Urbane Cafe

I was hungry last night and I wanted something light, so I made a drive to this location. Ambiance felt calm and not too loud as it wasn't packed either. They also have outside seating, so there plenty to sit. Staff was friendly as well. You place your order at the register, then get a number to add to your table. My food did not take long to come out and I was happy about that turn around. I ordered the "Chimichurri steak" it has: tri tip steak, house made chimichurri sauce, feta, arugula, cranberry chutney aioli-- and a house salad on the side. The sandwich itself was very tasty, and I actually added sriracha sauce to it and that made it taste better. I initially thought my sandwich would come with small chunks of steak, but no they were slices of tri-tip. I am used to eating tri tip on the warm side, however, this didn't make a difference since I still enjoyed my sandwich. I'd come back and try their other sandwich selections for sure.Parking lot is big plenty of spaces.

Came here New Year's Day right out of a Barry's workout and starving. I came in wondering how filling this meal would be going off a friend's recommendation.Nobody was in line, I know it's new years so maybe not the best representation of the norm but easy and quick to order and the food came within the time it took me to get drinks lol. Is this fast food?? LolThe Mediterranean bowl was fresh all around from the sweet potatoes to the tomato cucumber salsa. The red pepper hummus.Plenty of seating inside and out on the patio. A huge parking lot in this shopping center. This might be my new spot for healthier protein bowls

Love this location. First came here when it opened and couldn't be happier. Very clean inside, plenty of tables inside and out on the patio facing Verdugo. Love ordering online and picking it up. They are very quick. This time we ordered inside and it was not long before our food was ready. I am a HUGE fan of the Mediterranean Bowl! I got it with the roasted chicken and extra pickled onions. Plenty of parking in the lot. Employees are very friendly.

Friendly staff and delicious food! I usually avoid chains; however, the food was well portioned, well presented, and the staff and aesthetic were very welcoming and comfortable. I enjoyed the Salmon Bowl, the Ahi Tuna Bowl, the Kids Cheese pizza, and the Chimichurri Steak Sandwich. All food was delicious and I will definitely be returning.

(Dined 10/12/24 SA @ 2:00pm): The food served by this cafe was certainly urbane in nature at an affordable price!A final meal with her sister before she went back to the east coast, my dear friend chose Urbane Cafe's Burbank location for something healthy and light... and I agreed with her! This was to be my third meal of the day that started at a baseball field, to Bob's Big Boy, and finally this place. When I worked in Santa Clarita more than a decade ago, I often went to their location on The Old Road. Since then, this was my first time back at any location. Obviously, I liked them, so I was looking forward to this even though I was nearly stuffed. Would this cafe's new-to-me urban location be as good as I remembered it to be!?PURCHASEBundaberg Blood Orange Flavored Sparkling Fruit Drink 12.7floz Bottle ($3.95): I was more partial to their ginger beer for mixing cocktails and such, but I generally liked all of their flavors, and this one had a nice sweetness with a hint of tartness - pucker up! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=rnj1MT3Xr2mZq5GEfboi-QAhi Salad w/Japanese Dressing ($13.95): Crafted with sashimi grade seared ahi, mixed greens, coleslaw mix, avocado, feta cheese, edamame, cucumbers, red radishes, grape tomatoes, and sesame seeds, served with Japanese chili dressing and a piece of fresh baked focaccia bread, this was an extremely welcomed healthy and filling entree (I was already full from two earlier meals). The ahi was plentiful, lightly seasoned, thick, and tasted wonderful! It was succulent and settled nicely on your tongue. The dressing was light with a hint of heat, and paired well with all of the ingredients. The focaccia bread was fluffy and great. I'd honestly buy a full loaf if they had it! A damn good salad! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=z5fjwNwfsT_tP80WT9mYGgSERVICEI was warmly greeted by a friendly young woman behind the counter who quickly took my order (I was sold on the banner that advertised this new dish!). I was immediately given my drink and a table top order number. About five minutes later, my food was delivered to our table and that was it. There was no need for any table service as you threw away your own trash and returned the tray to the rubbish area - easy-peasy!PARKING (FREE)Located within The Ranch at Hollywood & Verdugo outdoor premiere shopping center nestled in close proximity to major entertainment studios that included ABC, NBC, Walt Disney Studios, and Warner Brothers Studios, they shared a spacious lot with several businesses such as CycleBar, Menchies, Verizon, and Western Bagel - 'nuf said!ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCEA spacious boxy layout inside filled with many chairs and tables in addition to a smaller outdoor patio (where we sat) with plenty of chairs & tables and umbrellas for some shade. With the exception of the highly legible and visible menu on the wall next to the order counter once you entered, there was little else of decorations; it was a very clean place. Plenty of natural lighting came through the surrounding glass walls and doors while an assortment of hung and recessed electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were no TVs while pop music quietly played in the background.ATTIRETotally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops.OVERALLBurbank's Urbane Cafe location was a very nice place to enjoy my lovely meal, and I would make sure to return for another (this was also conveniently close to one of the rental properties). It may've been over 10 years since I last ate this brand's food, but all the amazeness quickly came back once I walked in and then took my first bite. The prices were very comparable, the portion size wonderful, and the service was easy and straightforward. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL would-be paid experience was around $20.00 BEFORE any discounts/tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

