"We had heard good things about The Stand but didn't feel like driving, so we ordered via DoorDash. Everything was delicious, even after drive time! I had the Southwest Chicken Sandwich and my husband had the ABC Burger. Both were juicy, flavorful, perfectly cooked meat and perfectly toasted brioche buns. We also devoured an order of Sweet Potato Fries with ranch dressing...again, perfectly cooked. Lastly, we shared a Chocolate Chip Cookie and a Brownie. Both were soft and decadent, and a perfect end to our meal. It was excellent via DoorDash, and now we can't wait to try dining there as well. Great addition to Santee!"
"I love The Stand's Kids' Burger! It's the perfec size meal for me and I can get a Turkey patty. Cooked to perfection every time! The Stand fries are always perfect never greasy! Thank you for this option! Yummy lunch every time!"

"This burger is still one of my favs and Chili's didn't disappoint with how big the burger was. The brisket was tender, flavorful, and there was plenty of it between the buns. The burger was mouth-watering and satisfied my taste buds. The fries were crispy and Chili's cooked it perfectly. Will order again. By the way, you can share this meal with another. "
"I have ordered several different dishes from here & many times. I keep coming back to get delivery too, as I havent been disappointed yet. My favorite is the crispy chicken sandwich & the queso dip w salsa (comes with a HUGE bag of fresh tortilla chils to heal up & warm quickly in the microwave). I also love their potato soup & more recently the white cheddar mac'n'cheese. My Mom loves their chicken bacon ranch quesadilla. Everything is prepared well & always hot, fresh and crunchy. The only thing I didnt care for was the corn on the cob as it was a bit overcooked for my liking. Still 5 stars! "

"It was so delicious. I will ordering it again soon so I can do a review on tiktok. It was flavorful, yet not over powering. Even though the burber was well done, it was still juicy. The cheese was melted perfectly with the right amount of sauce, and mushrooms. The bacon I ordered on the side truly shined on it's own on the burger, but so did everything else. They all worked well. "

"SOOOOO good and they gave me extra chicken! the fries were kinda cold when they came but tbh it was still rlly good my go to order frfr "
"Our food was not only poorly made but it was incredibly overpriced for what we received. We asked for the 20 Wings to be cooked extra crispy and they were just rubbery skin and slimy Hawaiian sauce. Just gross. We ordered a large side of carrots and celery and got 3 thick carrot chunks and 3 pieces of celery for almost $7. Maybe it was just the worst employees working that night but we'll never order from here again."

"The chicken is so good. The seasoning is tasty, the chicken is crispy on the outside moist on the inside. I love the soft bun, the sauce has some sweetness to even out the spice, coleslaw is crisp & fresh and the pickles are the right amount of tang and crunch. Fries are perfect everytime. The portions are generous, this time I ordered 1 slider with fries and it was the perfect amount. Will be ordering again and again."

"The special for BOGO free Steak & Shrimp Duo was awesome! The meals were about $13 each with the discount which was less than our drive through lunch order of low quality fast food. It was the perfect portion and was delicious. If it was the full price I may have passed for another item on the menu but will d we'll definitely get this again with other side options they're all yummy! "
"It was pretty obvious it sat under a heat lamp or whatever they use for quite awhile. Salmon was dry, bread like a cracker, etc. With less than 50 percent success the last few times ordering, we've decided we won't use Black Angus again. It's not worth the disappointment for the price."

"The most dry chicken ever. The Large Tomatillo-Red Chili Salsa used to be spicy, now it's just water and tomatillos without any flavor. The rice tasted old. The only good thing was the steak. Worst Burrito Bowland worst Burrito ever. Going in person during the afternoon has never let me down. Maybe this is a staff issue."
