What People Are Saying About Stanich's

The Editor

Contributor

Citysearch

In Short – Wood-paneled walls are plastered with sports banners, many fading and worn, from every college and pro sports team imaginable. The well-worn booths and Formica tables have been visited over and over by loyal patrons for 50 years and counting. The World's Greatest Hamburger is legendary in these parts, piled with cheese, ham, bacon, fried egg, tomato, lettuce, pickles, onions and special sauce--mustard, mayo and relish. The fries are thick, hand-cut and fried.

by tim wilson at Citysearch

Lots of people complain....most of them live in Beaverton area, have 2.2 kids and an awesome golden lab. If you want a great hamburger come on down. If you expect Red Robin don't show up.

  • Pros: Best Burger in the state
  • Cons: cant go back enough

FILTHY FILTHY FILTHY

by jBlakeley at Citysearch

This is a first. The gross and filthy conditions of this restaurant so discussed me that I registered with Citysearch so I could write this review.

First, we weren't even sure if they were open. The neon sign in front said "open" but the sign displayed in the window facing the parking lot said "CLOSED". Unfortunately for us they were open. We walked in and waited (as the sign instructed) to be seated. After about 5 minutes someone from behind the bar told us to find our own table. We sat down at one and I reached for a menu. It was sticky! I set it down and noticed that the table had something smeared across it. Gross!!! We decided to change tables. As I was replacing the menu I moved the salt shaker and found that it was coved with what appeared to be old, jelled (it had been there long enough to have turned clear) mayonnaise. We moved to another table but it was almost as dirty as the first. Three more tables and not one of them were clean, although you could tell that an attempt had been made to wipe them down. The place was dimly lit but even my 50 year old eyes scanning the place could see that this was not a place where I wanted to eat. Although sight, or the lack of, would not be needed to realize the filthy conditions we had just walked into. Even a blind man would know that there's a problem when his arms stuck to the table. I can only imagine what the sanitary conditions in the kitchen were like. Problems like these are not only because of the wait staff. They occur because of extremely poor or lazy management, who have little to no regard for the cleanliness of there business. After leaving, I drove directly to a service station where I could wash my hands. Yes, thats correct, the restroom of a service station. There have been very few places that I would not give a second chance to, but this one has made the list! BEWARE!!!

  • Pros: A great place if you enjoy eating in FILTH
  • Cons: Poor service and filthy conditions
