    Stand burger
    Anthony V.

    3.5/5 Burgers weren't bad but they weren't amazing. If I'm in the area I'd definitely come back & try something else on the menu. It was really clean & everyone was friendly. I'm shocked by the lack of desert options since the normal food had a large amount of options. The pickles before the food was cool.

    Chicken burger... classic.

    While visiting my sister on a work trip, we decided on a local place and stopped in for a burger at this sports bar. To our surprise the Margueritas were fabulous and the burgers delicious. The fries were crisp n crunchy. It's a very family friendly place. Nice on a slow Sunday afternoon. Friendly staff too.

    Love the Stand in Whittier! The food is really good n the frozen Paloma's are super yummy! I love the indoor/outdoor feel of the patio and the bartenders are always super nice and friendly.

    5/5 As a Whittier local, The Stand is my go-to spot for elevated bar food that never disappoints. The menu is impressively robust for a sports bar, offering everything from hearty burgers to lighter salads. The open, lively atmosphere--with low and high-top tables, a bar, and TVs galore--makes it perfect for solo meals, family outings, or catching a game. I'm a huge fan of their blue cheese burger, which rivals Red Robin's (though Red Robin's bottomless fries might give them a slight edge). Recently, I switched things up with their new teriyaki bowl during a family dinner with my wife and toddler. It was a hit! The marinated cucumbers, pickled onions, salted kale, and vibrant purple house

    Stopped by here on Wednesday evening and it was popping. The bar was pretty busy which probably means the drinks are great. We opted just for dinner and there was plenty of seating. The service was great. Even though you have to order up front the employees are constantly coming around to check if you need anything. The falafel wrap was so good and packed with veggies. The salad was also great and very filling.

    Frozen Paloma is a nice refreshing choice on a hot day

    We're at The Stand so often I'm pretty sure they're considering charging us rent. It's so good, I probably wouldn't mind. The food? Always on point. My personal kryptonite is the ahi sandwich--perfectly seared, flavorful, and dang delicious. My wife swears by the kids burger (yes, kids burger) because she can customize the toppings and still get a side... and frankly, it's the perfect size for her. (And before you ask--no, they don't card you for ordering one.) Our visits are never complete without a couple of frosty craft beers from the bar. If you like a hazy IPA, the "Liquid Candy" is dangerously good--it's basically sunshine in a glass with a gentle IPA punch. The layout deserves a standing ovation: a spacious, covered patio that's both comfortable and breezy, plus an airy dining room that flows right into it. The bar sits in the center like a friendly neighborhood hub, serving both inside and patio patrons with equal enthusiasm. In short: Great food, great drinks, and a space that makes you want to linger just a little too long. Check it out--you might end up a regular, too.

    I've been a fan of The Stand for several years, and a frequent customer at several of their locations. I was pleasantly surprised with my first visit to this location; the interior is huge with comfortable booths, they have a bar, the patio can accommodate a large number of people, and the staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful (especially Paulie who is a standout employee who excels at superb customer service). I ordered a Stand Burger with both sweet potato waffle fries and regular fries along with a chocolate milkshake. It's one of those places where you order at the register and it's brought to your table in just a few minutes. One thing I like about The Stand is that you choose how you want your burger done (I usually go medium rare or medium) and they actually cook it correctly! Although they have numerous burger options I always gravitate toward The Stand Burger. It's their "basic" burger; the quality of beef is excellent as are the fresh toppings and bun. I love both their regular fries and sweet potato fries so got some of both, and their milkshakes are always among the very best you'll ever have. This may be my favorite of all The Stand locations.

    Came here to celebrate our seniors graduating high school. The menu was not quite what I was expecting. The meals are sold a la carte so if you want fries or a drink, order them separately. The food was delicious. The Cobb salad was especially refreshing. The only issue we had was a friend of mine needed her burger remade twice. But, the wait staff were very helpful. Interior has a sports bar theme to eat. Open interior and a great place to visit if you're in town.

    I love coming here for the food and bar. Staff here is very friendly and attentive. Shout out to Jennifer and Felipe for always making my visit extra special every time They have many tvs to watch the sports games. Definitely recommend the burgers and the southwest chicken wrap

    The onion stack hamburger cooked to medium rare was pretty good. The meat was moist and tasty and I throughly enjoyed my burger. I had high hopes for the onion rings but that was a failure. I was expecting goodness but it wasn't all that good. The staffer said the onion rings were habit burger good but she was misinformed. It looked freshly made to order as I was waiting for my order to go. The ambiance was fresh and alive with semi outside seating and bench style seating. Plenty of TV's around the seating area for sports related news. They have bar seating with a bunch of TV's around there.

