Visit July 2026 On road trip passing through Santa Clarita. Hungry. The Stand is close by? Automatic! Love their salad creations! Daughter got the Kale Quinoa Crunch Salad which is a family fave. Since she got that one, I'm a little peculiar about ordering the same thing lol, I tried the Chimichurri Steak Salad. Fresh greens, kale, mint, and cucumbers. The first bite brings the word "refreshing" to mind. The steak was tender and flavorful. Darn right we got the sweet potato fries! Service is always friendly. Place order at the counter and they deliver to table. This location seemed bright and spacious. World Cup was on so it was a bit busy with multiple TV's. The Stand is always great. read more

It was a really good visit today! Milagros took our order at the register and delivered it to our table. She was engaging, friendly and knowledgeable. Our booth/seating was clean. Everything was prepared well -- no complaints! read more

After I reported the issue, the restaurant reached out promptly, apologized and took responsibility for the mistake. They addressed my concerns and offered compensation for the inconvenience. Though I was disappointed before, I appreciate the team for the way they handled the situation. Thank you ! read more

This place was a huge surprise. Usually we try to eat at local businesses, but the combination of the reviews and our cravings got the better of us. So we settled for this American Burger chain. Pretty big store that felt modern and welcoming. The layout was great and we didn't feel lost at all from start to finish. We were in town because of a friend's play, and it was nice that it was right next door too. I got the Onion Stack Burger. The patty was well seasoned and the crispy onion strings gave it a wonderfully textured bite. Hickory sauce was tasty and the fries were crispy and well seasoned. I asked for ketchup on the side and I don't know why but cold, refrigerated ketchup always taste the best. I had to drop a star because the service was lacking a little. The worker was nice and responsive but we had to wait quite a bit as I think he was talking to a friend when we got there. He noticed we were in line but they were just having a conversation unrelated to the burger joint. She left the spot after 5-ish minutes and we were greeted pretty carefree following that. He also forgot to give us our number which we had to go back for. Anyhow, the food was great, and the ambiance was great. I'd definitely recommend a try if you can't think of what to eat while shopping/waiting at the mall. read more

An updated review on one of my family's favorite spot to eat. Yes, I am a fan. My favorite burger to get here is the French soup burger. AMAZING BURGER! Cooked to perfection, stacked but wrapped well enough for an easy eating experience (I lie. I still ask for a fork and knife.) I would like to say I would try the rest of the menu but the dozen times I have come here, I order the same burger. Now the sides have varied. I tend to share the fries with others as they are served generously. Crispy and seasoned, these are great fries. Our current favorite is the roasted brocollini. It is citrusy, bright and light and it goes perfectly well with the burger. And I love the complimentary pickle chips! Service is great. You order at the counter and they take the food to your table. Ample seating but inside and out. Valencia can get hot but there are more perfect sunny days/afternoons so outside eating to me is a must. Great burger joint that I will be happy to return to! read more

It gets an extra star because you are literally in a food desert in Santa Clarita! I always go for the brisket sandwich on pretzel bread. My brother loves the French onion soup burger and the sugary vanilla cream ale nitro beer. The salmon burger is solid, too. They have a large menu and do everything well. The best part about the Santa Clarita location is the outdoor playground within walking distance, perfect for letting hungry kiddos burn off energy while you wait for your order. read more

It was my first time at this location and I was very impressed! The long line moved pretty fast and there was plenty of seating! The service was fast and friendly. The Coke Zero went out on the soda machine which was a bummer but the food was great. They are located by the giant mall so parking wasn't great but we found a spot. If I'm in the area I will definitely be back! read more

Came to have lunch and I'm so glad to have this new place at the mall. I like their option and healthier choices. I really like how they give you sauce on the side instead of having the bottles of sauce out. It's very clean and tables are spaced out enough for easy moving. Service was very friendly and helpful with suggestions. read more

