We just ate here and the service was excellent. The owner/manager personally came up to each table and it was a really kind man. The food was made with high-quality ingredients in the restaurant itself is very clean and tidy. read more

Great service, food was good and fun atmosphere. Renato was very helpful in helping us choose what to order.

Told my boyfriend I wanted a proper date night somewhere nice, and we ended up here. He used to go to the Northridge location and was curious how this one stacked up. The ambiance? Casual but still inviting. The only hiccup was figuring out where to pay--the counter isn't obvious at all when you first walk in. I thought it was at the bar, but it's actually tucked away in the very back. Food time: my boyfriend ordered the short rib grilled cheese, and he said it was just as delicious as he remembered from Northridge. I went with the jalapeño bacon burger and a kids-size mac and cheese (yes, they offer two sizes). The burger? Incredible. It reminded me of the cheap jalapeño cheeseburgers I used to inhale at Carl's Jr. back in college--but this one was on a whole different level. Fresh, flavorful, with crispy bacon, onion strings that weren't soggy, and just the right amount of jalapeños for a perfect kick. I demolished it. The mac and cheese, though, was another story--lukewarm, bland, and underwhelming. Even my boyfriend, who usually doesn't mind mild flavors, agreed. As a mac and cheese snob, I was hoping for better. Still, I'll definitely be back. Next time, I'm coming for that Thai iced tea milkshake. read more

I had a really great experience here! I came in with my family, and Paulie was super kind and welcoming. Went out of their way to make me feel comfortable, which we really appreciated. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Food was delicious. Ambiance was loud cause they have sports on all the TVs. Service was ok, nothing superb. I thought it was a sit down restaurant with a server but it's not. U stand in line, have ur order taken like ur at a fast food place, they give u a #, and u go sit at a table and they bring you your food. The shakes are phenomenal!!!! Had a cookies & cream and cookie butter shake and now I'm addicted. read more

I've always been a fan of The Stand, but my visit today was unfortunately very difficult to enjoy. It was 100°F outside, and the air conditioning inside was broken, making the dining room incredibly hot. While I understand that equipment failures happen, it was quite a struggle to finish a meal in those temperatures. I felt especially bad for the staff, who were working hard despite the heat, but it made for an uncomfortable environment for a sit-down lunch. I really wish there had been a sign at the door or a heads-up from the staff so we could have ordered for takeout instead. I'd love to come back because the food is usually great, but unfortunately I wont be wanting to return until the A/C is back up and running. read more

The food is really good an it's a great casual place to come and get a beer and food. My favorite thing on the menu is the turkey clubs on sourdough. The sourdough is delicious. The regular fries are delicious and the sweet potato fries are just as delicious. Haven't had anything I dislike. read more

The burgers were absolutely amazing, but the stand out was without a doubt the Mac and cheese it was so creamy and had a great bite to it with the breadcrumbs on top. Our service from Renato was awesome as well, he's so animated made us feel welcomed and made sure everything was good. We've never had a restaurant feel so lively but also quiet so I could actually eat my food in peace while talking to my girlfriend. read more

The Stand - American Classics Redefined - The Jalapeo Bacon Burger with a second patty - New American Near Me - Whittier, California

Went here for dinner at this location for the first time on Saturday. I wanted to take my grandma there to introduce her to The Stand, since I myself enjoy their food. This location is very nice and open with a large selection of patio seating, for a Saturday around 6ish there was plenty of open seating. I love the giant open glass door/window that they had opened allowing for the cool breeze to enter the indoor dinning room. I ordered the Tex-Mex bowl for the first time and it was delicious. I did ask for no pickled jalapeños because I can't handle spicy foods. Our food was delivered quickly and they brought additional items we forgot to order straight to our table. My grandma enjoyed her southwest chicken salad & said she would definitely return back. read more

My husband and I are displaced by the Eaton fire and we are temporarily located in Downey. We eat out often because we don't have a kitchen where we live. We discovered that we REALLY enjoy the following items from the Stand: 1) Chimichurri steak salad 2) onion rings -- I'm really picky about my onion rings and these are the perfect amount of crispy and thick. 3) 1/4 lb stand hot dog with as many toppings as possible I've also had the turkey burger, which is decent, and my husband likes the veggie burger. I've never dined in so I can't speak to the service and the ambiance. That said, I'm only giving 4 stars because sometimes the food isn't consistent when we order delivery. A couple times the chimichurri salad came with little to no greens, for example, and once it tasted really different from usual. I couldn't put my finger on why, exactly, but it wasn't as good and I couldn't finish it. Otherwise, we have really enjoyed ordering from the Stand almost every week. read more

