Stone Cliff Inn

What Stone Cliff Inn does

Stone Cliff Inn is a privately held, single-location Pacific Northwest restaurant located at 17900 South Clackamas River Drive, Oregon City, OR. Founded by Mike Rosenbaum, son of local logger Lloyd Rosenbaum, the restaurant is built on a former 1850s quarry site and incorporates original quarry rock in its driveway, basalt rock remnants in its foundation, and Douglas Fir logs in its structure, deliberately honoring the quarrying and logging heritage of the Carver community (formerly called Stone until 1917). The restaurant operates lunch from 11am to 2pm and dinner from 4pm to 8pm (Sunday-Thursday) and 4pm to 9pm (Friday-Saturday), with a daily closure between 2pm and 4pm, and offers a $39 First Seating 3-course menu from 4pm to 4:30pm.

The core product is a full-service fine-dining experience featuring seasonal, made-from-scratch Pacific Northwest cuisine paired with a Wine Spectator-recognized wine program, craft cocktails, local brews, and a kids menu. Secondary revenue streams include private dining and event hosting (accessed via the Perfect Venue platform) and gift card sales (via cardfoundry.com). Pricing is per-cover with publicly disclosed menu PDFs and a stated $39 entry-tier prix fixe. Distribution is exclusively on-premise at the single Oregon City location, with reservations handled through Resy and direct phone contact. The business employs approximately 20 people and operates as a founder/family-owned independent establishment with no disclosed institutional investment, no parent company, and no subsidiaries.

The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, relying on the unique scenic destination setting, earned media through Wine Spectator recognition (Award of Excellence 2014-2015; Best of Best Award of Excellence 2016-2018), the Resy reservation channel, and word-of-mouth among Pacific Northwest diners. There is no proprietary technology platform, no AI/ML capability, and no disclosed digital or delivery offering beyond the static website and third-party reservation and gift card integrations.
