This place was excellent! We had visited another location before, but we only grabbed our food and left, so we never got to fully enjoy the experience. This time, everything was outstanding. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the customer service was excellent. Even though it gets packed during lunch, the line moves quickly and ordering is very efficient. The food does take a little longer to come out, but it's definitely worth the wait. The chimichurri steak salad is my absolute favorite, and the chicken Southwest wrap was just as delicious. It's a great spot for quality food, with plenty of TVs and a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere. Whether you're stopping in for lunch or hanging out to watch a game, it's a great place to be. Definitely recommend! read more

This is a follow-up to thank Zach Wishengrad, Vice President and Oscar Escobar, Great Experience Manager at The Stand Restaurants for reaching out to make sure what I experienced at the Westlake Village location doesn't happen again. Assurances were made that the team will have a review of sanitation, cross contamination, food prep and proper use & disposal of gloves. I was also issued a refund back to my credit card and extended a personal invitation to return as their guest. As I mentioned, I do use The Stand App and have been an enthusiastic repeat customer for years. Besides the quality of the fresh ingredients they use, this is a family owned and operated business and Zach's response proves how much they value their customers and strive to make each experience the best it can be. Cheers! "CC" read more

Interesting tag line for this business... "Redefining FAST casual." Hmmmmm. I guess if you wanna redefine "fast" as 30-45 minutes from ordering to delivery, then OK. Hype is so overrated. But I gave 2 stars cuz the food while nothing special (besides hype) was alright. read more

I REALLY like this Stand location! I've been to a few of these and this one is by far my favorite. Inside it's just nicer, quieter and less crazy and has lots of tables that feel nice to eat off of. The outdoor portion also feels equally nice to dine at and doesn't feel like just a few chairs added outside for the sake of it. This time we got the miso salmon bowl which was really good and filling (very easy to split) and a side of sweet potato fries. I loved feeling like I didn't have to get a burger to feel satisfied here. Everything was delicious and staff accommodated every request! Pretty much everyone we talked to were nice and kind so it seems like great staff too! Really happy with this one, will definitely be back! read more

Food and service are great. As someone who can't eat gluten or beef, a good burger (if you can still call it that) is hard to come by! I appreciate being able to customize just about any of their menu options to fit my dietary requirements. There is an up-charge for a gluten free bun but there are free alternatives as well. read more

Update: The Stand was very apologetic for the mix up on my first order. The customer service dealing with my complaint was excellent. Today I gave them a second chance and the order was done properly and I really enjoyed it. Flavors were great and I was very satisfied with my meal. Thank you Oscar Escobar for all your assistance! I greatly appreciate prioritizing customer service and will be happy to return for meals again in the future! read more

A wide variety of burgers, my favorite being the "onion soup burger" with gruyere cheese, wine grilled onions and Parmesan cheese encrusted buns. It comes with a bowl of onion soup for dipping and drinking. Really delicious. Service was kind and quick. A little loud inside, nice on the patio outside. Easy parking. A pleasant place to meet friends over good food! read more

The food has been good each time we've been here. However, today, even though we arrived early, we had to leave due to the indecisive group of 6 people ahead of us. At no time did management step in and open another register for those who were ready to order. We weren't the only ones leaving. Chaos. read more

I have mainly eaten here for work lunches, and food has always been fresh and filling, and service is friendly and helpful. It is nicer fast casual where you order at counter, and food is brought out to table. You can self serve drinks, and they have some nice fruity concoctions! This feels like a mix of Habit Burger and Urbane Cafe. There are burgers, healthier wraps and salads and bowl options. Portions are pretty generous, and dipping sauces are tasty and more unique. Can't go wrong eating here, and variety of choices to suit larger group tastes. The menu options are vast so it's a bit overwhelming to try to pick your favorite item! read more

The Onion Soup Burger and chocolate shake were exquisite. It was a novel experience dipping the burger into the onion soup. read more

Loving The Stand right now as it's the perfect spot for every member in my family to get what they want. My son usually goes for a cheeseburger and fries. My husband does a lettuce wrapped burger with alll the toppings and a side salad. My current obsession is the teriyaki chicken bowl, sub lettuce for rice and add pickled jalapeños. Bursting with flavor, so filling and totally nourishing - chefs kiss! Parking is plentiful, though the spots right outside the restaurant can get full. The restaurant itself is bright and spacious and there's a nice patio area as well. Great to stop in with the family or online order and takeout is a breeze. read more

Yum! I've been to the stand in Orange County, but decided to try this one on vacation. Yummmmm! My short rib grilled cheese was fantastic, with perfectly cooked meat, crispy onions, and the right amount of cheese. The fries were pretty good too. I recommend their ranch and bbq sauce for dipping, but I found their ranch was more of a garlic aïoli than a traditional ranch in texture and flavor. They have great outside and inside seating, though it was pretty busy seeing it was a Friday afternoon. read more

