Updating my review for an exceptional lunch experience! We arrived at a very busy time, but the line moved quickly. After getting seated, I noticed on our receipt that the Sweet Potato Fries was regular size, instead of the large we normally order. I should have noticed this before paying so I went back to the register to see if I could get this changed and pay the difference. After explaining the mistake to the team member, he immediately went to the kitchen to let them know. He then said that there wouldn't be a charge. He also delivered our food, making sure that everything was correct. It was all prepared perfectly! Notably excellent service during a peak dining period! read more

Wonderful food wonderful service, higher price than average but little to pay for a good experience. The cookie butter crunch milkshake is the best thing on this earth. This successfully cleansed my palate after ryan at yogurtland, still do not recommend that! Edit: Thanks so much for the response! Idk if it's an auto response but if it is not PLEEEEEEASE bring back the cookie butter crunch milkshake!! It was amazing I was so sad I wasn't able to get one the other night but I still had a great time! read more

Visit July 2026 On road trip passing through Santa Clarita. Hungry. The Stand is close by? Automatic! Love their salad creations! Daughter got the Kale Quinoa Crunch Salad which is a family fave. Since she got that one, I'm a little peculiar about ordering the same thing lol, I tried the Chimichurri Steak Salad. Fresh greens, kale, mint, and cucumbers. The first bite brings the word "refreshing" to mind. The steak was tender and flavorful. Darn right we got the sweet potato fries! Service is always friendly. Place order at the counter and they deliver to table. This location seemed bright and spacious. World Cup was on so it was a bit busy with multiple TV's. The Stand is always great. read more

The Southwest chicken salad was very good. You can substitute grill chicken for the standard on the menu which I enjoyed. Also had the ABC Burger that is Avocado Cheese and Bacon. I substitute the blue cheese for the cheddar. Also the strawberry lemonade is good but a little tart. I would recommend a few sugars and it's perfect. read more

Food is great, love the feel of self service, but with actual table service. They greet you with a big "Welcome" from behind the counter and kitchen. Pickles are a plus, great ice too. Our granddaughter loved the MacNCheese. They also bus every table and clean them, fresh for the next guest. read more

Friendly employees. Our first time eating here. Everything was delicious. . I feel like the burger could use a little seasoning. Fries and onion rings were delicious. Our order was delivered to our table with precise timing. There were a couple gnats flying around tables. That was our only negative issue. Extra pickles ranch, and ketchup for sides Great ice read more

This place was a huge surprise. Usually we try to eat at local businesses, but the combination of the reviews and our cravings got the better of us. So we settled for this American Burger chain. Pretty big store that felt modern and welcoming. The layout was great and we didn't feel lost at all from start to finish. We were in town because of a friend's play, and it was nice that it was right next door too. I got the Onion Stack Burger. The patty was well seasoned and the crispy onion strings gave it a wonderfully textured bite. Hickory sauce was tasty and the fries were crispy and well seasoned. I asked for ketchup on the side and I don't know why but cold, refrigerated ketchup always taste the best. I had to drop a star because the service was lacking a little. The worker was nice and responsive but we had to wait quite a bit as I think he was talking to a friend when we got there. He noticed we were in line but they were just having a conversation unrelated to the burger joint. She left the spot after 5-ish minutes and we were greeted pretty carefree following that. He also forgot to give us our number which we had to go back for. Anyhow, the food was great, and the ambiance was great. I'd definitely recommend a try if you can't think of what to eat while shopping/waiting at the mall. read more

An updated review on one of my family's favorite spot to eat. Yes, I am a fan. My favorite burger to get here is the French soup burger. AMAZING BURGER! Cooked to perfection, stacked but wrapped well enough for an easy eating experience (I lie. I still ask for a fork and knife.) I would like to say I would try the rest of the menu but the dozen times I have come here, I order the same burger. Now the sides have varied. I tend to share the fries with others as they are served generously. Crispy and seasoned, these are great fries. Our current favorite is the roasted brocollini. It is citrusy, bright and light and it goes perfectly well with the burger. And I love the complimentary pickle chips! Service is great. You order at the counter and they take the food to your table. Ample seating but inside and out. Valencia can get hot but there are more perfect sunny days/afternoons so outside eating to me is a must. Great burger joint that I will be happy to return to! read more

It gets an extra star because you are literally in a food desert in Santa Clarita! I always go for the brisket sandwich on pretzel bread. My brother loves the French onion soup burger and the sugary vanilla cream ale nitro beer. The salmon burger is solid, too. They have a large menu and do everything well. The best part about the Santa Clarita location is the outdoor playground within walking distance, perfect for letting hungry kiddos burn off energy while you wait for your order. read more

We LOVE the Stand. Their burgers are always perfectly cooked and the freshly made picked they have are out obsession. They are always so nice and welcoming and the food is cooked pretty quickly. We also enjoy the ahi tuna salad. We only had one bad experience with it where it didn't taste fresh, but it was fixed right away. It always busy, not never too busy. The ambiance is añways fun around sports games. We enjoy grabbing a draft beer(they have a good selection) and watching the Dodger Games. We definitely recommend this place. read more