The Stand serves up some comfort food, nostalgic of a good ol' burger, shake, and fries but with modern offerings for the health conscious eaters as well. There's something for the whole family. Sides 5/5* All the sides were delicious - Mac n Cheese with its cavatappi noodles, crispy Stand Fries, Fire Fries with a spicy kick, and unlimited complimentary pickles. Short Rib Gilled Cheese 5/5* SO delicious! Cheddar cheese grilled into the bread until crispy on the outside, gooey and melty inside, paired with savory shredded short rib. It came with ranch sauce but was so good on its own, it didn't need extra sauce. French Onion Soup Burger 2.5/5* Just ok in my opinion. The burger overall and patty didn't have much flavor, even though the patty was cooked perfectly medium rare. The side of french onion au jus was too salty. It was missing some veggies to balance everything out. I probably wouldn't get this burger again, but would try one of their more balanced options. Puri Puri Chicken Bowl 4/5* Looked great on the menu screen and was a new item, but didn't really look like the picture when brought out. It's a healthier option and was refreshing. The red sauce is pretty spicy if you don't do heat well. It might be the same sauce used on the Fire Fries. Customer Service (for the cashier) 5/5* The cashier, Christian, provided top notch customer service. He walked us through downloading The Stand app, apply our coupon, and was so patient, assuring us we had nothing to worry about when we said we didn't want to hold up the line. The servers though, were just doing just that, without anything extra. One of the servers even messed up our order and we were missing an extra side of fries, which we had to get directly from the kitchen. The kitchen, though, is extremely slow. Be prepared to wait 20-30 mins for your food. The ambiance is real casual. You order first, and the servers bring out your food and clean up afterwards. They seemed short staffed at the time so a lot of tables were still full of trays. There's a ton of TVs that were playing the game at the time, so good spot to watch the game without the crazy crowds. read more

We've now tried this place a few times, and this will be our last. We arrived at 8:30 PM after watching Game 1 of the NBA Finals. I was craving a milkshake, and well, that was the only thing that was right. It took well over 20 minutes to get a dry, cold kid's burger that was dried out and had no onions as ordered, as well as a hot dog and some onion rings. It looked like we were an inconvenience to the workers there rather than paying customers. My wife had to go up and ask for our food after 20 minutes, which seemed to be just sitting behind the counter, wasting away. They claimed the hot dog bun broke. Really? A 20-minute wait for all this in a near-empty restaurant? This is the second horrible experience we've had there, and dare I say it, our last. read more

Actually sat inside this time and it was just as good as always! Quite busy inside, but lots of seating! Had to add some new pictures! Previous review holds up! Annnnd Another one! read more

Not really sure why this place gets nearly 5 stars. I literally can in here biased on the positive reviews and was severely let down. The menu looks good and I really enjoy burger places so why not here ? I orders The Stand Burger for myself and others in our group ordered the same along with a Turkey Burger. Also got me a Cookies n Cream Shake and a "large" fries. I was asked by the cashier how I like the burgers cooked and I said well - no pink. The food was brought to our table and I was excited to try this out. The drippy burger tasted fine at first but after taking a look inside I saw it was completely pink thru out. I checked with my other peeps at the table and they had pink pattys too. Ugh. Why ask how I want it cooked if you aren't going to even come close. Also I ordered the "large" fries because it was basically double the price of a regular so I would split it at the table. Well let me tell you, my large looked just as small as the regulars others got in my group. My photos back this up. So now I really feel like I'm just getting poor service here and ripped off. We were really hungry so we ate what we could and wanted to just get thru the meal. The Cookies n Cream shake was the only thing they seemed to get right during my experience. Service was not great, While I was telling my order to the cashier another worker just walked over and interrupted us and then the girl taking my order just walked away. The guy taking orders on the next register then began helping the customer behind me. Like what the heck. Am I invisible. My cashier cam back and was like ok what did you want ?? Wild I tell you. With sooooo many burger places in SCV I will gladly go elsewhere for a good properly made burger. Heck some places give you unlimited fries and everything instead of charging double for a regular size side order here. read more

The place was not crowded at all. Meal took over 15 minutes for two Stand burgers with sides. Both came out cold. I ordered Meyer lemon broccolini and instead received baby broccoli with a lemon wedge. Extremely disappointing. Will not be back. This was my second visit. The first was not much better. read more

