    Chicken Caesar Wrap
    Julia B.

    I have no clue how this place is rated a 4.6 on Yelp. I wasted $77 on a meal we barely enjoyed. This was my friend's birthday lunch, too. We ordered Truffle Fries and Mac n cheese to share. These are not appetizers, they are sides. Extra sides that you have to purchase, even though each entree already comes with a side. The fried tasted like truffle and the parmesan tasted great with it. But the mac n cheese barely had flavor because the sauce was straight up liquid. The cheese couldn't stick to the noodles, you would need to eat it with a spoon if you wanted any cheese flavor. Then we had our entrees. The chimichurri steak was chewy and low quality, paired with a bland slice of bread, potatoes and side salad. In theory it sounds good, but on the plate, it just was not appetizing. The chicken in my caesar wrap was delicious, but it tasted like chipotle chicken. Why would anyone put chipotle chicken in a caesar wrap? It completely took away from the caesar flavor. There was barely any lettuce, the croutons were mushy and wet because of the chipotle chicken, and why would anyone put a side salad next to a salad wrap?? I only chose salad because I didn't want even more fries instead. The workers are attentive, welcoming and the restaurant is clean and modern. I just really did not enjoy the food at all.

    Stopped by for lunch after their chimichurri steak caught my eye ($22). You order at the front and then they bring your food to you. They have both indoor and outdoor seating with umbrellas. Unfortunately, their food is just "ok." The chimichurri steak was pretty small (and overcooked, but I didn't mind it too much) and I honestly wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Same for the truffle fries and Mac & cheese--nothing special, probably wouldn't order again. There wasn't much flavor for any of them.

    Blackened Chicken Healer Bowl
    Kelvin C.

    Amazing healthy fresh spot on Burl Ave. Loved the Healer salad, it was packed full Of fresh veggies, delicious chicken, and lots of great toppings. The potatoes were tender and flavorful. The miso salmon bowl was delicious and nicely prepared. There are so many different and delicious items, we'll be back to try them all. The service was outstanding and the staff is super helpful.

    Full team was in town and had breakfasts, lunches, and happy hours booked back to back for a few days. We had one night without anything booked for a lowkey evening. Ended up at Urban Kitchen after Top Golf happy hour golf and bites for something healthier . You order at the counter. It's not a huge place but they were able to accommodate our group of 9. Had the salmon miso bowl and we also ordered Brussels sprouts to share. It was fresh and hit the spot.

    Wonderful experience overall! This grab-and-go restaurant offers fresh protein options and generous portion sizes. The salmon tasted freshly made to order, while the beef, although slightly cold, still tasted like high-quality meat. The vegetables accompanying the dishes were exceptionally fresh! The crisp crunch of the lettuce was especially surprising in the best way. I'M SAYING - how can lettuce taste this good? This meal felt clean, nourishing, and genuinely reinvigorating to eat. The variation of colors of the meal, made me have a big appetite. I loved every bite of it!

    Jonathan and Juliana thank you for the hosting of a fabulous meal between my surgeries. With the harmony of the sidewalk and.the scent of your food makes magic all around.

    I really wanted to give this a five star rating, I tried really hard, but I'm pushing it to give them a solid four stars tonight. Staff was great, friendly and efficient. The guy at the register didn't know what type of steak is in the steak dish (it's skirt steak). To me, knowing your menu is a basic 101 question at work. I debated between the steak dish and the barbecue blackened chicken and I ended up choosing the chicken. I envisioned a piece of chicken ... a whole piece of chicken. It advertises as gluten free so I didn't ask for it to be made gluten-free. Unfortunately, they put a piece of bread on top of my food without asking me. They did deliver it to my table, at which point I let them know that I had ordered the sweet potato fries and I was allergic to wheat. They did not remake the dish, they simply took the piece of bread off, and gave me some fresh sweet potato fries. Unfortunately, that really messed up the temperature of the food. By the time they brought it back, my chicken was cold, lukewarm at best, yet my sweet potato fries were piping hot and very good! It was unfortunately a mediocre experience. I'm giving extra credit for the guy who came up to answer the " what kind of steak is on the steak dish" question. He was helpful and friendly. Restaurant is 3.5 / 5 clean. The bathroom could really use attention. It needs deep cleaning, nothing that's recent. I don't think I'll be back yet it's a good option for a less expensive meal in the Burlingame area. This is a great, walkable town with lots of options to choose from!

