This cafe is such a hidden gem in West Covina. Located behind the mall, they serve protein bowl, sandwiches, and cookies. The ambiance is chill and welcoming, as well as the friendly staff when they bring my order. I tried their pastrami tri-tip sandwich with the salad. The sandwich and the salad are elevated in both the presentation and the flavor. The sandwich has a huge size with thick layer of meat combined with coleslaw and swiss cheese that enhance the flavor while keeping its juiciness, while the salad comes out fresh with a little touch of ranch dressing. I highly recommend this place and I am willing to come back to try their other dishes. P.s. sorry no pictures because I was too hungry to eat the sandwich read more

Taken by surprise! Popped in here after a visiting the hospital for a quick dinner. The food was very good and tasted fresh. There are great healthy options throughout the whole menu. The side salad with the sandwich was my favorite!!! The mandarin oranges are a perfect addition. We got to try a few cookies. The chocolate chip was my favorite!! The staff were welcoming and friendly. The restaurant was clean and had lots of seating options (high top, regular table) and numerous tables for when it gets busy. read more

Urbane Cafe - Pesto & Sundried Tomato - so good, especially the side salad!! - Sandwiches Near Me - West Covina, California

Found a hair in my salad today. I had to stop eating it and throw the whole thing away, which was really disappointing because the food actually tasted good up until that point. I understand mistakes happen, but this is a basic food safety issue and shouldn't be overlooked. Hoping the team pays closer attention to hygiene moving forward. Update: The restaurant reached out and issued a full refund for my order. I appreciate them taking responsibility and resolving the issue quickly. While the experience was concerning, their customer service was responsive. +1 extra star read more

Urbane Cafe - Hair in food - Sandwiches Near Me - West Covina, California

As I've been trying to be healthier, my boyfriend gets dragged to eat bunny food with me. He found Urbane Café while we were running errands in West Cobina area to grab lunch. When we entered, there were 2 kiosks for customers to order from. After browsing their menu, my boyfriend decides on the Santa Maria BBQ Chicken ($12.95) with Chipotle Ranch dressing on the side, substituting the goat cheese for mozzarella cheese and I ordered The Café Salad ($12.75) with Balsamic dressing, substituting the goat cheese for mozzarella cheese, and no bread. Upon checking out with the kiosk, you enter one of the numbers for the orders by the kiosk, take the number with you and seat yourself at any table. A few of the tables were dirty, so we looked around until we found a clean one. The food was prepared in a decent amount of time. It tasted healthy. Nothing too exciting but it served its' purpose. At first they forgot the avocado from my salad and ended up bringing it on the side. Oh I'm also glad they put my dressing on the side even though I didn't ask for it to be because the container was too much dressing for the salad. Would consider coming back here for a healthy-ish meal. Not so much for enjoyment. The pricing is also reasonable for quality ingredients. read more

Easy ordering experience and yummy food! Came here on a weeknight and was craving fish, so we ordered the seared ahi tuna bowl and a salmon bowl to share. Both were well portioned and very flavorful! Each bowl was about $16 after tax, but for the amount of food it was pretty worth the price. I also loved the focaccia- fresh and fluffy! You order on a self-serve tablet in the front (there are two), grab a table number, and sit anywhere in the restaurant. There's ample seating and a fair amount of lot parking (they share parking with Gen BBQ and California Fish Grill) so the whole experience was fairly easy! Would come back! read more

Urbane Cafe - Seared Ahi Tuna Bowl, Salmon Bowl - Sandwiches Near Me - West Covina, California

Everything was good and made to order. We got the salmon bowl with the aioli on the side and the other bowl is a protein bowl. Everything was cooked well, but my salmon was warm-room temp- wish it was hot. The salmon had a slide sweet and savory glaze The protein bowl was made very well and the plate was hot. We also got the kids pizza but my child did not like it as much, but he did enjoy the chicken from the protein bowl. The place is clean and the worker that took our order was very nice. All plates are a fair price and plates are a good size for one person. read more

Delicious food at fair prices! Love Urbane Cafe for its healthy options! This is my second time here, and this time I ordered the high protein bowl since I'm on a health and fitness kick! It's pretty delicious, and flavorful. What I like about this place is that it is spacious, and clean. The service here is friendly, and you can order in person, or via kiosk. read more

Urbane Cafe - Baja Bowl cleaned out! - Sandwiches Near Me - West Covina, California

