    Lovely patio seating
    Dede S.

    The stand is a family favorite for us. Every one in the family enjoys it. The food is good. The service is great. Highly recommend the converse chicken salad!! This week when we visited a fabulous employee, Tu, introduced us to New dipping sauces. We can't get enough of the chili aioli! You have to try it! My husband really liked the fire sauce ( but it was too spicy for me).

    A fun spot for burgers with multiple locations in Irvine. We went to this one for a fundraiser and they were donating 25% of the profits to the organization. There is plenty of parking in the plaza. The indoor seating is made up of mostly large tables. You order at the counter and the food is brought out to you. The staff is very friendly and they keep the line moving quickly. It looks like after you're done dining, the staff will clean up the tables. There was a point where all the trash cans were full and a lot of the tables still had used trays and trash that had been sitting for a while. Even so, there were still plenty of clean tables that were open. My favorite item to order is actually the short rib grilled cheese. It's packed with meat and the outside of the bread has toasted cheese on it. The burgers are a decent size and they have lots of options for sides and drinks. It's a good place to go if you're looking for a classic American meal.

    I came back for round two!! 1st visit: Freaking delicious! Everything I ordered was mouthwatering. Their service is great. The ambience was perfect for The Stand.

    Chinese Chicken Chop Salad
    Tiffany C.

    Ordered through a third party office catering app, and the food came nicely packed with the salad dressing on the side. The chicken chopped salad does not skimp on the chicken pieces, it was loaded with so much protein and veggies. The ginger dressing complemented all the veggies and textures so well, loved the fried wonton chips too. This is my new go to order at the Stand when I'm wanting something lighter!

    ABC Burger minus onions and tomato
    Tammy B.

    The burger was decent. Smaller than expected, but tasted good. The service was good. If I were in the area I would eat here again.

    Ordered takeout so cannot comment on service or ambience. Got the tex-mex steak bowl ($16.25) which was delicious and healthy. Loved all the flavor profiles in one bowl. Agua fresca ($4) was fresh as well.

    Bacon egg burger

    I've dined in and have ordered a couple times through door dash. The Stand never has disappointed me! I love their salads, burgers and hot dogs. I ordered delivery through the Stand website which made it very easy. They use the Door Dash platform. Today we ordered a chili hot dog, and mushroom burger and an egg bacon burger. The burgers were great! We were able to order it with a medium cook which is great. I can't do well done burgers! Our burgers were delicious and well prepared. I have had the French onion soup burger and the burger with the crispy onion strings in the last and they're both excellent as well. We ordered a chili dog with banana peppers and red onions but there wasn't much chili on the hot dog so I was a little disappointed! The hot dog bun had cooked so it wasn't as good as eating it in the restaurant. I have gone into the restaurant a few times. It's always clean and the service is solid. You order and pay first at the counter and they will give you a number for your table. They bring the food to the table so I'd suggest tipping appropriately when you order and pay since they do serve you the food. One of my favorite burger places for sure! Highly recommend.

    An American dining with fusion touch in their dishes. Delicious and variety dishes that I can come back multiple times to try different food. Love the spacious and sporty vibe here. I had: 1. Peri peri chicken bowl 2. Tex-Mex steak bowl 3. Miso salmon bowl 4. Southern chicken wrap 5. Ahi tuna 2.0 sandwich 6. ABC burger beef 7. Thai tea milkshake 8. Cookies

    Albacore tuna melt
    Angela B.

    5 stars for the service 4 stars for tuna albacore melt My day is slightly whatever, but the warm service and non-robotic personality from the employees here are the cherry on top. Food tends to be good to amazing, depends what you get and who makes it. ============== I asked for some gloves because my finger has a bandaid - the guy with glasses asked me what size I need, if I wanted to try them on, and even shared with me how he eats wings with gloves lol The cashier was very pleasant, so yes you'll get that tip. Even the bussers and servers seemed happy to help. Lots of variety here for everyone, adults and kids alike. Salads, burgers, some wraps, lots of appetizers, a couple of desserts. You can choose from different types of cheeses and different protein selections (turkey, chicken, beef) The menu shows how much protein certain dishes have which is always helpful. Veggie burger is def one of my fav items here (5 stars) Even if something isn't amazing here, most items will be tasty (and not bland). I'll have to utilize the app more!

