Urban Farmer was spectacular like always! We celebrated my best friends 24th birthday and the food was phenomenal. Our waiter, Andrew, was so nice and even gave us a few birthday surprises like this corn bread with a salty butter. There’s no better place to celebrate a birthday. Andrew was awesome!!

The food here is always super tasty, the drinks are lovely, and the service is friendly and unrushed. The parking at this location is always a bear, but it's worth dealing with for the brunch experience.

Divine food, unbeatable wine, and the service was outstanding. It was busy for their Wednesday wine pairing (a flight of wine, paired with a vinyl - tonight happened to be Billie Eilish) so the noise level was high– a buzz of energy. Just when you thought the music and wine were epic enough to set an amazing mood, the Iberico Pork Secreto and Wagyu Flank Steak absolutely took everything to the next level. Just an outstanding little gem in the middle of Union Station. We cannot wait to come back and bring more friends.