This is a most elevated burger experience! With their house made aiolis and the astounding variety of options you can feed everyone in the family. The salads are plentiful, the bowls are amazing with plenty of veggies-the seared 2.0 burger is over the top delicious. I keep returning to the southwest chicken burger, but the shroom havarti is also stellar. Fries, sweet potato fries and onion rings are ON POINT! They have Mac n cheese and nuggets for the kids, great service, a great variety of local beers on tap. This is no greasy spoon. This is a wonderfully elevated burger experience. You'll never want to go anywhere else for a burger. read more

One of my absolute favorite restaurants and now I have even more reason to love it! I recently was diagnosed with a gluten allergy and have been pretty nervous about eating out. I had dinner at The Stand in Westlake Village and I cannot say enough amazing things about the service I received. I ordered with David, who was so kind, knowledgeable, and reassuring. He took my allergy seriously from the start and made me feel completely at ease. Then the manager, George, went absolutely above and beyond. He personally went to the kitchen and I overheard him telling the cooks to separate my food from anything with gluten to avoid cross-contamination. In a world where you sometimes feel like you're being a burden for asking, I truly felt listened to and cared for. It's rare to find a restaurant that not only has incredible food, but genuinely cares about their customers' health needs and pays that much attention to detail. Thank you again to David and George for making me feel safe and so well taken care of. You have a customer for life. I will definitely be coming back and telling everyone I know to come here read more

I absolutely recommend The Stand. The food is delicious, they never mess up an order and the staff is so polite and kind. Jorge especially stands out to me. What a great spot!! read more

Cute space, friendly staff, good portion size on the food- it was good but not amazing - a bit salty for my chicken bowl and only 1 slice of avocado :( Overall would definitely go back and try something else - seemed fresh and it was fast! read more

Our go to for big juicy burgers . The onion stack is my favorite , kale salad is great too ... but I miss the scoop of tuna salad . Fries are a crunchy perfectly cooked treat . I've tried many items and they are always tasty , bowls , salads , and wraps ! read more

Always good. Great place for adults and kids! Food came quickly and empl8yees were very friendly. Love the pickles. read more

My family and I have been here twice already and both times have been freaking amazing! Hands down some of the best burgers we've ever had. We've tried the ABC Burger, chili fries, chips & guacamole, Onion Stack, and Jalapeño Burger. All the burgers were cooked perfectly to our preferences. First bites and it was heavenly. The fries on the chili fries were crispy and the chili complimented it nicely. Seriously, if you're looking for a fantastic burger and great service. The Stand is a must try. read more

I came back for a second time and the kids crispy chicken bites were a hit with the mini-me. Everything was as good as last time, except the chips and guac are not as good as the chili fries, but still good. This time I had the Onion Stack burger, just to try something different though I was craving another jalapeño burger. The Onion stack did not disappoint. Odd to say this considering I also had onion rings, but I can't stand the taste of onions. Thankfully, the onion strings in this burger made it more of a western bbq burger and less of an onion anything. My only complaint is that the onion rings were soft. They weren't bad, tasted alright, but not what I look for in onion rings. I like more crunch and less onion in the onion ring, but again these were ok. Based off this experience I'd say it was 4 stars, but still reminiscing about the jalapeño burger I'm keeping the review at 5. Well that's this critic's review. Until next time, I'll be eating. read more

What can I say? The burgers, shakes and fries at The Stand are always good. I dislike the a-la-carte style of dining but I can see why others may disagree. I enjoy the food, but the real reason for my review is the service I received from Z! Z was friendly, professional and truly great! He was kind, attentive and personable. Thank you for making a great experience for me! read more

We love The Stand! Our large party of 11 was easily seated at the ample outdoor tables! We all got something different, burgers, salads, sweet potato fries, shakes, and everyone loved everything! There is a variety of sauces to try so make sure to take advantage of that! The southwest chicken salad was SO good that I didn't think I would be able to finish it, but I did! I've had the wrap as well on a previous visit and it was also so fresh and a great mix of flavors! The employees were really nice and helpful. It just took a long time as the line moves slowly. read more

Great burgers and sandwiches. I also really enjoyed the bowls last time I visted. Can be a bit slow when during the lunch rush.

