepared in the open kitchen. As with most restaurants in the more expensive price range, fresh ingredients rather than packaged mixes are used and consequently, several of the entrees can be easily altered to be gluten free.
Scallops, Quinoa & Vegetables
Pictured here are the Pan Seared Scallops from the lunch menu. The two large scallops were perfectly cooked and completely fresh. One of the side dishes was quinoa that had been cooked with chopped red pepper and wild rice. The other side dish was a combination of mushrooms and fresh peas. Each component of this meal was placed on a plate that had been covered with a light and delicious lemon tarragon sauce. The combination of tastes was incredible.
We also ordered the chocolate mousse dessert for everyone at the table to split. It was beautifully presented on a plate that had been decorated with a raspberry sauce and the mousse was topped with candied kumquat rinds. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to take a picture of it before everyone started tasting it. It tasted heavenly!