This a great place to grab a quick bite or hang out and top it off with a delicious shake. The food is great with all the options like burgers, sandwiches, bowls, wraps or salads. I like that they have friendly alternatives for vegan, gluten free, dairy free choices. They also serve a good selection beer here. Try the mint chocolate milkshake. It is truly a great experience. Thumbs up to this place! read more

It was my first time at this location and I was very impressed! The long line moved pretty fast and there was plenty of seating! The service was fast and friendly. The Coke Zero went out on the soda machine which was a bummer but the food was great. They are located by the giant mall so parking wasn't great but we found a spot. If I'm in the area I will definitely be back! read more

After I reported the issue, the restaurant reached out promptly, apologized and took responsibility for the mistake. They addressed my concerns and offered compensation for the inconvenience. Though I was disappointed before, I appreciate the team for the way they handled the situation. Thank you ! read more

The Stand serves up some comfort food, nostalgic of a good ol' burger, shake, and fries but with modern offerings for the health conscious eaters as well. There's something for the whole family. Sides 5/5* All the sides were delicious - Mac n Cheese with its cavatappi noodles, crispy Stand Fries, Fire Fries with a spicy kick, and unlimited complimentary pickles. Short Rib Gilled Cheese 5/5* SO delicious! Cheddar cheese grilled into the bread until crispy on the outside, gooey and melty inside, paired with savory shredded short rib. It came with ranch sauce but was so good on its own, it didn't need extra sauce. French Onion Soup Burger 2.5/5* Just ok in my opinion. The burger overall and patty didn't have much flavor, even though the patty was cooked perfectly medium rare. The side of french onion au jus was too salty. It was missing some veggies to balance everything out. I probably wouldn't get this burger again, but would try one of their more balanced options. Puri Puri Chicken Bowl 4/5* Looked great on the menu screen and was a new item, but didn't really look like the picture when brought out. It's a healthier option and was refreshing. The red sauce is pretty spicy if you don't do heat well. It might be the same sauce used on the Fire Fries. Customer Service (for the cashier) 5/5* The cashier, Christian, provided top notch customer service. He walked us through downloading The Stand app, apply our coupon, and was so patient, assuring us we had nothing to worry about when we said we didn't want to hold up the line. The servers though, were just doing just that, without anything extra. One of the servers even messed up our order and we were missing an extra side of fries, which we had to get directly from the kitchen. The kitchen, though, is extremely slow. Be prepared to wait 20-30 mins for your food. The ambiance is real casual. You order first, and the servers bring out your food and clean up afterwards. They seemed short staffed at the time so a lot of tables were still full of trays. There's a ton of TVs that were playing the game at the time, so good spot to watch the game without the crazy crowds. read more

Ordered delivery from the Valencia store and the whole experience was great. It arrived timely and warm, and everything was well packaged in the bag and containers.The hardest part was just picking what to eat! The jerk chicken was moist and packed with flavor. The plantains, pickled cabbage, and red beans and rice complimented the meal just right--and the delicious sauce was even great on my onion rings.The flavors and textures are amazing. I will definitely be working my way through the rest of the menu! read more

Came to have lunch and I'm so glad to have this new place at the mall. I like their option and healthier choices. I really like how they give you sauce on the side instead of having the bottles of sauce out. It's very clean and tables are spaced out enough for easy moving. Service was very friendly and helpful with suggestions. read more

Not really sure why this place gets nearly 5 stars. I literally can in here biased on the positive reviews and was severely let down. The menu looks good and I really enjoy burger places so why not here ? I orders The Stand Burger for myself and others in our group ordered the same along with a Turkey Burger. Also got me a Cookies n Cream Shake and a "large" fries. I was asked by the cashier how I like the burgers cooked and I said well - no pink. The food was brought to our table and I was excited to try this out. The drippy burger tasted fine at first but after taking a look inside I saw it was completely pink thru out. I checked with my other peeps at the table and they had pink pattys too. Ugh. Why ask how I want it cooked if you aren't going to even come close. Also I ordered the "large" fries because it was basically double the price of a regular so I would split it at the table. Well let me tell you, my large looked just as small as the regulars others got in my group. My photos back this up. So now I really feel like I'm just getting poor service here and ripped off. We were really hungry so we ate what we could and wanted to just get thru the meal. The Cookies n Cream shake was the only thing they seemed to get right during my experience. Service was not great, While I was telling my order to the cashier another worker just walked over and interrupted us and then the girl taking my order just walked away. The guy taking orders on the next register then began helping the customer behind me. Like what the heck. Am I invisible. My cashier cam back and was like ok what did you want ?? Wild I tell you. With sooooo many burger places in SCV I will gladly go elsewhere for a good properly made burger. Heck some places give you unlimited fries and everything instead of charging double for a regular size side order here. read more

