The service is great here! Philip and the team were warm and inviting and the food was incredible. I def recommend to anyone

Great food and service! Employee (cant remember his name) went above and beyond! Clean environment! The tomato soup is delish!

WOW! Delicious food (High Protein Bowl and Salmon Bowl) and excellent service from Luma! She was so accommodating and friendly! I'm so glad we rediscovered Urbane Cafe as my husband used to go to the one on Moreno Blvd near his office. Now that he's working from home, we kind of forgot about it but he was craving a grain bowl. So, off to my Yelp search and there was Urbane Cafe in El Cajon. We'll definitely be going back again! The prices are very reasonable too. They make healthy food taste good! Thanks again to Luma!! read more

The bacon in the club sandwich was very dry and chewy. Bahn mi sandwich was good. I liked the pickled carrots. I do NOT recommend the Mediterranean bowl. Does not taste "Mediterranean". They added some kind of weird spice to the hummus so it tasted more like spicy barbecue sauce, and the sweet potato and kale was a bad mixture. The place was clean and the service was fast. Unfortunately the food itself knocked off multiple stars. read more

Grabbed a quick bite for lunch and stopped by here. I ordered the club sandwich with house salad. It was really good and very filling. Enjoyed a chocolate chip cookie for dessert. The manager was very helpful and polite. I was here on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't busy. I'll be back. read more

I went here after shopping at the mall and wanted something close with vegetarian options. The service was fast and friendly, and the food came out quickly, although it was a little sloppy. I ordered the Bella Portobello sandwich and did not care for it or the bread, which should have been warmed or toasted. The salad was mediocre at best. My husband's soup was not hot, only barely warm, but he did enjoy his sandwich. The soup tasted good, just not at the right temperature. Overall, it was decent but nothing special. They need to tighten up those small details to create a more enjoyable experience. read more

We came here for a late lunch, looking for something light. I tried the salmon bowl which I loved! The bowl came with a quinoa mix, sweet potato, and edamame. The salmon was also a generous portion. I added some siracha to give it some spice, but I loved this dish and would order again! The cookies are also always so fresh, so don't forget to get one! The workers at this location I thought were very friendly and personable which made for a great experience. read more

Quality of the food is extremely low. Wait times have significantly increased. And modifications are being skipped over. It wasn't like this a few years ago. They're lights in the lobby have gone out, dims the ambiance. Overall, go to another location, they would match the expectations and go above n beyond. The experience was buns, as my kid would say. read more

Great food. Love the salads. Services is great. Has inside and outside seating. Order often.

Stopped by and had the tri tip and it was really good. The staff were all super friendly and the managers seemed really helpful and on top of things. You can tell the employees have a good vibe and work well together. Overall a great spot with good food and a positive atmosphere read more

Sandwiches here are good. I've tried a variety of them and enjoyed them all. They also have good soups. They also have good service here. Plenty of seats available for dining in. The parking situation though can be a nightmare. read more

We stopped in for a late lunch and were witness to the GM, Philip being confronted by an erratic behaving customer. The customer became louder and louder, yet Philip kept his composure and handled the situation professionally. The food was delicious as usual! The service was excellent. We will be back! read more

Service was excellent. Super friendly. We ordered the antioxidant salad w/ steak, bbq chicken sandwich and the tri tip sandwich. The antioxidant salad was good. Ingredients were fresh. I liked the fennel and apple in it. The dried blueberries were good too. I like that the dressing comes on the side so you're able to control how much you add. Out of the 2 sandwiches - the tri tip sandwich was much yummier than the bbq chicken sandwich. I also thought it was nice that they include the total calories for each item. read more

My son wanted to eat at a place next to Urbane but I didn't want that so I stopped in for dinner. Decided on the Chimichurri Steak Sandi and It came with a mixed green salad with a balsamic dressing. Both the sandwich and salad were fresh and tasty. The beef was a bit bland though but nothing a little salt couldn't fix. They weren't busy but still took 15 minutes to get my order which is why it's four stars instead of five. Very limited seating but they have some tables outside. read more