Once again... I had a very pleasant experience at Urbane Cafe. This location is always spotless, the service is great and of course, the star of the show is their food.We got the Roasted Chicken with Pesto and Sundried Tomato (My Favorite), the Turkey Club, the Cobb Salad with Chicken and a Snickerdoodle and Oatmeal Rasin Cookie. It was all very good. Also, I love there craft beverages!I will be returning!#jshoeats

Cute little chain-type spot that offers lots of fresh, clean, healthy food. Was just what we needed after a sudden airline cancellation and chilly weather. Clean spot with big enough tables to work or bring a little game (like we did). Sweet employees. Great amount of parking in its own lot.

These sandwiches made me realize I need way more focaccia in my life! Truly game changing, everything was so fresh and DELICIOUS I can't wait to come back to try the rest of the menu. My boyfriend ordered the chimichurri steak sandwich and I had the UC banh mi. While imo a banh mi is still best on a classic baguette, this was a very enjoyable and unique way to experience the classic flavors of the sandwich! The atmosphere is bright and casual, order at the counter and take a number to your table style. Our 2 sandwiches took at least 20 minutes to come out but it was worth the wait.

Came here after a workout when I was in the Burbank area. I placed the order online and it was ready quickly. The restaurant makes it easy to find your order and is so neat and organized. The tables looked clean and chairs looked comfy but I ended up taking my order to go. I wanted something healthy and thankfully they have a few vegan options here. I opted for the Mediterranean bowl which came with an optional side of focaccia bread. The bowl was wonderful and just what I needed to have a healthy start to the day and get some plant protein into my diet. I loved the mixture of rice, sweet potatos, kale, cucumbers and tomatoes and everything tasted so fresh. I particularly loved the kale and how the marinade used ensured it wasn't bitter. The standout was the creamy and savory hummus which worked so well with the veggies and rice. I also love the thick bread and it was great to dip in the hummus. The parking was very easy as it's located in a shopping center with ample spaces.

I had been to an Urbane Cafe years and I mean years ago in Agoura. It was not up to my standards. This is the first time I was back at a location that is now much closer to me and they definitely are better now. I was excited to give it another go with the gift card I was gifted for my birthday. My mother and I shared 2 items:-Cilantro Torta (marinated cilantro chicken, avocado, corn & black bean salsa, tomatillo salsa, pepper jack cheese, fresno chilis, pickled onions, chipotle aioli). This also came with an Urbane House Side Salad that had balsamic dressing on it.*I got the aioli, chilis, and cheese on the side. Unfortunately when they brought over the order, they put cheese and aioli on it and forgot the salsa and avo. We brought this to their attention and they truly wanted to make it up to us by either making us a new one or providing us with a freebie to use on our next visit. We took the latter and will be back to try it again. -Salmon Bowl (bbq glazed salmon, mixed whole grain rice, marinated kale, roasted sweet potatoes, edamame, lemon wedge & sweet chili aioli drizzle). *I got the aioli on the side and asked for peanut dressing. This was truly delicious and will be getting it again. For the price and side, it was very shareable. My father got:-Club Sandwich (roasted turkey, Applewood-smoked bacon, avocado, cheddar cheese, sliced tomato, green leaf lettuce, herb aioli)*He told me he enjoyed it and will also be backTo finish off the meal, we all shared 2 cookies:-Heathbar Cookie-Lemon White Chocolate Cookie *Both were heavenlyService was great and while we were there for dinner time on a Thursday evening (8/1/24), it was fairly quiet and easy to find seating to enjoy the meal.
