seasons restaurant — Restaurant in Durham

I ate dinner and breakfast here. They were both disappointing and expensive. The breakfast buffet featured moist hash browns, runny and undercooked powdered eggs, actually decent sausage, and a couple of sad looking shelf-stable pastry options. I never got a menu and I was the only person in the dining room so I’m not sure if there were other options, but the buffet was a sad showing even for an American midlevel hotel.

It was excellent! The two weeks I was there I ate at the bar nightly and didn't have a bad meal. Thanks the the bar staff and kitchen staff for accommodating my...
