Seasons Restaurant, Home to Power Breakfast at Four Seasons Hotel Washington, DC

For more than three decades, Seasons Restaurant has earned the reputation as the ultimate power breakfast spot in the nation’s capital to see and be seen.

Hotel Executive Chef Douglas Anderson’s premier breakfast menu features traditional dishes with an elegant twist. Light, healthy meals and freshly squeezed juices are the choice for executive meetings while highlights such as lemon ricotta pancakes, huevos rancheros, and egg white omelet with jumbo lump crab satisfy those ready to explore the city.

After the USD 1 million transformation in 2012, the restaurant expanded to 4,900 square feet (450 square metres) to set a new distinguished atmosphere for its diners while the world class service remained the same. Always anticipating guest needs, the friendly and tenured employees have guests preferences memorized and understand that timely and unobtrusive service is top priority. No matter the discussion, power brokers, lawyers, and politicians all enjoy their meals seated at tables distant enough from the others to allow intimate and sensitive conversations. While many enjoy the coveted window seating overlooking the C&O Canal, guests who wish to bypass a table and simply enjoy a cup of coffee while catching up on the morning news can be seated in a separate living room area with a flat screen TV. The inviting outdoor patio offers both a lounge and dining atmosphere with sectional sofa seating, tables, heaters, and an over-sized market umbrella. For monumental business agreements, a private dining room with a separate entrance can be reserved for up to 12 guests.

The award winning Sunday Brunch is a favourite among Washingtonians and guests alike. A buffet-styled dining experience unites dishes that are both savuory and sweet. With station after station of hot and cold selections, brunch offers an enjoyable mix of regional and seasonal items; a seafood station featuring poached shrimp, oysters on the half shell and crab claws; the action station presenting current food trends; made-to-order eggs; a vast selection of cheeses, charcuterie, meats, fish, savoury sides and market salads; and an entire room dedicated to desserts, all accompanied with an endless pour of prosecco.
