Marcus F.

A very good casual option that checks most boxes. i think their bowls are their best options, then their salads, then sandwiches in that order. Salads tend to be too big to eat in one sitting.. - pricing was reasonable for the quality. - unique fountain drink options and lemonades.

Parking is easy, in a good part of town, quick service, and friendly enough costumer service. I got the cafe salad, goat cheese, avocado, pears, walnuts, and chicken, and a drink for $17 The food was done fast, and It was good. The ingredients should of worked together, because they were fresh, and the balsamic it came with was good. I was told by a friend that their sandwiches are better, but I didn't love the salad at all. It was very bland and sad. Not enough goat cheese and the balsamic needed some sort of sweetness besides the pears to make it better. It was just so bland, the chicken was just boiled breast, no seasonings. Even though I didn't even finish the salad, I don't think they deserve 3 stars because it was edible just not flavorful at all so I'm giving 4, I probably ordered the wrong thing I guess

Bummed! My husband recently tried Urbane Cafe for his first time (solo) and said it was really good so I was looking forward to not having to cook tonight and trying it for myself. I ordered two of the Keto Cobb salads with no modifications or anything fancy. Upon pick up, the staff informed my husband that they ran out of eggs and only had enough egg for one salad. He said that they were apologetic and offered a different protein, however no refund was offered (nor did my husband ask). I was disappointed that the store didn't contact me to let me know they ran out of egg ahead of time, at which point I probably would've chosen a different meal altogether. Also, the focaccia bread that is meant to come with the salads was not included in the bag. The blue cheese dressing was watery with little crumbles of blue cheese at the bottom - it tasted fine but the consistency was off-putting. While the price point for the salads is pretty good for today's dining market, there was so much missing and lacking from our meals I definitely won't be racing to return.

Burning bread as the employees ignored the counter and oven.

Been here a number of times with a great experience. However, this time, I stood at the counter for several minutes waiting to order. No acknowledgement. There were 3 employees in the store, 2 behind the counter and 1 bussing tables. And only 3 tables of customers in the entire store. I watched the focaccia bread in the oven as it was burning from lack of attention. I even called out and said hey your bread is burning and the guy behind the counter didn't seem to care. When I finally got his attention, he dumped two loaves into the trash and then came to take my order. Clearly the employees at this location need training on priorities.

WHAT THE ****!!??! BUG IN MY SALAD :( Haven't been here in a while because the quality was becoming hit or miss. Finally came back and get half way through my (delicious I will say) salad, and THERES A FREAKIN BUGGGG! :( At least it was dead? Idk if that makes it better or worse though honestly.... Super bummed. Almost 20$ salad in the trash :/

Delicious healthy food! We were looking for a place for a healthy lunch and found this place on Yelp. And what a great place. The place was very clean, service was nice fast and efficient. We got 2 salad/bowls to share and the ingredients were very fresh and flavors very delicious. And the best part: feeling good after eating. Love this place! Highly recommend.

Urbane is early accessible with plenty of parking. There's plenty of seating but when i came on a Saturday night, no one was eating inside. They were preparing mostly take out. I got the Ahi tuna salad. They packaged it well. The portions were big. The tuna was seared just right. It was tender. They added homemade bread. Yum! There is nothing over 13.95 here. This place is my new favorite. Service was also very good.

Sandwiches have been my vibe lately. We ordered Urbane to be delivered to a work event (it was supposed to take 20 minutes but took over an hour). The food was great though! They have four vegetarian sandwich options - I got 'The Californian' with artichokes, avocado, sundried tomatoes, mozzarella, and lettuce. It comes with a side salad and generous amount of dressing on the side. Portions are great, I finished the whole thing and was pretty full.

Crunchy Peanut Salad
Felina V.

Our first time at Urbane Cafe was delightful, and we've already decided we'll pop back in when we're in the area. We were looking for a light and healthy option during the heat wave this weekend, and these flavor-packed salads did not disappoint! Quick service, friendly staff, clean and tidy indoor and outdoor seating. Highly recommend for a quick, light bite! We had the Keto Cobb with steak, and the Crunchy Peanut salad, both served with delicious warm focaccia.

Antioxidant salad.  Also came with gluten free focaccia bread.

Delicious sandwiches that come with a side of salad, chips or soup. A little pricey but so much better than fried fast food.

I've been coming here since 2022, and as someone who's been vegan for over 10 years, this place…read morereally is such a gem to have nearby. I've tried a good portion of the menu, and some of my favorites are the Bam Bam Burger, Jughead Burger, carne asada bowl, and the monster chili dog. The fries are always so good, and the cold mac salad is a must The portions are generous and I almost always have leftovers, which I love. Even my non-vegan husband enjoys coming here, and we've recommended it to friends who have also really liked it Service has always been great, food usually comes out quickly, and the staff is consistently friendly and helpful The space itself has such an eclectic, laid-back vibe with tons of art and character, it's just a fun place to be Sometimes the sauce levels can be a little on the heavier side depending on the day, but the flavors are always really good The hibiscus lemonade is really refreshing, I'd just personally enjoy it even more with ice It's clear everything here comes from a lot of creativity and passion, and I really appreciate the care that goes into a menu that's entirely his own!

