Great food and great service! The ambiance is nice, very bright and open seating. Would recommend this place

India was so awesome, she really was so accommodating when me and my date were having trouble deciding on the menu. She really is worth coming to see and I guess the food is a close second! read more

I am so glad I tried this place. I've heard friends say positive things before but it really surprised me how good the place was. You pick and main item and two side items. The had a good variety of selections for the side items. The Chimichurri Steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The beet salad was refreshing. And those Truffle fries were excellent! I was surprised about the generous portions given the price. It was very affordable for high quality food. Semi casual spot. You order at the counter, they give you a numbered placard and then they deliver the food to you. My only complaint is the parking. This is a very busy shopping center with a lot of stores and not enough parking. read more

Wow!! Such a cool place to check out. We came here for my mom's birthday dinner and this place did NOT disappoint. So many food options on the menu, the food comes out super fast and taste so fresh and flavorful, and it's plated so beautifully, like a fancy restaurant. The ambiance is super chill and low key, the music is spot on, it's just perfect. And the staff, they are all super friendly, they welcomed us immediately as we walked in. Brooklyn and India deserved to be recognized as they were very friendly and welcoming. There was another staff member staff who brought us out our drinks but we didn't catch her name but she was also super helpful, We used the kiosk to order which is nice too. Definitely stop by and check them out, you'll be so glad you did. read more

5/09 - stopped in for one of the hyped chicken items - the chicken breast club sandwich. UGH - for how awesome the osso bucco is, the chicken dishes are a dismal failure - I've already dogged the dark meat dinner at the Sacramento location - so let's talk about that club sandwich from Davis. The chicken was bits and chunks of chicken, so they didn't play well in a sandwich - they slid all around - and to top if off, all the skin bits and gnarly fatty bits were still attached - on breast meat FCOL! Just plain UGH - oh, and don't even get me started about "garden weeds" being passed off as lettuce - this mess couldn't even qualify as "spring mix" - I've tried 2 hyped chicken meals - that's enough - will pick different things from the menu from now on on a good note - the staff is always top notch at this store and it's spotlessly clean - so I'll return, but not for cold chicken anything read more

Food: 5 Mics Service: 5 Mics Ambiance: 5 Mics Food: American Fare is served here with lots of choices to hit exactly what you are looking for. Entrees, salads, sandwiches, burgers. I was tempted to try the burger but went the healthy route of a salad with steak. Wife had the beef with mashed potatoes. Service: Awesome! Having hospitality experience, this is what you are looking for. Friendly, patient and can guide you through the menu options. Ambiance: Clean and modern and lots of seating. We went to the Davis location-come thru and eat! You won't regret it! We'll be back for the next few Sundays. read more

This review is based on a catered order. The steak sandwich looked pale and rare, but it was surprisingly tender and tasty. The house salad was ordinary, but the vinaigrette and pickled onions elevated the greens. I would try this place if I'm around. read more

Urban Plates - Grilled Grass Fed Steak Sandwich Classic House Salad - New American Near Me - Davis, California

I came here with some friends for brunch on a sunday, and we stayed for a while just talking, which made for a nice experience. We sat in the patio outside. it was nice and quiet considering that's its next to one of the main roads in davis. The service style is the one where you order at the front first, then they give you a table flag and bring the food out to you. You also handle things like water, condiments, and utensils yourself. The roast chicken was pretty decent. Nothing crazy, but good. The caesar salad was good too, and overall the food felt fresh and healthy. The fries were fine, felt like they were battered or at the least seasoned One interesting thing is that they rotate specials through the menu every week encouraging you to try something new Overall, it was a solid experience. Nothing to write home about, but nothing to complain about either. The food tasted healthy, and I felt pretty good afterward. read more

The food was delicious, and the service was great. Everything tasted amazing. Really enjoyed my meal. I'll definitely be back.

Food: great selection, healthy, portions are just right (the salmon I ordered was moist and not dry at all) Service: food is probably made to order so it takes a while. It's worth it though. Just don't come here in a rush. The servers were nice. Ambiance: there are shared tables and an outdoor patio. I came on a really cold night and didn't want to sit outside. There wasn't enough seating for my party of 4 inside. We had to sit separately during our meal. That's the only disappointing part. Otherwise, I will be back. read more

