“I'm not someone who craves American food every day, but every now and then, nothing satisfies quite like a great crafted burger.

Back in the 1990s, neighborhood burger joints were everywhere. Every town seemed to have its own local favorite, where burgers were grilled to order with unmistakable character. Those places made crafted burgers one of my all-time favorite comfort foods. Unfortunately, as national chains steadily expanded over the past two decades, many of those independent burger shops quietly disappeared. Finding a true old-school burger joint today feels almost like searching for a hidden treasure.

With that nostalgia in mind, I visited The Stand hoping to rediscover some of that magic. We ordered the restaurant's Stand Burger, the Ultimate Egg Burger, and the Chinese Chicken Chop Salad.

Let's start with the positives. The ingredients were fresh, the presentation was appealing, and everything was prepared with care. The Chinese Chicken Chop Salad was particularly enjoyable, offering crisp vegetables, well-seasoned chicken, and a balanced dressing that made it more than just a side dish.

The burgers, however, left me wanting just a little more.

As someone who has very high expectations for crafted burgers, I'm looking for that unforgettable first bite—the smoky aroma from the grill, the rich beef flavor that fills your mouth, and a juicy patty with enough personality to stand on its own. While both burgers were certainly well above typical fast-food standards, they didn't quite deliver the depth of flavor or distinctive character I associate with truly exceptional crafted burgers.

To be clear, this isn't a criticism of quality. These are good burgers, and they're unquestionably a step above the mass-produced offerings of traditional fast-food chains. But for me, they still carry a level of consistency and polish that feels closer to a well-executed franchise concept than to a neighborhood burger shop with its own unique identity.

Of course, taste is deeply personal. My expectations are shaped by years of searching for those unforgettable local burger joints that seem to be disappearing from the American dining landscape. Someone looking for a fresh, satisfying, and consistently well-made burger will likely leave very happy. Those chasing the nostalgic, one-of-a-kind flavor of a classic independent burger stand, however, may come away wishing for just a bit more soul.

In the end, The Stand succeeds as a polished, reliable modern burger restaurant. It simply didn't rekindle the memories of the handcrafted burgers I grew up loving—and perhaps that's less a reflection of The Stand than of how rare those old neighborhood burger shops have become.“

“Food is delicious 😋 and service is great 😊 we are going back again soon 😃“

“I was not expecting much just from looking at the place from the outside but I should know by now to not judge a book by it's cover. These Korean fusion pizzas were an incredibly delicious surprise. It is very spacious as we went with a pretty big party. This is definitely the new go to spot in this area. I can't wait to go back“

“Met a date here for dinner and drinks. Walter the bartender was especially awesome. He found us seats at the packed bar and took great care of us all evening, along with the other bar staff. We had a great time and were made to feel welcome.“

“Brisket is wonderful with the tri-tip a close second“

“Service is fast, food is good, price is fair“

“The food was genuinely life changing I plan on coming here often service took a minute or two however its very much worth the wait the rice is very good none of it was dry or half baked rice was also seasoned well the rolls themselves are very thick rolls with alot of filling the drinks were also good the soda tasts better then at other restaurants“

“Careful cause this food is addictive! Was introduced to this place by a friend and was the best pho we’ve had in years, not to mention the pork spring rolls, spicy Kani roll and salt and pepper wings! Great food you will not be disappointed!“

“We recently found this gem of a place and were warmly welcomed and constantly attended to. Now, mind you, this was on a Monday morning at 9:30am when most people are working; however, people should realize that weekends are much busier times for dining and plan accordingly! The atmosphere was awesome, warm and welcoming. We were attended to by no less than 4 different people making sure we were cared for; the food was very fresh (they have vegan options too) and the coffee was yum. When I heard the name of this place, I knew it would be fantastic; check it out and see what you think.“

“Love the owners, love the staff, love the food! Amazing place, everyone should stop by!“

“The seafood it’s really good“

“Great Food, Great Service, Definitely Going Back. Thank you Taylor who was my server for the wonderful SVC..“

“Great Happy Hour! Food & drinks good. Lots of easy parking.“

“The food is good....but the service cloud be more friendly. Its the only restaurant that I have been to that does not give out free water! I think that is outrageous and I probably will not be coming back. The cashier said their water dispenser was broken....fix it lady!“

“The food and the service are all very good! The server was very nice to us and our dog, oh yes they are super pet friendly restaurant.

