Not the best Mexican food. Too much chili powder. Cheap concession stand chips but they are $4 for a bowl.

Chicken taco. Dairy free. Side of guac. BEST THING EVER. Tasted it and had an explosion of deliciousness in my mouth...will definitely be back. My husband got a dairy free carne asada burrito and said that was amazing too. Their meats are mouthwatering! read more

If you've ever had good mexican food you would know this place isn't that great...ordered the pork tamale & carnitas taco plate with chips. Carnitas had hard chunks in it had to take half of it out, chips were store bought. They didn't even have Horchata! Only good part was the salsa! :( read more

Had pork burrito. Lots of cheese sauce and sour cream, decent amount of meat. Friend had bean & cheese burrito. Both cost a little over $10. It was ok, but not stellar. read more

Great food and service! I had two carne asada tacos that were perfectly seasoned and very tasty. The employees were friendly and accommodating. read more

Healthy alternative Mexican food, prices as low as possible, no credit cards to keep costs down, family-owned and operated which keeps hours limited, and the nicest people. Perhaps the finest salsa on the west coast, and great meals at wonderful prices. If you are in a hurry or want convenience, you may not be happy, but if you want authentic great food at superior prices and not a sea of refried beans and rice Tex-Mex, this is the place to be. Try the fish tacos and the combo burritos! read more

If you want great MEXICAN FOOD This is a must go place, I'm a chef,and it's great, The chips and salsa is great, had a pork tacos with marinate cabbage,and she had chilli Verde it was a fantastic, it's a must GO. read more

Now...I'll explain for the one star rating. I ordered Carnitas Tacos and a Carne Asada Burrito. After eating the Carnitas Taco, I was so looking forward to the carne asada burrito. I can't say how disappointed I was with the burrito. Half of the meat was fat. My friend and I shared and we both had the same experience. I'm thinking this was a one time thing. I hope they improve on the meat quality. It made me feel sick for the rest of the day. read more

Best in the county. Period

We eat at the Stand every week, year round. They have the best carne asada and it is usually my "go to" order, unless it is Tuesday and then I always order the Chicken Mole. Tammy, Jose and Kevin are a great team! read more

the bean tostada makes a great light tasty meal, I got mine vegan and healthier without dairy. basic but good.

If it wasn't for the atmosphere this would be a 5 star for the food. I'm finding out more and more and like a good book, a restaurant should not be judged by its cover. It doesn't look like much, on the outside or the inside. It's a "fast food" style set up, order and pay first. We came because the reviews were so good. We were not disappointed in the food! I'm always expecting quality Mexican food to come from very talented Latinos, to my surprise I didn't see any south of the border workers there. So that makes it even more impressive that Americans can achieve the quality of flavors and authenticity of Mexican food in this place. It was incredible! So good that as soon as I started to eat I forgot to stop and take a picture!! Portions are Great sized, and prices are perfect! We got carne Asada plate with black beans. Loaded with roasted veggies (mushrooms, zucchini, onions and red peppers) the meat was cooked perfectly and so flavorful! I am dreaming about that flavor. Others in my group had pork with marinated cabbage plate, and bean and cheese burrito. Everyone loved what they ordered. We were not disappointed. We almost judged it by the looks, we are so glad we didn't! By the way it's not dirty, just doesn't look like much. Basic. I also will add that there are some very awesome pictures on the wall of Mexican parades and really colorful costumes and stuff that I did enjoy looking at. Great place! Super friendly staff! :) read more

Went to the Stand today expecting the best Mexican food this side of the Rio Grande and instead I got the best Mexican food this side of the Rio Grande......FOR FREE!!!! It was a customer appreciation day for every single person who came in the door today totally unannounced "today's special 100% off", it was funny watching the customers trying to mentally deal with the fact that this family just wasn't going to take money from anyone today, precious really. Great family, Amazing food!!!!! I'll gladly make up for it in the tip jar next week but today our money was no good.....fantastic!! read more

Fantastic! Ordered the pork verde enchilada and it was the best I've ever had. This place is family friendly and very casual. The workers are hard working and it shows. read more

We stopped in early September when passing through town. I had a special that was grilled fresh vegis and pork on a tortilla.. this was one of the best things I have ever eaten in my life! I will always return to this little place when in Seaside! I only hope they have that grilled vegi dish when I return. YUM! read more

