“Here’s the revised version with improved grammar:

"I love The Stand! This location has been around for over ten years. They offer both indoor and outdoor dining, which is nice depending on the weather. I like the concept of ordering at the counter and having the food brought to you, which makes it perfect for groups.

They also host school fundraisers where they donate a certain percentage back to the school.

I ordered the Blue Burger and loved the blue cheese crumbles. I’m not a huge fan of BBQ sauce, so I swapped it out for another one, and it was perfect. We also got a kids' meal, which included one side.

Everything at The Stand is à la carte, so if you want fries or a side salad, you need to order it separately."”

“My family and I had a great time last night celebrating my cousin birthday Latonya!! The food and drinks was good!!”

“Reason for visiting: cousin's birthday dinner

Date/time of visit: Saturday night, 7:30 PM

Parking: they offer valet (not sure how much it is) but you can park on the street (along Rubio) or Ventura for free (meters are off on the weekends)

Party size: 5

Environment/ambience: pretty loud inside (sometimes couldn't hear ourselves talking); mixed crowd but mostly younger (teens and 20 somethings). Didn't see any TVs inside; restroom was pretty clean. Seating was tight; it was a table for 4 but we squeezed a chair. They were busy all night so probably best to make reservations.

Service: was great; very friendly and offered suggestions. Came around often. Offered them one of the desserts we brought, they took off a couple items from the bill ?

Food: everything was great; had the Blue Fin and Salmon Belly handroll, spider roll, Katsuya Sake, beer, mixed sashimi, Lobster dynamite, scallop cut roll

Cost: $390 with tip

Would I go back (yes/no): 93/7”

“Very good Lattes, excellent staff and service. Great variety of Toasts. Great addition to the Tarzana neighborhood. Hope the come to Pasadena in the future”

“I highly recommend because this place offers not only delicious pizza but also this place is very clean and spotless!”

“Always has been amazing and always will be. Been going here since I was a baby. Now we are bringing our baby 15 years later. Never cab get enough of Mulberrys. Thanks fam.

Parking: Further up side street there are no meters. Just parking signs.”

“Truly the best falafel I’ve had since I moved from NYC. And you know we take our falafel and pizza very seriously ��”

“Fairly mid, especially for the price. The food was just ok but priced the same as restaurants with better tasting food. The beef koobideh had a very loose consistency and not flavored with the typical seasonings I'm used to but not bad. Hummus was absolutely flavorless, though. Steak wrap was good. We got 2 wraps from the 1 order and I'm not sure if that's just how it is or if we just got charged for 2. The rice was very tasty. In any case, the food was ok and service was good. Probably a one off for me but I can see someone else enjoying it more.”

“Highly recommending, their best seller, TRIPLE BERRY CAKE with their own French press coffee!”

“Traditional Japanese izekaya. Daily specials. A definite must try.”

“Best sushi and amazing service!!!”

“This is the real deal. Authentic French pastries with Persian flare. fresh delicious. The cream puffs are awesome. The tarts add made with real custard, and are my favorite.”

“I stumbled upon this hidden gem on the 2nd floor of the 16133 yesterday. The lunch panini was a healthy fill me up and they had all the essentials with such an inviting atmosphere. The service was spectacular. Don't miss out and go up to what feels like lunch heaven!”

“Great food as always. Fresh fish.”

“One of my favorite locations. Spacious yet cozy if you wish to stay and sip and snack. Plenty of outlets if you wish to stay and recharge or work on that epic novel. Clean and well organized, with friendly accommodating baristas who provide fast service. An abundance of outdoor seating as well. Aaaand prices lower than at some much inferior locations (see my review on the Valley Village 4800 Laurel Canyon location). Aaaaand plenty of parking! Aaaaaand a drive-through! C'mon now!”