I've been here before, but I'm writing this review because I decided to give Urban Cafe another chance, and unfortunately it didn't change my mind. Overall, it's just nothing special. The food isn't bad by any means, but it's also not exciting or memorable, especially for the price. The portions are small for what you're paying, and that's really the biggest issue. Either the portion sizes need to increase or the prices need to come down, because right now it just doesn't feel worth it. This time I ordered the chimichurri steak and also tried the pastrami over the chimichurri steak. Both were fine, but nothing that made me want to come back or crave it again. The flavors didn't really pop, and nothing had that "wow" factor that makes you think about the meal later. The salad that comes with it was honestly a joke, especially considering the price point. I ordered through DoorDash because I didn't want to wait, and while the food arrived fine, it just reinforced that this place is more average than anything else. I will say the staff was very nice when I picked up my order, and it wasn't busy at the time, which I appreciated. Parking, however, was a bit frustrating. Even though it looks like there's front row parking in the photos, that was after I had already picked up my food and taken pictures. When I arrived, parking was a hassle and I had to park farther than expected just to grab my order. I really wish I could say this is a solid addition to West Covina, but I'd honestly rather drive a couple of minutes to Porto's and get an amazing sandwich that never fails and costs at least seven dollars less. Unfortunately, this just isn't a place I plan on coming back to. The ambient was good enough for people to dine in. There was a couple people I would say like four parties. read more

I ordered from here or eaten dine in a handful of times by now. My go to is the club or the bbq chicken sandwich. I really like the apple slaw on that one. The bread is always soft and fresh tasting, the ingredients in the sandwiches are well balanced, the side salad is a nice touch and a great addition to the meal. Service is always quick and friendly. The inside of the restaurant is kept clean, as well. read more

Wow! I've passed by this cafe all the time and thought it was just another Panera. I was wrong! Really a great healthy bowl option and the cookies are divine. It's a casual sit down. You're greeted by the self serve kiosk and a welcome from the staff which is appreciated. There are high tables behind the kiosk but it looks like there's regular sit down further in. The place is clean. I love how the orders online is at the end of the open kitchen concept.. not sure if that's a staff only area. Anyway, it's worth going to if you want something quick and healthy. On the expensive side but I mean what isn't now a days! Ok happy eating (: read more

Lunch visit. They have two tablet style kiosks to place your order, or you can still order in-person, which is my preference (I like speaking with someone). The staff was friendly, the dining area was clean, and there's plenty of indoor seating, as well as some outdoor seating. Parking is plentiful in the private lot. The menu isn't huge, but they have a good selection of sandwiches and salads, as well as a Tomato Bisque and a soup of the day. The focaccia bread is baked fresh, and all the ingredients on the sandwiches were of good quality. My wife and I tried the Chimichurri Steak sandwich ($13.55), which comes with a small side salad dressed with a balsamic vinaigrette and mandarin orange slice, however we opted to substitute for a cup of soup (+$4.35). She had a cup of the Tomato Bisque (served warm), and I had the Baja Enchilada Soup, which was served hot and tasted fantastic! Our order came out quickly and except for the Tomato Bisque being "just warm", everything was very good. They offer "Batch Craft Soda" products and Coke/Diet Coke from a dispenser, as well as Old Fashioned Lemonade and two types of Agua Frescas. Overall, the service was good, the food was flavorful, and it's only 5 minutes from home, so I'm sure we'll be stopping by again. read more

Urbane cafe is sooooo good. I love everything about them. this is what panera is trying to be and they can't even come close. The salads are amazing and i recommend the cilantro chicken!! it also comes with a quarter slice of their focaccia, which is baked fresh everyday. I usually order an extra side of focaccia and their red pepper hummus to take home and have it as a snack the following day. Parking is shared , but there's plenty of it. read more

I've driven by this spot so decided to stop in for lunch snd wasn't disappointed. The location appeared to be well maintained, clean, and esthetically pleasant. The staff were warm, welcoming, and friendly. Now for the food, I had the salmon bowl, it was fresh, delicious, healthy, and just well crafted. The menu looks amazing, I'll have to come back and try other entries. read more

I always get the chimichurri steak sandwich because it tastes the best. The sandwich comes in two halves and a small salad. The salad has 2 pieces of orange and was premixed with vinaigrette. There's plenty of seating inside and outside the restaurants. There's restroom for each gender in the back of the restaurant. read more

