Eww...
Valerie Y.

Oof. Salad was promising enough but the repeatedly dismissive manager left a really bad taste in my mouth. As a brand new client I was told that I needed to use the kiosk in the corner because they were "so busy," even though I had all sorts of questions as to how I could respect my dietary needs. During my visit, I tried two other times to get some more specific information, which was begrudgingly provided. Finally, when I pointed out that there was a rotten leaf in my salad, she just muttered "sorry about that" and didn't offer anything to help offset that negative experience. If I were specializing in fresh salads that I was serving to the public, I would be pretty rigorous about checking the leaves as they go into the bowl. Definitely a bummer meal. The young man working the floor was the only one who was helpful.

I ordered pick up but decided to dine in ! I got my fave the Cilantro Chicken Salad ! It is simply delicious and so fresh. Service is amazing. I was so surprised that Dahlia ( server) remembered me after meeting me a year ago! I was like what !? I haven't had that happen before. She came up to me and said, " Hi, it's been awhile but how are you?! Anything else you need? Everything ok?" Of course I remembered her too. She was so sweet when I first stopped by when this location had just opened. Props to her for being so friendly and welcoming! This location is close to the beach. Parking can be a bit hard as a small parking lot is there which is shared with other businesses. I love Urbane today and always! This is one of my go tos for a healthy lunch.

This is my go to place for a good meal. I love trying new items on their menu and this time I decided to try their cilantro chicken salad. It was very fresh and very tasty. I always order on the app and ask for the dressing on the side! They always have my order ready when I pick it up. Great service and friendly staff!

They left me on hold for 30 minutes...

Nobody was more excited than me when I saw we were getting and Urbane in our neighborhood. I had been going to the original location religiously since 2003. In the past i would eat there several times a week and recommend it constantly. Unfortunately this location is not on it the way the telephone one always is. The online app ordering is NEVER updated. Im a big fan of their soups and they seems to be permanently turned off on the app. I even called in the other night to ask if they were available and the person that picked up the phone left me on hold for over 30 minutes! I'm highly disappointed in this location. The staff seem unhappy to be there. They're constantly putting out sloppy food and getting my orders wrong. To me that screams a problem with management. Maybe they aren't treating their staff respectfully... I dont know. I will continue to drive to the telephone location when I am craving Urbane so i dont have to deal with the many downfalls of this location. Sadly, that seems like my only option.

I love Urban Cafe. It's a good cafe for eating and going. I have been to other locations, but this was my first time in Ventura. The cafe was clean, and the service was excellent. My favorite is an Antioxidant salad. I hope there are more drinks in the selection. There are tables inside and outside, but it would be best to have a table outside to see the ocean and feel the nice winds. There is a parking, but you can also park on the street.

I have only tried UC twice, but I will be returning many more times, the food I've tried is delicious. The staff is very friendly, they went out of their way to assist with everything I always have questions! The place inside has few tables, but there is an outside patio that great. Team member Crystal, made a few recommendation on what to try and they did not disappoint. Their sauces are delicious a must try. Will be returning soon to try more on the menu.

My favorite salad place! I really love their food! Anything and everything here is amazing! I tried their chimichurri steak sandwich and it was as amazing as their bowls and salads! I placed the order online and picked up in person. It was quick and easy. Great staff. Will definitely return here in the future

Veggie Bowl Just so tasty and this hummus is the best!

Wow, where do I even begin? Everyone that works here is so friendly and is always paying attention if there is someone waiting at the line to order. I did a mobile order today before heading to work and I forgot to order an extra peanut dressing for my salad and as I was waiting in line, the gentleman making the bread called someone to help me. A young girl approached and she was so friendly and helped me out. Just beyond excellent service!!! The food is just so delicious on another level. You taste the great quality and freshness In every bite. If you want amazing food, greeted by good working employees and be in such a good ambiance, then you gotta stop here. I give this place 100 Stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahi tuna salad and steak Cobb salad

Was extremely delighted with this ahi tuna salad! The orange Asian dressing was delish and I am picky. The staff is always so friendly & the food is ready quickly. Thanks you guys for being one of our Ventura county faves!!

