At Celilo Restaurant and Bar, we promote and preserve the local food economy through our commitment to local vendors and sustainable business practices. Ad an extension to our food philosophy, the interior space at Celilo was crafted by local artisans and craftsmen. Celilo is a LEED compliant business. Almost all elements of construction were regionally sourced and all major wood elements were recycled or certified. We know the warm ambiance we’ve created will serve as an inviting venue for your special event. We have several reservation options for you to choose from:

Reserve the Restaurant. Celilo is available as a private venue for parties of up to 80 guests. With this option, we will close the entire restaurant to the general public for the day or evening. You will have access to all of Celilo’s amenities, including a four course menu, a full staff of servers and bartenders, our i-pod compatible sound system, tables, chairs, flatware, plateware and glassware. We will be happy to help you make arrangements with florists and musicians to make your special event a truly memorable occasion.

Reserve a Table. Let Celilo help you host a luncheon or dinner party. For gatherings of 22 or under, you may make a reservation for lunch or dinner. We will compose a prix fixe menu customized to suit your preferences and/or your dietary needs.

Off-Site Catering
Most off-site events are to commemorate big milestones in the lives of our clients. These events represent lots of time, energy and money. Celilo honors this investment with great care and as much individual attention as possible. Our catering coordinator, Melinda Springer, works closely with clients throughout the planning process and brings years of event coordination experience to each special event. We have a great relationship with many venues throughout the Columbia Gorge, and can recommend places based on your site requirements.