Tried the chimichurri steak salad for the first time and it did not disappoint. The right portion with just the right amount of steak. Service was great and the inside was well cleaned. Also tried the falafel wrap and it was surprisingly good. Came on a Saturday for lunch and it wasn't too packed. Plenty of indoor seating. This location also has a large parking lot with plenty of parking. read more

I stand with the Stand. This place is the spot for a tasty burger. I love the jalapeño bacon burger. It has a great kick and is so flavorful. We love it here because my wife and daughters have food allergies, and they are allergy friendly. Anytime we're in the area, we make sure to stop here. The onion rings are nice and crispy with lots of flavor. There's plenty of seating. It's a vibe. read more

Still five star food and service. Great marketing as they sent an email out about buy one get 1/2 off for Mother's Day so who could pass up a great French onion burger for Mother's Day? So easy to order on their app and the to-go service is accurate and always hot. By the way, I love their pickles. Don't forget to pick some up near the register. They also have very yummy chocolate chip cookies and brownies for a special treat. Someday I'll try their shakes. read more

Took my kids to Billy Beez and after running around and sliding, they got hungry, so it was time to find something to eat! Of course, I checked Yelp for a good place to eat around and I found this place! It was pretty busy, but only a couple of people were ahead of me waiting in line. Their menu consisted of hamburgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, fries, milkshakes, and salads. Everything sounded so good, I had wanted it all! I ended up ordering a Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. The sandwich comes with marinated grilled chicken, fire sauce, stand slaw, ranch, stand chips, and a gourmet brioche bun! I opted for a gluten-free bun! It was so amazingly good! The spicy sauce was so tangy and had the perfect amount of spice. The stand chips added a tasty and crunchy texture! The fries were also really good! I can't wait to try more of their menu! read more

Management made good on my poor food review by refunding the cost of our order, much appreciated.

Came here for an early dinner on a Sunday during are mini roadtrip back home. I had seen the chain of restaurant in the past and have been meaning to try out the food. Food looked really good on the reviews and they had over a 4.0 on stars. There was no wait line and the restaurant was empty so plenty of space to dine in as we did. Ordering was quick, but when we went to choose for a spot to sit at, which a booth would have been preferable.... We did not have that option. Every table booth was not clean! Leftover trays and un-sanitized tables. We couldn't even find a napkin dispenser to clean the table ourselves. We had just grabbed leftover clean napkins left from a guest at a previous booth. We waited about 10 minutes for our food order, but the food was delicious just as expected from the reviews. I tried out the BBQ Brisket Sandwich, no modifications. At first I was kind of iffy of the pepperonis but gave them a try and it was not a disappointment. The brisket in the sandwich was tender and not whatsoever chewy or tough to bite. BBQ sauce was on point just the right consistency with the coleslaw in the sandwich. My husband agreed his Ultimate Egg Burger was good just a tad to much of the Aioli sauce since it empower the meat patty flavor, he just likes his red meat flavor. Our fries and onion rings were perfectly fried nice and crips no sogginess or floppy fries. I do want to advised everyone that there are no options of combination meals orders. Everything from sides to drinks are sold separately from sandwiches/burgers. Place is fairly small and very limited on tables of 6 guests. I would have given this place a 5 star if it wasn't for all the leftover trays on empty tables/booth tables there was even dirty tables visibly on their outside patio. The person that brought our food order to our table was friendly & welcoming, however the clerk that took our order seemed checked out mentally for the day her emotions seem tired of being at work as she waved down her friend at a table for the for the time of day in the clock and her friend mention "ten more minutes" as the clerk replied back to her with a thumbs down and tired face. read more

Generally I prefer to support independent restaurants than chain restaurants but the stand - across any of the locations I've been to - has always had great service and similar quality of food. The store itself has a bit of a modern burger joint vibe that is pretty nifty. All of their options are great but my favorites are their blue burger (rip, you can order it still though) and their fire fries (spicy). read more

I come to on a regular basis, the food is always consistent. Today my sweet potato fries was nothing but the bottom of the bag crumbles. Employees please understand that we are paying money to eat here. If the bag of potatoes is over toss it and open a new bag. Location is good and convenient. read more

