Cheesey goodness! I was greeted promptly and received my food pretty fast. I took my food to go. When I got home, I pulled the sandwich apart and you can see the cheese pull apart. It reminds me of those food commercials with the seductive music HaHa! The side of Mac and cheese was a little bland but all in all, I'd be back. read more

Especially considering how much you're paying for a sandwich now. I will say, though, that this location is usually pretty clean. One thing I've also noticed is that they often seem understaffed. I've seen the same employee taking orders at the register, bringing food out to tables, and even going over to the bar to serve beer. They're definitely multitasking, and I can appreciate how hard they're working to keep things running. It's unfortunate because this used to be one of our regular spots, but between the higher prices and the decline in food quality, it's been hard to justify coming back as often.

I recently visited Craters Grilled Cheese, and I must say, it was a delightful experience! The restaurant has a cozy, casual atmosphere that makes you feel right at home as soon as you walk in. The decor is fun and quirky, with space-themed elements that add a unique touch. Now, let's talk about the grilled cheese sandwiches - the star of the show. The menu offers a wide variety of options, from classic cheddar to more adventurous combinations like brie with caramelized onions and fig jam. I tried the "Galactic Gouda," which featured smoked gouda, bacon, and a tangy BBQ sauce. It was perfectly grilled, with a crispy exterior and gooey, flavorful filling. The sides are just as impressive. The tomato basil soup was rich and comforting, a perfect complement to the sandwich. The sweet potato fries were crispy read more

Stopped into this place last week - I wasn't even looking for a grilled cheese, but why not?! There is more than the typical grilled cheese sandwich and a ton of unique options. Despite those options, I ordered a basic grilled cheese, the Texas grilled cheese, an order of onion rings, and a cup of tomato soup to dip my sandwich. The Texas grilled cheese definitely was tasty. The bread was crispy on the outside and the cheese was nice and gooey on the inside. The onion rings were also really good. I think only 5 come in an order, but they are pretty big and worth trying. If you don't want a grilled cheese sandwich, they have hamburgers and appetizers also. read more

My favorite is a Baja bowl and the young cashier asked me, for here or to go? I said for here. She said "I've already selected it to-go but can you eat it here?" I said, can it please be for here? She cancelled the transaction and reordered it, so I assumed she had corrected it to have my meal in peace at the restaurant. My food arrives in a paper plate, with a lid, and bread in an aluminum foil. I'm from Ventura, CA. Urbane Cafe is my comfort food. I've been going here for years and it shocked me to know that I couldn't have my meal in a proper plate. Promptly, I called Armando over, the manager, and I asked him, "is there a cut-off time where customers cannot eat for here?" He answered, "no there isn't. Do you want me to make it for here?" I shook my head and I replied, "I already told the cashier, and it seems like she still chose to make my food to go. That's not okay" He apologizes and walks away. I wanted to brush it off until the family next to me gets their food. It's served, again, with paper plates but this time with no lids. I couldn't help, but ask the family and they confirmed that they also asked to have their meal for here. So I immediately recognize, this is a management problem. I walk to Armando, introduce myself, shake his hand, and I confront him and ask "I thought you said there was no cut off time for people to have their meals here, why are you serving paper plates to the guests?" He answered, it's because we are closing and so that the dishwasher doesn't have dishes to wash. I asked "is this a new protocol?" And Armando, said no it's just for tonight. To the general manager: when someone is having a bad day, people go where they know there will be at peace. The peace comes from the safety of knowing what you will expect. Because of the laziness, lack of leadership and poor work ethic at this store, it breaks the trust of those who rely on the high standards that Urbane Cafe has worked so hard to uphold. Since my food was already made to go, I was not welcomed to stay so I left. Might as well have to gone to The Habit next door.

Oscar was a great representative of this restaurant and was quick to correct a simple mistake. He whipped up two delicious burgers and two orders of fries. We Will definitely return!

This place was VERY good! My husband and I absolutely loved their burgers and fries. We didn't try…read morethe milkshake because we aren't really milkshake people but we ARE burger people. I always say that a burger needs to stand out from other "traditional" burger places, and the ingredient that stood out to me the most was the pickles. The pickles were most definitely house-pickled, and they had such a good kick to the burger! We loved them. After our first bite, my husband and I looked at each other because we immediately noticed that the pickles were different. Then we took our second bite, and it was just a great explosion of flavor in your mouth. We were actually the second customers there, so our burgers were made fresh right after we ordered. The guy working was by himself at the time, taking orders and making the food, so I definitely recommend being patient if you visit when they're short-staffed. Someone came in after us and was told there would be about a 30-minute wait, and I honestly completely understood. He was doing everything himself! We also talked about going back to try their onion rings and maybe even giving their milkshake a shot. Our drink of choice this time was a Michelada, and they use Clamato, which was a HUGE plus for me. I personally can't stand Michis made with Bloody Mary mix. This one was tasty and paired perfectly with our burgers. Overall, we had a really good experience and a delicious meal. If you're coming to Swagyu, I recommend bringing a little patience and optimism. You're getting fresh food, and it's worth the wait!

I've been…read morefollowing their social media handle for some time since they are in a different location every week. They finally had a pop up near South Park last night by Thorn Brewery so braved the rain to finally to try the much-anticipated burgers and boyyyyy!! It did not disappoint!! I got the Cheesy Charlie which is pretty much a double double and I loved how the onions were infused into the patty but a slight crunch I enjoyed. Burgers were so flavorful and the right amount of greasy! I tried their homemade banging sauce and it was banginnn! It tasted like a mix of ranch, Mayo, and other bright flavors to complement the burger well. Overall, these guys work really hard to setup and break down their tents so go support them!! You won't regret it