After a fun early evening hosted by the city of El Cajon Police at the parkway plaza I was hungry! All that dancing to an 80s cover band had me working up an appetite! Mozied on over to UrbanCafe. Surprisingly it was empty at 8pm on a Tuesday. Staff was very friendly! Wanting to be healthy I ordered an ahi tuna salad to go and had a bag of honey Dijon potato chips - yep- they got me with an impulse buy! The chips were yummy but I was Dissappointed to see how expensive the small bag was at $2.99! The salsa was the perfect size. Not too much, not too little. I was even pleasantly surprised at the amount of ahi included. (I was concerned it wouldn't be enough!) The salad included avacado and a weird amount of it on the side. In all, I enjoyed the salad. Had the dressing on the side which worked well as I could also dip the bread in it. While I do think $18 for a salad and chips (no drink) iis expensive, I did enjoy the meal.. read more

I was just served by the Shift Lead Skye. She was so friendly and was out of one thing I ordered.... But was so kind about figuring out something else I could get. She made a difference in my day!!! So genuinely sweet. Oh, and our sandwiches were delicious too!!! Made a mediocre day way way better read more

This is my first time coming here and I know.. a little before they close :,) but despite that they all greeted me and made me feel welcomed. Colton is a very nice gentleman who was patient with me when I was deciding on what to get. He had a great attitude and an adorable smile! I got the Seared Ahi Tuna Bowl! So damn good! The perfect amount and flavor 9/10 :) read more

Delicious pastrami sandwich. The golden mustard was just spicy enough and the bread and butter pickles added a tasty crunch. Great job!

The chocolate chip cookies are fresh and are warm ooey gooey goodness. Nice well lit open establishment with plenty of seating inside and patio dinning.

This location is located next to a hotel and a bunch of small shops and restaurant. With that being said, finding parking was very difficult due to the size of the parking lot. If you have a big truck, don't even bother as it is very difficult to navigate. The food was very unique and very tasty. Little on the pricey side, two sandwiches and mixed green Came out to a little more than $30. This establishment had a very modern look and feel to it. The service was just OK, If the staff would have greeted and smile a little, it would have been a perfect 5. The staff was either overworked or really hate working here.", which is a reflection of the owner or management team. Overall, if I ever saw this place at the airport, I would for sure stop by. But wouldn't go out of my way. KCYE Don read more

Food is good, service is horrible. Horrible service by night shift guy. He overcharged me, I called him out on it, and kicked me out of store! Someone contacts me few days later and says Im banned and cops will be called. I was basically threatened! Conversation was ended by him saying "I gotta go! Have a flight to catch" Urbane cafe has great food great ambience. Im sure the humble man who started this restaurant would not approve of this vile customer service. Shame shame! Beware, don't fall into customer service traps. read more

I came here for the first time the other day around lunchtime. It was very busy with lots of people dining in and a lot of online/takeout orders. I got my turkey club sandwich in about 10-15 minutes. It was good except for the avocado was bland. I like the little side salad with vinaigrette. read more

I had the cilantro chicken salad. The salad was tasty the ingredients were very fresh. Definitely recommend this place.

Updating to a 5 star. I am obsessed with the ahi tuna salad. I have it on Sundays. If you like ahi tuna, get this salad and be happy. So good. Great service, fresh food, nice rewards program. They don't charge extra for another container of dressing. It's the little things that make a place special. read more

I've always been a fan of urbane cafe! Who can say no to that bread. My favorite sandwich is the socal. Ps. Their tomato bisque soup is always good. This isn't the location I usually go to but the food was the same great quality. Only thing was the beverage station needed a good wipe. I almost wish the utensils were behind the counter instead of the sticky soda machine. read more

Very bad experience. Sandwiches were not made as ordered. As my salad came to the table, I was advised that the peanut dressing was not on it because they were out of the dressing. It was the Crunchy Peanut Salad. Hello!! Got a laugh! The Management failed to order to prepare and provide the basic items on the menu. Bad business. read more

Better than i expected in general. Healthy option and balanced nutrients. the rice in the salmon bowl didnt taste good tho. I believe the bowl would be better without the rice and more sweet potatoes instead. You guys should make that an option. I recommend this place though.- read more

LOVE this place and their fresh food! We often get catering from here for work and it is seriously so so good. I've tried their banh mi tofu sandwich and their salmon salad as well as their veggie salad and literally everything tastes impeccable. The ingredients are fresh and high quality. Our catering meals are always perfectly proportioned and come with a side of bread and cookies with the salad. read more
