Stanich's

We are trying to find Portland's best burger so we decided to try Stanich's. I'm a small eater so we decided to share the "special Burger."....The burger was good but the fries were a little on the greasy side.

When we were checking out the bill for the burger was $9.00 instead of the posted price of $6.50

The RUDE waitress said it's $4.50 for each half. OMFG when did it start costing customers 2.50 to cut a burger in half?????

We will never go back and keep hunting for the best Portland burger.  View Less … View More

TERRIBLE Service, Burgers good. I brought visiting family to this spot for dinner Saturday night. Sadly we were totally disappointed. First of all they took a while to get to serving us. Then the big blonde lady who did serve us was cold and short. There was no polite conversation just took our order. Then we had to wait over an half hour for our burgers. Not only that, the table that was seated after us finished their meal before we got ours. Then they were less than accommodating for the mishap. In fact the only consolation was that the burgers would be only another 4 minutes. But they took longer. They were only getting on the grill once we finally said something. Apparently they forgot about us. And when they finally did arrive she wasn't exactly apologetic for the inconvenience. In fact she was so ready to have us out of there, she barely stayed long enough to tell us where to pay when we got our check.

I wonder if we did something to set her off, and we might have with the three elders' minor extra needs, but certainly it was not intentional and every good server would know that.

I was totally embarrassed for bringing my family there only to be treated so rude in my city. I will never go there again, even if they do make a good burger. They had ruined the whole experience by that point and it was hard to truly enjoy it.  View Less … View More

A welcome step back in time. We were treated like family here. We have a few more kids than average and it just isn't easy to go to restaurants in Portland without whispers, stares and eye rolls. Not only were we warmly welcomed, but the server was patient, friendly and funny. The kids occupied themselves by reading all the sports pennants on the walls. Burger was a tasty stack of toasted bun, savory sauce, sirloin, onions, pickles, tomatoes. And yes we used several napkins. Overall I felt well-taken care of, like I had visited an unpretentious friend who just wanted me to be happy. I can see why this place has been here so long.

Would love it if they had another kid choice like chicken. But we'll be back regardless.  View Less … View More

If this is Portland's best burger, we're all in trouble.. I had been told by a few people that this was 'Portland's best burger'. When we tried it, it was a big disappointment. Greasy barely cooked meat, crumbly dry bun (I was almost glad when it fell apart, because now I didn't have to eat it), and slimy lettuce that tasted like cigarettes. The fries were cooked at too low a temperature, ensuring that they'd be greasy and limp. Even the sodas tasted funny (like un-rinsed dish soap).

I usually don't leave food on my plate, but at Stanich's I did.  View Less … View More
