    Located in a shopping plaza. With plenty of free parking. I ordered the cevapi small meal, which came with 5 cevaps, lepinja bread, raw white onions, cabbage salad, kajmak, and ajvar. The halal cevapi were juicy, well seasoned, and cooked perfectly. The lepinja bread was soft and warm, great for building bites. Adding the raw onions gave it a nice sharp contrast, and the cabbage salad was fresh and light, which balanced everything out really well. The kajmak was creamy and rich, and the ajvar had that slightly smoky, peppery flavor that tied everything together. Simple ingredients, but everything worked exactly how it should. The place itself is clean and welcoming, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Food came out hot and fresh. Amazing Balkan food.

    Love it, outmost flavorful and filling. It's been awhile and here we are again. They don't have fountain drinks anymore but they have drinks in their drink fridge to choose from.

    + The Balkan (Bosnian) pizza was yummy, crunchy, and easy to eat. . I asked for side entrée recommendations. The clerk highlighted the Ćevapi (it's like a sausages sandwich). It was decent. I like that it comes with a variety of sides (onions and sauces). + Very friendly, helpful staff. + Decent amount of indoor + outdoor seating. + Pleasant ambience. + Ample free parking, but for some reason today (Saturday noon) was very crowded. . Though the pizza takes ~15min to cook, nice that there are nearby stores to walk around to pass the time. - The food was a lil exorbitant. Our total for a large pizza + a small Ćevapi was almost $40.

    Ćevapi are the best!

    I LOVE the ćevapi and pizza at this place. The ćevapi are some of the best, hands down, outside of Bosnia. (And I'm Bosnian so that says a lot!) They are consistently good, too! I've never been disappointed with them. The pizza is also amazing. It has a really good crispy dough and they have suho meso (smoked meat) as a topping which you honestly can't get anywhere else. The pita (burek and cheese phyllo wrapped savory pastry) is underwhelming, though. I wish they made their own dough for these. It makes a world of difference. The phyllo dough makes it very inauthentic, and is always doughey and undercooked towards the center. That is definitely taking a shortcut with pita and I wouldn't recommend that. Another downside is how dirty the bathroom usually is. They really need to have a better cleaning schedule here. This is a big turn off. Other than that, service is good and the usuals are consistently tasty so I will keep coming back for it. Oh, and everything is HALAL! So, a big win there!

    Came here for dinner and ordered a bunch of things to share. Cevapi -- delicious. I added all the condiments. I wanted a garlic component to it, like a sauce, so I added that to my leftovers and it was very tasty. The salad we ordered was also tasty. It was the Mediterranean salad. The pastry thing with spinach was good too. Sofra Urbana pizza was good too. Definitely want to come back again to try more.

    Great casual dinner spot. Went for dinner with some guys and i was excited to try halal Bosnian food for the first time. Overall the meal and experience were excellent. My friends are picky about their meat and the flavor in the Cevapi (Bosnian mini kabobs/sausage) was impressive to all of us and the bread with it was also fresh baked - this is the one dish to definitely try. We also had the Sofra Urbana Pizza and the beef prosciutto on this was also delicious. The Erko pizza and chicken wings we had were also good. Restaurant was clean and the owner was very friendly and kept the place open a little late since we were a larger group so we could enjoy and finish our meal. Will definitely be back to try again!

    Went there with my Bosnian buddy Sid right after the World Cup game with my Swiss jersey still on and was still welcomed :) and served a delicious dry meat/mushroom pizza and some other Bosnian specialties all super good.

    We've been craving cevapi since we visited Croatia last July and this place did not disappoint! Admittedly was better than the stuff we had over there. Service is also extremely friendly and the restaurant has a super cozy vibe. Will absolutely be returning!!

    Sofra Urbana is a true gem in Fountain Valley. I came here for the cevapi and it completely blew me away. I've had this dish in Croatia before, and somehow it was just as delicious--if not even better--right here. The meat was juicy and perfectly seasoned, the bread was fresh and soft, and the accompaniments tied everything together beautifully. It brought me right back to my travels. Beyond the food, the whole experience was wonderful. The restaurant has a cozy, welcoming vibe, and the staff could not have been friendlier or more attentive. You can tell they take pride in sharing authentic Balkan cuisine. The portions are generous, the flavors are spot on, and everything feels homemade with care. I've heard rave reviews about their burek, stuffed peppers, and desserts, and after this visit I can't wait to come back and try more. Sofra Urbana is the kind of place that makes you want to bring your friends and family so they can experience it too. If you're anywhere near Fountain Valley, do yourself a favor and stop by. This is hands down some of the best, most authentic food you'll find in Orange County. Highly recommend

    10 piece cevapi 9/10 As a Middle Easterner, I'm someone who prides themself in knowing a little something, something about spices in food. I never imagined European food could taste so good! This Bosnian/Albanian restaurant serves something you've never heard of but need to try: cevapi (pronounced chevapi) What I can only describe as explosively flavorful mini Kabobs, served in fresh baked warm bread, accompanied by a side of a mayonnaise like cream sauce with a non-spicy tomato salsa, cilantro, and red onions. The kebabs himself taste like a combination of ground beef, spices, and I suspected cilantro . The only thing missing was a little bit of spice, but I'm sure on my next visit. I can ask for a little pepper sauce. This is such a satisfying dish that I am willing to pay nearly $20 for the larger 10 piece cevapi sandwich. That time I didn't get the pizza, but I'm sure it was delicious . I'll be sure to try it again next time Try cevapi!

    Erko Pizza and Stuffed Peppers!

    I had Bosnian pizza for the first time today! I'm a gluten free guy and I've tried all the gf pizza available in OC. One of my new friends took me to get gf pizza and everything was delicious. You'll have to take my word for it, but you can taste the quality. The restaurant is charming with an urban vibe. Sofra Urbana Pizza Grill has amazing service and food. I'll definitely be going back soon!

    My first time having cevapi and burek! I've totally been missing out because this is delicious. Be prepared to wait 20-30 minutes for your food because it's all made to order. Comes out piping hot and crispy! Definitely will be back especially for the cevapi.

    Do the staffs wear face masks and gloves when handling the food orders?

    As far as I have noticed, they do. I have visited them many times during the pandemic and they have always been considerate of the situation

    Is the meat Zabiha Halal ( hand slaughtered meat) ? Please advise.

    When I was there, I remember seeing that it stated halal on the menu, so I believe yes.

With good pizza, you want three things to come together: (1) quality of ingredients & dough; (2) quantity or size; and (3) price. You want fresh and tasty, but not if it's a small pie; you want a large fresh and tasty pie, but not at too high a cost. RIIP does all three. Quality Price Quantity Only drawback is wait times for a table.... Either go at off hours or call ahead with 1.5 - 2 hrs notice. In the end, it's just a sign of their dominance in the pizza industry.

I think the star of the show for me were the wings and the fries. The pizza was great and I love that it had a sourdough taste to it, but the only issue I had with the pizza was that it was kind of salty but everything with the pizza was incredible. I love the texture, I love the style, I just wish it wasn't so salty. The fries were so incredible! I would come back for the fries itself and the hard cider was delicious! Service: Very amazing! They were very attentive to us, especially since we were a big party. The waitress noticed that we were squishing because we didn't really have enough legroom and once a party left, she put two tables together so we would have more room and it was just incredible service! Ambiance: pretty spacious inside and the decor was pretty cool. I would definitely come back to give the pizza another try!