    Love how fresh the Chimichurri Steak Salad is for a quick service restaurant. The ordering process is easy - order on the app or with the cashier. The ingredients are fresh and the flavors are well balanced, all while being affordable! They also have wine and beer. Indoor and patio seating available. Overall a great place to grab a quick bite.

    Adrienne K.

    Location was nice parking was convenient clean indoor seating areas big enough for a family of 8. Also cozy outdoor seating area. Menu was simple and so many options that sounded so good. Havarti mushroom sandwich and Ahi salad were delicious. Customer service was nice, great communication, and the service seemed genuine. Like they were actually happy to help. Which was nice. Will definitely recommend and plan on coming back

    Is the chili gluten free?

    I'm not sure but they have Gluten Free hamburger buns and are very careful when we ask them if something has gluten. The people up front go back and either ask the manager or cooks.

    Are the meats hormone free?

    Do you have a tap list available online? I looked on The Stand website but didn't see a Tustin list.

    Our current beer and wine menu can be found at https://www.thestand.com/location/Tustin/ - and you'll find a button for "Beer & Wine Menu". We keep our menu fresh and exciting so some options may change. We look forward to serving you soon!

Checked on us multiple times in addition to letting us know additional specials not listed on the menu and checking on us before social hour ended. We got the short rib croquettes and the slider flight. All were excellent tasting. The short rib was tender and the potatoes were well seasoned. The burger was my favorite sandwich on the flight. It was tender and juicy and very flavorful. The pork belly sandwich was also nice. The Nashville hot chicken has a kick to it in case you like a bit of spice.

My son and I both ordered the ribeye steak, and neither of us enjoyed it. It was surprisingly bland, lacked flavor, and was simply not what you would expect from a ribeye. I was honestly shocked that a ribeye could taste so uninspiring. The service and ambiance were nice, but the food did not live up to expectations. Please do something about the quality of the steaks. To be honest, the ribeye I buy at Costco tastes much better. I really wanted to like this place, but based on the food alone, I can't give it more than 2 stars.

We call them and give them a heads up and wondered if there was still availability. Melody was pretty transparent and said that there is a different menu between two and five ---a more limited menu. She asked if there was anyway we could get there before 2 o'clock. Long story short, she was super gracious and told the cooks that we would get there a little after two and they would make us something from the lunch menu. Isa was our waitress, and she was phenomenal! Great sense of humor, very transparent about the different menu items. I got a copal and it was fantastic! Smoky and spicy, but not too spicy. We started our late lunch with Caesar salad, Sopa Limon, Seabreem fish dish. We also got the cubano. We were so stuffed by the end of it, but everything was phenomenal. The Caesar salad was a great way to start the meal, but after a couple of bites of it once we had the other dishes, it didn't stand out as much. We probably would've ordered the same thing all over again, with the exception of the Caesar salad (although it was still good!) Sopa Limon had a very unique bone broth flavor. It was a little sweet. So amazing. Seabreem dish - the vegetables played an important part in the flavors! The fries and the aïoli for the Cubano was amazing. The Cubano was excellent, but was a big serving.

I've had many breakfasts and evening dishes (salmon or salads).that were surprisingly good because usually hotel expectations are lower than average.

The patties are thin yet flavorful - the over easy eggs prepared runny just like I ordered and the rice is soft and warm. The homemade gravy is the best part because it brings everything together. Not too thick, not too watery. This was definitely a dish that I wolfed down like there was no tomorrow. I'll be back and will be circling Loco Moco on the menu as a go-to breakfast dish. That's all
