About the restaurant

Upscale Patio Bar and Restaurant Overlooking Old Town Albuquerque

Seasons Grill in the heart of the Sawmill District in Old Town is a local favorite and a visitor's destination! The concept is driven by one core idea: take the best fresh and seasonal ingredients and prepare them in a casually elegant environment. The open kitchen's wood-burning rotisserie & grill creates an opportunity for signature dishes such as Kobe Ribeye Filet, Grilled Jumbo Sea Scallops and a daily fresh fish to be more than a meal, but an experience.

We have a great Happy Hour Wednesday thru Friday on the Rooftop, including food and drink specials. Dine on the second story balcony or inside with open breezes!

Seasons has an extensive award-winning wine list, a full bar and several private dining options for up to 100 people. For more information please visit us at seasonsabq.com or call 505-766-5100

Our party of four had a wonderful experience today for lunch. Our server was timely, knowledgeable, competent, and friendly. We each had something different, yet delicious. The new winter soup -the chicken one - was fantastic!

A lovely evening. We were seated near a VERY loud table, and Trinity - our waitperson - moved us and provided excellent service all evening long. I highly recommend Scalo and will be returning.
