Love this location! Lots of indoor and outdoor seating and very pet and animal friendly. I love the make your own salad option in which I can choose my lettuce, dressing, and 6 toppings. The urban fries are my absolutely favorite & come out perfectly crispy & hot. This spot never misses! My family loves to grab a bite to eat here & then explore the fountains area! read more

Jacks Urban Eats - Salad & Urban Fries - American Near Me - Roseville, California

I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately my stomach had other plans. About an hour after eating the steak bowl, my digestive system declared a full-scale emergency. I've never seen food move through me with such speed and determination. Let's just say the bowl made a return appearance faster than I expected, and it wasn't pretty. To be fair, there are currently public health warnings about certain produce, including vegetables, berries, and cilantro, so I can't say with certainty what caused it. If any of those ingredients were involved, that could be the culprit. Either way, this restaurant should take a hard look at its ingredients, suppliers, and food safety practices to make sure everything they're serving is fresh and safe. The bowl tasted fine going down, but the aftermath was unbearable. I hope this was an isolated incident, but no customer should be spending the next hour making emergency trips to the bathroom after a meal. I sincerely hope the restaurant investigates and ensures their ingredients are safe, because this experience was one I'd rather never repeat. read more

I was dropping off a return at Whole Foods during my lunch break and decided to stop in to get a salad. There was a line of people waiting to order but the line moved fairly quick. I ordered a create your own salad with mixed green, turkey, ranch, corn, broccoli, carrots, sunflower seeds, egg & edamame.... Overall the salad is always fresh, hearty and tasty - I also got a side of Mac and cheese as I can't resist. I did end up taking this order to go as there we no seats anywhere in the restaurant, this location seems to be consistently busy which is good!! The parking is a situation as this is an outdoor mall- I noticed multiple door dash drivers parking nearby behind parked cars and in no parking areas as they ran in to get the food - that als causes more of an issue but not Jacks fault!! read more

In the 15+ years that I have been eating "Jacks Urban Eats" (at a variety of locations), my experience has always been good but not great. Truth be told is what I find surprising is that there just isn't an abundance of fast-casual restaurants that carry a ton of salad options. You have popular places such as "Panera Bread" as well as major supermarkets such as "Nugget", "Whole Foods", and "Raley's" (with create-your-own salad) but not much else. At least in the greater Sacramento area. Which takes me to Roseville; specifically "The Fountains @ Roseville" where this place has been around since 2012; four years after this upscale strip-mall officially opened. This is one of two locations in Placer County with the other being on Douglas Blvd in Granite Bay. For those that have been to a Jacks Urban Eats, the ordering process is confusing as the line snakes around and eventually when you get to the register, that is when you place your order. I remember previously when you used to write on a card of what type of salad you wish to order. Well, unfortunately they did away with that as all build-your-own salads are done electronically through the register. Not a fan of this method but it is what it is. During my most recent visit (which was on Sunday 7/27/2025 at around 1:40pm), it was packed to a capacity. Since this area was getting unusually cool weather (for July), this brought a ton of foot traffic into this place. After making my way to the register, I ordered their "Tri-Tip Plate". This was tender slices of their signature tri-tip while I decided on mashed potatoes & gravy, market vegetables, and chipotle-mango BBQ dipping sauce. My +1 went with a "Steak Salad" which uses mixed greens, bleu cheese, sundried cranberries, rosemary croutons, red onions, and balsamic vinaigrette. After paying the cashier, we both get numbers and proceed to the outdoor patio area (which is quite spacious) and enough room to accommodate at least 30-40 customers. Even though it was very busy, both our meals came out in about 7 minutes. As for my tri-tip, it was seasoned and tender but not a whole lot of flavor. Dipping it in the BBQ sauce made a huge difference but still just a 6/10 for me. My mashed potatoes were delicious but not piping hot and almost borderline lukewarm. The veggies were tasty though as this overall plate was just average at-best for me. As for her salad, there just wasn't a whole lot of steak in it. Which is disappointing since this was nearly $16 (after tax). Therefore, if you're looking for a solid salad, I would try "Garden of Eat'n" (only a mile away) as well as "Saladworks" in Lincoln. Overall, "Jacks Urban Eats" is decent but not a place I would go out of my way for. The employees here work their tail off so quality control might be an issue on days when it is super busy. But the restaurant itself was clean while the food was fresh. When you factor in the prices (which are a bit on the higher side), cozy ambiance, and slightly above average food, I am going to give The Fountains @ Roseville Jacks Urban Eats just an average three-star rating. read more

Jacks Urban Eats - BBQ Chargrilled Tri Tip Plate w/Mashed Potatoes and Mediterranean Vegetables - American Near Me - Roseville, California

Great place for a healthy quick lunch or dinner. Also really helpful and kind employees!!

