Tried the chicken tortilla soup today for the first time! It was amazing! $4.74 only. Cash only. So worth the money!! I'll be back to try what else they have on the menu! read more

Good mexican food is a real treat when on vacation. Looking for some good Mexican food here is the spot to go.

Wish I could give this place a couple extra, well deserved stars. First off, its conveniently located, close to our hotel, in a cute little building on the corner of 1st and Holladay. Walking in its clean and inviting. In the midst of our ordering we noticed the CASH or CHECK ONLY sign and panicked. We rushed to find some cash and ended up $3 bucks short.The woman taking our order told us not to worry and to just bring it in next time. Which we will be coming back, for sure. We ordered the #6, carne asada taco and pork taco, and fish tacos for the 3 of us. All delicious, authentic and for a great price. Will be most definitely coming back for more! read more

I love this little place, it's a great little place to run in and grab something fast that's not fast food though if you know what I mean. The tacos are awesome and the fish and chips are amazing, I have lunch here several times while at a week long art show and was never disappointed. read more

We walked from our hotel room. Excellent, authentic flavored carne asada tacos! Bean burrito, carne asada enchilada and carne asada burrito all a hit with the family as well. Reasonably priced. Friendly service. read more

The food was great. The Peccadillo beef is delicious. We split a combo plate with taco and enchilada and rice and beans plus we got one extra taco. Satisfied us both. They have juice, pop, and bottled beer. Small place but quick, clean and friendly. We'll go back soon. read more

The best burrito joint in Oregon, possibly on the west coast. Such a little hole in wall place, but my oh my the food is to die for. The carne Asada burrito was delicious and totally filling. Two meals were $16. I will be going many times before I end my vacation. Keep up the great work! read more

Fantastic food at a great price I am jealous of seaside and their casually awesome restaurant

Been to Mexico. I've been to LA, San Diego. Live in western Washington. I've been up and down the west coast. The Stand is HANDS DOWN the best Mexican food Inhave ever has. EVER. Was so incredibly lucky to stumble on this gem last year. I love the Oregon coast for its many exquisite and quaint little towns, and I would never thing that a restaurant would be what would pull me back to the area... thirsting for a visit. That has all changed, the moment I sat down and had a steak taco and verde burrito at The Stand. Cannot. Wait. To. Get. Back. To. Seaside. May very well be having three square meals at The Stand... as long as they're open for breakfast (refer to Yelp)! read more

First place we hit when we got to Seaside after a long road trip. Not a fan. Unfortunately the food was not that good. The burrito was soggy and falling apart halfway through. I had more of the filling on my hands and in the basket it came in. The restaurant felt dirty and a bit like a dive. Cash only was an inconvenience and prices seemed a bit high for what you get. read more

Not what I was expecting. Looked like a place that'd have good food, you know the old saying the worst the place looks the better your food. Nothing fancy or anything. Counter service. Had to pay for chips and salsa, never seen that before at a Mexican restaurant. Chips were store bought. Nothing fancy. Salsa really sucked. Was extremely chunky. Like too big, chip would be overwhelmed by either a chunk of tomato or onion. Ordered the recession tacos. Just regular street tacos. Meat was cooked perfect and tender, however it tasted like roast beef. Nothing Mexican flavored. Green sauce seemed bland. Thanks for the cilantro. Only thing that made it taste "mexicany" also ordered Carne asada with veggies. The vegetables were clearly cooked and reheated. Top 5 worst Mexican food ever. read more

The best Mexican food ever! Small family run place that has the best hospitality you could ever ask for. Home made corn tortillas made everyday! Huge servings for a small price. Can't ask for any better! read more

The great thing about Mexican food is that often times, the appearance of the location is the direct opposite of the quality of the food. Most of the great tacos, burritos, etc that I've had in my life have come from out of the way places that you need a recommendation from the friend of a friend of a friend to find. Thankfully, Yelp pointed my family and I to this one. FANTASTIC food. We each ordered something different and after sampling it all, we hit some great food across the board. Be sure to add some of the green and/or red/brown sauce from the table to your entree to add a little extra. The salsa fresca and chips were a nice appetizer while we waited for our food to be brought to us. If you like some great food for pretty cheap, this is the place for you. read more

The food was amazing, best mexi in seaside.....

This place was awesome! I got the pork verde enchiladas and they were delicious! My family enjoyed their food as well. Will definitely come back here when I'm in town. read more

This place has great service, but usually closed on weekends:( It was open this Saturday though. I loved the food, tacos, and burritos. Everything was pretty much prices well. I would recommend this place for future vacations read more

Delicious for a good price. We tried the carne asada, pork, tortilla soup, and a Chile relleno. Everything was well seasoned, though we found the soup a little too spicy. The flavor combinations tasted unique, not your usual tex-mex, served in good portions. Highly recommended. read more

We were looking for a local Mexican place to get lunch to go and I'm glad I Yelp'ed this place! The staff is very friendly! I ordered a burrito and it was AMAZING! The food is very fresh! I will defiantly be back here next time I am in town! read more

Amazing!! We read the reviews and visited while here in Seaside. We got the carne asada tacos and nachos. The meat is grilled and tasty, the corn chips were small, round and unique. The food was so very good, and priced well. We will definitely return! read more

A big surprise in terms of food quality and portion in this coastal community. Great flavors and more than enough to request a doggie bag for the road. Wished we'd discovered it sooner! read more

Spicy vegetable burrito was amazing!!! As was the guac, the salsa and the carne asada! This SoCal girl is happy!