Great food, great prices huge portions. If you leave here hungry then you went to the wrong place. We are from LA and do a lot of travelling and I have to say this is one of my favorite hole in the wall places. We have already eaten here twice and have only been here a week. Eat here, you won't regret it. read more

Food was below average -- but the restaurant itself was filthy and the inconvenience of not taking credit cards is huge -- especially for out-of-towners. read more

If you want ambiance this is not the spot for you. But if you want great Mexican food this is the spot. I had the child verde burrito and it was great. The Chile Verde was the best I have had in years. The burrito was filled with so much meat it could have made 2. The prices were very reasonable. read more

best Mexican food I've ever had!!!! I go here every time I am in seaside! fresh, speedy, friendly, delicious! everyone there is so nice and the service is fast! great food, if you're ever in seaside Oregon that is the place to go!! They close at 5pm...some people have a problem with that but....it's seaside! Hello! Not all towns are like the ones you live in! read more

This place is excellent. Great seasoning and gave me several of their salsas - all good - with my take-out.

It is great. Nice service and the food was the best Mexican I've had in a while. Fresh and delicious. Spanish rice made with broken rice, black beans very flavorful. The burritos are nice sized and tasty. Must come again! read more

We ate here today and the food and service was excellent! Some of the best Mexican we have ever had! Highly recommended!

We went here after almost going to one of the tourist traps just down the street. My wife and I each had a tostada and the kids had a burrito and enchiladas. The carne asada on my tostada was awesome and the carnitas on my wife's was great too. The salsa was also spot on. If I lived near this place, it would be a twice a week minimum for me and the family! Great food! read more

Best Mexican food this side of the border . If u eat here be careful it is so good it will ruin all other Mexican restaurants as they will not even come close thank goodness I live close and can visit at least once a week to get my mexican fix enjoy read more

We have currently been living in Seaside for 1 1/2 years now from Seattle Area. This is by far the best kept secret in town. The stand has down right the best food here and gives and big city restaurant a run for the money. Great prices! Try the Torte Sandwich! OMG it is topped with 1/2 of an avacado, yes a whole half and piled mountain high with the meat of your choice all shredded. This is a out of the ordinary type of Mexican food place and # 1 on our list so far for the coastal area. Remember though cash and checks no credit cards. I always have to remind myself of that as well. read more

It's a hole in the wall restaurant, but super delicious! I often get cravings for the stand! Prices are cheap and portions are great! Everything's super fresh. Food usually comes out super quick unless you go during the lunch rush. The owner's the only one who works in the kitchen so so don't get all antsy. Not open on the weekends. read more

Authentic hole in the wall with awesome food. We live in Seaside and all the locals know that this is the BEST in town but only open M-F 11-6 and cash/check only. If we had one suggestion, it would be that we wished they were open later for dinner and on weekends. Also a credit card scanner might be nice(who carries cash anymore). Having said that, we LOVE THE STAND! read more

Best Mexican around! Have yet to have anything that was less than stellar. Bean and cheese burritos are outstanding as are the carne asada and chicken. 2 thumbs up. read more

Highly recommend if your looking for good mex food at budget prices. We were in Seaside for a couple days, saw the reviews so checked it out. We will def be back. The Chips were tasty and warm. Guac was good. read more

This was pretty good. I got the bean rice and cheese burrito enchilada style. It was okay. I thought this was pretty good and was cheap. The guy was not very welcoming and didn't really talk. But it was still pretty good. read more

The stand is where the locals eat. Affordable delicious, and top of the line Tex Mex is what you will find here.

Yumm, so good. Great local place, busy lunches, great prices and great food. The owner is incredibly friendly, great service. The chips and salsa are killer read more

After eating at the Stand every other Mexican Restaurant will be lucky to get one star from me. To be truthful I have been going to the stand for sometime now. I cannot make my self go anywhere else. read more

food was just ok but the service was the worst ever. they lost our food order(after charging $1.35 for 2 ounces of guacamole) and they couldn't of cared less. we went to this based upon yelp reviews and have never been lead wrong until now. do yourself a favor and skip this restaurant!!! read more