    Went for a late lunch with some friends as some breakfast places were already closed. It's a smaller restaurant where you order at the counter and the servers will serve your entrees. I wanted the Beet and Citrus salad with a side of Grilled Salmon. It's primarily an Arugula salad that comes with 3 thin slices of beets vs. chunks and 3 thin slices of orange segments on the side. The Salmon on the side was nice and tender. My other friend ordered the same salad. Our other friend ordered the Thai Street Prawns which was a big portion in a bowl. Each order comes with a grilled slice of bread with a Pesto Sauce on top which was really delicious and paired nicely with all salads/bowls. Our server was friendly. You can get your utensils by the counter. It's a nice, casual place with healthy options. Brunch is also served on the weekends. Good luck on parking as it was a challenge to find but metered parking is free on Sundays.

    Sustainable Grilled Salmon, sub Greek salad
    Lauren P.

    While walking down Burlingame Ave, I was craving a healthy-ish meal for dinner. After a quick Yelp search, I found Urban Kitchen. I went with their Sustainable Grilled Salmon entree, and subbed the Urban Salad for their Greek Salad. My gosh, the meal was so delicious! The lemon oregano dressing paired perfectly on top of the crispy-edged piece of salmon. I was genuinely sad when I finished the salmon - it was that good. The super grains looked like a brown rice and quinoa mix, which was savory and chewy. The greek salad came with plenty of kalamata olives, crispy garbanzo beans, and creamy feta. I'll definitely be back for a healthy & flavorful meal.

    Pretty expensive and food is mediocre. I ordered the shakshuka. I usually love shakshuka and unfortunately it just tasted like tomatoes paste without much savory goodness

    Nutella cheesecake
    Jane N.

    I had the Healer Bowl and added steak, and it was absolutely delicious! The ingredients were incredibly fresh, the steak was tender and flavorful, and everything came together perfectly. I also ordered the chimichurri steak sandwich, which was just as amazing. To top it all off, I treated myself to the Nutella cheesecake, and it was the perfect dessert. Everything I ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. If you're looking for healthy food without sacrificing taste, Urban Kitchen is definitely worth a visit. I'll definitely be back!

    I was not the biggest fan but I also came for their brand-new brunch menu which may not have all the kinks ironed out yet so I may come back some other time and try their normal menu for lunch or dinner. We ordered the chicken & waffle, steak & eggs, as well as a salmon eggs benedict. I found all of these to be just OK, except for the chicken in the chicken & waffle which was actively unenjoyable due to being way over-breaded and also being mostly bread and not chicken. The breading also had some weird mochi-like/chewy texture which was not pleasant, so I'd say this was the weakest item we ordered. The hot honey syrup it came with went great with the waffle though. I also enjoyed the sweet potato fries, which though very unevenly seasoned appeared to be air-fried due to the lack of oil and were super crispy and tasty when I did get a piece that was salted properly.

And the food was phenomenal. We remembered how much we loved the carpaccio from our last visit, so we ordered it again, and it absolutely lived up to our expectations. Five out of five. Everyone at the table loved it. For drinks, we had the Blood Orange Drop and the Passion Storm. Both were really good, and I especially loved the Passion Storm. The crab cake was probably the only miss for us. It wasn't terrible, but it just wasn't memorable enough for me to order again. Everything else was a hit: lamb shank, seafood linguini, seafood risotto, and cioppino. The portions were generous, and everyone enjoyed their meal so much that pretty much every plate was nearly cleaned. Even after all that food, the kiddos still had room for a sticky toffee pudding, which they also finished. For five people, the bill was a little over $300 before tip, coming in just under $400 with tip. For Broadway and the quality of the food and service, I thought that was pretty reasonable. We had such a nice evening this time around. Great food, great hospitality, and a really fun atmosphere. I'll definitely be back.

