Food was pretty good! I loved how healthy everything tasted and felt very clean, not much processed foods on my plate so I loved that. Herb roasted potatoes were so yum and the grilled chicken was very juicy. Mango tart was not too sweet and was a good dessert. Service was good, we just ordered at the front and they brought out our food quickly. Store is nice. I like how theres a partially outdoors dining area. Looks like a nice casual place to catch up with friends read more

Urban Plates - Love it - New American Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Ive passed by this place a few times but had never tried it. I thought it looked kind of basic, but it was actually pretty good. We had the gojuchang tofu plate with quinoa and balsamic brussel sprouts and the chicken strips with fries and sesame broccoli. The food was simple but satisfying. The cashier gave us a free chocolate chip cookie because it was broken so he couldn't sell it. I thought that was cool because he could've thrown it in the trash instead. I gladly took the cookie and it was delicious! You can order from the cashier or go contact less and use the little screen up front if you're not feeling a social interaction. I can see myself coming back on a day when I don't feel like cooking and just want something simple. They also have a thanksgiving meal package that looked kind of cool. Overall, very decent. read more

This is another location down here at Sunnyvale and so far, it's the closest location from where I live. It's much smaller here compared to the one from Dublin, but it still has that good, aesthetic vibe here. I thought about the grass fed steak and decided to give it a try. It's not bad, but kinda raw and a bit cold. But I do like everything else on the plate including the replenisher. Perhaps, I should try something else and probably get desserts in the future. read more

Quick service and casual ambiance if you are looking for a quick bite during busy lunch hours. If you are nearby, sure it could be worth saving time on a sit down restaurant. But definitely not worth the drive for a barely warm plate of food. I would expect the food to be warmer than it was. I understand the fixed menu and meal prep, but a little consideration could elevate the whole experience. Fries were soggy, both roasted Brussels sprouts and grilled tofu were cold and the garlic bread was a dry grilled slice of bread, if you don't have time to butter it, give it on the side. read more

Really tasty food! Quick service. Easy ordering (kiosk or counter, if not comfortable using the kiosk). The portions are perfect. The price is very reasonable. The quality of food excellent. I just didn't give it five stars because my streak was slightly undercooked which made it hard to eat but I also did not want it well done (which there is an option for if you like your steak that way), it was just closer to rare than medium rare. I will go back to urban plates at some point - really enjoyed the menu options as well. read more

Good food with generous portions and cozy environment. The Nashville tenders took a bit longer than expected, possibly because the sauce needed extra cooking time. Unfortunately, they forgot my garlic BREAD, and even after I reminded the server, the BREAD never arrived--especially noticeable since other tables seated after me received their BREAD. Please ensure that the BREAD is not forgotten, as it's arguably the best part of the meal and a basic expectation. Still, I'm giving this place 4 stars since it seemed like an off day and the food itself was solid. Make sure you get your BREAD in order. read more

Ter-ri-ble! Haven't been here in years and decided to give it another try tonight...dumb-de dumb-dumb-dumb!! Ordered through DD and was utterly disappointed, especially for the price. The steak, both my husband's main and my side were grossly overcooked, nothing like the med rare they describe. The mashed potatoes were bland (skip the gravy) and the harrisa cauliflower was underwhelming. Maybe this was the "bench" cooks, I dont know but what I do know is deuces Urban Plates. read more

Urban Plates - I had to salt the bland over cooked steak. - New American Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Ever since I became a plate pass member, every order I've gotten has had something wrong with it. I only order once a week and the orders aren't complicated. I ordered a kids plate and it had salmon, mashed potatoes, and gravy. The salmon was undercooked, and I only noticed when I got home. then another time I ordered the salmon plate again and only one fourth of the gravy cup was filled. today I ordered the cheeseburger with no cheese and the pickles were missing. Luckily, I checked in the car and I noticed the pickles were missing. I love pickles so I went back to the restaurant and told them and they gave me pickles in a small container. It's just super disappointing that they've gotten three orders in a row wrong for me. read more

Wow! I love coming here so much. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a chic spot with beautiful indoor seating in Sunnyvale[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] with all the skinny girl meals, so many options, and I don't feel bloated and terrible after like some places!