Atmosphere is clean, staff is nice, and food is great! There's little wait time and tons of options for vegans, vegetarians, or people who are gluten free. The chicken club was great and they have a large variety of sauces, as well as free pickles to snack on :) read more

First time here and glad we did. After church, we were starving so we all got burgers, fries, onion rings and a drink. They have an extensive menu so we'll be back to try other burgers, sandwiches, salad bowls and the sauces they offer with it. The group enjoyed their Harvarti mushroom and lettuce wrap burger, everyone was happy so it was a win win. read more

Bye Bye...to "The Stand" from US, YOU HAVE JUST LOST SOME REGULAR CUSTOMERS! We have been regular customers for a while at least once or twice a week with a few family members or alone! The food was mostly good. This (Sunday at 3:00) afternoon we went for a late lunch just the two of us....two "Do-it-yourself " Burgers.....the Stand was almost empty...no rush...the kitchen had all the time in the world to fry up a couple. The sandwiches were O.K. but the meat was obviously sitting around for a while since lunch they used a couple PRE-COOKED Greyish cold burgers ...by lifting the bottom bun you could see no grill marks just DRY MEAT. You ought to be ashamed! I expect that at McDonalds....we won't be back! ************************* We since got a responcse from the VP of the Stand apologizing but before I could respond it disappeared???? read more

This was my second time going in for lunch at the stand. It was busy but the line moved quickly.. all the employees were super friendly and seemed genuinely happy to work there. Immediately they reassured me there was no need to clean the table they would do it for us. Which was a nice surprise since that can be hard to do with 2 young children. My kids got the mac n cheese and the chicken bites. Both chose sweet potato fries as their side. They loved it ! I got the chicken wrap and a side of chili cheese fries. Both were outstanding. The booth we got was very comfortable and clean. read more

I have good things to say about the food quality salads , burgers .The place is well lit plenty of seats indoors and outdoors and plenty of parking . But... second time I pay extra for cheese and french fries and they don't put them in . So quality control needs work guys! And if you're the customer take a moment and check your order for missing items since this happened twice now . read more

Had to make a quick stop before I head back to Phoenix and the Stand did not disappoint. I got the short rib grilled cheese and it almost had me out for the count. Service was solid, they recommend you download the app as you can receive reward points and on your first visit, free fries. I believe they make their sauce in house as the aioli and ranch dip tasted so fresh and full of flavor. Plenty of space in here and if you are a football fan they do have the games on in here. read more

Great spot for all American food! The restaurant is very spacious with lots of tables inside and out. They have a lot of TVs to watch sports as well.

All the food was fresh, tasty, and didn't disappoint. Great place to hang out with friends or family. You place your order at the counter and the staff will bring your order promptly. We'll be coming many times I'm sure. Happy Nom Nom! read more

Went to the strand to get the Ahi Tuna burger. A warning make sure to ask well done or you are eating sashimi. The spicy fries were ok and the green beans had more fried onions on it than green beans. Was pretty underwhelming. read more

Wifey and I have been wanting to check this place out for a while. There was no line as we walked right up to the counter. Our staff member was friendly and eager to take our order. We requested the Short rib grilled cheese and the Ultimate Egg burger. Both sandwiches were simple, yet well built ! The Grilled cheese was loaded and exploded with flavour !! All the layers of hearty tastes were abundant and wonderfully overwhelming !! It had a great crunch on its initial bite then opened up with the braised beef taking center stage as the melted cheese created the velvety texture. The Ultimate Egg was amazing ! The ingredients were fresh and tasty ! I loved to taste of the burger paired with the sweet and creamy chili aioli the tangy pickled crunch of the red onion! Very satisfied with the outcome of this new experience. The restaurant was wafting with delicious aromas while the inside and outside were immaculate !! There is great spacious outdoor seating and plenty of screens inside to catch a game or two without the crazy noise levels !! Great place to relax with great food !! Cheers ! read more

This restaurant is the perfect go to place for my husband and I to hang out on a casual weekend! We have taken multiple friends and family here, and we always love the vibe of the restaurant which includes live television of sports games playing in a lively sphere! The food is also so delicious, and the salad is so freshly prepared for myself, and my husband, go to burger was perfectly cooked! The staff are always so nice, and this is a restaurant where you pay at the counter and then they bring you the food based on the number that is listed on your table. Everyone here is so warm, it really truly feels like a family friendly place! read more

The Stand is a solid spot for a juicy burger. My personal favorite is the Onion Stack, a fun Western burger with onion crisps and tomato jam. The crispy chicken bites are also a must-try - they're juicy, crispy, and easy to pop in your mouth during the meal. The onion rings are more onion-forward with less breading, if that's your preference. Service is pretty quick, and the team members are attentive, when removing dishes and trays when you're done eating especially when you're seated inside. Worth a try! read more

First time here...most likely will be my last. Had to see what the online hype was about. Absolute mid experience. Paid 30 bucks plus tip for an ultimate egg burger(double patty), fry and a regular drink. We waited 30 mins for the order to arrive snacking on pickles. Wasn't even busy. The lady who brought the order didn't bring my fries. She seemed lost and didn't know where the food went. The customer before us (and sat next to us) did the right thing. She got a full refund and left as her food was cold and took a long time. I wish I did the same. Could have been an off day... but if I'm paying that much for a burger meal. I'd expect better service, hot food, and overall experience. I'll take my business elsewhere. Unreal. read more
