This place is the bomb! I'm so thankful downtown Pleasant Hill has a healthy option. Big shout out to Iris, she's truly holding it down there. read more

It's been a while since I've been back. The service was great! I was indecisive with my choices and the cashier didn't make me feel rushed, even when I changed my side order! The food was just what I was looking for. The ambiance was calming and inviting. Will be back :) read more

Amazing customer service, delicious food, and very clean establishment. Definitely coming back!

One of our favorite family spots!! During the pandemic, and even after, their family membership really stood out to us. Offering meaningful discounts on meals felt like they genuinely cared about helping families keep good food on the table, and that meant a lot. Their current Plate Pass still reflects that same thoughtful approach. There are always yummy options for everyone, which makes it such an easy win when you're feeding a group :P And do not skip dessert!! The flourless chocolate cake is rich, decadent, and absolutely worth it. The cookies too. Honestly, if you think you're too full, order them anyway. We always leave happy! :D read more

Urban Plates provided a great lunch for my office. The steak was tender. The veggies were fresh. Even the pineapple soda was a surprise hit. Thank you Urban Plates Team for a lovely lunch! read more

My mom loves coming here. Today, service was great. We both ordered their cage free chicken with the beet salad, mom got it with rice while I had Mac and cheese. Also got an additional shrimp for $5.50 more to entree. We got two dragon fruit drinks. Both the beets and Mac and cheese are my favorites. Can't go wrong with the Mac and cheese. We really appreciated staff coming around to check on us. Manuel came over a few times even brought us water. He was very attentive. My mom loves the outdoor ambiance. This is the only restaurant she likes seating outside. Thank you for making our lunch so pleasant! read more

Tried this spot for lunch and overall had a good experience. The service was great. I ordered the chimichurri steak, the sides were delicious and the sauce was excellent. The steak had good flavor, but it was cooked a little long. Could've just been an off day, but the place is solid and I'd still recommend it. read more

Urban Plates - Thai chicken soba salad, new item - Yum!! - Salad Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

Ordered a Caesar salad and strawberry basil lemonade for lunch pickup. My total came out to $26. The salad was decent, and the croutons were very good -- probably the best part. The chicken was subpar; it had flavor, but it seemed poorly cut and had too much skin. The lemonade was good and refreshing. Overall, it worked for a light lunch, but I don't think it's worth $26 for a salad. The rustic bread I got on the side was stale and chewy, which made it feel like an afterthought. read more

First time at Urban Plates with my brother. I was 100% satisfied with the crispy chicken sandwich that i ordered. I added buffalo sauce to it & it was the perfect spiciness it needed. The sandwich was crispy on the outside & tender in the inside. This sandwich was not too dry like other crispy sandwiches. One thing i would add would be lettuce as it only comes with couple slices of pickles. I paired my meal with the dragon fruit strawberry drink and it was soo refreshing. Im looking forward to coming here again to try other dishes! You order first & then find a seat. Your food is brought out to you. You grab your own utensils, napkins & condiments. It was a chill, calm environment. I really enjoyed the festive decorations that were up when i went. read more

Meh. Mixed results for the 3 people who ordered the steak plate. One had no seasoning and the other two were ok. Buffalo chicken sandwich was ok. Had to add my own sauce which was unexpected. Fries were decent. Portion were a bit small but enough for an ok lunch. Not likely to return anytime soon unfortunately. read more

I've always been curious about this restaurant having seen it while out & about in the area. I finally had the opportunity to try it out during a company luncheon, and I must say, "Wow!!!" Their focus is on naturally organic, grass-fed, etc. food that caters to health-conscious foodies. I love how you are able to create your plate according to your own dietary restrictions, or favorites. My plate consisting of grilled grass-fed steak, topped with a delicious chimichurri sauce, fresh steamed broccoli, and garlic parm mushrooms made it the perfect plate for me. The only thing that kept me from finishing it was that it was very filling... and that was without the bread. Although not everyone in our party got everything they ordered at once, their wonderful waitstaff went above and beyond to correct it and came back to check on us frequently. Overall, the restaurant is very clean & spacious. It is a great spot to work remotely over a refreshing glass of pineapple coconut lime replenisher, or bring the friends/family out for a great dinner before the movies, which is conveniently located across the street. read more

Had to come back and report how much I love their hummingbird cake, blown away by it honestly. It's not too sweet, the cream cheese frosting is amazing, and I love the pieces of walnuts, pineapple, and slight taste of banana 10/10. Their pineapple coconut lime refresher is also like the most amazing drink I've ever had. It has such a unique taste. & I've been loving their truffle fries. Thanks U.P for delicious staples, please don't ever take way the pineapple coconut refresher!! read more

DINNER: LAMB OSSO BUCO AND MANGO TART One night in February after my nieces' play at an elementary school our family came here for dinner. One dish that intrigued me was lamb osso buco. Osso buco is normally veal so I wanted to try that dish with lamb. For dessert I ordered mango tart. Anytime lamb is served at a restaurant I tend to order it. I also love eating osso buco. I set an expectation that I would love the lamb osso buco. However the lamb tasted gamey. The aftertaste after every bite made it difficulty for me to finish this dish. What saved dinner for me was the mango tart. It removed the aftertaste I ate from the lamb osso buco. I don't visit Pleasant Hill often. I can give this place another try. However my rating for Urban Plates is based off this one dinner. read more

A friend brought takeout to us from Urban Plates. Everything was delicious! Great salmon!!