This place popped on my social media and had to try it. Busy location putting out delicious…read moresandwiches, parking can be a challenge because it is right behind Community Memorial Hospital so you enter from the parking not from Loma Vista Street. Friendly efficient staff greeting all who walk through their door. Sandwiches were incredible, no skimping on Boars Head meats or ingredients and you get your moneys worth. Has some sit down dining inside but a great place to order ahead and pick up while you head to the beach. This is a must try and can't wait to go back and try some of the other great sanqweeches featured on the menu. Grazie Ventura Sandwich Co delizioso e tutti! Mangiamo

The Mgr or who ever he is cant grasp the concept that i came back and tried it again , and wrote…read moremy second review. So he comes on and writes a rude response. Hey . I clearly Said who I was with the first time, and I clearly stated what was ordered. The second time two days after , i tried the ham because it had a bad review the last time I came in. I wanted to try it, and give you the benefit of the doubt... so much for that, I mean how hard is it to screw up a boarshead meat sandwich? . Based on the 3 meat sandwiches last time, and the ones I saw being eaten while we were there, it definitely wasn't the usual meat. Or WAS IT???. BUT I EVEN took a picture of it. Just in case you came back and got rude in your response like you have in the past when you don't like when others don't leave you a good review. . We even came back in TODAY and wanted to give it ONE LAST TRY and so i ordered a hot Italian and it was LACKING meat and any flavor, the sandwich is literally the smallest SUB i have had in 37 years! . so Now. I will leave this a solid zero review.. So everyone can see what type of company you genuinely run... And you're the one who hires the staff, so any issues with customer service, food orep or Cleanliness is solely on the management

We keep coming…read moreback because we know every meal will be consistently delicious, thoughtfully prepared and made with the highest-quality ingredients. Their commitment to locally and sustainably sourced food really shines through in every dish. Everything tastes incredibly fresh and dishes are made from scratch. The service is always warm, attentive and welcoming. Tina is exceptionally knowledgeable about wine and has a wonderful ability to recommend the perfect pairing to complement your meal. Her passion and expertise elevate the entire experience. Her co-owner, the chef, is clearly talented and dedicated to creating memorable dishes that never disappoint. Paradise Pantry is one of those rare places where outstanding food, genuine hospitality and consistency come together beautifully. We always leave looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!

SERVICE: I appreciated the cheese samples once seated…read more There's a deli in the back to buy blocks of cheese or spreads. Nextdoor also carries a lovely room of some great wines. The employees were kind, place was clean, there's in and outdoor seating, and parking is what you make of it as PP is located on a blocked off street where cars are not permitted. All to say, research where you wish to walk about, find a meter or free parking lot - enough around, and put on your good yet cute walking shoes because you'll enjoy strolling about after your meal here - or drink. FOOD: I sooo loved my grill cheese. Instead of mushrooms I swapped for spinach - you're welcome. AND THE PICKLE ON THE SIDE - delish! So why 4 and not 5? Because of my limited lifestyle I found the menu a bit limiting. However, I am not a HUGE cheese person and I don't drink. With that said, I feel anyone else who loves to indulge in that world should have a super great experience. Mine was still great. WELL: I actually enjoyed my time and shall return. My mother loves a good red wine so I'll bring her too.

I had to save the rest for leftovers. Also, the shrimp chips that came with it were so delicious and crunchy. Service was great! I was between the grilled pork and the lemongrass beef.

In fact, it's not even vegetarian, as they add fish sauce. My wife ended up having the pho (their only vegan option) and it was fine. I hoped at least the BBQ pork Banh Mi would slap, since it's right there in the name, but was disappointed again. It was as if they learned everything they know about Vietnamese cuisine from a dollar store cookbook. BBQ pork tasted like 90s mall teppanyaki, Thai tea was fine, but the boba was undercooked and crumbly in the center. The guy behind the counter was nice enough, and I appreciate that he was knowledgeable about the ingredients. Would maybe give them another shot if they had vegan options for the fam, but as it stands we're taking this place off our list
