    Spectacular Californian sandwich -- the first vegetarian sandwich option comes with a very tasty side salad
    Johan M.

    Got hungry while waiting in Simi Valley, and this place looked like it would have good salads. The Jewel salad looked appetizing, but the Californian vegetarian sandwich sounded really good and I decided to treat myself. Not only did this tasty sandwich not disappoint in the slightest, the side salad fully satisfied my salad search. As I was eating, I was called and informed that I did not have to wait any longer and could get going. I felt bad that I had not ordered my food to go but I approached some of the servers and told them that I had to get going unexpectedly and wondered if I could get my food to go. Not only was that not a problem, one of them offered me one of their fresh baked cookies. I told them if they were offering me a free cookie then I would gladly accept a free cookie. And in fact, they were offering me a free cookie and I will say this: what a great way to advertise your fantastic cookies. The staff was friendly, helpful and generous. The food was delicious. The environment was clean, quiet, trendy, and in inviting. As good as it gets. Five stars. And I looked into it--there's an Urbane Cafe in Northridge which is much more convenient for me living in the West SF Valley. I look forward to visiting that location and comparing with the Simi location that did not disappoint in anyway. Whatsoever would visit again if it was more convenient.

    Love that they bake the breads fresh right in front of you!! Sandwiches good. The chicken ban mi my favorite. The chocolate chip cookies are fabulous Prices reasonable service workers friendly

    Glazed salmon salad was moist and delicious
    Benay K.

    Friendly service clean and delicious food. Tables outside where we were able to sit with the dogs. We ordered; Salmon glazed salad $13.50 was really good. Salmon was moist and flavorful Tomato Bisque soup $6 was good but a small portion for that price Side of chicken for my pooches $3.50 seemed processed one of my dogs wouldn't eat it- the other one is a lab- so he ate it with no problem Gluten free read $4 was excellent

    If you are seeking a quick healthy meal, then this is a good place to stop at! From entering the restaurant we were greeted by staff warmly! Food was prepared very quickly and delivered to our table with napkins and silverware. We appreciate the reusable plates when eating in! The food was fresh! Sandwiches come with a side salad! The salad was bountiful! Nice green lettuce! The sandwiches were a good size and well prepared! The menu consists of sandwiches, salads and soups! The menu even has vegetarian food items! Also the restaurant has very good freshly made cookies! They also make their own bread! Bonus! The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating! Outdoor seats have umbrellas! Indoor consist of bench seating and tables! Plenty of parking! Parking lot shared with target! We appreciate the great service and fresh food! We will be back!

    I'm a long time fan of Urbane Cafe! I don't visit the Simi location often, but my experience at this location has been just as good as the other locations that I've been to. I decided to try the new antioxidant salad. I added chicken to it and had the dressing in the side. I loved all of the ingredients in the salad. I was not as crazy about the blueberry vinaigrette dressing. The portion size was great and I was able to have some for lunch the next day. Although the salad was good, my favorite items are still the sandwiches and the cookies. I also love their lemonade. Urbane Cafe has excellent food for a great price! I highly recommend coming here!

    I've really never had a bad meal or experience here. I love that their food is always fresh. Today, Felix helped me, and he was great. My food came promptly and was exactly as ordered. I asked for a couple substitutions, and they got them right! I love this location & I'm always able to find parking. Clean restrooms.

    Whoa! The Skywalker Sandwich is phenomenal,I don't think I have ever had such a flavorful sandwich…read morebefore. The Dutch crunch bread type was very interesting and a must try,if you have never had it. I had everything on it. Mustard, mayo lettuce, tomato, pickles. Not sure what else was in it other than avocado but it was amazing. Customer service was much to be desired and the dude with the long dirty blonde hair definitely needs some lessons with explaining kindly rather than just pointing at a sign. This dude shouldn't be at the front line taking orders,who knows how much business he's losing as a result of his public social skills. Placing an order. Speaking with this guy was a very unpleasant experience. The owner needs to record the interaction and reactions of the employees and customers to see what's going in. The food? Fantastic! Couldn't recommend a better place to order a sandwich from. Service not so much. Would have given at least a 4 ,but again customer service skills is lacking here. The sandwich maker with the brown short hair is really nice and pleasant to interact with. Maybe ted Nugent should watch how he interacts with the public. Update: Mgmnt got back really quick and remediated the issue with the employee and hopefully improves over time. Sometimes,that's all it takes to get the full 5* stars, thanks Steve!

I decided to go with The Lake show sandwich, cause I love the Lakers and I love salami. In addition to salami, the sandwich came with their bomb sauce, pepper jack cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions and pickles. The sandwich was served hot and it was absolutely delicious. With every bite I experienced so many flavor notes. It was savory, a little sour, vinegary and also a little sweet from the ripe veggies. The yummy salami was perfectly complemented by the other ingredients and each bite was perfect, especially with the sourdough bread that I chose for my sandwich. For salami lovers, The Lake Show sandwich is top notch and a must try! The customer service was solid and the spot is pretty casual and has some tables i side for dining in. Will come back again when in the area!

In the next 5 minutes if you paid attention for about 20 seconds you learned how things worked. It was busy, plates looked great and the aroma inside the place was something else. Our food came quick, we sat and began to peel open our pastrami dip sandwiches. Oh, they smelled great. They looked great. The meat was delicious, melt-in-your mouth tender. They did notice us! They like us! I could not imagine how much better a pastrami sandwich could have been. The bread was very good too-you know the Earl of Sandwich was onto to something way back when....the combination of meat and bread was great. The Hat has numerous other locations in the LA area...if you want a beyond generous sandwich you must stop and order the pastrami.

The good news is, I think I'll be back at some point so I'll update my review with food pics. The restaurant is take out only. I recommend calling ahead so you don't have to wait. That's what I did and I didn't have to wait. I think the earlier you get food the more likely you are to have the full menu at your disposal. They were basically out of desserts by 5p on a Saturday. But honest I didn't come for the dessert. I came for the meat and meat is what I got. I ordered a rack of baby back ribs. They were flavorful and very meaty. It wasn't a chilis size rack it was more of a Fred flintstone size rack. I'm exaggerating but you get it. I also ordered a 1/4 lb of brisket. It wasn't juicy and fatty. Not sure if they offer a lean cut. But if juice is what you're are looking for this would deliver. The sides I got were potato salad = good, mac and cheese = slightly better than good, baked beans = not good. The baked beans were so tomato heavy. Maybe that's a Tex mex baked bean and if so I don't need it. They tasted as if there was no brown sugar or sweetening agent in them at all. Again maybe it is just a preference thing. I would not order them again. The ribs were tender and the sauce was very nice. It was a sweet sauce which I love so if that's your bag get ready to enjoy.