The vibe felt so relaxing and honestly, rather romantic despite dining alone. As for the food, the quality and presentation well supported its reasonable menu prices. The arugula salad was fresh and the golden berries gave it a bite. The parmigiana cheese gave it extra flavor. My Pollo Alla Vodka Lasagna proved a real birthday treat as its comforting taste derived from its mildly-sweet vodka sauce, shredded chicken (which aided digestion) and crispy lasagne sheets. I will also add that the portion sizes are most decent for a single eater. The salad and lasagne can even be shared between two. The complimentary Italian bread also had a lovely moist texture to it. Although my cappuccino was nicely presented and beautifully frothed, its temperature cooled rather quickly. I appreciate this is the normal standard for cappuccinos and lattes for to avoid scalding the milk but the barista could perhaps pre-heat the cup prior to pouring the espresso beverage to retain its heat. Overall, the inclusion of the background Italian music (including Disney's instrumental "Bella Note") and the cinematic projection screen on the wall, also made for a meditative eating experience.

So, coming here, first off, ALL the people who work here are wonderful. Very kind, professional, helpful and they act like they want to be here. I was helped quite a bit by Yesenia, and she was amazing, took great care of me! So kudos to management for what seems to be that, in turn, they take good care of their staff. It was a fairly long line to order and, at first, I sorta wished they had table service instead -- but it ended up moving fairly quickly and was very easy to order. They give you a number and you choose your own table, either inside or outside. On a Saturday morning, although it was busy, there were plenty of tables. My coffee came right away and it is good coffee. And I was told its Crepevine's own branded coffee, organic blend. My Thai crepe came not too long after. It usually comes with both peanut sauce and pesto. But I don't like pesto (and what does that have to do with Thai anyway?) so I asked for it to be prepared with just the peanut sauce. Unfortunately, that got lost and what I was served came with no sauces at all in the crepe. They were happy to take it back and have it re-done and it came out and a short time later with the peanut sauce inside ... and was nice and hot -- and delicious! The side salad that comes with the crepe usually has balsamic vinaigrette but I noticed that one of the menu items is a Thai Salad so, in keeping with the theme, I asked if they could put the dressing for that salad on my side salad and they said no problem, and it was very good -- a lemongrass dressing. The home potatoes were decent although I like mine well done with crispy edges, which these weren't, so I'd probably ask for that next time. And, btw, the value for the money is really good -- they give you A LOT of food! I actually couldn't finish everything on the plate. That all said, I don't think I'll come here on a regular basis, don't live nearby, but I'll definitely come back again, maybe when I have a guest in town -- it was a good meal at a good price and with excellent service and atmosphere, and the few minor problems I had were solved very quickly and efficiently, so 5 stars well deserved.

    Located right outside the train station, Rise Woodfire Pizza was such a chill spot to enjoy some…read moreamazing pizza and wine on a beautiful sunny day. What we ordered: Prosciutto Di Parma Arugula Pizza (+ burrata) = 100000/10 FOOD: 9/10 Served hot, fresh, and made to order, this pizza truly hit the spot. The crust had those delicious wood-fired charred bits and was the perfect thickness, not too thin, not too thick. The burrata (worth the extra charge!) was rich and creamy, while the arugula added the perfect fresh, crunchy bite. Every ingredient worked so well together. I'm literally salivating as I type this! Paired with some good wine? Chef's kiss! SERVICE: 9/10 Every staff member we interacted with struck the perfect balance of being friendly and laid-back. We sat at the bar, where the bartender also served as our waiter. He was personable, kept up a great conversation, and was attentive without ever making us feel rushed, all while mixing drinks and taking care of other guests. AMBIANCE: 9/10 Spacious, clean, and incredibly inviting. I loved the relaxed atmosphere and all the train station-inspired decor throughout the restaurant. The large windows let in so much natural light that it's an even better place to sit back and enjoy a meal. I'd happily come back the next time I'm in the area.

