The food was good. I ordered a burrito. It was 2x larger then i was expecting. The meat was over cooked and chewy but I would recommend it for the flavor. It was clean inside and the prices were reasonable. read more

The Stand - Carne Asada Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

We were pleasantly surprised by this place today. We didn't know where to go but found this gem right next to tons of other places to eat. They're kid friendly, which is great when you have a two year old. They had brand new crayons and coloring books for kids to use while there. Food was really good, considering none of the staff I saw was Hispanic (not that it necessarily means the food is good, but sometimes you expect that for authenticity in ethnic food). Most places I order chili verde it's bland and spiceless. This was the perfect amount of spice and the pork was very good. My wife and toddler had the nachos and a burrito. Very good prices for the food quality. We will definitely be back someday. :) read more

WOW! A local spot hole in the wall for sure, but this place did not disappoint!!! My boyfriend, who is a local from Cannon Beach, took me here for lunch. He ordered us a pork quesadilla the way the owner has it (it's not on the menu but just do it)! The mouth watering pork was to die for. It is huge, but I ate every bite! We drank a cool modelo while waiting at a table outside. They even bring you your order, with handmade salsa and salsa verde! Can't wait to come back! read more

Good service. Friendly staff. Good prices. Street tacos very good. Good Chile mushroom quesadilla. Fresh guacamole and salsa

Great food, selection, and very nice people working there. My burrito was amazing. Thank you guys ;)

Wow! Another Seaside disappointment using Yelp reviews. What gives? Went in for lunch not too busy. It as its name implies is a self service joint with seating. I had a spicy vegetable burrito and asked if it has cheese in it and was told yes. What I got for $7.50 was a tortilla with iceberg lettuce and almost hard and cold zucchini and celery in it and not much else. A trickle if any cheese. No rice no beans nothing. It was not the least bit spicy and I had to add a ton of hot sauce, then it just fell apart. What a disappointment!! Guacamole was served in a small plastic condiment cup and cost $4.25 chips were extra. The guacamole was fresh but I make the same at home nothing outstanding. Carne Asada platter consisted of rice and beans a bit of cheese, two flour tortillas and then burnt black steak and again the same raw vegetable mix with the added bonus of almost raw mushrooms. Almost $12. Rip off!! I have no idea why this place gets such good reviews and I wish we'd tried the taco place across the street. If people think this is good Mexican food I should open a taco stand in my back yard because my Mexican food is much better and I'm not even Mexican. Nor were they. There was also no chicken or seafood on the menu. An overpriced mess read more

Fantastic tacos, burritos, and salsa. Excellent service. Had the asada street tacos, and the home-made corn tortillas put it over the top. The cashier was great, answered all our dumb questions. read more

This place is one of my favorites for tacos in town. The a huge and delicious. I usually get mine with no shell and it come packed full of all the goodies. The salsas are bomb. I enjoy mixing them both together. read more

Excellent food. Nice space to sit down (it's not a food truck/stand, despite the name). Great pork carnitas plate, on a bed of cabbage to give it crunch. Home made tortillas were excellent. Note: No credit cards! (Kind of weird in 2017 in a tourist town) read more

This was by far the best food we have had on our vacation!!!! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Our food was out within minutes. Fresh is an understatement! I cannot even describe how good it was! 6 of us we're all delighted by our meals which covered a good portion of their menu. Their homemade corn tortillas are to die for. Do not miss this place!!!!!! read more

The Stand - Mexican Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

This is a real "joint" and a local's favorite. The food is fantastic and authentic, the service is consistent and family-owned. Lots of vegetarian -friendly options. The interior is what makes it one of those great whole-in-the wall places - it could use a facelift, but then would it be just as good? read more

My partner has been coming to this restaurant since he was 10 years old. He turns 29 on Sunday. He remembered this place, so we took our kids and tried it out. I got the carne asada tacos and it was overflowing with meat and it was just the perfect amount of grease to be delicious. I love their sauces and salsa, its fresh and packed with flavor. We will be back next time. read more

The best Mexican food in Seaside... we always look forward to stopping by for fresh made healthy food. The best service too. Quick and friendly. It's as if they remember us!! Awesome. Another great lunch. read more

Seaside was the place to be in June, especially if you were in my family. Because my family had a family reunion in Seaside that week. My husband and I like to eat more than most people in our family. (To clarify: we enjoy eating more, and we also eat more in volume.) So we scouted out The Stand as a place to grab some great Mexican food in between the planned family reunion meals. TRY THE NACHOS!! We also loved the American Taco. And the tamales were excellent too. Everything I ate was terrifically delicious. We ended up going every single day that week and every time we were seated in the corner talking with our mouths full of food and exclamations. Great, great food. read more

I dont know what all the hoopla is on this place. The wet burrito I ordered was like not that phenominal! Sure the rice was authentic mexican but i got it to go and after digging in, they put the cheese on the bottom, where it stuck to the paper plate!Yuck. Like anyone wants to eat shreds of paper in their burrito! Plus they sealed the entire thing in plastic. Yuck-i had a burrito w a dose of toxic plastic air encasing my food! Not that good for 9$. The day before i went next door and should a trusted my instincts: I highly recommend Guadalajara Taco shop instead right across the street instead!! I had their wet burrito and it was simply amazing!! Perfectly encased (and large) burrito w mexican rice & really good shredded chicken topped w enchilada sauce cheese and lettuce and crispy tortilla chips. You cld tell they make their food w pride! read more

Best Mexican food we have found since moving to Oregon and it's an hour and a half away for us! I'll gladly make the drive!