Not enough food for me for the price. About five cut pieces of meat and the broccoli sprout were hard and chewy. The small salad was okay though. read more

We came here cuz we didnt have time to cook dinner. Our cashier, Bella, was really patient and attentive to our orders. We ordered blackened salmon with a side of mushrooms & caesar salad; surf and turf with beets salad & brussells sprouts. My salmon was good. The caesar salad however was not fresh was bit soggy and the lettuce had orange discoloration. Not sure if caesar salad should have tomatoes in it. My husaband's and our son's steak were overdone and cold. We dont make a big fuss since we dont want to waste food. We ate indoors. Table and chairs were clean and bot wobbly. Temperature s just right. read more

I ordered with Uber Eats. The order was ready on time for pick up, but when I got home this is what I got - less than 2 spoons worth of meat on a dish that costs $20. When I talked with Uber Eats they said the portions are determined by the store so they can't do anything, and the store says that they can't do anything because it's under Uber Eats, but that regardless they wouldn't have helped because that's their portions. read more

We were in the mood for salads and I had not been to Urban Plates since I had gone to another location where they did the cafeteria approach but it was a confusing set up. No such thing here - just order at the front and they bring your order to you. We had the grilled chicken cobb salad and the beet salad. Both were very fresh and the dlice of bread was actually very tasty. The grilled chicken was still moist and not overcooked . Solid place for salads. read more

Urban Plates - Chopped turkey salad - Salad Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

I went here with my family because of the gluten free options, which are fairly plentiful. We ordered a gluten-free item as a separate transaction on purpose, to keep things simple and minimize risk of cross contamination, as one of my family members has a serious condition. We mentioned this to the counter service worker. However, the food was served on the same tray as the other food, which had bread and other gluten-containing foods in close proximity. The food was fairly disappointing. My wife and older son both thought that their chicken was gamey. I've been on a "Cobb Salad Kick" lately, so I figured I'd try theirs. It didn't stack up compared to three Cobb salads I've had recently at other restaurants. There wasn't enough dressing, and the chicken wasn't that great. It didn't have that much going on. Disappointed! One other negative: I personally do not like the 3% "Living Wage" fee added. It seems odd when businesses do this. I would prefer a higher priced item, clearly listed on the menu, over what I consider to be a "sneaky" markup. It was mentioned on a little sign by the register, seen as I was about to place our order. The ambience is fine. Clean and casual. Counter service. read more

Tried Urban Plates for the first time on 4/21/26 and had the weirdest experience with a cashier named Michelle N. She was a combo of flustered, distracted and aggressive all in one. My husband has celiac and when he ordered his sandwich, asked to sub gluten free bread (not an issue), then she's extra loudly she's like "what else are you ordering?" while looking all around frantically even though the cafe was not busy and there was nothing happening to her right or left. My turn. I ordered the soup/half sandwich combo with tomato basil and turkey club. I asked if there were any other cheese options besides Havarti, and after we straightened out her confusion of what I was asking, without her even looking at the ordering screen she was like "ummm I think we have other cheese? Maybe like cheddar?" like she wasn't sure. I said if you do have cheddar, I'd love that. We pay, get receipt, order number and sit. I'm looking at the receipt and see that Michelle has incorrectly assumed that I am gluten free as well. Her notes were 'no rustic bread' and also no croutons on the soup. Also our drink order was not what we asked for. She didn't seem to be paying good attention to our ordering, and didn't ask any questions to get to the place where she chose for me that I was altering my own lunch. That was super irritating. The food itself was just meh, probably overshadowed by this strange employees behavior and sabotage of my lunch. read more

Urban Plates always hits right. I stopped in for a coffee and ended up walking out with dessert -- no regrets. The Chocolate Vanilla Layer Cake looked so good in the case I couldn't pass it up. It's just as amazing as it looks -- rich, moist chocolate layers with vanilla cream, fresh berries, and those edible orchids on top. You can taste that it's made with care, not mass-produced. The Chocolate Chunk Cookies are also a must. Big, soft in the center, and full of real chocolate -- perfect with a hot latte. Simple but done right. Service was quick and friendly, and the place had a really comfortable vibe -- bright, clean, and welcoming. You can tell they take pride in what they do. Urban Plates just has that feel-good balance -- fresh food, great desserts, and people who actually care about the details. Definitely one of my go-to spots. read more

I had Uber deliver the blackened salmon with broccoli. The salmon was so salty that it was un edible. And the broccoli was over seasoned and did not taste good at all. I don't know what they put on it but it was way too intense. The macaroni and cheese was OK. The mushroom sandwich was pretty good and the seafood chowder was pretty good. read more