The owner took our order and was incredibly friendly, helpful, and informative. He described all of the dishes and you can tell he genuinely loves his resturant and what he's doing there. At one point he mentioned that he's proud of the portions because he thinks a lot of vegan resturants tend to skimp a little. He was absolutely right to be proud. I had the French Dip and it was honestly one of the best sandwiches I've had. The stek was sliced thin and really tasty, the cheze in the sandwich was perfectly gooey (which is rare for plant based cheze), and the aujus was the real star. I've honestly had nothing like it before. It was also a really hearty portion and super filling. My wife had the Jambi sandwich -- a hash brown wafflle with fried chikun, sunflower swiss, seitan bakon between two pieces of french toast -- plus chili fries on the side. The sandwich itself was impressively big and definitely lived up to the owner's point about portions. We've both been vegan for about 10 years and always appreciate finding places doing creative food like this. We live about an hour and a half away, but we're already figuring out when we can make the trek back for another visit.

Rosewood Kitchen in Oceanside is so good. We ordered the surf & turf ramen and the dirty bird fries…read moreand both were incredible. The ramen had so much flavor and the fries were next level. Definitely one of the best meals we've had in a long time. The vibe is awesome, the art inside is beautiful, and they even have live music.

We were trying to find a place that was a midway point between Temecula and San Diego to meet up…read morewith a friend. We settled on Oceanside in hopes of finding good food, as our weekend (end of Feb) had been full of a poor results. This place came up as very well rated on Yelp, as my friend and I searched for places to eat. It was a Saturday night with great weather. The red flag I should have read into was that the lone guy working that night was a one man show. He was doing it all in the front of the house. I tried to get us a table to sit outdoors but he just couldn't get to the table to clean it. After about 20 minutes he finally came and just moved all the bowls to the empty table next to it and wiped it down. When my friends finally arrived we all sat down to sticky menus that had NO descriptions. What you see on the website is exactly what they have on the menu. We had to wait to ask the server/host what each menu item meant. It took a while to get our food from when we ordered. Thank goodness for good company, I didn't clock it. The food options were limited and keep in mind for those who have children, most of the options come with a spicy kick, you'll have to explicitly tell them "no spicy"! There was a party who had been sitting for a while before we got there and a kiddo took a bite of pizza and was crying, screaming from it being so spicy. With my ramen the portions are tiny for what you pay, with 1 piece of meat, not enough noodles. Flavor wise it was spicy and bland. We ordered a couple appetizers which were not very good. The edamame was overly salty and soaked in soy sauce and the karaage was probably the only good thing and that was a little overfried. No one in our party finished our food or took any of the leftovers home. Save yourself the trip, not worth trying the "unique foods".

Since I know my food, the table let me order. Fresh hand cut thick long French Fries without a ton of seasoning or oil arrived: one with a cashew cheese truffle sauce, one with no salt, and one salted as requested. My daughter loved her reuben. I loved my blt. The two Caesar salads for the table disappeared quickly because their dressing is unbelievable! Let's see .... what didn't we eat is probably smarter than what did we eat. Beet ketchup, The C Word (braised cabbage), a couple of cronic sushi rolls, and there was a special lemon creme brûlée. Everyone enjoyed everything they ate, including my almost 3 year old grandson (they brought out a specially sliced fruit bowl for him). They offered many choices for kids, but he just wanted fruit. Hope you had as wonderful a Mother's Day as I did. Yes. We appreciated eating healthy and not walking away stuffed but instead satisfied. They were selling plants. So I bought 4 and planted them today! The gift that keeps on giving! We will be back for sure! With garlic, gusto & gratitude, Chef Marian

They have a very unique concept of renewable farming and sustainable gardening. There's plenty of indoor seating (the interior is lovely) and outdoor seating that integrates with the garden. The garden is available for customers to walk around. It's amazing to see how they've efficiently grown so much in a limited space. The Plot also has $5 plants you can purchase for home-gardening. Their eggplants are in season. Freshly harvested from the garden, I tried the panko crusted charcoal roasted eggplant - it was beautiful, delicious, creative and everything wonderful packed into a dish. It was topped with a very unique, naturally salty plant called the asparagus of the sea (I've literally never had it anywhere else besides here). I also tried the c word (which is wine braised cabbage), the beet ruben sandwich, and the mushroom toast. Everything was SO GOOD! The service is also on another level. I felt genuine kindness and happiness exuding from the staff. Whatever they are doing, they are doing it right. I was a bit sad to see that it wasn't bustling on a Sunday brunch. This is a must visit in Oceanside!!
