Goldfinch Tavern, an Ethan Stowell Restaurant
Our upscale, waterfront tavern pays homage to the city’s pioneer days, providing a place for both travellers and locals to mingle over craft beer and cocktails, fresh-caught seafood and the simple-yet-delicious flavours of the Pacific Northwest. Named for the state bird of Washington, the American Goldfinch, the restaurant is a collaboration between Four Seasons Hotel Seattle and Ethan Stowell Restaurants. - Learn More

The Team

Brian Doherty
Executive ChefBrian Doherty is excited to be back with Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts, a journey he began in 1997 in Seattle when he joined the brand’s original location in the Emerald City. Brian has helmed kitchens at some of the leading hotels and resorts in Washington, Hawaii and California. As executive chef, Brian oversees all things culinary at Goldfinch Tavern, seasonal pop-up restaurants at the infinity pool, events and in-room dining. With panoramic views of Elliott Bay and the Olympic Mountains from the restaurant and event space, he has some of the best views in Seattle.
Nettles or razor clams, sockeye salmon, porcini mushrooms, Pacific Northwest oysters – these are just some of my favourite local ingredients to cook with each season.