New spot at the shoppes decided to give it a go with the wife. Ordered their mushroom burger and the wife ordered an ABC burger Wait time was about 15mins for a busy weekend, indoor and outdoor sitting is available. If you download the app you get buy one get one free, which we didn't know as it wasn't advertised anywhere. Pricing is a bit high. For two burgers a drink and onion rings was almost $40. The food was good quality, the servers were nice and overall had a positive experience. Cons: for the prices you'd expect a drink and some fries, but those aren't included. I would recommend this place based on my experience, but would also mention the high prices. read more

"The Stand" in Whittier consistently serves an excellent and tasty menu. There are gluten-free options available but not as many choices as its predecessor, Grub. Service is very good. Bartender Michelle has been a favorite for many years (Grub & The Stand) for her consistent servings of my "Old Fashion," among others. She creates a relaxing bar experience for customers. The Whittier and San Diego restaurant locations provide a consistently in food servings. They always get it right! read more

After a 2 hour road trip, my husband and I stopped by The Stand for a quick bite. Their menu has lots of good and greasy options that sound mouth watering. I ordered the short rib grilled cheese and my husband got a burger (I forgot which one). We also ordered chili cheese fries and onion rings on the side. The food was tasty but the short rib grilled cheese was a little too much for me. It had lots of short rib meat which might be perfect for some people but it definitely overpowered the grilled cheese part for me. My husband said the burger was decent too. Staff was friendly and and there's lots of seating inside and outside. No issues with finding parking in their lot. I wouldn't mind coming back if we are in the area but it wouldn't be a place to go out of my way for. read more

I used to live in Pasadena and would frequent the location since I lived about a block away. I'm glad to report that the food at this location maintains the quality and freshness.

If you love a great burger and fries, you'll love it here! Their menu has a variety of items so it was hard to narrow down options. They have wraps, salads, burgers, sandwiches and a list of sides. It was really busy and since everything is made to order, you will be waiting 15 minutes or so for your order. I ordered the Chicken Club Sandwich which included a perfectly grilled chicken breast on a brioche bun,bacon, avocado,arugula and a sweet chili aioli. Everything paired really well and was super fresh. Their fries were also fresh, simple but delicious. One sauce that stood out to me was their ranch! I'm assuming it's made in-house and it was my favorite! They also had a sauce similar to your typical thousand island which was also delicious. My son ordered the beef burger with cheddar cheese on a brioche bun which he devoured. For his side, he chose Mac and Cheese which he also loved and he ordered the Cookie Butter milkshake. I absolutely would recommend checking this place out, there is something for everyone! read more

this restaurant used to be called grub burger bar, something like that and then they changed to the stand which I think is a small chain in Southern California I'm not positive. I love this place. It's a beautiful restaurant. It has an open bar staff has good sandwiches are good value is good! I go here about once a week to once a month depending on what I'm craving! the steak salad here fantastic and filling. Great parking. this place is a 5.5 thank you. read more

Went back out to give them another shot, and we were very satisfied! I got the same thing as last time and it was so much better. The food was nice and warm/hot still. My burger wasn't overcooked, medium rare just how I wanted it. The chili cheese fries didn't have crazy chunks of onions or tomato. My meal was perfect, honestly. My partner got the turkey sandwich and enjoyed it very much! His only complaint was that the large garden salad wasn't very large.. The line moved quickly, and we waited maybe 10-15 minutes for our food to come out. Overall, it was a great experience. read more

The Stand in Whittier is truly something special. The food is consistently amazing fresh, flavorful, and satisfying every single time and the price point is fantastic for the quality you get. It's one of those places you feel good about coming back to again and again. What makes this place especially meaningful to our family is that my son, who has autism, chooses The Stand as his special weekend spot for one-on-one time with his mom. I work long hours, and this has become our sacred time together. The comfort, consistency, and welcoming atmosphere here make it a place where he feels happy and at ease and that means everything to me. The staff on Saturdays and Sundays are absolutely the best kind, patient, friendly, and genuinely caring. They create an environment that feels warm and inclusive, not rushed, and that level of service is rare and deeply appreciated. We are so grateful to have The Stand in our Whittier community. It's more than just great food--it's a place where memories are made. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of our lives. Thank you! Colin and Christiana read more

Re-writing my review because it got flagged & removed for some reason :) but okay let me re-word things this time. Came here for dinner with my husband, brother in laws & my toddler. We were confused on where the entrance was but after looking around for a bit, we found it and headed inside. Once inside we were confused again on if we just walked to order or if we sat down. We had to ask other customers near by who then told us to just walk down and order. Lots of seating here, lots of tv. Great place to hang out with friends, especially if there's a game on. Service was okay, the girls at the register were nice but the ones walking around didn't look like they wanted to be there. I got the stand burger, which was delicious and reminded me of the habit. A couple other things on the menu caught my eye so I can't wait to be back. read more
