    Consistent food, good service, loud during rush hours. I wouldn't sit indoor if you're trying to have a conversation over lunch, it is too loud. Outdoor is nice, but can be hot. The chimichurri steak sandwich is delicious, but I had to ask for extra pickled onions because they only put like 3 inside. Literally. The urban fries are my favorite. It's such a delicious combo. The tri tip sandwich you can't go wrong with. The kids meals are delicious, not pictured. My son loved the chicken strips and the turkey and mashed potatoes. I love coming here for their sandwiches, but the star of my cravings are these fries. Would recommend you give it a shot if you've never tried it & like a little kick.

    Not sure why this restaurant has an overall rating of 3 stars. The restaurant is clean, service was fast, and food was delicious so I gave it 5 stars. I made my own salad and added avocados. It was very tasty and had just the right amount of dressing. Portion size was perfect too! My group also got the spicy buffalo chicken sandwich, turkey plate, tomato bisque, garlic fries and urban fries. All very tasty and portion size was great! Will definitely come again to try the other items!

    I haven't been to Jack's Urban Eats in years, probably 7-8 years. This place always appears to be busy with a full parking lot. Inside you order and pay at the counter, staff members prepare your food orders and bring it to your table. I think the order took 10 minutes. I ordered a turkey, cranberry sauce, green apple, Brie cheese, mixed greens and onion sandwich on thick, toasted wheat bread. Sandwich was huge, tasted fresh and all the ingredients were flavorful. I ate half. I also ordered Garlic FrIes which were superb, again very generous serving size for the small order. I brought half of the sandwich and half of the fries home; my eyes were too big. The restaurant is organized with drinks, silverware, napkins and condiments along the east wall. Friendly, professional staff members, kitchen staff and table bussers. What a good experience with great food.

    Haven't been here in awhile but I enjoyed my salad. I created my own with no protein. I added up to 6 toppings - mushrooms, beets x2, corn, jicama, caramelized seeds with arugula and dill dressing. Loved the caramelized seeds were really good. Staff were friendly. Parking is ok but it gets busy around lunch. Love their outdoor seating.

    Tri tip with mashed, mac, and cozy bread
    Alan J.

    Came here on a wednesday evening around 6pm. When we arrived, it wasn't too busy. We were able to get served quickly and plenty of seating was available. It was a warm spring evening.So the outdoor seating was enjoyable. We had a tri tip plate with mashed potatoes, cheesy bread and mac and cheese. I don't know if it's me or the food at jack's.Just doesn't seem to be flavored.As well as it used to be. I found the tri tip without too much flavor the mac and cheese was not cheesy and it also came out cold.And the mashed potatoes were good, except the gravy didn't have a lot of flavor to it. The cheesy bread was excellent. We also had a salmon cobb and a chicken teriyaki salad. Heard the same thing about the salmon and the chicken. More flavor/spices please.

    mac and pulled pork

    First time here and it was a great menu and selections. The service was very quick and professional. They were quick putting together our lunch! The ambiance is very modern and clean. All staff members were very helpful! Give this restaurant a chance, you won't be disappointed! We enjoyed our lunch!

    We met a friend for lunch here at Jack's Urban Eats. We came in and it was busy. We grabbed a menu and looked it over while in line to order. You get to watch the young chefs make other people's salads and sandwiches while waiting. As you make it to the cashier, that's when we made our order. We paid and received the order number sign so they can find you! The inside were completely full of people. We ended up eating outside!! We enjoyed our build our own salad options. You get to pick your greens options and then six other add ons. Then you may pay for the protein of your choice option. Our friend had the blackened salmon salad. We were told it was excellent!! We built our own and it was delicious as well. We were done eating and just catching up on life when a young man came and asked us if he could take our dishes. He was very friendly and said he also enjoyed the salads here as well. Overall, a refreshing healthier options for eating out for us. Friendly staff. Shared parking with other businesses. Clean bathroom was a BONUS for us. Prices are competitive with other eateries. We will be back....

    Let's call this visit our "Do Over"! Food was much better this time. Hubby had his usual favorite Turkey Plate with mashed potatoes, & Mac n cheese. He had to tell the cashier Chris 5 several times that he wanted dark thigh meat. Another cashier explained it & showed carver what to give us. He said it was the best he's had here. I had a chicken club and it was perfect! I added your bomb cranberry sauce to it & devoured it. The ambiance was the usual, good but a little loud. Thank you!

    Garlic fries
    Theresa G.

    We came on a rainy Friday afternoon. They were busy but not crazy. Plenty of parking with lots of room for eat in or to go. You order and then they give you a number and take to your table. They have soda machine, teas and wine as well as beer. We ordered the mac and cheese as well as garlic fried. Buffalo chicken sandwich and the Asian chicken salad. The small fries plate was big with lots of garlic and crispy. The Mac was and cheese was creamy but did need more salt and pepper in our opinion. My Asian chicken salad was light and juicy yet very filling. We had some Chardonnay with our food and the chicken sandwich was great. Nice staff and efficient service.

    Chimichurri Steak Sandwich
    Casey D.

    Very spacious restaurant with a bunch of seating. You go in and order at the front and you pick your own table. I thought the place was very clean and maintained. We ordered the Urban fries to share and I got my own Chimichurri Steak sandwich. The fries were too salty for my taste, but they were crispy and blue cheese was good. I really liked the sandwich, it came with a fair amount of meat. Everything paired nicely together with the acidity of the onion and bitterness of the arugula with the steak, cheese, and aioli. I also like this spot because it's next to Handels, and you could get ice cream after.

    Turkey Pozole Soup
    Chad S.

    Friends from Sac just loved to Vegas have always talked about Jacks urban eats. It one of their favorite local spots to each. So just happen they back visiting and able to have lunch with them post race day. Guess only local chain. They have few locations throughout Sac. I went to the Elk Grove location. I like set up open area find spot. U go up counter order then they bring food. Great about kitchen open area. Some things thinking soup of the day made it easier open kitchen see the soup. It exciting able see all food coming out. I settled for soup of the day. Turkey pozole. Bbq tri-tip sandwich. Must cause friends favorite dish Urban fries. The soup was hearty, hot, and amazing. Tri tip sandwich moist, perfect, and the bun best part grill it before get it hot. Urban lives up to the hype. The blue cheese type dressing combine with spicy oil. Works!!! Like is it not drowning on top always have hot crispy frie eating. Overall great food, nice portions, and all reasonable priced. If had one in Vegas be regular for sure!!!

    Is the Elk Grove location dog friendly?

    Yes, for patio seating they are.

    Been trying to call this place to see if they are OPEN Easter Sunday 04/21/19. I try 5 times no luck. Please let me know?

    They are not opened on Easter

    Is there a different number? Ive been trying to call for an hour now--- no answer.

    They do not answer the phones ever, at least in my experience. They get really busy and there is no one appointed to answer calls...

If you've never ordered it that way, it's basically all the sandwich ingredients layered in a bowl -- fresh meats, toppings, and all the flavor without feeling heavy. It's a great option if you're eating lower carb or just want something lighter but still satisfying. Think all the good parts of a sandwich without the nap afterward. Everything tasted fresh, portions were generous, and the staff was friendly and efficient. The order came out quickly, which I always appreciate when I'm grabbing something between errands. The space itself was clean, organized, and had that upbeat, busy sandwich shop energy without feeling chaotic. Easy to pop in, order, and either sit for a few minutes or head out. It's one of those reliable spots where you know exactly what you're getting, and sometimes that consistency is exactly what you want.
