    The front entrance
    Mar R.

    Wow !!!! stop by on my way home at the Urbane Café the service was excellent the staff so friendly the place very clean, being vegan It's not easy walking into any place however I was surprised they had vegan sandwiches which it made my day Joanna took my order & she was so friendly & knowledgeable of the menu the food was delicious and the price was fair I highly recommend the Urbane Cafe and I will definitely be back thank you for the excellent service you have provided

    Santa Maria BBQ Sandwich and lemonade - amazing!
    Leigh M.

    This place just opened in this strip plaza and it's the perfect lunch spot. The bbq chicken slaw sandwich I had was so tasty and the blue cheese dressing I put on my side salad was AMAZING. The lemonade was super refreshing as well. Reasonable prices - $18 for everything. I love the patio. There's plenty of shade options as well as in the beautiful Southern California sun. Everybody was very friendly and after ordering at the counter, it was delivered to my table. My new favorite lunch spot!

    Seared Ahi Tuna Bowl

    My family and friends came today for lunch! We really enjoy their sandwiches, salads, and chocolate chip cookies. They have a variety of options to choose from. They even have vegetarian options and gluten option available as well. They make their own bread and cookies! I really like the salads come with a lot of toppings. The bread always tastes fresh. I'm not sure if they sell the mini chocolate chip cookies but the mini chocolate chip cookies are my favorite. When I had the cookies they were warm and crispy. Urbane Cafe has a few locations! I have been to the San Pedro location and glad they opened one here in Redondo too! -They have plenty of parking spots available -They have indoor and outdoor seating

    Cranberry Brie with a side salad
    Jessica S.

    Found this place while scouting for new places to eat that wasn't fried food. Urbane seems to be a newer restaurant in the South Bay so I wanted to try it out. I ordered the cranberry Brie sandwich with the side salad which was pretty decent. The best part was their cookies. I got the chocolate chip and it was nice and chewy. The staff are pretty nice and even gave out samples of the cookies. I look forward to trying out their other sandwiches!

    Chimichurri steak
    Tracy P.

    As a previous Ventura resident, I love seeing urbane expanding. This location is no different. Fresh bread, quality food, great vibe and an awesome patio for nice days. The ordering is all on kiosk so no tip needed which is great and a sandwich with the side salad was $15. Great deal for such fresh food and great ingredients. I had the chimichurri steak sandwich today and was impressed. Food came out in about 5 minutes. Will be a staple location for me whenever I'm around town.

    Very clean, nice place!

    Salads were awesome. Definitely worth trying. Going for sandwiches next. good for lunch and an early dinner. Great area close to beach.

    Very welcoming people work here, good start. I received a mailer voucher, for a buy one get one free entre and it was a very good deal! The chimichurri Steak sandwich was great! The med salad was also tasty but I recommend adding chicken. Other than that the bread would have been a little nicer better toasted but I enjoyed this visit.

    Ahi.  Very Nasty. Inedible. Avoid the Ahi bowls

I heard a lot of good things about it Tendon Tempura Carlos Jr. so I decided to try the food court express version. They had 2 bento box options here and I got the Bento Box A ($19.99). It came with teriyaki salmon, burdock salad, fresh salad, shrimp tempura, pumpkin, shishito, and mushroom tempura. The side was a choice of rice or soba or upgrade to California roll for $1 or Salmon roll for $2. I went with the California roll. Here are my thoughts: Tempura: for all the hype around this, I thought it was ok. 3.5/5 stars Salmon teriyaki: it was a typical salmon teriyaki. It got cold quickly, but I think that is my fault since I kept taking pictures of the food. 3.4/5 stars Meatballs: first time trying Japanese meatballs and I thought it had a nice balance of sweet and savory. 4/5 stars Fresh salad: it was fresh. 4/5 stars California roll: it was ok and nothing to write home about. 3/5 stars Miso soul: it's definitely miso alright! 3/5 stars Service was minimal since it's food court food. The food was a pretty average experience, but the prices are restaurant prices. I guess it is worth a try if you really love tempura.

We asked more than once. Each time we were passed over while other things took priority. We eventually left without eating. Even tho the food looked great. I'm not writing this because the wait was long. A wait is fine. Being told "it'll be about 20 minutes" is fine. What wasn't fine was being treated as though we weren't there at all, repeatedly, by the owner. It's a small thing to make eye contact and say "we'll be with you shortly," and it's the difference between a customer who waits patiently and one who walks out feeling disrespected. I can't speak to the food, we never got to try it. I can only speak to how we were treated, and it was disappointing enough that we won't be returning. 어느 정도 붐비는 저녁 시간에 아내와 함께 방문해 자리를 안내해 달라고 요청했습니다. 그런데 아무런 응대도 받지 못했습니다. 인사도, 대기 시간 안내도 없었고, 저희가 서 있다는 사실 자체를 인지하고 있다는 어떤 표시도 없었습니다. 한 번이 아니라 여러 번 요청했지만 그때마다 그냥 지나쳐졌습니다. 결국 식사를 하지 못하고 나왔습니다. 기다리는 시간이 길어서 이 글을 쓰는 것이 아닙니다. 기다리는 것은 괜찮습니다. "20분 정도 걸립니다"라는 안내 한마디만 있었어도 괜찮았을 겁니다. 문제는 사장님으로부터 저희가 그 자리에 아예 없는 사람처럼 반복해서 대우받았다는 점입니다. 눈을 마주치고 "곧 안내해 드리겠습니다"라고 말하는 것은 아주 사소한 일이지만, 손님이 편안히 기다리느냐 무시당했다고 느끼며 나가느냐를 가르는 차이입니다. 음식에 대해서는 평가할 수 없습니다. 맛볼 기회조차 없었으니까요. 저희가 받은 응대에 대해서만 말씀드릴 수 있고, 그 응대는 다시 방문하지 않을 만큼 실망스러웠습니다.

Probably because it's Korean, in a Korean supermarket, where the competitors that folded shop were not always. Other stands also had a freshness issue - not much turnover as most visitors want Korean. Each time I shop at HMart, I see big soup bowls from Hansol. And I think, as a giant soup lover, I need to get me some. It always looks so good. Unfortunately, it does not taste as good as it looks. For example, the 2 rib special looks fantastic but the meat is tough to eat. The noodles are flat, need some flare. The rice bowls lack flavor. I see all these glowing reviews and know I'm swimming against the tide. Probably sacrilege for me to say that the Hmart prepared food tastes better than this restaurant... but I find this to be the case. The prices - not great.

The interesting: The dishes came with a side salad with orange dressing, pickled yellow radish, and some citrus wedges. The dishes came with 3 pickled side dishes (including kim chi). and a soup.