We saw this restaurant reviewed on Instagram and we finally made it to eat! It was nice and clean. We walked in and ended up ordering at the kiosk. We are kind of old school so it was nice to have the opportunity to talk to a human even though we know kiosks are the future. Prices are kind of steep, but that's the trend now. The menu is very extensive! I ended up ordering the steak salad and my friend ordered the siren turf plate. I looked at the fries avg they looked so yummy, so I ordered a side of fries. We grabbed our table sign (mine was my HS graduation year) and sat down at a bar-height table with comfy chairs. The restaurant was pretty busy while we were there, but it only took about 10 minutes for our food to arrive. His plate arrived first (Surf 'n Turf) and it looked yummy. We should have put our meals on the same number since my food came out about 5 minutes after his did. He started eating since his was hot and I didn't want it to get cold. My fries came out next and I was disappointed. The images on the kiosk made them look like they would be very well seasoned. It did not look seasoned at all when they arrived. They were nice and hot, but my friend said they tasted "like a potato". Nothing to write home about. I didn't even end up eating too many and I don't often leave food behind! My salad came out and it looked amazing! I ordered the steak well done since it was the only other option. Surprisingly the meat was still very tender and not dry at all. There was a hint of mint in the salad and that was a very refreshing addition. I liked the mango salsa and added crunch of nuts, but I got most of it at the end of the salad. We stayed until 9:30 and at one point the lights dimmed so we took that as our sign it was time to leave. Overall, our meals were good, but I probably won't put this restaurant on a regular rotation. I paid $30 for a salad and fries and I left some fries on the plate. It reminds me of a higher-end Panera. The vibe was nice and I did really like the layout and design, though. read more

First of all, they have a membership that you can join to get 20% off of your purchase and that, along with a great menu keeps me coming back two or three times a week. I am not a tech person, at all, but when I go in I look for Nikki or Benji to help me. They are incredibly kind and help me in a way that I don't feel like I am a dummy, and they ALWAYS take as much time as I need. They make good recommendations on their menu and I have never been disappointed. I love the decor there, it makes me feel like a hipster, even though I am a handicapped senior citizen, just in a world of college students. And I always get a cookie! If you go there, look for Benji or Nikki, you will feel like royalty. read more

First time coming to this place and I must say I really like it! Met up with some friends here for lunch and the food was delicious! Everything was fresh and looked so colorful! We all enjoyed our food and loved the desserts! We tried the Banana cream pie, mango tart, chocolate cake and hummingbird cake! Highly recommend coming here if you like fresh salads, and good quality food! Good service ! Alexa was helping us out and she was friendly and sweet. She even let us try a cookie and it was a huge cookie! Too bad there's not a location closer to me or I would come more often! read more

Stopped by here on a whim during a road trip. Ordered online to go - the chicken Cobb salad fresh and filling - decent portion size. I would order it again. Some observations: for a chain restaurant, I like that they emphasize no additives or preservatives. There was a large water dispenser with cups available. Very busy, lots of people waiting to order and also seated. I noticed the all gender restroom was clean, spacious, and they even had this cool rubberized mat around the toilet bowl that catches any fluids, rather than it ending up on the floor. It was well stocked and I like that there was a Koala Kare changing station - very family friendly! There are about 3-4 solo restrooms, which is nice for a change (as opposed to multiple stalls). They partner with Plate Pass, a paid membership program which gives you discounts and and dining credit. Overall, happy with the food quality and ambiance. I would definitely return. read more

This is my new go to stop for low calorie healthy meals. You can easily get a plate that's only 600-1000 calories that still has big flavor. They know how to maximize flavor in their dishes without just adding excess amounts of fat/sugar. Surf and turf: A Shrimp has this delicious garlic butter. Grass fed beef steak is so tender that you eat it with a butter knife. And it's marinated quite nicely as the center of the meat is not bland at all. Sea bass: B This was a to go order and I will say the fish was good. Food definitely is better served hot dining in. For the sides I like the sesame broccoli, seafood chowder, and potatoes. read more

SO delicious and I wish I knew about Urban Plates sooner! Healthy, delicious, good portions + nice dining area. A group of us stopped by with kids in tow and were able to get a table, I ordered the steak with Brussels sprouts and cauliflower. One of my kids got the kid meal with mac and cheese and Brussel sprouts, and the other got the salmon with beets. The food arrived fairly quickly and it was all delicious! Each plate came with garlic bread which my kids gobbled up. Food can be a little pricey but is very reasonable for what you get. Parking can get busy on weekends, but we were able to find a spot by Trader Joe's and just walked over. read more

Nikki was awesome and the food was great! Family friendly and clean. Will coming back!

I originally was quite excited to try out Urban Plates when they opened in October but was a bit disappointed with my experience. Even though we ordered both our dishes at the same time, the steak had come out first and the bowl around 15-20 minutes later, after we had inquired about its progress with a staff member. By that time, we had already finished with the first dish as we didn't want it to get cold. Although we found the brussel sprouts to be quite yummy and the french fries well seasoned, the meat was a bit tough and the portion itself felt a bit small. When our second dish finally came, I felt that the bowl was missing something that would make the taste more well-rounded and cohesive. The miso dressing was a bit strong for me so I think I might have enjoyed another dish. Our second dish was missing the bread so we had asked one of staff if we could get it but after 10 minutes, they hadn't come back. So, we asked another staff if we could just have it to-go. We might have just had less than desirable service because they had just opened up which could be expected. read more

