A wonderful breakfast and brunch surprise in a neighborhood strip center. The loaded waffles are indeed loaded and delicious. So is the thick cut bacon. Get a Bloody Mary loaded with extras, and definitely get a pastry to go. Good espresso drinks, too.
This was our third occasion dining at Sweetest Seasons as we continued to explore their dinner menu. Served in a Tapas style, the two of us had the Whipped Feta, the Panko Tomato's, the Bodega Shrimp, and the Mushroom and Spinach Empanadas. Our server was vey friendly and the ambience was pleasant. The meal was absolutely delicious. We'll be back!

Sweetest Season has changed their hours and menu to be a tapas restaurant open Thursday to Saturday. We haven't visited since it was doing brunch pre-COVID. I think their new menu might top their brunch menu. Everything was delicious, from the cold tapas to the heavier meat dishes. Green Tartare, burrata, lamb lollipops, mushroom shallot empanadas, and lemon dessert had me sounding like a broken record praising every dish. There's no other restaurant like this in this part of town. I know they just recently re-opened with this new tapas concept, but this place deserves to be packed every night. It's that good. Definitely coming back soon with family and friends to share this "new" restaurant with others.

What a delight! We enjoyed their wonderful brunch menu and when we found that they reinvented themselves as a tapas restaurant we had to try. What a great menu, great service and delicious food. This is a terrific addition to Tempe's dining scene. Tasty options for vegetarians as well. Highly recommended.

Went here for dinner and it was lovely! Food, staff, and atmosphere was all great. The lamb was cooked perfectly, the mushroom empanadas were really flavorful, and the burrata was also really yummy. Can't wait to try more of their food, the quality really is amazing.

Fresh and fun! The tapas are fantastic and the wines are great, too.

The move to the new menu/format is a success! The tapas are wonderful - in a different neighborhood these would be twice the price and served with much more snobbery. The sangria options is excellent. Service is personable, quick and attentive. Make sure to try the whipped feta.
Very pleasant atmosphere, the meal was very enjoyable, unique, interesting and delicious. The staff was pleasant, courteous, and attentive. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and plan to be regular customers.

Loyal visitor and consumer of all the Sweetest Season goodies and entrees. Last I took my family for the first time to Bodega for the new dinner menu, and all I can say is WOW!! Everything was freshly made, amazing presentation and ridiculously palate pleasing! The cauliflower is not your mother’s vegetable, it’s flavor pack and worth getting two orders! The whipped feta was delicious and surrounded by olives and red peppers for a complete flavor infusion! The empanadas and meatballs, well you’ll just have to try them! There are no words to describe their deliciousness! Todd and Melody, kuddos to a lovely transition to dinner! We will be back! Hugs, your raving fans!

So sad... I drove all the way to Tempe to have some bomb breakfast to find they no longer serve breakfast instead now serving tapas/wine. I’m not going to mess w their ratings since I didn’t try the food & I’m sure it’s good - but why ruin a great thing? ? The place was always packed because their breakfast and coffee was so amazing.
Sweetest Season is Absolutely Amazing, becoming one of our favorites in the Valley.Melody has cornered the market in her style of making you feel as if every meal has been custom designed especially for you.From the moment you walk in, you're treated as family and the Service is stellar.Recently, they are changing gears, offer evening meals. We're excited to see what the Elkins's have in store for us !!!Chip & Sherry

Favorite breakfast place. Converting over to dinner device. Excited and sad at the same time. Great food.
I made a reservation here for Mother's Day. We have a family of six so a reservation is a must for Mother's Day. I got a reminder text and confirmed 24 hours prior to the event. We showed up at the restaurant, and the doors were locked and lights were out. A sign on the door said: “New Hours: Thursday-Saturday” Not the kind of Mother's Day I was trying to give my wife. Thanks a lot.

What a great hidden little gem in the area. We stopped by here after a workout at the gym up the street. I got the super tasty waffles with whip cream. They were super good. I was a little bad and tried their candied bacon too and will say it was pretty good. Great place to eat nice breakfast. One of the staff mentioned they are doing a dinner service too. I am looking forward to trying it.
