    Easy to find and with friendly and helpful staff. Great concept honoring first responders. Sandwiches are delicious and generous and lots of seating inside and outside. Parking is plentiful. Right off Mira Mesa Blvd.

    It may have been a miscommunication on the workers part, but I asked if I could have my sandwich wrapped so I don't get my pickle spear by my sandwich and I got my bun wrapped with sauce and my brisket and cheddar in a different container. Despite that everything was still tasty.

    I love supporting my firefighters, but like rip at what cost. Ordered online and they forgot the meat, so I just had a sandwich with no meat. Wasn't too upset, because I too have forgotten to add meat when making my own sandwich at home. But damn the man on the phone didn't even feel bad. I don't blame king if he's making minimum wage he probably dgafs, but ya tragic he could've acted like he cared.

    I came by this location today and tried the Italian sub. The service was good when ordering. The ambiance was on par for a chain style resturant. Theres ample parking, as its in a shopping center plaza. The food was ok and service matched. I would try again.

    I got a small sammich just to try it out and I wasn't really impressed with this place. I got turkey breast, provolone cheese, shredded lettuce, cucumbers and banana peppers toasted on garlic bread. I could not taste the garlic bread at all and my sammich was barely warm so they didn't really toast it. My biggest complaint about this sammich is how wet it was. It was dripping nonstop and was kinda gross after a while. I also wish they gave slices of cucumbers instead of little itty bitty cutup pieces. The pickle they gave on the side was decent. While the ingredients were fresh, the execution did not hit the spot for me.

    The sandwich was so amazing!!! I loved that the veggie sandwich was a hot sandwich, the cheese was on nice and melted and had a nice stretch to it! The veggies they used tasted very fresh and the pickle was so crisp! Not only did I enjoy my sandwich, I also enjoyed my experience as a whole. The staff was very helpful and walked me through all the ingredients that would be on my sandwich without me asking, which I appreciated. They were very quick to have the food made and the food visually looked delicious too. There was plenty of seating and the noise levels were low. It was a very chill place to eat my lunch.

    Food was decent, but this is their small. This was $8.50 after tax... I audibly laughed when I saw it. I was even going to ask if someone ate half of it on accident. The service was good. The workers were nice. But I can't justify coming back here at these prices. You can go to Jersey Mikes and get double the size for just a few dollars more

    Here's my take on this place: High quality sandwich that tastes good, but very small for the price. I got the Hook & Ladder on wheat. I enjoyed my sandwich, but noticed it was considerably smaller than when I had it years ago. I guess with inflation, prices go up but size goes down. A medium was a little over $10 after tax. Definitely order a large if you plan on sharing or if you're hungry!

    Firehouse subs was a new experience for me. I had never heard of this restaurant before and was very curious to try! I ordered a Philly cheese steak sub on rye bread with mozzarella cheese. My sub was pretty good. The flavors were well complemented and the sub was a good-sized portion. I also had a chocolate chip cookie that was pretty basic. This spot is pretty popular. There were a wide range of menu options, to satisfy any pallet. Tasty subs!!

    I've had a sandwich twice from Cali Baguette Express this week! My friend brought me a barbecue…read morepork sandwich earlier in the week and it was delicious. Better than the restaurants I've been going to. So when another friend was hungry, I said to meet here. This time I had a chicken sandwich. Although it wasn't as good as the pork, the bread was perfectly baked soft, yet crispy, and the veggies were tangy, slightly sweet with a nice crunch. It was a scorching day and we sat next to a cool fan. As we sat there taking advantage of being indoors, I watched the young lady behind the counter. The line was consistent and the service was extremely efficient, what stood out was the exceptional service the young lady gave to all the customers. She knew many by name and they knew her. She was so friendly and helpful to everyone and went above and beyond. I observed her insisting on rewrapping an item for someone to "keep it fresh." She was very kind to us as well and asked how we liked our food as we finally decided to leave. I'm confident I will also know her name because I will definitely return!

It's a great meal that doesn't feel heavy afterwards and it's healthy. I need to try other dishes here, but the Salmon Bowl hasn't done me wrong yet.

It was a very friendly atmosphere.

