Altitude

Mt. Hood Restaurants

Altitude is the latest and greatest restaurant concept to arrive on the Mt. Hood dining scene in quite a while. And certain to be near or at the top of everyone’s dining wish list.

With aspirations of five-star “to dine for” restaurant status, Altitude offers an unregimented, non-stuffy upscale casual dining experience where diners feel not only welcome but actually at home in comfortable surroundings. And where the food speaks for itself, an intelligent selection of wines finds its own voice.

Located at The Resort at The Mountain (Mt. Hood. Naturally.), Altitude is a favorite for a broad range of area diners and resort guests, as well as those making the less-than-one-hour drive from Portland. Not "just" a hotel restaurant, Altitude is a popular upscale dining option among culinary aficionados. And one of the top restaurants in all of Oregon.

So many aspects make Altitude special. There’s the food, of course! Chef Paul Bosch and his culinary team seem to magically transform traditional menu items, making them new and fresh with a focus on flavors and textures.

Altitude's menu items are prepared with great care, using the very best and freshest products and ingredients – many of which are locally and/or organically grown. Re-texturing “ordinary” foods and making them truly extraordinary is among the culinary team’s major focus, as are using avant-garde preparation techniques resulting in yummy and unique foams, gelees, and frozen vinaigrettes. Plus fruit puree lollipops and delectable granites.

Menu offerings appeal equally to either a vegetarian or a carnivore! Item presentations are thoughtfully conceived and carefully crafted. And the Altitude bar menu showcases smaller portions of dinner items.

Altitude is an ideal choice for a romantic evening with a special someone. Or make Altitude your place to gather, relax and unwind with friends and family. It is a well-deserved treat any night of the week.

And if it’s just a beverage you seek, Altitude offers delightfully diverse and creative options – some of the finest available among all Mt. Hood restaurants. Featured daily are bar drinks made with fresh fruit ingredients, juices, and garnishes. Regional and international cocktail offerings are also available as are the more contemporary and trendy.

As many as 100 wine varietals many from the Willamette Valley and more from other notable domestic regions as well as around the world, are featured on Altitude’s wine list. There are many exceptional choices to enhance each and every flavorful item on the menu.

Service, naturally, is a key ingredient and another reason why Altitude is Mt. Hood’s new #1 must-experience restaurant. Each server will guide the diners through the review and selection process and remain seamlessly with them until their total molecular gastronomically delightful experience is concluded!

And as for the food, well . . . Executive Chef Paul M. Bosch remains true to basic culinary principles yet pursues out-of-the-box techniques, presentations and flavor sensations. Paul is especially passionate about and takes great pride in the restaurant’s extensive use of local Oregonian bounty. Literally taken from The Resort’s backyard are some “best you can get” produce such as mushrooms, huckleberries, stone fruits (including peaches, cherries, apples), and hazelnuts. Caught right out of the Columbia River one day and served fresh the same day or next are steelhead, coho and sturgeon. And the cows who ultimately become Altitude’s country-natural beef graze on land in nearby Sisters, OR. Yes, “locavores” will love the bounty showcased at Altitude!
