about us

our culinary passions

Our team of dedicated hospitality professionals proudly carries on the long standing tradition of excellence that was established at the Multnomah Hotel since its beginning in 1912. These standards are still cultivated today within our Embassy Suites Brand. We take pride in creating customized menus and experiences for our customers, so please ask us for a consultation on how we can make your event truly extraordinary.

The Embassy Suites by Hilton Portland-Downtown is passionately committed to sustainability. These are values that we have incorporated into all aspects of our catering operations. We believe in doing so, not only to create exquisite cuisine with fresh flavors, but also to support the environment and our local community. In addition we have a commitment to use organic, cage free and free range products where possible. We prepare our dishes “restaurant style” —preserving the integrity and freshness of each dish.

Located in the heart of downtown Portland in the Historic Multnomah Hotel, the Embassy Suites by Hilton Portland-Downtown has features replete with elegance and distinction. All of our event space presents unique craftsmanship and appointments such as crystal chandeliers, fireplaces or windows that lend character and shape to the rooms. If you are looking for an alternative venue, the hotel showcases a classical Wine Cellar. Our spacious and opulent suites provide luxurious accommodations for guests, creating the perfect confluence of guest amenities and dramatic event space to inspire endearing memories that will last a lifetime.

meet our chef Chris grew up on the Big Island of Hawaii. While in high school, he began his career working in a luxury hotel. After graduating, he began working for James Beard Award winner Roy Yamaguchi at Roy’s Waikoloa and honing his skills under Chefs Jacquie Lau and Cleighton Lau. After a year, Chris decided to leave Hawaii to further his career and landed in Portland. Chris staged at some of Portland’s best restaurants to continue his growth, working for notable chefs in the city. Chris comes to us from NE Alberta’s Natural Selection restaurant where he worked for three years. The restaurant was awarded Restaurant of the Year Runner-Up, and was featured in Sunset Magazine, Food and Wine Magazine and on The Cooking Channel. Chris says: “The cooking philosophy there changed the way I approach food; building flavors from the whole ingredient. This will be something that I will carry with me forever.”