    I was working in San Diego for a couple of days, and on my second day there, I wanted to get lunch…read morenearby. As I was scrolling through Google Maps to find a suitable lunch spot, I spotted this Urbane Cafe on the southwest corner of Mira Mesa and Camino Santa Fe. I started going to Urbane Cafe when they opened a location early last year close to where I live, and I've tried making a habit of visiting different cafes to see how they compare to one another, offering my support in good ways and, sadly enough, bad. I had more than enough points on my rewards account largely in part due to a catering order from last year, and after a few more orders, I had enough points for a free sandwich, salad, or bowl. My usual go-to at any Urbane Cafe, especially on my first visit to a new location (to me, at least), is a Salmon Bowl, which happens to be their most expensive entree on their menu. However, they had a special for the Garlic Sesame Steak Bowl for the same price as the Salmon Bowl. Having tried the Salmon Bowl several times this past year, most recently at Long Beach Bixby, I welcomed the change and was intent on ordering the Garlic Sesame Steak Bowl. Well, I tried to do it on the app, but for some reason, it wasn't letting me use my points for the special bowl even though the word "bowl" was present in "free sandwich, salad, or bowl". I then swapped out the special bowl for the Salmon Bowl, but again, the ordering platform run by Thanx wasn't letting me use my points for even my go-to! I almost thought about going somewhere else for lunch, but decided maybe I should try going there to see if the reward could be redeemed in person. As soon as I entered, I was facing the order counter, but nobody was behind it. I did hear Sienna say she'd be right with me as she was handling the orders by the pickup shelves. She came over and asked if I was picking up an order, which I would have been if the app were functioning properly. With the Garlic Sesame Steak Bowl being advertised vividly in front of the register, I asked Sienna if I could redeem my points for that bowl. Sure enough, it did, but why it wouldn't work in the app completely befuddled me as it was the first time I've ever experienced such a discrepancy at ordering the same item online vs in person. I ordered for here, and Sienna gave me a numbered stand. I also got a water cup to supplement my meal. The drink dispenser is located at the rear of the cafe. However, they only had lids, but no cups for the sriracha and cholula sauces! Wait, didn't this happen before? Oh yes, at the Oceanside location when I visited late last year! So it seems a lack of cups for their hot sauces isn't uncommon at Urbane then. As a result, I chose to sit at the community table closest to the rear counter so I wouldn't have to walk far to retrieve a sauce bottle. No joke, my order was ready within 5 minutes as Sienna simply turned around and handed me my Garlic Sesame Steak Bowl alongside a fork and a few napkins. Usually when I get my order this quickly, I get a little skeptical about the flavor in the bowl. Luckily, there was still a good amount of sesame flavor in the bowl, but I still had to go up not once, but twice to retrieve a bottle of sriracha sauce to add to the bowl. And the sauce was pretty liquid-y that I probably should have chosen the cholula instead. I feel I could have enjoyed the bowl more had I waited a minute or two longer, but I was satisfied with the bowl nonetheless as the steak tasted fresh off the grill; the veggies and rice tasted fresh too. They could have added more Japanese chili dressing though. As for the focaccia bread that supplemented my bowl? Well, there's room for improvement. Out of the 6 Urbane Cafes I've now been to so far, I'm sad to say this was the second worst bread I've had. The flavor was at a bare minimum, and I even chomped on something pretty hard in the bread, though since I was scooping up some of the leftover sauce from my bowl, I'm willing to say the culprit came from the Garlic Sesame Steak. Since I ordered for here, I wasn't sure if I was supposed to take the empty bowl to the waste bin, so I asked Precious, and she simply took it for me. Didn't actually answer my question, so next time I dine in, I'll have to ask again lol. Precious did seem precious from my little interaction with her. Service was good overall, but kind of slow since they seemed short on staff. Neither Sienna nor Precious checked up on any other customers who had ordered, but I do know they were handling customers' orders both at the front counter and by the pickup shelves. There were a lot of pickup orders, so it'd be understandable, though there was some down time that they'd just chat with each other as well as another employee on the other side of the counter. Overall, I was satisfied enough with my lunch that I'm willing to give 4 stars, but the little things like the lack of sauce cups and even the app glitching can be bothersome...

It has yummy toppings - a huge dollop of goat cheese, fresh peaches, almonds, pickled onions, mint, hot citrus honey. For sides, I like the curry couscous (kick of spice!), rainbow kale salad (super tangy), and basil pesto shells (solid pesto with parm and feta and sun dried tomatoes). I like their chips too, classic potato chips or mama zuma's habanero chips (actually the spiciest chips EVER! I only eat a few at a time lol).