We've now tried this place a few times, and this will be our last. We arrived at 8:30 PM after watching Game 1 of the NBA Finals. I was craving a milkshake, and well, that was the only thing that was right. It took well over 20 minutes to get a dry, cold kid's burger that was dried out and had no onions as ordered, as well as a hot dog and some onion rings. It looked like we were an inconvenience to the workers there rather than paying customers. My wife had to go up and ask for our food after 20 minutes, which seemed to be just sitting behind the counter, wasting away. They claimed the hot dog bun broke. Really? A 20-minute wait for all this in a near-empty restaurant? This is the second horrible experience we've had there, and dare I say it, our last. read more

Let's start with the food. It is absolutely amazing, but what impressed me the most...we ordered our meal for pick up, we didn't catch that we were missing an item. This restaurant did catch it and refunded us for that item. We didn't have to call or anything. We understand when a restaurant is as good and busy as this place was....I'm very impressed. read more

Still five star food and service. Great marketing as they sent an email out about buy one get 1/2 off for Mother's Day so who could pass up a great French onion burger for Mother's Day? So easy to order on their app and the to-go service is accurate and always hot. By the way, I love their pickles. Don't forget to pick some up near the register. They also have very yummy chocolate chip cookies and brownies for a special treat. Someday I'll try their shakes. read more

Took my kids to Billy Beez and after running around and sliding, they got hungry, so it was time to find something to eat! Of course, I checked Yelp for a good place to eat around and I found this place! It was pretty busy, but only a couple of people were ahead of me waiting in line. Their menu consisted of hamburgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, fries, milkshakes, and salads. Everything sounded so good, I had wanted it all! I ended up ordering a Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. The sandwich comes with marinated grilled chicken, fire sauce, stand slaw, ranch, stand chips, and a gourmet brioche bun! I opted for a gluten-free bun! It was so amazingly good! The spicy sauce was so tangy and had the perfect amount of spice. The stand chips added a tasty and crunchy texture! The fries were also really good! I can't wait to try more of their menu! read more

I stand with the Stand. This place is the spot for a tasty burger. I love the jalapeño bacon burger. It has a great kick and is so flavorful. We love it here because my wife and daughters have food allergies, and they are allergy friendly. Anytime we're in the area, we make sure to stop here. The onion rings are nice and crispy with lots of flavor. There's plenty of seating. It's a vibe. read more

My favorite go to place ! Especially when I don't want to cook at home. I love the cucumber water ! So delicious on a hot summer day

Came here for an early dinner on a Sunday during are mini roadtrip back home. I had seen the chain of restaurant in the past and have been meaning to try out the food. Food looked really good on the reviews and they had over a 4.0 on stars. There was no wait line and the restaurant was empty so plenty of space to dine in as we did. Ordering was quick, but when we went to choose for a spot to sit at, which a booth would have been preferable.... We did not have that option. Every table booth was not clean! Leftover trays and un-sanitized tables. We couldn't even find a napkin dispenser to clean the table ourselves. We had just grabbed leftover clean napkins left from a guest at a previous booth. We waited about 10 minutes for our food order, but the food was delicious just as expected from the reviews. I tried out the BBQ Brisket Sandwich, no modifications. At first I was kind of iffy of the pepperonis but gave them a try and it was not a disappointment. The brisket in the sandwich was tender and not whatsoever chewy or tough to bite. BBQ sauce was on point just the right consistency with the coleslaw in the sandwich. My husband agreed his Ultimate Egg Burger was good just a tad to much of the Aioli sauce since it empower the meat patty flavor, he just likes his red meat flavor. Our fries and onion rings were perfectly fried nice and crips no sogginess or floppy fries. I do want to advised everyone that there are no options of combination meals orders. Everything from sides to drinks are sold separately from sandwiches/burgers. Place is fairly small and very limited on tables of 6 guests. I would have given this place a 5 star if it wasn't for all the leftover trays on empty tables/booth tables there was even dirty tables visibly on their outside patio. The person that brought our food order to our table was friendly & welcoming, however the clerk that took our order seemed checked out mentally for the day her emotions seem tired of being at work as she waved down her friend at a table for the for the time of day in the clock and her friend mention "ten more minutes" as the clerk replied back to her with a thumbs down and tired face. read more

Generally I prefer to support independent restaurants than chain restaurants but the stand - across any of the locations I've been to - has always had great service and similar quality of food. The store itself has a bit of a modern burger joint vibe that is pretty nifty. All of their options are great but my favorites are their blue burger (rip, you can order it still though) and their fire fries (spicy). read more

The stand is serviceable but really nothing too exciting. It is quite expensive unless you use the app which helps some. It is good, not great. The restaurant is clean and the service was good. It is located at the mall so parking depends on the business of the mall. The food is okay but didn't really have much flavor and seemed undersized for the price. Others I know love it! So try for yourself! read more
