Located on Melba Street in Dallas, Written By The Seasons has been making waves in the city's restaurant scene. Here's what the critics and customers have to say about their dining experience at Written By The Seasons:

One reviewer from The Dallas Morning News visited the restaurant in January 2021 and praised the use of seasonal ingredients in every dish, stating that "the thoughtful composition of each plate reflects a respect for simplicity and integrity." Another reviewer from D Magazine visited in December 2020 and lauded the restaurant's commitment to sustainability, calling it a "green wonderland."

Creative dishes with high quality ingredients," while another on Google Reviews raved about their dessert options, saying "Definitely save room for dessert! They're all amazing!"

However, not all reviews are glowing. A reviewer on TripAdvisor who visited in October 2020 complained about slow service and mediocre food, saying that "the execution just wasn't there." Another Yelp review from November 2020 lamented that some of the dishes were overpriced.