Fantastic Mexican food! I can't believe I'm going to have to drive over an hour to eat here, but I guarantee I'll be back! Absolutely worth it. The asada and pork are delicious and the homemade pico is absolutely perfect! Would give more stars if possible! read more

On the outside The Stand would appear to the majority to be a total dive. You might pull up and say "Carl, where the hell are we? Why have you taken me here?! What is wrong with you?" but you will be eating your words as soon as you eat the blessed food that waits inside. The veggies are fresh. The tortillas are made in house. The meat...the MEAT. It is so moist, so flavorful, and so wonderfully textured. Every piece of pork is caramelized and bursting with the perfect blend of acidity and spices. It's like that perfect piece of meat on your plate that you save to eat last except it's EVERY piece. The steak is tender and just charred enough. You really can't go wrong with what you order. The only wrong you can do is not going in. I do not give five star ratings to everyone. Go to this place. The next time I'm in Seaside I will consider bypassing hotels completely and beg the staff to let me live in their lobby. read more

I'd like to give this place a 2.5. I do not understand how a restaurant can close at 5PM? Do you realize how much business you lose by closing that early? Do you care? Must not, as your apathetic order taker / waiter who spent more time cleaning up to get the hell out of dodge than he did ensuring the customer is happy proved. FRESH CHIPS? Yeah, fresh from a bag. FAIL. Carne Asada was dry, burritos were bland and uninspired. Good prices, but bland food. I don't understand all of the positive reviews. Judging from the lack of decent Mexican eateries on the Oregon Coast, maybe people just don't know quality and good flavour. I will probably give your burritos one more chance, but come on....try to give a half a damn and make it so we want to give you business. CASH ONLY too, so don't make it too easy for us to patronize you. read more

This has got to be the best Mexican food at the coast. We (the wife and I) have been twice now and everything we've ordered has been fantastic. The portions are large. The prices are reasonable. The flavors blend wonderfully. They have black beans as an option (this is important to be The staff is friendly. They have outdoor seating for those 2-3 months when that works at the coast. So far we've had: Carne asada burrito (good seasoning and salsa, not as lean as I prefer) Chicken quesadilla (large and piled high) Chile verde burrito (leaner than asada, swimming in tomatillo and juices, delicious) Bean tostada (awesome fried tortilla, pico de gallo added great flavor) This place has definitely become a fixture for our Seaside visits. read more

I ordered the carne asada taco and I've got to say it was delicious. The meat had a wonderful crispy char and cooked to juicy perfection. I loved it. Make sure you get in early because they have crazy beach loving hours, closing at 5pm and cash or check only. RIP credit card users. read more

The Stand - Three Carne asada tacos. Cooked to juicy perfection. I loved every last bit. Highly recommend. 5 out of 5!!! - Mexican Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

Blah, blah, blah...lived in SoCal...blah, blah..Mexican food in Cascadia..blah...blah...blah. The place is legit. I was a little put off at first at the price of a taco but what I got was at least double the meat of your average taqueria in a single taco. In fact, at lunch one would have been fine and I was pretty full after two. They have really well seasoned carnitas and carne asada and tasty salsas. Good option for cheap lunch in Seaside. read more

I had heard about this place the last time I was in Seaside, but due to the limited hours did not have a chance to try it. This time I made an effort to grab a meal here. While the food was good, I think my expectations were too high based on the reviews I read here. It was not amazing and I was not blown away, it wasn't even the best Mexican food I had while in seaside (the place across the street was much better). The carne asada was under seasoned, the rice over-cooked, although the salsa was very good. Overall it was an ok meal, but nothing like what some of the other reviews here claim it to be. read more

My wife and I are huge mexican food fans and when we saw all the great reviews we decided to give this little hole in the wall a shot. Wish we hadn't. Terrible. Should be called the "Stand up and leave while you still can" unfortunately. We started with some crappy tortilla chips (anything you buy at the grocery store would be better. They were warm though, so at least they did that right) and mediocre pico de gallo, which sadly turned out to be the highlight of our meal. When the rest came, the rice was mushy and overcooked, the beef was 50% chunks of fat and the beans were bland and odd tasting. My burrito was barely wrapped (fell apart immediately) and my wife's quesadilla was just weird looking (Not flat, but like a poorly made taco). We choked down enough to satiate ourselves until our next meal, but ultimately felt like the $20 we spent was a complete waste of money. read more

