This was my first time visiting Urban Plates. The decor is sleek and modern with some farmhouse charm. Staff was young and friendly, and the self-order system was easy to navigate. I really liked the outdoor patio, with plenty of seating and even a dog-friendly area. The food, though, was a bit underwhelming. Portion sizes were small for the price. Just two slices of tofu and a mini corn on the cob, both of which were surprisingly spicy. Not ideal. Vegetarian and vegan options were limited (just two), and the dessert menu was pretty sparse too. The ambiance and seating are the biggest pluses here, but overall, I probably wouldn't return if I was really hungry. read more

Food here is so freaking good, I always get the chimichurri steak plate with mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus. Steak is always cooked perfectly (med rare) and the side dishes always taste so fresh. I also decided to get the tomato bisque soup and that also hit really well, the texture is perfect, not too thin and not overly thick. Dipping the bread that comes with the steak plate in their soups is a really good combo. Service is also pretty good, cashier and server with glasses (unfortunately didn't get his name) were friendly and a worker named Francisco came over to check up on us, very friendly guy as well. The dining room is really spacious and clean although during my visit it was a bit chilly in there that I had to put on my sweater to keep myself from getting too cold. I didn't say anything about it only because I'm assuming they need to keep it at a certain temperature. In conclusion, I really like this place and the food they serve, I will continue to come back. :) read more

Looking for a spot in Brea California that offers Vegan options as well as other foods, this might be the place. The chimichurri was cooked perfectly and had great flavor. The Tofu topped with a mild and flavorful chili sauce was delicious. The portions are a bit small but priced accordingly. They also offer some wines and other specialty drinks. There's ample indoor seating for large groups and a patio area with heated lamps. read more

They have great service and are extremely helpful with gluten allergies. Vibes are immaculate!

Overall, the food was good, the surface was great, and the obvious was wonderful and cozy! There was plenty of seating and parking. The folks working there were really nice! This was a solid place for my cousin, my mom and I to have a quick sit down meal!-- unfortunately the crispy chicken sandwich was apart, but the Cobb salad and the salmon plate were good! Would definitely come here again for a quick bite!! read more

For a long period of time I had foolishly dismissed and avoided this restaurant for one reason or another. Quite frankly, I don't even know what the reason(s) were, but I simply never gave it a try. My lady recommended I let the bad feelings go and give it a try, so we took the machine for a cruise and tried it out.. I was blown away at the size of the facility. Plenty of indoor and covered patio seating. Very clean and modern location. The cheeseburger reminded me of a solid backyard BBQ style burger. The grilled chicken plate with macaroni and cheese was definitely better tasting than it looked. The macaroni and cheese, while plain, was an excellent side choice. The grass fed steak was cooked to medium rare perfection, full of flavor and very tender. The hummus was an unfortunate upset. Flavor was there, but to me, it was not the right flavor one would be seeking. I wish they had broccoli for a side choice. Rumor has it that they once did, but the cashier told me its not the broccoli season apparently.. I will say the gentlemen working the counter were very friendly. Heavy respects to the guy dealing with the grandmas and grandpas. I was hurting for him as they were playing their games, but he trucked through it like a champ. read more

Urban Plates - These cookies were sooooo good! - New American Near Me - Brea, California

I like the environment and the restaurant healthy choice. Recently we noticed that there are some negative changes: we usually order salad once or twice a week. There were times the items missed. The incomplete salad-missing lettuce, missing crunchy. Today we dined in. Similar things happened. The server said it will take 35 minutes to cook. I explained it would be fine to wait. Half hour later, we asked them and they just put it in the oven. The cook even laughed about it. I felt it's sad when they ignored customers need. No wonder they changed the menu. read more

I gave this place a few chances, but the quality of their food is terrible. I've tried their salad, sandwich, and plates. The meat always looks and tastes undercooked, and the portion gets smaller each time. The only good thing here is their chocolate vanilla cake, even though it costs $8.25 for a slice. There's a 3% surcharge added to every order, which is ridiculous when their prices are already high and the food isn't good. I saw a few other reviews mention the surcharge and people are upset about this. They should get rid of it or they will lose more customers. read more

I ordered my food through Uber Eats. I got the steak plate with mashed potatoes w/gravy and garlic parmesan mushrooms. The steak plate came with a rustic bread. The meal was about $20. The mashed potatoes with gravy cost $1 extra. The meal was good overall. The steak was tender and juicy, but only came with 4 pieces of meat. The bread wasn't toasted, misleading picture on the website. The mashed potatoes were okay, a little creamy but needed more flavor. The gravy was disgusting, watery and tasteless! I shouldn't have poured the gravy on the mashed potatoes, ruined the creamy taste. The mushrooms were good, a little too salty but worked well with the steak. I would try the restaurant in person, perhaps it would be better portioned and tasting. read more

I love Urban Plates! One of my "go to" spots for delicious, fresh food! The Ahi Niçoise salad is one of my favorites! Had an extra pleasant experience today! Was tended to my Adriana and Kimberly at the front. They allowed my family and I to try the fruit juices before buying and they were extra friendly! Excellent customer service! Thank you, Ladies! read more

Ambiance was comfortable and warm out on the patio on an early chilly late afternoon "Linner" meal. Although our brief interaction with cashier and server were pleasant the entire experience felt focused on a CONSUMER rather than a CUSTOMER. The food was good.However it lacked any Luster. Seemed liked our meal was warmed up and poured onto a plate. Salad had 2 small potatoes 1 tomato, 3 green beans the rest lettuce. Ahi was again good but seemed warmed up and put on the lettuce. Lacked effort... the pictures at the cash register are deceiving. At least for the Chimney Churi steak. Broccoli fine, mashed potatoes fine.... Over all food Lacked any Luster read more

This Urban Plates location is huge! It's also clean and the staff are attentive. The food isn't the most flavorful, but I wouldn't say it's bland or anything, and I think the primary purpose when eating here is to be healthy. I get the kid's steak to be a little more easy on the wallet and the calories. The balsamic Brussels sprouts are very nice. Steak is a little tough. read more

Urban Plates - Favorite item when I visit - New American Near Me - Brea, California

Great experience, had the Thai chicken salad and seafood chowder. Francisco was very helpful and attentive to our needs!

This Urban Plates location was absolutely delicious. I ordered the blackened sustainable salmon with broccoli, rainbow carrots, and golden beets, and everything was cooked perfectly--fresh, flavorful, and genuinely healthy. My friend had the chimichurri grass-fed steak, which was equally impressive and packed with flavor. What really stood out, though, was the service. Francisco greeted us as soon as we walked in and was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout our visit. He made sure we received our food, checked in to see how everything was, and genuinely cared about our experience. That level of hospitality really made the visit feel special. Thank you, Francisco. The ambiance at this location is beautiful--clean, welcoming, and relaxed. The staff overall are super friendly (another shoutout to Francisco), the location is great, and the food being both delicious and healthy makes this place a standout. I'll definitely be back. read more
