I really like this place that has become and institution really. Great atmosphere. Comfortable and…read morecool without being pretentious. I love their cinnamon buns but this time I did not order one. My friend and I came here for supper. It was delicous. I had the Red Curry Laksa with prawns, PEI mussels, bok choy, carrots, bell peppers, red onions, vermicelli noodles, red coconut curry sauce, and cilantro. My friend had the falafel and fries. I loved my Red Curry Laksa. It was fresh and rich. Loved the red coconut curry sauce. The seafood was a decent portion. My friend liked her falafal but it definately wasn't the best she has had and was eyeing up my curry. Service was OK. I feel like because we didn't order alcoholic beverages, we didn't get service as much as the tables that did. That won't prevent me from coming here again.

It was only my second time to Sugarbowl in my many years in Edmonton. I don't really remember my…read morefirst time though!! I had their mac and cheese and the lamb burger. Both were so very tasty, and did not disappoint. The ambiance of the restaurant is different than many places I've gone to. Being close to the University of Alberta main campus, many young students compose the clientele of Sugarbowl, but not limited to. The decor is very nice - brick walls and posters, and hand written beer menu, to name a few. Service was very good, professional, and friendly!! Overall good experience, and will return again in the future.

Very misleading hours posted we showed up there at 9:41 and were told that they were closing soon…read moreand that they shut their kitchen down at 9:45pm & that they had already done last call for food for the night. They were still willing to serve us food to go though when my friend initially asked for menus they said to go? . Super disappointing we drove a half an hour to make it on time and rushed and everything thinking that an hour and 20 minutes before it closes is more than enough time for a quick Dinner service for two people and obviously we're not a-holes so when the entire staff is ready to just shutter early and leave, we're not gonna be the two people that insist that they stay open. The guy working there was really nice to my friend apparently though. So nothing against the staff personally or anything. Oh, and the gazebo is getting wild. There's some guy out there screaming about cutting some girl named Kristen's head off so if there's any violent crimes tonight, we're audible witnesses lol

The interior is beautiful exposed brick, warm grey chairs and banquets. Very comfortable and chic. The hostess and wait staff are friendly and extremely helpful with suggestions. For brunch I had the short rib benedict, atomic blond cocktail, and coffee. All were very good. For dinner I had the focaccia with whipped ricotta, a sazerac, the gnoochi, and an affogato for dessert. The whipped ricotta was the suggested appetizer by my server and of my goodness I could have crawled right into it--absolutely get that! If I went back to Edmonton for a visit I was definitely go back.

Probably the best i had in the city. The Next Act is non descript with the decor. It does have a nice patio if you are able to snag a spot. Our server was prompt and attentive. Food came out quickly despite the full restaurant. This time I tried The Pyro with habanero cream cheese, bacon, crispy onions, jalapeños, and chipotle mayo. Hubby ordered The Critic - smoked cheddar, bacon, caramelized onions, and bbq sauce Our friend ordered The Scout - jack cheese, chimichurri, crispy onions, avocado, and roasted garlic mayo We all chose the fries as a side. It was delicous. And this time the fries were great and not soggy. My burger was delicious. If you like heat, this one is for you. Both other people at the table enjoyed their burger as well. I saw someone have the mac and cheese, and that looked delicous. However I don't think I can skip the burger and order something else.

The fries are too greasy, and tasted like if you ordered New York Fries on Temu. The tater tots are better, but good luck trying to scoop them up out of the box. Pulled pork poutine was really plain, dry, just cardboardy. The best was simple curds and gravy, could actually taste the gravy, which was a little sweet. Stick to the simple stuff. Served in an annoying container with a cheap bamboo fork that barely has tines. Maybe less money on man-child advertising and more on quality ingredients. What a waste of cheese curds!

So I am rating this purely on the Lobster boil we attened. The place was sold out and so it was…read moresuper busy. The waitress though did her best to get drink orders. However service was blunt and not the friendly atmosphere that we are use to here. And since there was only one item on them menu, the food actually came out quickly. Food was okay. Lobster was good considering it needed to be flown in and they were on the bigger side. Corn was excellent. Potatoes were undercooked and the mussels were overcooked. It was hard to take them off the shell because they were that shrivelled. And the biscuits were terrible. They were an afterthought. Dry and sandy in texture. I would come back here for a restaurant for sure because we sure enjoyed the food. And they have teh best lobster rolls. But I wouldn't come back for the price point for the boil. ( I think it was close to 70 bucks a person). I will just grab my own lobster and make sure my potatoes are cooked.

One of the best things about Urban Diner is that they have their own parking lot. Street parking is difficult to find in this popular area of the city. I've nearly always been able to find a parking spot in their lot. Today I ordered the sandwich special which was a schnitzel burger with the daily soup instead of fries. It was nice, not extraordinary, but good. My guest had the breakfast special which was a schnitzel bennie. It looked really good and she enjoyed it. I've never had a bad meal here. I really appreciate the fact that it's not too noisy here. Too many cafes are so loud that it's hard to carry on a conversation. The Urban Diner certainly isn't quiet, but it's quiet enough to hear your guests talking. The service was quick and friendly. Prices were reasonable but not cheap. In the Highstreet area of Edmonton, this is probably one of the more reasonably priced cafes. The coffee was good and includes free refills. I'll definitely be back again and I can always recommend Urban Diner to anyone looking for unique dishes.

We were all thumbs up on the coffee, and all of us LOVED the ambiance. It's so fun looking at all the stuff on the walls. I'd love to come back for lunch if I'm back in town again but this visit was for brekkie. I was a bit nervous when the eggs bennie came and the hollandaise was technicolor orange because that is the only thing my friend ever orders for breakfast and is a connoisseur. However, they seemed totally satisfied with them so my fears were unfounded. The food is simple = but good. I don't know what they put in the pancakes but they were MAGICAL. I could not stop raving about them. If it was a mix they must have been laughing at me in the back :D Some of the best pancakes I have ever had. The waitress was EXACTLY what I hope for at a diner. If you know, you know, honey. Please never change Route 99!
