Equinox Anthem Row

A Quarter Century Later, Equinox Unpacks the Secrets to Its Longevity - Eater DC

"Equinox, co-owned by Chef Todd Gray and Ellen Kassoff, is a renowned American fine dining restaurant in Washington D.C. Celebrating its 25th anniversary, the restaurant is known for its regional, super-seasonal cuisine that emphasizes mid-Atlantic culinary traditions. The menu is reliant on local farmers market produce, offering dishes like Wellington with chanterelle and trumpet mushrooms, and a plant-based Sunday brunch. Despite challenges like a devastating fire in 2009, Equinox has remained a staple in the community, even being recognized by former First Lady Michelle Obama for its involvement in the Chefs Move To Schools campaign." - Lulu Chang