A friend and I had lunch at Urban Plates on a Thursday. I knew parking would be an issue so we arrived around 11:30 a.m. and took the first space we could find in front of PetSmart and walked to the restaurant. Looking over the main parking lot there were just a couple of regular spaces. The restaurant was uncrowded when we arrived. You are greeted with two big electronic kiosks at the entry to order without human intervention if you so wish. Utensils and order number signs are located there. We chose to interact with a human and Arlett was happy to take our order at the counter to the left of the entryway. Once my order was taken I was given a number sign to take to a table and directed to take utensils and napkins from the counter. The water dispenser is located against a window on the other side of the restaurant, where one can get more napkins and utensils. There is no shortage of opportunities to get a knife and fork and napkins. There are several tables for two and some for four. There is also a long table that people were sharing. Both of our Mediterranean Chicken Bowls were delivered to our table after a short wait. The food was delicious and the portion size was good. I was able to take home about half of my plate. My friend ate all of hers. There was a 3% surcharge on my bill. Looking at their menu online there was a footnote: "** to offset the cost of CA mandated benefits, a 3% surcharge is added." I do not know of any other local restaurants doing that, though I understand it is common in Los Angeles and San Francisco. They have an extensive menu and many other dishes sound very tempting. The parking issue concerns me. My friends agree on eating early but my husband prefers eating late. When we left the restaurant at about 12:30 the parking lot was completely full. read more

We ordered online for pick up. As soon as we walked in, nobody acknowledged us and there were a lot of staff present. We had to go to the counter and ask them for our online order. Not too impressed with customer service. Hence the 3 stars. The place just opened for lunch and they weren't busy. Everything was tasty. The portobello mushrooms were delicious but it didn't look and taste like grilled to me. The fries were good and my partner's steak sandwich was good. Place looks spacious and clean. Parking is shared with other stores. read more

This was a unique experience because I would come back for the food but I think the execution of it was very poor. The good: - beautiful interior, very clean and elevated - bathroom - service was extremely kind and attentive when we did have service - steak and salmon was perfectly cooked and super tender + juicy - clam chowder was outstanding, packed with veggies, perfectly salted, even had fish in it though a bit dry The bad: A little cramped at the entrance, and the wait time was a little long. Don't come on Saturday at 7. Salmon and steak plates took 20+ mins to come and the surf n turf 5 minutes longer. I'm mostly upset about the food execution, holy salt. The garlic shrimp was mind blowingly salty, quinoa was too salty, ponzu sauce for salmon was too salty, bread was too oily (self serve butter+more crisp would be better), the salmon and steak portions were a bit underwhelming, and I paid $1 for the slightest drizzle of chimmichurri and it was sooo disappointing. Idk why ponzu sauce was given in a cup and chimmichurri was flicked on, cost wise it's obvious but flavor wise it's not. Awesome place, just needs some refining. read more

Second time here in one week! Perfect for groups or intimate dates. - Chimichurri Steak (5/5) amazingly tender - Barramundi Seabass (4/5) very flavorful - Truffle Parmesan Fries (5/5) truffle mayo - Chicken Tenders are massive, crispy. - Hummingbird Cake (4/5) like a carrot cake but with pineapple. the cake layers are almost like muffins - Mango Tart (5/5) fresh mango atop is amazing - Coconut, Pineapple, Lime drink (5/5) India and Areeba were the best, they both provided incredible service and recommendations. Can't go wrong with any of the sides. The condiments bar with olive oil, vinegar, ketchup, etc by the water station is exposed to direct sunlight the whole day, that should probably be moved. read more

Welcome to Davis! Stopped in today for lunch. I had a turkey club sandwich and it was excellent. The bread was extremely fresh and the sandwich was perfect. As written, no customizations for me! I took it to go, and given it was a busy time of day, they got it out relatively quickly. I like the fact that you can order with a kiosk, at the counter, or even from the table. I think that's really helpful. The line for the counter was fairly long and not moving quickly. It has a nice vibe. Spotlessly clean and the servers were really sweet. I will definitely be back to check out something else. Highly recommend! read more

We had a great experience at Urban Plates! We came for a late dinner on Thursday and were really surprised by the ambiance of the restaurant. Though the ordering process is a 'pay at the counter' style, the restaurant feels more like a proper dine-in experience. The decor and furniture was very nice and had a classy feel to it. It was seriously like eating a nice hotel restaurant. The food was definitely a standout. The portions weren't huge, but they were appropriately sized and cooked nicely. I had the steak and the cook on it was perfection. The sauce on the top really set off the flavor and I was in heaven eating it! I also had a coconut line refresher that was excellent. There are many choices and options on the menu, so if you have dietary restrictions it's pretty easy to customize your meal so that it works for you. Now this is a proper restaurant that is perfect for Davis! read more

Ordering is quick and easy with the devices by the entrance. They had a note explaining there would be a 30min wait due to the restaurant being short-staffed for the day when I went in.