Best burrito I had on the west coast... Ironic that it was in Oregon, not Cali. Juicy carne Asada, good blend/assortment of ingredients (cool sour cream, fresh Guac, delicious warm black beans, piquante salsa). Every bite was heavenly... Or rather scoop. The burrito was falling apart so I had to rip pieces of the tortilla and dip it in to the innards. Not a problem, would do again. The salsas on the side were also the bomb and never ending and the price was very reasonable (less than $10). read more

The Stand - Carne Asada burrito with the works - yum! - Mexican Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

We were a group of three and each ordered different items. None of us finished our meals. It seemed like frozen vegetables with watery tomato paste and too much salt. Perhaps it was a bad day, but it not only was some of the blandest Mexican food I've had in Oregon, it's not even better than any of the other local places in Seaside. I would recommend the Left Coast in Manzanita if you can make the drive, even though the menu there is limited (mostly mission style burritos). read more

This is the one place in Seaside not to miss. Remember, they only take cash. We had a couple of Carne Asada Tacos. The meat was seasoned just right and got that bomb char. The tortilla is just a tad crisp. Wow it was great. Really hit the spot. read more

This restaurant was amazing! The food was outstanding and reasonably priced. The portions were just right for one person. Everything was so tasty and was gone within minutes because of how good it was. You can't go wrong with anything you order. Don't miss out on this spot, the locals love it too! read more

Absolutely amazing! Was recommended by a local and was not disappointed. Friendly staff and super fast service. I can't wait to come back to Seaside to try it again. read more

The Stand - Pork with marinated cabbage - Mexican Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

I had a combination plate with chili relleno and a pork taco, which was delicious. Their beans and rice was good and I liked their salsa especially. Now,.. there is a little more to talk about here. This was a cash only place and I didn't have enough cash, and the nice lady of the restaurant told me to go ahead have the food first and pay her later because an atm was three blocks away. When I thanked her and seated myself, she came up to me again and said it's already payed by someone. Immediately I realized this was some random kindness you come across once in awhile but I wasn't ready for that. My head was still fuzzy from series of drunken nights and lack of sleep past few days. The funny thing was nobody around my table seemed to be surprised to hear that. The lady said 'this is Seaside'. Now I have pressure to pay that back. It's pretty awesome to see that kindness spreads like that. It values way more than one free lunch. read more

The food here was excellent and the employees where very trusting and friendly. They were a cash only business and my SO walked there with only our card so they let him bring our food back and go pull out cash for them, no fuss. It was very understanding of them, we really appreciated the understanding and we can't wait to visit again. read more

Our fav place for Mexican Food. We've been going ever since Jose' and his wife had the place on Ave. U and it was always filled with surfers! My favorite thing is the veggie tostada with chicken. It has tons of fresh sauteed veggies and lettuce, cheese and sour cream etc. and just the right amount of chicken for this girl...oh and with black beans, yum. I don't think it's even on the menu but Jose' knows what I like. :) Their Combo Burrito is so awesome too...!!! Whatever kind you want, it is huge and filled with the beans, rice, cheese, etc. HUGE. Chips and salsa, tamales, everything is great! Wonderful family owned place. read more

The Stand - It's what's for lunch! Delicious veggie tostada with black beans & chicken! Yummo! - Mexican Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

Oh, gosh this is good! The meat is well prepared and flavored. And, is that real lard in the refried beans? I believe so! This is no fancy place, but it's taste and quality are excellent. It's a short walk from most places in Seaside, which is great to avoid the hassle of getting back in the car and dealing with Highway 101. read more

Best tacos in the area by far, carne asada and carnitas are so good. Nachos, quesadillas and burritos all are amazing. 10/10

Got my Mexican food craving satisfied here. Chicken mole special was good and fresh. We also enjoyed carne asada tacos. Homemade salsa delicious. Only negative was the terrible nachos--but overall would go back. read more

We got the smothered pork burrito, 2 American tacos - one carne asada, one carnitas, and a side of chips/salsa/guacamole. Everything was fresh and delicious. A great find on our road trip. read more

HMMMM, WOW, DELICIOUS! I'm from LA, visit Palm Springs often, and was raised on home cooked Mexican food. Put simply, this is as good and fresh as it gets. I like to think I know Carne Asada but this is a game changer. Chunks of delicious steak, perfectly seasoned and grilled. My daughter had a grilled vegetable quesedilla (hey, I said I know the food not that I could spell it) which she loved. The pork & cabbage taco is also fantastic. Home made salsa topped the cake. read more

Ok I will say the flavor of my Carne Asada taco was good but it was so fatty I could not even eat it. My corn tortilla was hard and fell apart when it tried to fold it. My husband had a chicken Colorado special there was nothing even remotely good about the Colorado sauce Sorry oregon I don't think you know what good Mexican food is. read more

My boyfriend and I both ordered the Carne Asada burrito, the flavor was awesome! The size was big and filling but not insanely large. The meat itself was kind of chewy. They don't wrap the burrito how you would expect so it quickly falls apart and becomes a yummy mess of food. Would recommend and will come again! read more