“Ever since the pandemic, this has been a staple in our diet. The Chinese chicken wrap is incredible. Pro tip - add hot white rotisserie chicken, light white pita and get a cheeky extra Chinese sauce! There have been a couple times that I unfortunately got the wrong wrap, or forget the extra sauce, but other than that pretty solid. Parking out back, or feel free to pick up curbside. They used to allow dine in but it looks like its just take out shop.”

“Quick Service Very Friendly / Good Customer Service”

“amazing and delicious”

“This location is on point! The unsweetened tea always hits the spot and made just right-never too strong or watered down (used to go to Duncan and Starbucks for unsweetened black tea, but is was always made inconsistently). My food orders are always correct even with modifications, fresh and hot. The staff is always greeting you with a smile and so friendly.”

“THE DRIVE THRU WOMEN IS NICE AND REALLY HELPFUL!THE CASH REGISTER GIRL WAS VERY NICE AND REALLY PLEASENT HELPED ME PICK OUT THE RIGHT FRAPS SHE SHOULD DEFINITELY GET A RAISE THE COFFE SERVER GIRL WAS VERY PLEASE T ALSO!LOVE THIS STARBUCKS LOCATION WILL ALWAYS RETURN!

“I have a Filet-O-Fish, once a year. I came in on a Friday (so I knew it was gonna be hot and fresh), had that $2.99 promo going on. I used the app, got a medium fry for free with any $1 purchase. They were hot too. Not a bad yearly treat for $3.27.”

“Do you know the phrase, "there are plenty of fish in the sea"? Well, when it comes to fish tacos- La Grigiata is the ONLY FISH in the sea! What can I say, they make fantastic fish tacos.

Parking: The truck is conveniently located right outside of a post office. Easy to run up and grab some grub!”

“Chicken panini is great, especially with jalapenos. Great bread. Friendly couple running the place. Everything made fresh to order. Can get hectic at lunch time.”

“Had a great experience here!! Came here with my 18 month old son, and the barista was so kind in giving the best recommendation for a smoothie my son would like. I did not get his name, but he was very educated and friendly. My son absolutely loved the smoothie and finished it all! Anything to get my picky eater to eat some greens! I also loved the smoothie I ordered, very delicious and healthy. We will definitely be back.”

“If you haven’t been to a Baskin Robbins lately, I highly recommend going there. The Baskin Robbins in Encino is great. The staff is amazing. I am always warmly greeted every time I come into the store. It is super clean and they have an amazing assortment of Cakes, ice cream, frozen bananas, and tons of other amazing tasting treats. The people who work there make the environment, warm and friendly and make you wanna come back time and time again. I cannot stress enough that if you haven’t been in here lately, it’s time to come back.”

“My friend took me here for my birthday. It's been years since I ate here. Food and service was great. With the deals they have it was cheaper here than most fast food restaurants. Will definitely come back.”

“Good stuff! Philly Classic. If you want everything on it, make sure you order the right one. I had a Philly Cheesesteak in NY, right off a street cart and it had everything on it. I guess that's why I thought a Classic had everything.
Regardless, this place was great!”

“This is a Too Good to Go Review:

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fat Sal's, and it was an unforgettable experience! I ordered the "Fat Jerry" sandwich, which is a glorious masterpiece packed with ribeye steak, chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, a fried egg, crisp bacon, grilled onions, melted American cheese, and fries. Each bite was a delightful explosion of flavors, and it truly lived up to the hype.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is incredibly cool, with a great design that perfectly complements the laid-back vibe. It's the kind of place where you can easily relax with friends or enjoy a casual meal after a long day.

While I did find the prices to be a bit on the high side, I can assure you that the food is absolutely worth every penny. The quality and taste are simply outstanding! The staff were also fantastic—super friendly and helpful, making the whole experience even better.

If you're looking for delicious food in a fun setting, look no further than Fat Sal's. I can't wait to go back and try more of their amazing menu!”

“A wonderful place to come in and eat always greeted with a warm smile by my friend Alfredo when coming in. We absolutely love when he is here to receive us with a smile it really makes our day!”