Had the tomato basil soup with pesto, piping hot and absolutely delicious. The Three Up Combo was enjoyable, though the broccoli was slightly overdone with a yellowish tinge. The grilled steak sandwich was flavorful and satisfying. A great spot to order from if you're after fresh, quality fare with a touch of comfort. read more

It's a fast casual, health conscious restaurant that caught many young people's eyes for its creative cuisine, reasonable price and a free cookie to grab (for leaving review on social media). My daughter loved urban plate and has told me how good it is, thus I have been looking forward to trying this place. Coincidentally, our friend took us here on a date night. I ordered a grilled salmon, but got blackened salmon instead. It was salty. Beet salad with goat cheese was alright. Everything else was salty. It's a casual eatery, you pay before seating, bus your water and utensils, except staff bring your food to you. Inattentive and careless service. They should have cleaned the table as it was dirty but didn't. Cashier didn't pay attention in interacting with customers. Overall vibe was a bit dark and depressing. read more

Urban Plates is a nice restaurant to go to if you're looking for healthy & simple. Choose your protein and two sides. They also have bowls, soups, and salads. Food you can make at home but are too tired so you go here to ensure you're meeting your macros. The food is tasty and the sides are yummy. Similar sides to Pacific Catch but pricier. I would go here often but it is pricey so it's one of those you pay for your health. Order at the kiosk then you self serve everything else and get seated. read more

2.5 rounded to 3. This location is really nice, with thoughtful decor and friendly service. Parking is available, which is always a plus. We ordered at the counter, found a seat ourselves, and they delivered the food to the table with a number stand. That said, the food was pretty mid. It tastes like typical tech free food, healthy but overpriced and not very impressive. read more

One of our occasional go tos. Fresh ingredients and good quality meat for a decent price. We grabbed the chimichurri chicken and the grass fed steak. Our sides were the basmati rice, Parmesan mushrooms, and marble potatoes. The ordering kiosk is kind of a pain in the butt with all the options so I'd see if you can order at the counter. Service was quick and friendly and the food was good and hot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was 5:45ish and a little busy as we ate but there was still plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking garages are close or there may be street parking after 6pm. We always grab a giant cookie to go and the chocolate chip cookie was amazing as usual. We did almost screw up as we waited till the end of the meal and the dinner surge left us with the last cookie. They make more each day but we'd have had to go with something else. Very convenient, good food, and nice employees. Make it a good spot to stop. Only request, the restaurant in dublin has a pepper plant sauce and balsamic vinegar out to use and this site only has Cholula. read more

Delicious food, prompt service and [[HIGHLIGHT]]great ambiance[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Whenever we're in town we stop by and try something new.

I used to love Urban Plates--but it totally fell off. I was a regular especially during the pandemic--I'd get the Moroccan braised chicken at another location. It used to be rich, creamy, full of olives, and felt like a real stew. To say that it was a delicious meal is an understatement. In contrast, what I got today was a watery, bland mess. The stew was soupy, barely had any chicken or squash, and there were no olives or other veggies at all. It's basically chicken and potato soup with some random seasonings in it. I chose rice instead of mashed potatoes--bad call. It used to be fluffy jasmine rice; now it's some dry ginger turmeric version that doesn't pair well with the dish at all. This kind of meal needs creaminess or at least proper texture contrast. The whole bowl felt flat, flavorless, and skimpy. The last time I tried this was a couple years ago and honestly, it was already starting to slip. I figured maybe it was a one-and-done thing or just a bad location. But trying it again now, at a different spot, it's clear the quality overall just isn't what it used to be. Portions as of 2025 are even smaller, flavor is weaker, AND it now costs $15. This used to be $10, and back then it was actually worth it. The price hike would be fine if the quality held up, but it hasn't. That said, the environment was clean, the area is walkable and pleasant, and my order was ready early, which I appreciated. Even if it hadn't been, it would've been fine since the pickup spot is in a nice location. The service was totally fine--no complaints there. I'm giving one extra star only because they still list the ingredients, so I can try to remake the original version at home. But yeah--this was a huge letdown. I won't be coming back. Thanks for the ingredients list. read more

I love the healthy cafeteria-style concept and used to go to this chain all the time in LA - so glad it finally came up to the bay! I think everything is pre-made and then set on the line assembly-line style. Grab a tray and order food. We Doordashed from this spot :) A Steak Plate with two Sides and Chicken added came to be about $33 (DD prices). The portions are well sized. The chicken and steak are very lean. The mashed potatoes were drool worthy. read more

