First off, our server was wonderful. He was attentive, courteous, polite, and professional. But we ordered cocktails for 4 and it took roughly 25 minutes to get 3 of the drinks (2 beers and a glass of wine) and another 10 minutes to get the mixed cocktail. When the food came the hamburger had obviously sat for a spell as it was cold and the fries were no longer hot, crunchy, and fresh. It was evident that the other more complex entrées took longer to make/prepare so the hamburger was “waiting” for the other entrees to be completed. So overall, the dining experience was pleasant, but for the price $256 for the four entrées and two desserts, and four drinks,, not including tip, I think the service was a tad below standards.

The food was great!!! A lot of great options for brunch. But the drink prices were ridiculous (18$ for a beer! And no brunch specials) and the service was subpar. We really wanted to love this place for brunch but can’t justify the prices for drinks- especially for subpar service.

Enjoyed Urban-nice local restaurant. Servers are super friendly. But prices have gone up & not getting much value. At least try to compensate by having an optional bread basket. Something or coupons for neighborhood diners. People want to feel like they are getting something.

We usually always have a nice time there. Tonight was a very disappointing dinner experience. We order a warm caprese salad to share as an appetizer, our entree came before the appetizer, seams like the waiter didn’t put the order in for the appetizer…. Was brought without the bread, had to ask for it. Entrees came back out almost right away before we were done. Asparagus with the filet mignon were overly salted. Ordered dessert and a coffee… had to ask twice for the coffee….

When we go to Urban Grill we are always greeted kindly. It is a favorite spot which is close by to my sisters. The pork chop is the best and the wedge. Ask for the wedge chopped and tossed

First visit here for myself and friend. We started our dining experience with the Urban Flatbread. We both really enjoyed the Flatbread, and definitely recommend it. I had saw on an internet review that a patron had a Salmon entree, there was even a picture on the restaurant website. However, no such entree on the menu during visit. I had the Mediterranean Chicken. It was a generous portion, however the chicken was not properly cooked, more on the dry side. My friend had the Scallop Risotto, which she really enjoyed. We were a bit surprised at the price $43 (for 4 scallops), a bit on the high side. The server, Corrin, was pleasant and attentive. We did not order any drinks, just having ice water. The total tab with tax and tip was just north of $117.

We were greeted so nicely and got a high table in the front area. It was dimmed lighting and just right for my husbands’s birthday. The mai. Reason I’m writing this is because we had a waiter/bartender + everything else he did, Jacob. I can’t say enough about this man - great service , fixed a minor food problem - sang to my husband, gave him a free dessert - and WAY More. Food ended up being exceptional - scallops - wine was best and he actually recommended the cheaper one!! There wasn’t anything this guy wouldn’t do - he normally works the lunch schedule but he should be the dinner dude for sure. Jacob, thank you for all you did to make it such a special night.

Have always had a good experience with service and food. Disappointed with the stir fry entree. Mostly peppers without much variety.

I had never been to this restaurant. The food was excellent & so was the service. Our waiter was so nice. We had the mixed berry cobbler for dessert. Another winner. I wish I lived closer to this place.