This was my first time coming to the West Covina location. I got the current special "a really good fish sandwich". Everything was excellent. The fish was tender and not dry. I felt like there weren't a lot of seating at this location. I had to sit all the way at the back and it was a little dark. However, everything tasted great. read more

I was looking for a new spot for Sunday brunch. This café cane up and have to say the salads and sanwhiches were good but not for the cost. It was rather expensive but do recommend for those who want to try something new. The service was fast and ambiance was casual but a bit loud. read more

My wife has Celiac Disease and can not consume gluten. I had heard that this cafe was gluten-friendly and had its own gluten-free bread. My wife and I ordered two sandwiches, the Pesto & Sundried Tomato, along with the Southwest, on their gluten-free bread. I was blown away by how delicious each of their sandwiches were and how amazing the gluten-free bread was. As a person who can consume gluten, I would rather have their gluten-free bread than their original bread, which is how delicious it is. I highly recommend this place for gluten-sensitive people and non-gluten-sensitive people. Their food is Amazing and reasonably priced. I also forgot to mention they have an assortment of craft sodas with flavors such as snozberry and shirley temple, along with agua frescas in watermelon and dragon fruit flavor. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about allergies, making sure not to cross-contaminate the breads. I will definitely be back. read more

I've been living in West Covina for 2 years now and didn't know about Urbane Cafe. I was searching for healthy places to eat after the gym, I came across Urbane Cafe. I went into the restaurant and it had a nice selection of menu items. The manager on duty recommended their new Steak Bowl, I had to get a chocolate chips cookie as well. Let me tell you that Steak bowl was delicious, it did not disappoint. The cookie was nice and warm. The restaurant was clean, service was excellent, and the food was delicious. I will be returning again and next time I will be ordering a Chimichurri that was recommended by the manager. Thank you for the great service. read more

Love this place! this is the second time we experience this restaurant and it doesn't disappoint. I ordered through yelp/group hub, ordering was so easy. My guy ordered a southwest sandwich and I ordered the BBQ Tri tip and it was amazing. Also ordered dessert, the double chocolate chip cookie. When picking up the order the staff were nice and welcoming, very good vibes there. The order on the app said 4:40-5pm but it usually is ready 10 min before so I called in and for sure it was ready. I would recommend it's like a healthier option but a delicious one. They have plenty of options including soups and drinks. If you haven't tried the blood Orange drink I recommend it. read more

The place has inside and outside seating, it's perfect for a conversation with friends. I ordered at the counter and waited for it to be brought to our table. The food is freshly made to order and is a healthy choice . The Pesto chicken was good, but I should have added salt or a splash of salsa for more flavoring. The salmon bowl was also good but again needed a little flavor. Overall the food is good and fresh. read more

I love the chimichurri steak sandwich here, it hit every note. I first tried their catering (Pasadena) and ate the inside of it since it wasn't gluten free. It was so good that I wanted to go to an in person location. I found out they had gluten free bread and it was incredible! It reminded me of bolillo which I have not had in ages so soft and stretchy. Definitely planning to come here again! I ordered my meal for take out, but I would dine in. The staff were helpful and friendly. It seemed like a chill relaxed spot to eat. I love to go to Pasadena to eat, but it's cool to add this spot in West Covina on the map. read more

Service: 4 stars Food: 3 stars Since my last review, I have visited Urbane Cafe a few times in-between. It pains me to lower my review, but the last 2 visits have been disappointing (tonight tops it), food quality-wise and portion (of course). With raising costs, restaurants now, of course, either raise prices or have smaller portions - which I totally understand but the quality of the "sashimi grade ahi tuna" simply does not live up to "sashimi grade" especially if that is on your menu. Our favorite (of all time) item to order is the Seared Ahi Tuna Bowl, but tonight was just beyond disappointing that we now need to find another item on the menu to order from next time. Seared Ahi Tuna Bowl $13.95 Sashimi grade ahi tuna, mixed whole grain rice, marinated kale, edamame, cucumbers, red radish, grape tomatoes, pickled white radish, sesame seeds. Served with creamy ponzu and sushi sauce drizzle. Complimentary Urbane focaccia bread upon request. At least 3 tuna slices were torn in the middle (not a whole slice since they were torn), but a total of 5 slices were inedible, they were hard to chew, the tendon. At this point, our Japanese supermarket sashimi is better quality than Urbane Cafe... Food-wise, the taste is still great and the ingredients are fresh, except for the tuna. Customer service is still great. My online order is always ready by the selected pick-up time and there are always parking either right in front of the restaurant, pick-up only spots, or spots to the side. read more

