    My nephew, mom and I are burger connoisseurs!
    Kandace A.

    My nephew, mom and I are burger connoisseurs! We really enjoyed the burger quality and ease of ordering practically any way you'd like! "Your burger your world" if you will? Lol Everyone was pleasantly surprised and would highly recommend! Yippe!

    Falafel Wrap (Vegan)
    alexis h.

    Came back again, this time the food was a bit better. The restaurant was still very dirty with food under multiple tables and tables with dishes left for long periods of time, we had to hunt for a table that was actually wiped. Counter service and the person in the dining room was excellent. Friendly and attentive. This time the sweet potato fries were indeed well done! I ordered a falafel wrap- decent flavor, half of the wrap was lettuce unlike the picture. I would order this again. My husband had the jalapeno bacon burger. He was satisfied with everything but the cold bun (maybe its supposed to come this way?). We'll be back again and bus our own dishes to not contribute to the problem.

    Kids teriyaki chicken!! The red rice is amazing!!!

    I'd love to review in this place first open, we have been back multiple times. There hasn't been a thing yet that I haven't liked. This time around I tried the side salad regular and the chips and guacamole. Both were absolutely amazing.. You can't beat the side salad, literally it could be all you would need for lunch. So fresh!! I absolutely loved the chips and guacamole, especially with the chips that they serve it with, it was a surprise when it was delivered to the table and I love them. The inside is super cute. Has all the TVs going with sports and staff has always been super friendly. It's becoming a local hangout and I love it.

    This is the ABC Burger and it was great.

    I've had about three different burgers here and they all have been great. The pickles they give you are great and with one or all the dips they have just makes it that much better. They have a good selection of beers on tap too. Service is alway good everyone is nice and will ask how to prepare the burgers and give suggestions. The one I go to is in Santee across from another burger place that everyone knows and love. There are plenty of booths, seating outside, and a bunch of high top tables so even at the busiest of times there is always somewhere to sit.

    Onion rings

    Food was excellent! I ordered thr Thai Red Curry Burger. Very unique. The fried onions and the fresh basil were a win for me but it could have used more red curry sauce. Husband got their egg burger. We also ordered onion rings and chips. Both were good. Chips were better than the onion rings. Onion rings could have had a bit more seasoning and crisp. All of the sauces were tasty. Ranch, jalapeno, and the sweet chili. Service was thorough and prompt. Mike was a great help!

    5/2/2026 - I arrived with my fam around 5:30pm. This place was packed. Glad to see. A line outside the door. We ordered 2 BBQ Brisket Sandwiches, a regular stand fry to share and our daughter ordered an ABC burger. The line was quick. Only about 10 minutes and about 10 minutes the burger is out and about 2-3 minutes later the rest of the food is out. Everything was cooked to order, fresh, well presented and the atmosphere was great. First time I've seen a lot of families here enjoying everything. Also, the pickles hidden at the cashier counter is fantastic! We grabbed 2 each. We will all come back here. This establishment has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The employees are very friendly and with smiles. I love how clean it is inside as well. Check out the photos. 5 Stars! Come and enjoy this hidden gem.

    Salmon burger
    Alyson C.

    This burger was amazing. I got it to go, but it was still soo hott and delicious when I got home!! The salmon was cooked perfectly and the sauces were amazing. I will definitely be getting this again!! The staff was also so very nice!

    Menu board at register

    The Stand opened in Santee and had heard good things about it, so I had to try it! Came out in a Saturday night, they were busy but no problem getting a table. They have lots of seating inside & on their patio. Joined some friends for dinner. I tried the jalapeño burger with bacon & the fire fries. The fire fries were actually pretty spicy hot. When my food came out the fries were on the warm side, but my burger was good. Not the kind of jalapeños I was expecting. I thought they would be jalapeños rings but they were strips that they grill. The onion rings were delicious. Service was really good. You order at the register and they bring out your food. Great place to watch the game & bring your kids. Pretty casual dining. Nice addition to Santee dining. I'll be back.

    Always love this place! Wanted to add some more cool pictures! Their food here is so good! And we love the service! Thank you all at The Stand! Cheers!