The food not only taste are good also the potion are very big. It’s better to have 3-4 ppl to dine with!“

“Many gluten and dairy free options, didn’t get sick from eating here. Orange chicken was SO good!! The lady we spoke to was super knowledgeable about the menu and our allergies. Gluten free stuff is made to order- avoiding cross contamination in the bins. Will be back!“

“we ordered thru GrubHub this time and did pickup... I love their spicy ramen.. this place is a great place. 👍“

“Best noodles in Chino! 🍜 🙌“

“Buena atención Buenos precios Buen ambiente“

“Like many sushi restaurants this is one is quiet small, gets vey busy on weekends but that's because the sushi rolls, yaki and ramen are so yummy. I have to admit, the yaki could use more flavor but the sushi rolls are my favorite good portions and they give you a 10% discount if you pay in cash“

“In my opinion, Sushi Ojiya in Chino Hills, CA is THE best sushi around the area. We have been eating here since 2008.“

“The best fried chicken I’ve ever had, but I’m not convinced when you order a whole chicken that you really get a whole chicken because my wife and I cannot eat a whole chicken from anywhere else but we can eat the whole chicken from BBQ chicken… puzzling. I don’t really understand it.“

“The food here is absolutely delicious. They serve truly authentic Korean cuisine, and the overall food quality is top-notch. You must try the Mul-Naengmyeon (cold noodle soup), Bibim-Naengmyeon (spicy cold noodles), and especially the LA Galbi. The short ribs are cut thick, cooked to perfection, and the quality is noticeably better than other places. If you want to experience authentic Korean food in Chino Hills, I highly recommend this spot!“

“I have been craving to try boat noodle soup ($15.95) since I've seen it online. It is a blood-based soup so it's a dark brown but the taste is not noticeable. It comes with thin noodles, sliced beef, pork meatballs, green onions, pork rinds, Thai basil, and cilantro. They do have a Thai level of spicy and they do warn that they do not to re-makes of dishes.

I also got their pork jerky which came with a side of spicy fish sauce dip.

The staff is nice and the place is clean.“

“Kylah provided outstanding service during our visit. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. He had a great attitude, checked on us throughout our meal, and made the whole experience even better. Great customer service like his is why we'll definitely be coming back. Thank you, Kylah!“

“The walnut shrimp is amazing. Always been my favourite dish At the happy kitchen it's been the best ever had. Egg rolls and Kung Pao pork was delicious.. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“We dropped by this afternoon to pickup some lunch and fuel with our RV before heading to camp at Prado. Magic’s made us a couple of the most delicious cheeseburger combos we have had in a long time. Burgers were generous portions, as well as absolutely delicious and tasty. (We’ve had his Pizzas and Gyros before— both are excellent. ❤️)“

“Great place to go enjoy a football game!“

“excelente servicio, excelente calidad de los mariscos y el sabor realmente sí son estilo Baja. los súper recomiendo“

“food was good. so happy to find a Korean spot that's good around to SGV!“

“Love everything my favorite place to dine with my family . I recommend the yellow curry and pad Thai.“

“We had a birthday party aT Xavis and it was amazing. Crew was great, food was good and overall a great experience! If you are looking to have an event this is a great place to go!“

“Great food and even better price! I original went next door to get a hot chicken burrito but just for the burrito no side or drink was $17!!! I couldn’t justify it so I walked in here and had an amazing 2 item combo for $12 flat. The tangerine chicken was delicious normally order the unbreaded chicken items from places like this because sometimes it can be too much but the breading on this chicken was very little and had a great peppery taste. The bbq pork was my favorite I love that they served it sliced thin I don’t like when other places serve the huge chunks of meat here it’s sliced thin and it’s good quality. Left super full and satisfied they gave me a punch card for returning customers buy 10 combos Bs and get one free which is a nice gesture considering nobody else I’ve tried has done this. Definitely will be returning when I’m in the area. I gave the atmosphere 4 out of 5 cuz it was warm in there. Other than that great spot!“

