Consulate vs Embassy

Consulates are local offices that are led by a Consul General. They provide services for their own citizens living in or visiting the U.S. as well as services for U.S. citizens.

Embassies are located in Washington, D.C. There is only one embassy per country in the U.S. and each are led by their country's Ambassador. 311 does not provide information about Embassies.
