After seeing the menu online we decided to take a ride to Fairfield and check out The Stand vegan restaurant. So happy we did. They offer indoor & outdoor table service, take out and have a bakery as well. Everything from mock tails to dessert was totally on point. I started with a mocktail the blueberry mojito, so delicious with fresh blueberries & just the right amount of fresh mint. I moved on to the Casio e Pepe with eggplant Milanese. Whole wheat pasta dressed with just the right amount of “Parmesan” and three pepper sauce, topped with the crispiest crunchiest eggplant slices without a trace of grease to be found on them. Truely a wonderful elevated dish. I ordered a side of veggies in “magic sauce” a plate with summer & zucchini grilled squash slices and grilled asparagus arrived perfectly cooked and dressed in the magic sauce not sure what was in the sauce but it was the perfect compliment to the grilled veggies I loved it. My husband got the fresh veggie and hummus wrap veggies were nice and fresh wrap was super tasty. Did I mention they have wonderful desserts? I got a light as air lemon blueberry cheesecake just right citrus flavor light and fluffy not overly dense like many vegan cheesecakes I’ve had. My husband got the raspberry tart wonderful perfectly textured crust tart raspberries on top it was delicious! (Yes I snuck a taste) Seriously among the best of the best vegan dinners I’ve had. We will happily make the trip of over an hour to Fairfield again. The Stand is located just off I95 easy to find plenty of parking.
We had to drive there 30 minutes, but it worth it. The food is delicious. Portions are huge. Coffee (oat milk latte) was great. Our waitress was super cute young lady.
We have heard good reviews from friends and thought we would try lunch here. Not vegans, but my friend cannot have gluten. The food was great. Linda had vegan mac and cheese and enjoyed it. I had vegan grilled cheese with jackfruit, that was shredded and had a tasty barbecue type sauce. Also came with a side of celery and blue cheese. It was fantastic. They also serve beer and wine, but I tried one of the cool beverages. The atmosphere is comfortable and cozy. Best staff. Friendly and helpful with menue. Very clean. Will definately come back. Thanks Jenna and Team.
Was excited to try this place. I never review places but I was so disappointed I have to warn people. I’m not a picky eater, but sadly the burger I ordered was objectively subpar, and it came with only four fries that were not crispy and tasted like they had just been cut into wedges and baked with a bit of oil. The fry seasoning was good, but not good enough to carry the meal. The burger had a soft black bean patty that fell apart the moment I picked it up, and the blue cheese sauce was overly abundant, making for a very messy and unbalanced experience. The contents of the burger overall were very soft and unable to stay contained by the bun. I love food and really wanted to love this meal, especially because it cost $18 plus tax and tip.
Good food and relaxed environment. The miso kale salad was delicious and they make beignets over the weekend which are SO good!
Not a vegan or even a vegetarian but after one meal at this place, I might be converted. Had the skinny Buddha bowl at lunch, it was amazing - tons of kale unlike most kale salads/bowls I’ve ordered and so filling I didn’t even eat dinner. And that magic sauce is truly magic. Can’t wait to go back and try everything else! The service was great, friendly, had a great recommendation and even though I sat alone at a 4 person table on a zoom business meeting using the Wi-Fi for nearly 45 min before I was ready to order no one gave me a hard time or even batted an eye. If you wanna eat out/order in something super tasty, filling and healthy - this place is the answer to your prayers. Run, don’t walk.
Best Cleanse EVER!!!My colleague turned me on to their cleanses about 3 years ago. I am not going to lie, it was painful at first. I did the 3 day cleanse and if you are used to a lifestyle of food and spirits it can be rough but WOW if you can make it through the first day and a half you will be amazed. I was not a large person but the pounds added on over the years- doing this cleanse I would literally lose 7 pounds in 3 days and by the 4th day a total RESET happened! I now am down over 30 pounds and do their 2 day cleanse pretty much every month. Not to lose weight anymore but to feel like a million bucks! Like I said it is tough your first go around but in the end you will feel euphoric. It is my go to cleanse anytime I need a reset!!!
The food was excellent. I’m originally from New York. I just moved to Connecticut and I found this place for a brunch. It gives major soho… west village NYC vibes (but with parking!!!)
Wonderful staff and wonderful tasting food. 100% recommend
Had the GF banh mi sandwich. Incredibly delicious! Lovely to get crispy kale chips on the side as I was craving chips on my way to pick up my order. So happy that I stumbled on this gem.
