Bristol Lounge

Designer silks swish to-and-fro past the plush, upholstered chairs and leafy potted plants. This emblematic restaurant and lounge within Boston's famously posh Four Seasons serves as a more casual hangout for wealthy patrons than the stellar Aujourd'hui. The menu, however, is nothing less than professionally executed. Start with their Maine lump crabcakes, then proceed to their signature Bristol burger, which is worth every bit of its $17 price-tag. Entrees range from $15-27. Daily specials, which often feature fresh seafood, are another delectable albeit expensive option ($35). Dessert here could be a whole meal unto itself; brace yourself for the gigantic slice of triple layer chocolate fudge cake with raspberry coulis. And if you're feeling especially pretentious, drop in for a spot of tea-, complete with scones, tea sandwiches, tea bread, and pastries, daily from 3-4:30.

Great Views of the Boston Public Gardens and the beautiful swan boats, people watching, tea with friends, drinks after work at the chic new bar, a cozy table by the fireplace on a cold winter night, friendly service.... What more could you possibly want out of a restaurant?
