The Stand

This place is a hidden gem! Great fry bread and big portions! Tender meat, homemade fry bread and spicy green sauce. Very friendly folks who work there as well.A few things to keep in mind. This is a cash only place. 20 bucks will take you far here.Please remember this is a stand in front of someone's home, so the atmosphere is like your eating at a family BBQ. Parking is on the street or in the dirt. This is awesome spot for lunch and it's nice to get out of the bougie scene in Scottsdale. I encourage everyone to try this place and support local. Enjoy!

Literally a stand. Plenty of parking roadside, The Stand is surrounded by a couple other vendors selling jewelry and slushies to cool off. First time trying Navajo food and it was delicious Cash only!!!Red chili frybread - this was good, came nice and warm with tender beef chunks. Red chili is a mild sauce but very flavorful. Can get messy if you're eating with hands. Definitely filling Plain frybread - love how every culture has a fried dough. This was delicious alone and I can imagine it'd be great with some honey and cinnamon.Guava lemonade slush (from one of the vendors) - this was good, not too sweet and $7 for a big cup. Sitting there making a group effort to finish it all before it melts in 100+ F weather. A must visit if you're in the area, or even if you're not in the area. Local spot a bit removed from the huge city with good food. Really happy I could make it here to support.

Food was worth the 40 min drive! Extremely delish. The people were friendly. You could tell they have lots of regulars! There are other vendors on the land you can buy jewelry, lemonade and other things!Outside , pick up and go spot! They also sell red and white menudo! We will return!

The green chile beef was spicy & and delicious. lots of beef chunks that i can't wait to go back again, yummy.

Absolutely nothing bad to say about this Phoenix gem. The authenticity is present the moment you exit the 101. The people are so kind and helpful (shout out to Tony!) and the food was more than stellar. It is all outdoor (no seating) and cash only, and I went with the bean and cheese taco for $6. One of the local vendors in the parking lot was offering homemade banana nut bread for $5 which was heavenly. Will I be back? You're darn right...probably even as soon as this week!

Everything was soooo good. The owner was so kind and explained the menu. He introduced us to his family and then was quick to tell how he found a spot on Yelp. Stop. Good, reasonable, authentic fry bread.

I was eating at the Stand before it had a name, before it had a social media page, before it was "known."The consistency is the exact same, possibly better. Their red chili is the absolute best. I wanted to eat here everyday since I was visiting family from overseas so I missed it a lot. I ate as much as I could - red chili popover, bean/cheese popover, and my Mom had the taco. My favorite remains to be the red chili. It was weird seeing others there from different parts of the World...not just folks from the neighborhood. I was happy to see it and see them doing well and keeping it alive and true to the old school days. Keep it up!Go, if you haven't. This is how families in SR and GR make money. Food stands. Delicious food stands with homemade authentic eats. See you in a few years again!

The Stand was everything I was hoping it would be. Tasty food served in huge portions under the open sky. Worth the drive and highly recommend!

5 year anniversary of my first trip to The Stand. Sometimes you get romantic nostalgia over a place or experience, and when you go back it's just not the same. Not the case here, just as I remembered it, the food, the feel, everything, as if time stood still. Hope it's still the same if I make it back here in another 5 years.

We absolutely love The Stand! The service is amazing! The green chili fry bread is out of this world. We will always come here when we're in the Phoenix area!