    We were gifted a $50 gift card for The Stand, so we decided to give them another try as our first visit ended with us not staying. We walked in on a Saturday afternoon. The place was relatively busy. We found two seats at one of the communal high-top tables. Once we secured our seats, I went to the counter to order. The Stand is an order at the counter; your food will be brought to you type of place. I asked Michael (same guy who took my order) if one of the TVs could be switched from high school basketball to a marquee college football game. He was happy to oblige; my game was on within minutes. We decided to split the Jalapeño Bacon Burger (beef patty, American cheese, pepper jack cheese, grilled onions, bacon, roasted jalapeño, pickled jalapeño, crispy onion strings, jalapeño scallion aioli, on a brioche bun) ordered medium rare. We also ordered a side of fries well done with ranch for dipping, a seltzer and a beer. I paid with the digital gift card on my phone. Michael at the register poured the beverages and handed them to me with a number to place on the table. Friendly service. A little less than 10 minutes later our food was delivered. The burger was split in half for us and was cooked perfectly. The fries came in a separate little tray. They were well done and piping hot. The burger was really good. It was deliciously spicy. The roasted jalapeño was a great addition. The fries were excellent, as was the ranch. The portions seemed a bit small for the price. $13.50 for the burger, $3.75 to add the small container of fries. Beer and seltzer $8 each. Our total was $35.83, and honestly, I could've crushed the burger on my own. It was a tad small to split. The restaurant is definitely geared more towards a family restaurant than bar and grill. Which is great for most, but not our preference. We are bar sitters, and The Stand has no bar. Aside from your food being delivered, there is no table service. If you want another beer, you have to get up and get in line again. They do have a dedicated line for to-go orders and beer, but still a pain. Sodas are self-refill as well. While The Stand is great for others, we didn't really see ourselves returning anytime soon. I went to the line and gave the $14.71 remaining on the gift card to the next person in line.

    Cucumber Mint Agua Fresca was delicious and not overly sweet
    Jasmine P.

    Had The Stand Burger, onion rings, and sweet potato fries. All was good as expected. Everything seemed to be ordered a la carte which can make things add up quickly. We were meeting up with family members and just wanted a place to enjoy food and hang for a little. The Stand was great for that and provided ample seating. Food was ok and seemed a little expensive for the quality and amount received. The service was great! Since it was our first time there, the staff helped us by offering physical menus instead of having to read off the board above. They were helpful in answering our questions about the menu items. After we ordered, we waited at our table and our food was brought out to us. They also offer free dill pickles which is a great perk we certainly enjoyed. After eating, leave your plates and the staff is responsible for bussing the tables as many signs around indicated to us. Our group consisted of 5 adults and 1 toddler. We sat comfortably and were able to enjoy our food so I would say this place is good for small groups. Parking was easy on a Saturday night. Bathroom was decently clean but make sure to ask the cashier for the code before you head back there.

    Stand Burger
    Ed M.

    The burger here was great. I ordered a stand burger with fries and a root beer float. They had other options like wraps, bowls, and salads. The place was busy on a Saturday and had multiple parties going (especially with softball teams). One order of fries was forgotten somewhere in our order but they got it out quickly after asking.

    You just can't beat an ice bath filled with pickles! You'll understand when you arrive. Big menu with lots of options. You order at the front. They give you a number. Then someone delivers to your table. Great for all ages and parties. They have alcohol beverage options. I was very happy with my order- chicken club onion rings. My husband got the jalapeño bacon burger. He wasn't a fan of the "krafts" cheese, but enjoyed everything else. We got free fries because we downloaded the app. The value seemed reasonable too. I really enjoyed it!

    There are two places up in Orange County/LA area that are called Salt Creek Grill and Stone Fire Grill, is this place similar to those? (For those that know)

    Was gonna visit there with a few co-worker for a meeting. Do you have WIFI?

    Yes.

    Do they have table service?

    No. If you want to order you have to go to the counter. They will bring your order to you, but there is no table service. They bus the tables clean, but it gets VERY CUTTHROAT when it's crowded; people will grab tables before ordering.

    Wow! Their menu instantly reminded me of Cheesecake Factory's menu...extensive. But honestly,…read morethat's not a bad thing because there are plenty of options. They have everything from hot sandwiches and cold sandwiches to salads, wraps, and even breakfast items. You can order at the counter or on the kiosk. I ordered on the kiosk. Simple and quick. I ordered the wild-caught salmon sandwich with salmon, arugula, and garlic aioli. The salmon was cooked perfectly. They were a little skimpy on the aioli, so the sandwich was kind of dry, but it was still good. I also got a side of fries, and those shoestring fries were nice and crispy. Prices are reasonable, and there's seating both inside and outside. Shout out to Crystal. I don't know if she's the manager, but she definitely cares about quality customer service. Someone ordered the Green Beret sandwich, and it was brought out on toasted bread when apparently it wasn't supposed to be. She immediately went to the counter and let the cooks know about it. She meant business, and I liked that.

I love the concept--pizza on one side, incredible sandwiches and gelato on the other, all connected to a fully stocked Italian market. It's the kind of place where you can grab lunch, dessert, and authentic Italian groceries all in one stop. The staff was welcoming and friendly from the moment we walked in, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. The Meatball Sandwich is an absolute must-try packed with flavor and perfectly made. The Signature Sandwich was another standout because it's something different from your typical Italian sandwich. It had its own unique flavor that really sets it apart. I didn't get a chance to try the pizza this visit, but if the sandwiches are any indication, I already know I'll be back for it soon. The only small downside is that the parking lot is a little tight, especially during busy hours, but it's well worth the minor inconvenience. Overall, this place exceeded my expectations. Great food, friendly service, fair prices, and a unique setup that makes you want to keep coming back. This has definitely earned a spot on my regular rotation. Highly recommend!
