American’s 250th Anniversary Menu

Celebrate America’s 250th anniversary with a special $50 three-course dining experience at New Heights Restaurant in the heart of Washington, DC. Inspired by dishes served at past presidential inaugurations and their Congressional Luncheons, this limited-time menu features iconic American flavors tied to presidents starting with George Washington.

The Congressional Luncheon is a longstanding tradition held immediately following the presidential swearing-in ceremony, bringing together lawmakers, dignitaries, and presidential families to celebrate the new administration. While each menu reflects its era and administration, these meals have long highlighted classic American cuisine and regional flavors.

From Chesapeake Oysters to Beef Tenderloin and classic American desserts, guests can enjoy a culinary journey through presidential dining history — all while celebrating in the nation’s capital!
