We went to Mayrose and had a wonderful experience! Located inside the Duniway Hotel in Downtown Portland, the ambience is stylish and inviting, and the service was friendly throughout. I ordered the Cheese Tortellini pasta and french fries, and both were really good. The tortellini was flavorful and well-cooked, with basil‑hazelnut pesto cream, fennel, blistered tomatoes, arugula, and Parmesan, and the chips were perfectly crisp and seasoned.
The rest of the menu looked interesting as well, and the overall presentation and vibe made the meal enjoyable. Prices felt reasonable for the setting, and it’s a great spot for a celebration.

My dinner at Mayrose (The Duniway Hotel) was shockingly disappointing and defined by basic kitchen failures. 1. Hummus Board ($16): The grilled naan served initially was visibly burnt black. 2. Moroccan Lamb Shank ($37): The lamb was served ICE COLD in the center—an inexcusable food safety and preparation failure. Our server was attentive, immediately offering a replacement shank and a complimentary dessert. While the service recovery was appreciated, the core problem remains: two premium-priced dishes left a 4-star hotel kitchen with fundamental, obvious flaws. Apologies don't excuse a complete breakdown in quality control. The prices demand perfection; Mayrose delivered incompetence. Avoid.

We stayed at the hotel and went to the restaurant in two occasions. First day, I waited 30min for a cup of yogurt with fruit. The second day, I waited 50min for breakfast. Also, I ordered The Empress mocktail which was straight up just lemon juice and undrinkable.

I have to imagine everyone eating breakfast here has food/bev credit to spend. Everything is overpriced and service is underwhelming. The drip coffee is weak and my small mug was only refilled twice, despite the hour we were there twiddling our thumbs. The omelette with Dungeness crab for $25 has a sprinkle of crab inside at best. I got about two bites with crab. No side, only weirdly crushed up potatoes chips on top. Chicken and waffle was good but also not worth the price. Our second mimosa came out after the check arrived. Overall disappointing experience.

Food choices were diverse for their Thanksgiving menu. Food was delicious - included salad or bisque, entre, dessert. Nice ambiance. Enjoyed it very much. Staff were friendly and professional.

The service was pretty good, the vibe was a bit too busy / cafeteria feel. The food I would give a C overall. The quality of the meat is what brings down the overall score the loin was very tough and chewy and lots of gristle. The flavor was great, as was the sides were delicious. The salad was ok again you can taste the savings and it takes much cheaper than the price point.

The service was horrible. The food was at good price valve but nothing to write home about. We probably won't return.

Our food was served cold, like it had been sitting out for a while, and our servers forgot to bring silverware several times. When we reminded one server that we needed spoons to eat our soup, he brought back these tiny little dessert spoons.

Our 2 day stay in Portland was pleasantly elevated because of Jeff who made us the best Latte and Mocha we’ve had since arriving in the States (30+ coffees). Jeff made us feel welcomed, if I lived in Portland, this place would be my daily coffee spot.

Mayrose Review
Mayrose is a casual eatery known for its Middle Eastern and Mediterranean-inspired menu. The dishes are fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned, with highlights like grilled kebabs, hummus, and falafel. Portions are generous and the prices reasonable. The atmosphere is simple and welcoming, making it a good spot for a quick, satisfying meal. Service is friendly and efficient. Overall, Mayrose offers tasty, authentic flavors in a relaxed setting.
I've been here twice, love the food every time. Salmon is my favorite, scallop is a surprisingly good!

The food was not worth the cost. It is a nice and comfortable restaurant with good service but we were disappointed with the food.

We had the three course special. I had the chicken confit , and my husband had the artichoke paella. It is painfully obvious that there is not a chef, but a short order to cook in the back and that these are premade and extremely over salted. It was very convenient for us to go to the theater afterwards, but we would definitely not eat there again .

The food is just not good and way too expensive. Reflects poorly on the hotel.