    Nice vibes with a lot of seating inside. Try to get a seat near the front if possible. The…read morerestaurant is right next to the caltrain tracks. The train was coming every 20 minutes or so, and it was very loud. Our party ordered the following: Pizzas - Margherita Pizza (4/5) - Prosciutto Pizza (5/5) - Beef Back Rib and Arugula Pizza (5/5) Sides - Mashed Potatoes (3/5) - Mac and Cheese (5/5) - Cornbread (3.5/5) - Arugula Salad (3/5) - Lemony Garlic Linguine with Prawns (5/5) The pizzas were served hot and fresh. Nice char on the crust, and not super doughy. For our Margherita Pizza specifically, it was a bit soggy/ floppy making it really hard to grab and eat. Other than that, the flavor was there. Might have been a one time thing, but would recommend getting this well done just in case. Of the 3 we ordered, the Beef Back Rib Pizza was my favorite! Great combination of flavors that complemented each other. Mashed Potatoes: A little too dry for my liking. Would recommend adding some black pepper to it. Mac and Cheese: Definitely hit the spot! It was nice and creamy, would definitely order it again! Jalapeno Cornbread: An interesting combination that just wasn't for me. If I come back, I may try it again to see if it grows on me. It was also on the drier side. Arugula Salad: There was A LOT of Parmesan cheese in the salad. I like parmesan, but this was pretty overwhelming. Lemony Garlic Linguine with Prawns: One of the best sides that we got. Noodles had a good chew to them, with a nice zest from the lemons. Very flavorful!

    The food here is very good. The tzatziki was excellent, and the pita that came with it was decent…read more We also had a Greek salad, ajvar (red pepper spread, which I didn't particularly like), dolmas, which were very good, and the beef souvlaki, which was exceptional. Service was perfectly fine. My main criticism is the lunch menu, or really the lack of one. It feels like they serve essentially the same menu all day, without many of the options you'd expect at lunch: adding grilled meat to a salad, for example, or getting a gyro or souvlaki sandwich. I found that surprisingly limiting, particularly given how good the food is, and it may help explain why the restaurant wasn't busier at lunch. Because of the way the menu is structured, we ended up mostly sharing starters and then splitting one main course, which worked fine but seems like an odd way to have to build a lunch. One nice feature is the outdoor seating. The tables are shaded, and the patio faces an alley rather than the street, which makes it noticeably quieter and more relaxing. Overall, very good food, highlighted by the excellent beef souvlaki and tzatziki. I'd happily return, but I wish they offered a more conventional lunch menu.

    Not a restaurant for vegans. There's a running theme throughout my reviews: if I have to hunt and…read morepeck for dishes I can eat, I won't give more than three stars. Mykonos has only one dish marked as vegan, and it's not even a real dish. It's a cold bell pepper spread with tiny walnut pieces (acuka). The only other options are salad and cauliflower, minus the sauce/cheese/etc. I ordered the cauliflower, and well...it's literally just roasted cauliflower. My non-vegan friends liked their food, so this restaurant is probably good if you eat everything. I'd recommend sitting outside if possible. It's a little chilly, even with the heat lamps, but much better than the inside, which is super loud and crowded. We had two servers (probably entered at the end of the first server's shift). They were both attentive and welcoming. The service merits an extra star, but this was really a two-star dining experience for me. Not a fan of restaurants where my only options are plain veggie dishes and salads. The next time my friends suggest this place, I'm gonna have to say no.