Quality was extremely high, generous portions, great staff, and great taste. Excellent stop on the go!

My favorite lunch spot when in Seaside. So good, affordable, fast and casual, things we like since we have a toddler. I always get the veggie tamales. My husband got the chicken mole and it was so good we almost literally licked the plate clean. read more

I have been coming to Seaside for over 20 years and without a doubt this is the BEST food in town. All of the ingredients are so fresh. Make sure to try the salsa! read more

Best Mexican food ever. I moved away from the beach 10 years ago and when I come through town I always stop in. I have a hard time ordering because it's all so good. Things I can highly recommend would be....everything! If it's your first time here have 3 tacos. Beef, pork and chicken then you'll have a favorite meat choice for burritos or plates. Share a chicken quesadilla if your with someone. Or have one as a meal, they're big enough. The sauces on the table complement perfectly. read more

The combo burrito was so good, I'm going to have lunch there again tomorrow! One of the few good places to eat in Seaside. Bring cash! They don't take cards. Well worth it! read more

you don't expect good food in a tourist ocean town..what a TREAT! We ordered Carne Asada Burrito Enchilada style, and pork verde enchiladas. YUM! My wife said it was the best Mexican food she has ever had. I thought it was VERY very good. No ambiance, no fancy anything, but delicious and memorable food. We're gonna be back many times to try their entire menu. read more

The best Mexican food in seaside. I used to live in New Mexico, and find that this food is good enough to appease me when I want good fresh Mexican food. They have odd hours, making it more of a lunch only place. Serving sizes tend to be larger than expected. read more

Carne Asada burritos are the best...actually more like a giant taco but who cares? So tasty. Always look forward to the stand after surfing. I'm from San Diego and while not 100% authentic Mexican...I highly recommend it. read more

If you want authentic Mexican food, this is the place to go. great food quick good service.

THE BEST. Hands down my favorite local food joint that always puts out the best food. Tostadas, Nachos, Recession Tacos, and the burritos are just killer. It's not like the other 100 mexi cuisine places around at all. I love the stand ! read more

Whatever the daily special is. Get it. If you don't feel like the special, the veggie and/or meat quesadilla is amazing.

Great food! A definite must stop in seaside. The carne asada recession tacos are the best

Excellent we had meals (combinations 10.95) very satisfying, I could not finish. The pork and cabbage was ridiculously good.

Very good food and fresh ingredients make this place. Don't judge the book by the cover though.

So stinking good! Had the carne asada burrito, which was massive! More like a giant taco, though, it fell apart quickly. But still delicious. All the salsas had great flavor, and just the right amount of heat. It was our first time here, but we can see why it is so popular! read more

We have loved the stand since it first opened in another location. The prices are excellent and they do not cook with lard--very important for my husband and I. read more

Great food! One of our favorites in Seaside for lunch. Best Tortilla soup I've ever had!! Today I had a pork bowl and the flavors were so delicious, doesn't need anything but the salsa is so yummy I had to have some. Fast service and reasonable prices for such fab food. read more

We loved this place! Make sure to check their open hours before you go, as we missed them a couple times, but when we finally at here, it was WELL WORTH it! Their food is outstanding! I would say it is some of the best Mexican food I have ever had and I am from TEXAS- home of the best Mexican food anywhere! Also, the restaurant was clean and the tables were totally hip! We look forward to coming back here again!!! read more

Stopped in here based only on Yelp reviews and so glad we did. You order at the counter and then the food is brought to your table. I had the green chili and cheese quesadilla and a pork taco. with rice and beans. DH had a beef and grilled veggie plate (can't remember the name of it). Loved the quesadilla, cooked to perfection and perfectly seasoned. I get tired of being served quesadilla's that aren't crisped up a bit so appreciated that. OMG the pork in the taco (these are real mexican tacos), was probably the best I have ever had, the flavor was fabulous and so moist and tender. The rice was fairly standard, the beans were delish with chunks of the beans not all mashed. DH enjoyed his meal as well, a huge portion, but lots of flavor with all the veggies. The prices are very reasonable especially for the quality of the food. This is a hidden treasure, away a bit from the main drag, but easy to find, close to the Holiday Inn Express. Too bad it's not open on Sat/Sun, we wanted to go back once more before we left town, but well surely be back to taste more of their menu selections. They only take cash too. read more