Great service! I ordered the Turkey Plate. Wonderful mashed potatoes and gravy. Turkey was one 5 inch piece of white meat and a pile of Turkey scraps. Strange! The cranberry relish needs to be redefined as cranberry "syrup". Side of chicken tortilla soup had no tortilla chip stripe and literally no chicken. Hmmmm....if I eat here again, I think k i will order a different menu item. read more

Always liked Jacks, an pleased with daughter's choice to go here. There were 6 of us plus baby and squeezed around a table inside. I ordered the make your own salad which was great. Pick your own lettuce, 6 topping. We had sandwiches of different types. Everything was good accept the fries were Luke warm, even the garlic fries. This was disappointing. Service was fairly fast, atmosphere was lively, slightly over air conditioned in our corner. We came after 1:30 so not as busy as it could be. Like I said fries needed to be hot out of fryer but they were not. Otherwise we enjoyed our lunch. read more

We came to Jack's Urban Eats on a Monday holiday and it was really busy. We arrived around 1:00, so the crowd was expected. I ordered the chicken Caesar salad with added red onion, my daughter got the mac & cheese, and we shared an order of Urban Fries. The chicken Caesar salad was good, but it could've used a little more dressing. The mac & cheese was unfortunately very bland no salt or real flavor which was a bit disappointing. Not sure if that's how it's meant to be, but it missed the mark for us. On the plus side, the Urban Fries were great and packed with flavor. We also had to sit outside, but the weather was nice, so that worked out well. Overall, mixed experience some hits, some misses, but still a decent stop depending on what you order. read more

Jack's is pretty much a go to for a lot of people shopping in the Fountains area. They have a great outdoor space that fills up quickly, as well as a decent interior space. This is a walkup order at the counter, and grab a seat. They will bring your food to your table. I can't say there is anything outstanding about the food here, nothing bad, it's more of the convenience and the outdoor seating that is the draw. read more

Last time I ordered a lg urban fry, they gave me a small. Today I got the lg I ordered, but there's hardly anything on it. The whole reason I order this instead of reg fries is because of the sauce. Very disappointing. read more

I've been to plenty of different Jack's Urban Eats locations and for the most part they're generally good. The jacks urban fries are always a hit although I wish they would've let us also add garlic to them but you have to get one or the other, can't combine. I usually opt to make my own salad. The steak and most of the veggies were really fresh. The broccoli had multiple pieces that needed to be removed as they had brownish/gray spots. They no longer have the Gorgonzola dressing so I tried the Green Goddess and it was a good flavor, light and fresh. The Mac n cheese was very bland I remember it having more flavor in my past visits. Overall good for a quick bite. read more

Jacks Urban Eats - MYO salad with steak. Ate it with fries :) - American Near Me - Roseville, California

TLDR: receipt in my food?? Food is always yummy at Jacks, the staff at this location were very nice, establishment was clean. It would've been 5 stars but during this visit the food ticket was tucked under my salad? majority was just to the side of the plate, but a chunk of the receipt was laid beneath some leaves of the salad. Wasn't that big of a deal, I've just never had this happen and this didn't occur to any of the other plates of food. So maybe they forgot to take it out for my salad? I dunno read more

Came here for a quick bite, before an appointment. I chose this place because no one was in line; perfect! As people start coming in after me, I'm watching my time and reluctantly asked about my order.

Craving something hefty but clean, Jacks Urban Eats will never fail you. At least not for us. It's my goto spot for when I a hearty and big salad. My favorite is the Western BBQ steak but I love that they have a build your own option. They have hot and cold sandwiches, tenders, pastas, and salads. A little bit to cater to everyone. A very family friendly place to eat. Something for everyone. It's a cafeteria dine in style. Order and sit down and they will bring you your food. Been to multiple locations and service is always fast! Everything always comes out fresh! That's what I love! Urban fries are always a must!!!!! Although I felt our order this time didn't have enough blue cheese lol, but that's alright it was enough. read more

I've been here twice. The first time I had a salad which was very good. The 2nd time I had a club that was horrible. The chicken was so dry and chewy. My two companions had the Rueben which had Russian dressing instead of Thousand Island. They both said their sandwiches were awful and they'd never go back. Sad. I was hoping it would be a good place to add to my list. read more

Food was great and service was better! Highly recommended this place. Staff was very attentive.