The stand is serviceable but really nothing too exciting. It is quite expensive unless you use the app which helps some. It is good, not great. The restaurant is clean and the service was good. It is located at the mall so parking depends on the business of the mall. The food is okay but didn't really have much flavor and seemed undersized for the price. Others I know love it! So try for yourself! read more

I'm up throwing up tonight from what I believe is the food I ate at this location earlier today. The staff behind the counter was also killing constant flying bugs with a handheld tennis racket type of bug zapper while we ate. Constant. Zapping. Of. Flying. Bugs. Behind. The. Counter. Food. Area. While we ate in a booth. Zap. Zap. Zap. Zap. Zap. I have never experienced this. Where do those dying bugs land behind the counter once shattered with your zapper. My daughter has had a stomach ache since we left. This is the grossest place I've ever been. We tried. I don't know why. We tried. And paying the price. read more

The Stand is always a fantastic burger place to go to. I always go for their Ultimate Egg Burger, cooked Medium, no bacon, add extra red pickled onions. This location is nice and spaced out, lots of seating inside and they have a nice outside patio area as well. Can never go wrong with the food here! We were in the area doing some shopping so we decided to grab lunch at this location. We almost always go for the sweet chili aioli and stand burger sauce for our fries but this time we tried their jalapeno aioli and it was FANTASTIC. It went perfectly mixed with their stand burger sauce! Highly recommend if you want a slight kick. The food always comes out super quick and cooked to perfection and I love how friendly the staff are. Always a great time! IG: @ammysalamii read more

Wow! I just ordered the Chimichuri steak salad, green beans with a red ginger vinegarette, (with fried onions) and The Stand's chili. All are amazing. I will admit, I don't like cheese with meat, so that's on me for not taking it off, otherwise, the chili is really good! However, the Chimichuri steak salad with corn salsa is out of this world. Authentic Chimichuri, (which you just don't get anymore) and steak cooked to perfection. (I had this delivered from Valencia to the deep hell of Canyon Country.) Amazing! The green beans are so, so good. They don't even need the fried onions, but definitely a good balance. I ordered from Door Dash and the items say "temporary". They should really keep this going. It's all so delicious and I can't wait to tell my friends. read more

This was our first visit to The Stand and it did not disappoint. We ordered custom burgers, Brisket Sandwich, Short Rib Grilled Cheese and two kids meals. All of the food was very flavorful and seemed to be made of high quality ingredients. If we had to pick, our favorite single item was the Brisket Sandwich; super flavorful and great texture. You have the choice of unlimited sauces for free as well which is a nice touch. All of them were good. The service was very friendly and the employees exceeded our needs and expectations. The restaurant was very clean, to include the bathrooms. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. One regret is that o failed to take pics of our food when it was delivered to our table. read more

This is our third visit. Couldn't wait to try the French onion soup burger. Ask how I want cooked. Pink. My husband ordered medium also wanting pink. He took one bite and said " you won't be happy with the cook. It's well done". It took 15 minutes for order and all tables had been served. So, asking for a new one was out of the question. Beer, wine and two burgers and small onion rings $57 is disappointing to say the least. I can see management only replies to 5 star comments so I don't expect a reply. Also, when you ask for a replacement beer whenyour choice is out, asked for a IPA that doesn't taste like an orange , ask for a sample. I would have returned but hubby hates to fuss. We will not return. My " pink " burger on left. Also, I guess you have to request the burger cut in half. Would not fix in soup bowl provided. Habit still the best in town. read more

Looking for cold food ? Then this is the place for you. Waited 20 min or so and got served a cold soggy burger and cold sweet potato fries.

I think this is maybe my fourth stand burger that I've been to and I love them all they do everything very good. The food the onion rings. Everything was so good. It was so good to relax after being downtown and being on the road today I was so happy to get to the stand in Valencia on my way home to Lancaster. They never disappoint. Their service was wonderful. The ambience it's not too much. It's at a mall so parking is bad but once you get inside, you don't have to worry about anything. There's nothing on the menu that I don't like. I like everything from there I will be coming back again and again The only thing I wish they had was a crispy chicken sandwich. I just want to see how they would make one other than that I'm not really missing it. I just wonder how it would taste if they made one. read more
