    Our go to place when it comes to big juicy burgers and delicious fries. You cannot go wrong with a combo here at Paul's.

    The counter

    I came here w a friend since they have a wide variety of different opinions and we wanted choices as I wasn't totally sure what I was in the mood for. Really friendly staff. Ambience was loud. We found a booth inside and they had plenty of seating both inside and outside. Maybe we just happened to be here when it was super busy...(lunchtime on a Tuesday.) Food was freshly made. I got the chicken gyro and the yogurt sauce was tasty. The pita was nice and fluffy. Pretty good for place that makes a little bit of everything.

    Been coming here for years. Prices have gone up but what hasn't. We enjoy the weekend breakfast (they end at 1pm) along with the usual burgers and greek chicken salad Yummy choices are breakfast combos or country fried steak, pancakes, and fries or has browns. Service is meh.

    Fried Zucchini with Parmesan

    Amazing food as always! I would pass on an order of fries from here. I've had better and they serve them unsalted. The service was nice but for whatever reason they brought one order a bit delayed in comparison to the rest. Ambiance was very nice for the holiday season, I enjoyed the decorations. Their deluxe California burger was amazing!

    If you're craving a burger that gives you the "made at home" taste, this is a good place to try. I got a bacon burger , which was very tasty and fresh. The fries were freshly made. I give it a solid 8/10.

    Something has changed, maybe it's just the pre-pandemic memory of what used to be, but it's not the same as it used to be. Food: Still good, small things have changed, the items not quite the same level as they used to be, the prices more than I would hope. Still good, but... Service: Still just as friendly as ever, they have a good staff at this location. Ambiance: Still plenty of seating and a clean atmosphere. In all it meets our needs. :)

    Very disappointed with the pricing. Two hamburgers, two fries, onion rings and sweet potato fries ...totaled $44.12 which seems excessive. Being charged extra for ranch on top of that was frustrating. There are better value options nearby like Volcano or In-N-Out. Sadly, I won't be returning.

    Gyro salad  Blt sandwich and fries
    Stephanie R.

    My go to everytime I'm near one. Gyro salad or the blt sandwich or maybe both!! LOVE Paul's place

    Very tasty and a lot of meat . Will come back again

    It's very tasty . The pastrami had a lot of meat it also . The place is very clean . Will come again

    Chicken burrito

    The food is always top-notch when I come here, the drive-through does take a minute, but that's what you get when you get fresh food made when you order. The people are always friendly and the seating is usually always open. The food is a little on the pricier side but again that's what you get for the quality of food they provide. DELICIOUSNESS.

    Disappointing fish and chips I want to puke!
    Meliza S.

    I ordered a avocado burger with zuchini fries and fish and chips dinner with 2 large Pepsi the zucchini wa so small and overly battered. The fish and chips is 3 pieces of fish nuggets and old fries. Very disappointed.

    Deep fried mushrooms. Grill ham and cheese sandwich (wrapped in wrapper) hubby had a hot dog and a chef salad.

    Food in general is very good, especially the breakfast burritos and their hamburgers - one of the best in the area.

    Prices are too expensive for quality of food. Not worth it. Fries were soggy and burger was full of cheese and barely meat.

    I must've been living under a rock -- this was my first time at The Stand, and I was seriously…read moresurprised at how good it was. I ordered the curry chicken sandwich and wow... it was packed with layers of flavor! A perfectly spicy kick, a big juicy chicken breast, crispy fried onions, basil for and added layer, and the most delicious curry sauce. So good. I can't wait to come back and try more items on the menu. The guy at the counter was super friendly and helpful. I was a little hesitant about the spice level, but he reassured me I'd like it -- and he was absolutely right. Plenty of seating both inside and outside, with a relaxed, casual dining vibe. Definitely looking forward to my next visit!

