Staff Favorites: What We’re Loving at Stanford’s

Our teams know great food—and they’ve got the cravings to prove it. We asked our team members at our Stanford’s locations in Clackamas, Northgate, and Tanasbourne for their favorite eats and top recommendations. From bold pastas to fresh seafood and crisp seasonal salads, there’s something for every appetite, coming to you straight from the team that serves it! 

 Name: Greg 

Position: Manager  

Location: Stanford’s Clackamas 

Dish: Cajun Prawn Linguine
“I love to suggest one of my favorites—the Cajun Prawn Linguine. It has a delicious, creamy texture with the perfect amount of heat. The combination of prawns and andouille is perfect. Sometimes I like to even add some blackened chicken for a little something extra.”
 

Name: Courtney 

Position: Server / Cocktailer 

Location: Stanford’s Clackamas 

Dish: Salmon, Halibut or Steelhead
“I suggest all of our fresh catch items. They are always cooked perfect—moist but flaky. The lime basmati rice is SO good with the crispy asparagus. I recommend any blackened with the Cajun cream sauce.”

Position: Server 

Location: Stanford’s Tanasbourne 

Dish: Crispy Brussels Sprouts
“The brussels sprouts—they’re perfectly crispy, the seasoning is so flavorful, and it feels light for a fried food. The sauces are great too!”

Position: Server 

Location: Stanford’s Northgate 

Dish: Blue Cheese Cobb Salad
“I love many items on our menu—but when it’s summertime, my one-stop-shop favorite meal on hot days is our Blue Cheese Cobb Salad. I can keep it simple with the creamy blue cheese dressing and traditional toppings, or spice it up with steelhead or steak. Always a winner!”

Dish: Steakhouse Prime Dip
“My favorite menu item is the Steakhouse Prime Dip. The combination of flavors sets up for a very hearty meal. Along with a side of fries, it makes the possibility of leftovers.”