Perfection! As always, I am happy to come here. The staff is amazing and very welcoming. Thank you, Elizabeth (I hope I didn't get the name wrong Lizbeth or Elizabeth; I'm pretty sure it's Elizabeth), for your great customer service and for not letting me leave without trying the new caramel & churro cookie, along with my always-favorite chocolate chip. A special shout-out to Rigo, who I believe is the manager, he is great! Truly, the entire team is wonderful. Keep it up! And once again, thank you for the excellent and exceptional service, as well as the delicious food. read more

Reminds be of an in-between Panera and Mendocino Farms. I love the club and the salads are great. Enchilada soup was good. Not too heavy but still hearty. You can order online or in person. It's not that long of a wait if you order in person. I don't drink soda but they had cool artisan style sodas in the fountain. read more

Enjoyed dining in at Urbane Cafe on a Sunday afternoon. The place is spacious. Plenty of tables and chairs inside as well as outside. Once we came in the restaurant we were greeted by Oscar. Oscar provided excellent customer service. We inquired about food allergies and he was very informative and attentive. He also communicated with the kitchen to check regarding cross contamination. Thank you Oscar! Food was delicious and made fresh. We ordered the Pastrami Tri Tip Sandwich, Pesto Chicken with Salad and Kids Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Fresh Fruits. The Pastrami Tri Trip was cooked well. It was flavorful. The Pesto Chicken was tender and delicious. Grilled Cheese Sandwich with grilled to perfection. All our meals were cooked, grilled and made fresh. The salad was fresh and plentiful while the dressing was tasteful. We will definitely comeback to Urbane Cafe because they serve delicious food while providing excellent customer service. Sometimes that's a rare combination. We can't wait to try other items on their menu. read more

I decided to get food here since I received a coupon in the mail. There's two ordering kiosks (which paper coupons didn't work on) and one regular register. Cassie was really helpful and took our orders at the register. She also gave us some food recommendations and informed us the email list and rewards program would also give coupons. Since the location is new, everything inside is fresh and clean. Plenty of seating both indoors and out. The strip mall it's located in is pretty empty so parking isn't an issue. The menu reminds me of a pared down Panera menu. Sandwiches, salads, soups, fountain drinks, and a handful of cookies. Taste wise,it's way better than Panera. I ordered a TNT sandwich, double chocolate chip cookie, and a drink. I absolutely love that the cookies are kept warmed. Sandwich was a good size and came with a side salad. I'd definitely go back! read more

Stopped by Urbane Cafe in West Covina and had a great experience. I wasn't sure what to order at first, but the tall white man at the cashier was super helpful--he really knew the menu and helped me pick something based on what I was in the mood for. I ended up getting the pesto sandwich and it was fresh and really good. I left feeling really satisfied, both with the food and the overall experience. It's always nice when someone actually takes the time to help instead of just taking your order. Definitely coming back to try more! read more

Hooray! Grand opening is today Urbane Cafe finally came to West Covina I LOVE this restaurant and having been driving a long way simply to eat their salads at a much further location.

Warning!! Their bread is addictive - it's so soft, chewy, and delicious. I was picking up an order here before going to Panera across the street to pick up an online order there too. This is what happens when not everyone in the household wants to eat from the same place. What really stood out for me at Urbane is the staff. They are so welcoming and happy, and seem like they really appreciate you visiting. At Panera, no one greets you and they just hand you your order. It's quite interesting with the night and day difference. At Urbane, I've tried the ahi tuna salad, salmon salad, barramundi fish sandwich, and the chimichurri steak sandwich. Everything was delicious. I did prefer the ahi tuna salad over the salmon salad though. The sandwiches come with a side salad (delicious), and at first look, I did think they were on the smaller side but they are actually quite filling. I thought I would be hungry after eating it. Although the size of the sandwich may be smaller than what I imagined, the quality of ingredients really makes up for it. These are much higher quality that their across-the-street neighbor. I'd highly recommend this restaurant for healthy, delicious sandwiches, salads, and bowls. read more