We were still full from lunch and I can only think of a salad no other than Urban Plates'. Been here before and their salads are very satisfying. It comes in big portions and is packed with ingredients. We also got to try the Beef Short Ribs bowl and it's such a comfort food - tender beef on a bed of mashed tomatoes with heartwarming sauce. It's like grandma's homemade recipe. Such quality food for less than $25 is a rare find these days. The space is huge with big long table and some tables for 4. It is a family friendly place. Sound is quite noisy though maybe from high ceiling without much acoustics. A bang from the kitchen reverberates throughout the space. read more

Took me a long time before I finally got a chance to go to urban plate. High quality food with tons of healthy food choices. I personally love the chicken tender the most. It's crispy, tender, and juicy. For $15, you can also get 2 sides. Price is very affordable. Moreover, they have great outdoor seating. It's very relaxing sitting outside for a weekend lunch. Parking is very easy as there are multiple parking structures around. Will for sure return and try their dessert! read more

The workers here are friendly and the service is good. The place is clean and spacious with plenty of seats. Ironically, ordering there at the cashier is faster than ordering on mobile. I came after my friends and my food came after theirs even though they did mobile orders before I made mine at the cashier. I ordered the surf and turf with mashed potatoes and fries. The food didn't take too long to come out and the food was decent. There are plenty of menu items here that I want to try. They also have their own tasty soft drinks there as well. read more

My first time at this casual chain and it was tasty. Appreciate that they offer a vegetarian protein (tofu) that's actually well-seasoned. I ordered their beets + avocado bowl with a side of chili glazed grilled tofu and truffle parmesan fries. The fries were delicious - pillowy interior with a nice touch of truffle. The tofu was also good, although the charred marks were too smoky / burnt for my preference but the sweet chili glaze helped mask it. For a casual eatery where you order upfront it was a hefty lunch at about $27. Service was friendly and helpful. Overall, would come back if I was in the area. read more

I wish there was an Urban Plates in Fremont. They serve delicious comfort food that is affordable and quality. I ordered the grilled grass-fed steak no extra sauce with a side of the mushroom stuffing and roasted carrots and potatoes. Everything was seasoned well and now I'm excited for my leftovers tomorrow. The hummus and pita chips was delicious. My friend had the garlic shrimp with Parmesan butter with the side of beet and goat cheese salad and the mushrooms. So so so good! I did takeout so I can't say how service was but the menu was easy to navigate and once the service saw you waiting they were good to let you know the status of your order. I think Urban Plates is a nice set up if you're meeting a good size group of friends and you don't have to worry about the splitting the check later. Looks cozy and nice lighting inside. I'll definitely come back read more

Tomato basil soup was, just, marina sauce, salty, and non edible. They need a professional chef who taste the soup before serving their customers. To many new hires that really were unprepared and made the dining experience time consuming. read more

I thought I liked Urban Plates until I tried placing a mobile order through their app today. Urban Plates charges a 3% surcharge to every order to "offset the cost of rising wages and benefits." Sure, 3% is not a lot, but 3% of every order adds up... I wholeheartedly believe that Urban Plates should pay their employees a livable wage and NOT pass their responsibilities off to the consumers. As a customer, it is not my responsibility to help offset rising costs of your payroll. Consumers support staff by tipping. I was disgusted and saddened when I saw this pop up in the app and decided to order lunch from somewhere else today. I'm disappointed in Urban Plates for this and will no longer be eating here and encouraging my friends to boycott as well. Unfortunate to come back to a once-5-star review draft I wrote in 2023 to leave a 1-star review instead. read more

I can't say enough about Urban Plates. They are the perfect sustainable food restaurant, with reasonable prices, and with an added discount if you sign up for their Plates Pass (I paid for the annual pass instead of monthly, so worth it!).

Tried Santana Row location first, and wasn't too impressed. Decided to try the Sunnyvale location...also not too impressive...could have been marginally better than Santana Row? Came about an hour before closing. I personally ordered the steak place with Caesar salad, fries, and rustic bread. Steak was below average (a bit rubbery), salad was good, fries were not crispy or hot, and bread was stale. Others ordered a grilled chicken plate and a chicken cobb salad. They thought it was ok, but nothing too impressive. Seating inside and outside available. Parking can definitely be tough during peak hours...so your best bet might be to park in the garage. read more