But I've learned that if I order my steaks rare or even blue rare at a place not known for their steaks, it comes out to the desired medium rare I wanted all along. Such was the case tonight. I asked for rare but it came out closer to medium rare--maybe even dipping into medium. No big whoop. The baseball steak was still juicy and delicious. The fries were still great shoestring. And I can live with a chimichurri sauce instead of the preferable hollandaise or bearnaise these usually come with. I just wish I could actually ask for a medium rare and get medium at a food joint other than where it costs me $60 or $70 a cut. The service was good. She was pleasant and quick on her feet. The ambience was good. It was a quaint space and had a lot of charm. I can't say it was too full but I attribute that more to the day being full of sporting events like the World Cup and some silly NBA thing than an actually critique of the restaurant. Subsequently, I found this a good place for dinner but not superb and I found myself wondering when the next like fate might bring me here.

Menu was varied and interesting with some specialties, sandwiches, and salmon. Prices were fair for these times. I had the strawberry goat cheese salad and the baked dinner rolls with sweet butter. Enjoyed it all. My husband had the burger with fries. He said both were very good. I'd like to try the bacon crusted salmon or the gnocchi next time. We did not have dessert. Service was friendly, helpful, and efficient. This is a tiny gem in Uptown. They've been open about a year. I hope people will discover and enjoy it like we did. I think a small candle on each table would add an inviting element to go along with the pretty fresh flower centerpieces. This place can also comfortable accommodate groups.

I had to go to the bathroom and when I walked thru the restaurant there were a lot of empty tables. Odd that there would be a wait. There was a table for 4 near the front door, without a reserved sign on it, and it was empty the entire time we waited. We were finally seated and they put us at a table for two. Meanwhile, that table for 4 was still empty. I'm not sure if you've ever spent time with a 10 month old, but clearly the hostess hasn't. They are grabby and want to explore everything they can possibly get their hands on, including hot plates on a table. Luckily, our server knew this and when a large party in the restaurant left, she brought us one of the 2 person tables they'd been using. Fortunately it also aligned with when our food was coming out so we didn't have to worry about our baby burning her hands on the plates put down on our table with a "they're hot" warning. The kitchen was really slow. I'm not sure if they were backed up, but with the amount of empty tables, they really shouldn't have been. It took at least 20 minutes for us to get our appetizer after we ordered it, which was the chile verde fries. Luckily, all of the food made up for the previous paragraphs and is the reason for 4 stars instead of 3. The Chile verde fries were so good! Not too spicy, a great balance of fries, meat, sauce, and cheese. The egg was a nice touch and made the dish feel like chilequilles with fries instead of chips. We also ordered a 3 meat plate with pulled pork, brisket, and tri tip. The pulled pork was pretty standard. The brisket was falling apart delicious and I liked that it didn't have a ton of fat in it. It was interesting that the tri tip had grill marks on it, I don't think I've ever seen that before, but it was very soft and delicious as well. For our sides we got the collard greens and mac and cheese. The collards were very high in vinegar, something we aren't used to, but my husband enjoyed them. The mac and cheese was really good! You can tell they use fresh cheeses as opposed to velveta. The garlic bread was good and really flavorful, but I do wonder why other tables around us seemed to get 2 slices per person and we got 2 slices total. Not a big deal tho, just found it odd. Overall, we really liked Steve's and will be back, as well as recommend it to people. We'll just make sure to have a reservation before we go, and maybe make it for a party of 4 to ensure we get a good sized table.

For…read moresome reason I thought the inside was larger but it is a cozy place, large enough for a group of two. Ordered a shareable platter which on the menu, I think it states for 3-4 but dang. I think it could feed *at least* 5-6. I would def recommend if ya'll can agree on the sides. I love Mac n cheese, I mean who doesn't, but if you're that one weirdo than opt for something else. The Mac isn't the best I've had but it's worth a try. The meats are delicious, except for the chicken. For some reason I wasn't really impressed with the chicken. Service was pretty good and easy parking in the back. After lunch or dinner take a stroll in uptown and check out the shops. Overall Steve's is solid and I'll go back.

When we arrived, the hostess notified us that they were accepting walk ups and reservations didn't matter. We waited over an hour to be seated. Initially, they sat us separately at two booths. This is unacceptable on Mother's Day when we were trying to celebrate our Grandmother. Thankfully, our waiter was able to clear a spot on the patio. Following being seated, the waiter did not come. I got up and asked if they could come to our table because we have two diabetic family members. The host I spoke with said he would send someone, but there was some attitude. Our waiter came and was kind, but the whole experience has been awful. We waited over an hour and twenty five minutes after being seated for our food to arrive, and they didn't bring it all out at once. My pancakes ended up having a hair in them and had to be sent back. We have since asked for a manager to come to the table 2x, and they have not come. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. It has ruined our last Mother's Day with our grandmother before she moves away later this year. Over two hours wasted total waiting to be seated and for our food to arrive.