Our server, Gabriel, was amazing very attentive, friendly, and polite. He recommended the crab dip, and it was so creamy and delicious!! Great server! My wife, my daughter, and I absolutely loved it there. We definitely recommend this place!

    Exceptional Food, Atmosphere, and Truly Outstanding Service from Gabriel…read more I'm in the San Francisco area on a work trip and have eaten at Kincaid's before, but this experience was exceptional enough that it deserved a review. I ordered the Fiery Ahi Tuna along with the clam chowder, and the food was absolutely outstanding. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I ordered the Fiery Ahi Tuna two nights in a row. The quality of the food, the atmosphere, and the overall experience were fantastic. But what truly made this visit stand out was the service from Gabriel. Gabriel was, hands down, one of the best servers I've ever had. He was professional, attentive, personable, knowledgeable, and genuinely made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. Great service can completely change a dining experience, and Gabriel is a perfect example of that. There are countless great restaurants and dining options throughout San Francisco and the Bay Area, but Gabriel's exceptional service was honestly a major reason we chose to come back to Kincaid's a second night in a row. That says a lot. Our second experience was every bit as good as the first. Gabriel remembered us, once again provided phenomenal service, and made us feel like valued guests rather than simply another table. That level of hospitality is rare, and it deserves to be recognized. The food was outstanding, the ambiance was amazing, and Gabriel's service was absolutely exceptional. I cannot say enough great things about him. If you visit Kincaid's, I highly recommend requesting Gabriel, you will be in excellent hands. I travel quite a bit for work and eat at many restaurants, and experiences like this are the ones you remember. Gabriel is an incredible representative of Kincaid's and a huge asset to the restaurant. I will absolutely be returning the next time I'm in the area. And Gabriel, as promised, I'll also be filling out that member application! Five stars all around, and a special thank-you to Gabriel for making two nights at Kincaid's truly memorable.

    I was craving a good burger and a milkshake and this place hit the spot!…read more Lots of spacious outdoor seating; it was a lovely warm evening so perfect for sitting outside. We were in and out of there in 30-40 minutes. Service was speedy and the food just as fast. The first thing that came out was the strawberry shake and oh my goodness it was one of the best shakes I've had in a long while. Refreshing and the right thickness. I downed half the glass in one slurp! I got the runaway freight because I love having mushrooms on my burgers. Added some thick bacon and asked for the tomatoes and lettuce to be included. Ended up being a juicy meal! My boyfriend got the outlaw which had the jalapeños. They cook the patties to your liking and burgers come with a side of fries or salad. The fries portion was generous. Some of them were crispy and some could've used more time in the fryer. 2 people, roughly $60. But all cravings met!

    Honestly this has to be one of thee WORST dining experiences I've had in a long time. The server…read morewas very standoffish, inattentive and extremely nonchalant. He sat us down pretty quickly which is good but, the restaurant wasn't busy either so of course but, we didn't even get a proper greeting and it was so bad that he didn't even give us his name to let us know who was serving us (standard). The food took a min to come but, no biggie. My biggest issue was the server overall, he kept missing in action and it was clear he didn't want to be there b/c the other diners weren't receiving the best service either and what's so disheartening is the fact that I am in the hospitality industry so I know ppl can have their days so I still always tip something and I still did but not as much as I usually do b/c he was just so bad. I didn't even get the impression that he was having a bad day, I got more of the impression that he just simply didn't wanna be there and our whole dining experience could've been an "email" pretty much. The food was okay but the service was just so so bad that I wanted the food to be excellent to make up for the customer service side of things especially w/ the slightly expensive menu w/ subpar food. I took a sip of a drink that I ordered and didn't like it and I let him know and he literally just stood there for 30sec w/ a blank stare and said "so what do you want me to do?" Like huh.. anyways after he came back to earth he tells me that I can't get a refund and I just said ok, I even apologized for not liking it b/c he made me feel bad for basically not liking it, like I somehow inconvenienced him so I'll just say the best part of the experience was "leaving".