    For the third consecutive year, I've been put into a position where I've had to organize a catered…read morelunch for a group of 10 to 20 people at work. Not wanting to choose one of the two eateries I chose each of the past two years, I went with The Stand to see if I can give them the 4th star that I've been trying to give them for the past year or two. The final verdict? No, unfortunately. This year, I was in a rather unique situation where I also had the option to double my party size, and The Stand had catering packages that would feed both party sizes: The Feast for 10 to 20 people, and The Big Feast for 20 to 40 people. But don't think The Big Feast is twice the size of The Feast; rather, the only difference is an additional platter of 20 half sandwiches/wraps. Otherwise, both will have a platter of 20 half sandwiches/wraps, a large gourmet salad, a large side, and a cookie/brownie platter. After much deliberation, I went with The Feast with Meyer Lemon Broccolini and a Sidekick of Chinese Chicken Chop Salad with Chips & Guac. I chose all this to avoid the need for flameless heating kits since I wasn't sure how they'd work. I was drafting an email to the catering team to add some supplementary instructions I overlooked initially, but after the FIRST15 to 20 minutes following submission of my order, Sydney from the Catering team gave me a call to ask for clarification on some details based on my email communication. Really appreciate how punctual she was at this, and she was happy enough to send out an updated invoice. However, I learned from Sydney that the Meyer Lemon Broccolini would need a flameless heating kit even though the catering website did not mention that. In fact, during my email communication prior to placing my order, I pointed out that the Meyer Lemon Broccolini and Red Ginger Green Beans weren't listed as vegetarian despite being vegetables, and they confirmed they were indeed vegetarian, but not vegan. I noticed these oversights were immediately addressed after I brought them to their attention. However, their website still indicates their cookies are vegan when they are not; I'm not going to bother with another email at this point lol. I had given them two weeks' notice for my order, knowing that the catering team can change it on their end. I didn't want just one flameless heating kit, so I decided to switch out the Chips & Guac for the Mac & Cheese, which is about $13 more. I arrived about 10 minutes before my scheduled pickup time, and I saw my catering order out in the open on a table where any customer could just grab it and go. Luckily, there were only a few customers inside, and when I stopped by my order, Kim came out to greet me. We recognized each other even 8 to 9 months after those technical difficulties spelled out in my last review update. I asked her to review my order with me before leaving, but when she said "Chips & Guac", the abstract record in my mind came to a screeching halt. I asked to see the invoice, and it was the older version from before I made the switch. I later found out they had printed my invoice too early even though their catering team said I could decide as late as the day before. Luckily, Kim checked the kitchen and needed only about 5 more minutes for the side of mac & cheese to be ready. She also let me keep the chips & guac even though she initially said she could swap it out, so that was nice at least. I also appreciate how they waited until my arrival to make a custom grilled cheese sandwich for my vegetarian guest, who enjoyed said sandwich. I also asked to put that guest's name on the box so I could tell easily. However, my abstract record cacophonously halted again when Kim asked me to pull up to the front door so they could load my order into my car. I had parked close by and previously requested for at least one employee to help me carry my order to my car. Also, I didn't want to block the right lane of the frontage road through the town center, so Kim and a team member helped carry the order to my car. My guests enjoyed the food for the most part, and I used this opportunity to invite them to visit The Stand with their family/friends on their own time (and dime lol). My order included an abundance of sauces and dressings, and I also appreciate how there were label stickers on each half sandwich/wrap in the platter. However, I would highly recommend a different means of labeling these sandwiches/wraps. As an example, I tried to grab a Chimichurri Steak Wrap only to find out it was actually a Falafel Wrap, which was the only vegetarian option in the platter. Good thing I got my vegetarian guest that grilled cheese sandwich! Lastly, if you've managed to make it to the end of this review, I'll let you know there's a discount code for customers placing a catering order for the first time. You actually read it in this review somewhere. Missed it? Sorry, I'm not giving it out like that. You'll have to re-read the review :)

The order process was pretty simple -- I responded to their Instagram story and they reached out with follow-up questions, menu options, and pickup details. The pickup was from a home residence in the city of Garden Grove (off of Brookhurst Street and Hazard Avenue), nearby Pho 79 if you're familiar with the area. The exact address is provided with your order! The owner, Aamir, was very friendly and professional when I picked up my food and the burgers were packaged very neatly in separate boxes. I ordered two smash burgers that included three patties each, which cost $15 per burger. They included caramelized onions and jalapenos, which were a delightful surprise. The patties were a little salty, but upon reading the other reviews, I see that the owner pre-marinates the patty meat.

The burger itself was massive, with one being more than enough to feed a hungry person. After talking to the owner, he mentioned he pre-marinates his meat, so that could be the reason why the taste was a little salty for us. The sauce is awesome and complimentary, so when ordering, if you don't plan on eating the burger right away, to prevent sogginess, ask for extra on the side. I know some people prefer the meatiness, but I am a sauce type of girl. Overall, the flavors of the burger meshed well! Thank you for adding another place for halal goodness. I'm hoping you guys do well and keep quality up.