This is the first time i have been here in a while. It was lunch time on mother's day. The center was very busy and vibrant. The business was not very busy, which we thought was great. I ordered a double side of Beef Tri-Tip, and a side order of Turkey. I am on a restricted diet. Neither was enjoyable, and a few hours later my stomach was not well. The Tri-tip was very dry and looked cooked dry(well done). It was hard, Got the end which was even dryer. The meat was very hard to cut with a steak knife. They turkey as also very hard and dry. It appeared that they heated the turkey on the flat-top. Overall not good. I guess i won't be coming back. Booo-hooo read more

They got both of our salads wrong so both of us had to go to the counter for a missing ingredient. Plus, very small meat portions compared to other locations. I ordered romaine but was served mixed greens so I had to send my salad right back- which they blamed on the register/order person for "entering it wrong". Then it took over 10 minutes to get it back. Worst part? the server who carries orders out had his bare thumbs sticking INSIDE THE SALAD BOWLS that he was carrying. Not just mine, I saw him do it several times while I was there. Seriously, no tray, NO GLOVES, serving food, carrying your bowl with his thumbs on the INSIDE! YUK!! read more

My main complaint with this place is the employees. Almost all of the female staff look like they hate their jobs. Never a greeting at the register. Rarely a smile. The food is always good though so no complaints in that area BUT it is very pricey! read more

Love this place wish they would expand to Southern California. Their selection is excellent. Loved the build Salad.

I have ordered from this restaurant 3 time before. I ordered the chicken plate tonight. I was truly disappointed. All the items on the plate were mashed together. I couldn't even see where the chicken was. I will never order from Jack's Urban Ears again read more

Located in the Roseville Fountains, very popular and busy eatery, even for a weekday lunch time. Seems to be a very popular place for young folks to hang out and meet up! Food is fresh but the flavors of their sandwiches are a bit bland and under seasoned. Portion sizes are pretty small and limited, especially given the prices of their sandwiches ($13-15 w/o any sides). Overall, very expensive for the food prepared, nothing so savory that we'd specifically have a desire to go back. Urban fries were probably one of their tastier dishes, but even then the fries felt like they were defrosted and dropped in the deep fryer. They sell beers by the can, so there are decent drink options to go w/ your meal. Parking is in the Fountains lot which is reasonable. Servers are fast and friendly. read more

Service is always quick and staff is friendly. I ordered the steak salad and the steak was a bit dry and the red onions were cut quite chunky, I'm used to thinly sliced onions. My friend ordered the spicy chicken sandwich and really enjoyed it. And of course we had to share the urban fries, the best fries! Overall food was ok, we really came in for the fries which never disappoint. read more

I ordered turkey tortilla soup. It was an 8 oz bowl with not 1 piece of turkey in it. All broth except 2 tortilla chips You might want to tell who ever is serving this to make sure there is some turkey in it. For that cost that was ridiculous. I will never go back no value. read more

My boyfriend ordered the steak bowl, and everything seemed fine at first, but when he was nearly done eating (maybe 3-4 bites left), he noticed something odd mixed in with the remaining rice. It was a fully squished dead fly, completely flattened and embedded in the food like it had been there the whole time and got mixed in during assembly or cooking. We were both immediately grossed out especially from a place that prides itself on fresh ingredients. We flagged down a manager right away and showed them exactly what we found. She was apologetic and quickly processed full refunds for both of our meals, which we really appreciate. That said, finding a dead fly like that in the bowl raises serious questions about kitchen hygiene, pest control, and how food is handled/prepared. It completely ruined the experience for us, and honestly, it's hard to trust going back after seeing something so unhygienic. We were regular customers up until then, but now we won't be returning. read more

We have never been here before and was recommended to come by neighbors. The food was good. We had two salads. However, i am sure the owner is not aware that the employees sleep on their breaks in a booth while customers are right across from them eating? When questioned if it was an employee, the other employee said yes it is an employee and no one ever complaints. I am complaining! How could this be ignored! I asked to speak to the manager and it is now 15 minutes later and no one has come to talk to us. There is a separate table of employees having their own meeting right next to the employee who is sleeping. Shame on you! read more
