What People Are Saying About Stand

The Editor

Citysearch

Stand opened to much fanfare in 2007 but the buzz faded quickly, thanks to a too-hard bun and some peculiar gourmet sodas that nobody liked (rosemary, was it?). But after a change of ownership, the place has righted itself, adopting a soft bun from Amy's Bread that's dressed with olive oil and then grilled--the better to support a range of first-rate burgers, the beef versions of which are supplied by Pat LaFrieda, the city's reigning burgermaster. The shakes are handmade and popular too, particularly a marshmallow number that has garnered a devout neighborhood following. The place is spacious…

Appalling Service

by cdv2003 at Citysearch

My date never got his burger.

When mine came out they said his would be out in 5 minutes, then our server disappeared for half and hour. Then, he dropped the check off without apologizing--he shrugged and asked if we wanted him to check on the missing burger. I was dying to get out of there, but my date really wanted to try the marshmallow milkshake (he was still hungry).

It took 20 minutes for us to get milkshakes because the server got my order wrong and the shakes went to the next table by mistake. Service is sloppy and careless and no apology is unforgivable. The veggie burger was average; the milkshakes were was tasty, but nothing could make up for such appalling service. I will never return.

  • Pros: Milkshake selection, atmosphere
  • Cons: Service, service, service

Reasonable and quick eats

by belladiamondz at Citysearch

I dont eat meat, so I tried their veggie burger and salmon burger...the veggie burger was great, fresh and hearty. The salmon burger was a lil too salty for my tasting...(any my friends as well..) Their mashed sweet potatoes were a bit on the runny side, but the sprinkling of parmesean cheese on top made them scrumptious. They give you a couple of sweet deep fried pickels on the side which were pretty good as well.

But my favorite part of all was the yummy Kaluha Shake...I could not get enough of it! So rich and creamy and very filling...we had one and shared it!

  • Pros: quick service, friendly staff, delish alcoholic shakes!
  • Cons: feeling so full and bloated after a great meal

Not good service

by charlesxx at Citysearch

The waiter gave me a small proportion of the food. It took a little long for the food to come to the table but it was great. The food tasted great.

  • Pros: The food was great
  • Cons: There was a small proportion