“Easily best food in Chino Hills, such a good option for mediterranean and so worth the price. Very underrated and fresh meat with little wait time. The garlic sauce is to die for! My favorite is the chicken shawarma plate with two free sides: pickled beet salad and cucumbers yogurt salad.“

“Had Paella several places in Spain, Casa Juancho has topped them all! Best I have had!“

“Food was good, freshly made and’s portion size was good. It didn’t take too long to receive order, cashier brought it out to my table. Fountain drinks available, plus additional aguas frescas. Free complimentary chips and salsa. Family is clean.“

“Finally sat down for breakfast at a place that we frequent!!! We always drop by to get their frozen dumplings because they are great value for money but we’ve never actually had their other items. So happy to finally sit down for breakfast. The soy beancurd was pretty good value for money. The serving was huge! The sugar syrup was a little sweet but I can imagine kids loving it. The daikon cake was crisp on the outside and very soft on the inside. The sweet rice roll was really interesting. Love it! It was soooo filling though!“

“Love the delicious vegan options ! The Vegan Pho is incredibly delicious! 😃“

“The flour tortillas are delicious and homemade. I would recommend the carne asada burrito. I wouldn't recommend the bean and cheese burrito because they use canned refried beans. Overall this place is great and I always want to stop by when I'm in the area.“

“Food 4/5 - Ordered beef chow fun, chinese sausage/diced broccoli fried rice, braised crispy tofu w/ three delights, and crispy pan-fried whole flounder. Beef chow fun and the fried rice were delicious, both dishes have very good “wok-hei”. Crispy pan-fried flounder was also delicious, good crispy outside fry with the fish still being soft. There’s some soy sauce beneath the fish, but I’d like it to be served on the side so you can dip your fish pieces. Braised crispy tofu was good, tofu texture was very soft and the 3 delights (shrimp/fish fillet/octopus) were fine.

Price $$ - Price is good for the portions that were served. The plates might look small, but they have depth.

Service 3/5 - Service is average, we needed to flag down a server to refill our drinks.

Atmosphere 4/5 - Interior is good with Chinese themed decor.

Overall - Had a pleasant experience and would visit again.“

“the Pub burger is 🔥 Rene our waitress was so sweet and kind❤“

“Tasty dishes.

First time here with family.

The establishment is pretty much self-service based with a large open dining area with communal tables in the middle and two seat booths along the side walls.

Ordered their combo dumpling bowl with hot & sour soup, pork chop, house noodles, mala spicy beef noodles soup, and oolong milk tea with Bob and pudding.

Place order via kiosk. It was easy to navigate and see what the dish you're ordering looks like.“

“Ordered takeout during the holidays and the food was ready to go at the agreed upon time. The staff were very thoughtful and kept the fried dish uncovered in the to-go bag to maintain the crispiness. After the car ride home, it was still crispy and yummy. Overall the food was pretty good and a hit with most of the people. Some of the dishes were a bit salty, but that was expected from this type of establishment.“

“While you seat and eat, theirs a bomb view of inland Empire Mountain on their patio. The food is so damn 🤤 delicious..I will be letting as many people I know that this is the place to eat. With overall great service. So if I where I'll be making away to get myself some Roll-em-up Taquito. Blessup“

“IM SO SORRY TO THE WORKERS THAT SERVED US!! One had brown hair with bangs (female presenting) and the other had a wonderful curly mustache (male presenting) and yall served us after close. They were so sweet and wonderful. I hadnt even realized they weren’t open, I’m so sorry again.“

“I just ordered about 80.00 bucks of food for 2 people and not sorry about it! Everything is delicious. the beef satay was remarkable. over sized spring rolls, Pad Thai very good. nice people serving. calm atmosphere.“

“It's not the best pizza I've ever had but it's VERY good for a local spot and intend to come back. It's not a knock against them that I gave them 4 stars, I'm just a deep dish kind of guy but the service was great, the pizza was really good. The sourdough crust was perfectly crispy and the cheese/sauce ratio was perfect. Definitely coming back.“

“Excellent service with fresh foods“

“We love this place. Is the most authentic without going to 626. My parents live around and each time we visit we go there for brunch. Service is great, people need to understand how is the dim sum restaurant service is, is not a regular restaurant. You order, eat and go. That is the same custom as in Hong Kong and Guandong.“
