    Wonderful lunch! As always the food never disappoints. The soup wasn't my favorite, more of a texture issue (felt like a bowl of marinara). But the wrap in the sandwich were delicious and as always, the brussels sprouts can't be beat. Atmosphere is always amazing and the service is always wonderful.

    A return visit. At a golf course / country club setting so parking easy. Well received and seated. Server was prompt and efficient. Wife and I opted for the steak sandwich for a midweek dinner. Went with the perfect roasted Brussels sprouts and a salad. Steak sandwich was lean and cooked to my liking. Easy night so only drank water but a very professional bar service is available. One of our treats that we will return to

    Shrimp & Grits.

    After a bad experience here for my birthday 2 years ago. I decided to come back to celebrate my birthday here on yesterday; August 7, 2025. Everything was FANTASTIC. The food. The server, Allie was so attentive and extremely nice and gave us great recommendations. Assistant General Manager Jon made sure we were comfortable and didn't charge me for my meal. He apologized for my previous experience and made sure we were comfortable before he left. Assistant Manager Sara; stopped by our table to make sure we were satisfied with everything. The drinks & food were PHENOMENAL. We will definitely be back.

    The restaurant is part of a golf course and the ambiance here is really quite exceptional. I loved looking out on the greens through the large glass walled dining room. First the good notes on the food. I had the bees knees cocktail and really enjoyed their house made gin and honey simple syrup. Our table shared the garlic parm fries and I thought they were great. I ordered the king salmon and I have to say it was not my favorite. I did not like feta cheese with my fish as I didn't think it complimented the dish well. Overall I wasn't quite thrilled with it although it looked better than I thought it tasted. As far as service goes, our server was decent but lacked any sort of personality and I wasn't overly pleased with her attentiveness. For instance, they brought me the wrong soup (which I ate) but when I mentioned it to her, she did not say anything about the mistake. I might try McWethys again to see if anything else is as good as I hope it'll be, however, it might not be soon.

    Beautiful view from our seat

The cabbage soup was very tasty: chunks of Polish sausage, cabbage, barley, minced vegetables. Delicious. Polish euro sandwich was interesting. Tasty combination of Polish sausage cheese inside a (homemade ?) Bun. Pierogies were fantastic; each one serve served with a bit of grilled onions. Pizza bread was a bit steep, as well as the soup at $8.99/bowl. With prices going up, can't blame them. Overall good food. Nice touches with the interior design. We look forward to returning.

Came in on a busy Saturday night after attending another event in the area. The bar was hopping and we snagged the last 2 available seats. At first, it appeared they had 4 bartenders, a manager, and a barback behind the bar. However, other than the barback consistently washing/unloading dishes I am not sure what was going on with the service. Manager was not providing any assistance to his staff. However, he was filling his own water bottle. Other staff were taking selfies with guests. It took awhile to order a second round as well as pay our tab. This was a one and done visit for me.

The waitstaff was friendly, helpful, and genuinely attentive without hovering. We started with drinks: blueberry mojitos and sangria. Both were fantastic. The flavors were perfectly balanced, refreshing, and it was clear they were made with real care and attention, not just poured and sent out. For appetizers, we ordered the chips with guacamole and salsa. We weren't expecting the chips to come out hot and clearly fresh from the fryer, but wow, perfectly crisp with just the right amount of salt. The guacamole tasted fresh and clean, and the salsa had a great balance of heat and flavor without overpowering anything. I ordered the birria tacos, and they were outstanding. The meat was incredibly well seasoned, tender, and full of flavor. You can tell when food is prepared by someone who truly cares about what they're making, those kinds of flavors can't be faked. The Cobb salad was equally impressive: fresh ingredients, a perfect portion size, moist chicken, and a dressing that tied everything together beautifully. One of the nicest surprises was learning that Urban Kitchen supports the community through Meals on Wheels. It's always great to enjoy a meal knowing the restaurant gives back. The only downside? We live six hours away. That said, we will absolutely be back the next time we're in the area. Highly recommend!

Today we ordered a maple bacon milkshake, peanut butter milkshake, 1/4 pound grilled cheese burger on toast, 1/2 pound New Orleans burger and a shareable basket of parmesan truffle fries. Let's start with the positives, the shakes were well made and not overwhelmingly sweet and we liked that a lot. My husband's 1/2 pound burger seemed a little small and my grilled cheese burger said it would be on Texas toast but it seemed like it was sourdough bread and not really thick cut like Texas toast should be. I was looking forward to eating here because the pictures of the fries online looked long and thick cut, the basket of fries we got didn't look like that at all and lacked Parmesan cheese. The negative experience was the fact the water tasted weird. I took one sip and tasted a weird chemical taste but my husband and I didn't complain, we just paid and left. I don't know if it was the water or the cup but it definitely had a weird taste. Overall, the experience was ok. I think we had higher expectations seeing all the pictures online. The name of the place threw us both off because we thought it was a Latino owned burger joint with a Mexican twist but that wasn't the case at all.
