    Rainbow Carrots & Golden Beets
    Bindu A.

    Ordered a side Rainbow carrots and yellow beets. So delicious! especially the beets!

    Mixed beet salad
    Dianna W.

    Urban Plate is a fast - casual restaurant chain that serves fresh , scratch -made meals using high quality and responsibly source ingredients. The chefs cook almost everything from scratch daily , including dressings , sides , soups and desserts. The menu features local produce , grass-fed beef , free-range chicken , and sustainable seafood ( fish and shrimp ) . I love their mixed beets salad . Beets are colorful and sweet . My friends got grilled steak , salmon and chicken salad . They offer a monthly subscription $5 called Plate pass . That will give you 20 % off on every order . The first restaurant was opened 2011 in San Diego , Ca . The co / founders are Saad Nadhir and John Zagara , along with private investment firm Morgan Stanley Expansion Capital . I enjoy the healthy choices , clean and modern vibe that feel relaxing and homely . Great place to dine and meet up with friends.

    Roasted Barramundi Seabass & Grilled Grass Fed Steak
    Alisa B.

    Wait a minute... I would actually highly recommend for some decent American food in the area! A little expensive, but a great option to track calorie & nutrition intake. Everything is really customizable and accomodating! I liked the Grilled Grass Fed Steak! A little bit of a chew to it, but made pretty well and NOT BLAND! We paired this with the potato and quinoa. A very beige but yummy meal. The bread was well liked too! The Roasted Barramundi Seabass was the star of the show for me. Tender and perfectly cooked. Not too fishy and seasoned nicely. Paired this with broccolini and beet salad... felt real healthy and skinnyyyy... it was still 650 calories, but whatever. I came here before seeing a movie at AMC and I was pretty satisfied! My only gripe is that the customer service wasn't amazing... The staff were not happy when I asked where the utensils were located... and they definitely were stressed about the line being out the door on a Sunday afternoon.

    My first time at this location since it has been open. Everything is new. Many tables at this restaurant. There is a variety of options at this menu. I like the vibe of this restaurant too. I came in on a Wednesday night with three other friends. We enjoyed all of our meals. This is a great place to hangout if you have friends that you want to chat with and no one will rush you away. There is plenty of healthy options here and the dessert is so good too! I can't wait to come back and try other dishes here.

    Urban Plates has so many great options, and the portion sizes are perfect. Sometimes the meat is cooked inconsistently, but the salad has consistently been fresh and delicious. Love bringing friends here!!

    Grass fed beef
    Johana M.

    I love coming here! Their food is always amazing and so is their service. I really like how quick they serve your food and how tasty everything always is. I also enjoy having dates here because their environment is so chill but a bit on the fancy side too

    Urban Plates is a solid everyday spot that feels a step above casual without trying too hard. We had two plates with strip steak, paired with sides like mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, and broccoli. Everything was well prepared and satisfying, the kind of meal that just works without overthinking it. The steak sandwich was also good, though the bread could be better. It did the job, but felt like the one part that could be upgraded. The space itself is very nice and comfortable, making it easy to sit and relax. It is also in a super convenient location in the newer downtown Sunnyvale area, with plenty of garage parking just a short walk away. It is a reliable choice when you want a good, easy meal in a comfortable setting.

    mashed potatoes
    Jennifer

    This Urban Plates is located in Sunnyvale Cityline. Everything is very flavorful here. They use a lot of different natural ingredients. My friends really like the mashed potatoes here! Parking: There is a parking garage right by it and street parking even closer

    10/10 food. I've had Urban Plates before, but this was my first time visiting the Sunnyvale location. Very friendly services, lots of healthy options (with calorie and macro counts available for those who track), and quick service (took less than 10 minutes for my food to arrive). I got a plate with chicken and 2 sides: roasted potatoes and asparagus. Chicken breast was moist! Not dry at all. And the perfect amount of seasoning without anything tasting too oily. Would come back again. I prefer this over Tender Greens.

    Urban Plates was such an interesting spot we recently stopped by because it really combines the fast food and dine in restaurant experience in such a unique way. Parking is pretty easy to find with a garage nearby and the setting of the inside is pretty nice too. Ordering feels like a fast food place where you go through a digital menu on a touch screen but the quality of food is so much higher than that. We ordered a grilled steak sandwich with fries and proceeded to sit down at our table. Like a regular restaurant they bring the food out to you and you can even see the chefs cooking at their station which is interesting to watch while you wait. The grilled steak sandwich was pretty good, the steak cooked perfectly and had nice juice to it with warm bread around it. The fries were also pretty good. The most impressive thing was that from order to get food was less than 10 minutes even with two other people dining with us. Urban Plates really does a great job of fast food convenience but with genuine, good food. It's the ultimate spot to grab a quick bite at but not feel bad about the 1000 calories you ate after.

    Stopped by Urban Plates on a cold day and needed something warm and healthy. The hot beef soup hit the spot -- rich, flavorful, and very satisfying. I skipped the bread, and it was still a great, hearty meal on its own. Everything was fresh, tasty, and exactly what I needed. I'd definitely come back.

    Hummingbird cake
    Heather Bee R.

    Happy indulgence that feels good! Hummingbird cake, first!! I am a huge hummingbird cake fan, so I'm always on the hunt for the perfect one offering extreme moistness, filled with nuts, carrots, pineapple, super chunky, yet still keeping the moist cake texture, paired with the most perfect cream cheese frosting you've ever had! I love that all their sides are healthy and homemade, paired with amazing proteins and you have yourself a guilt free meal! We love the Sunnyvale location because it's in walking distance from our house and is a super quick DoorDash away when we're feeling super lazy, but what to eat well!

When I first walked in, the man working at the counter didn't greet me or acknowledge me. He appeared to be in a bad mood, and throughout the ordering process, his attitude felt unfriendly and unwelcoming. When he asked if I wanted anything else, I initially said no, but then changed my mind and decided to get a drink. His response made me feel like I was inconveniencing him simply by adding something to my order. The most uncomfortable part was when I went to pay. The payment screen was asking about a tip, and I was trying to navigate the options and cancel out of the screen so I could complete my payment. I wasn't sure what I was supposed to press, and instead of helping me, he continued doing something else and didn't offer any assistance. After I tried again and the payment didn't work, he huffed and said, "You keep canceling it," in a very rude and irritated tone. I even apologized and told him that I didn't know what I was doing, but there was still no attempt to help or show me what to press, and no apology for the way he spoke to me. I ultimately walked out feeling really uncomfortable and honestly baffled by the interaction. I paid over $20 for my meal, and while the food was good, I expected a much more welcoming and respectful customer service experience. Everyone can have a bad day, but customers shouldn't feel like they're a bother for needing a little assistance with the payment system.

I didn't see any reviews or photos on the wrap, let's change that. I got 2 wraps: 1 Blazing Bird and 1 Date Delight (for someone else). He did not like his for some reason, but I cant' say much because I didn't try it. I got the blazing bird and it is honestly one of the best wraps I've had. It is good, crunchy and their sauce that comes with it is yummy too. I first saw it and thought, WOW, this is big, but I ate it all. The only thing I would say is it could use a little more chicken. This is probably why I was able to finish it, it did lack some chicken. I also got the bone broth and that is also very delicious. Overall the wrap is a 4. It would be 5 if it had more chicken. I will still get the wrap and bone broth again.

Our bowls were finished up by someone that added the additional touches. Each of us loved the flavor combinations on our bowls.

We'd love it if you made it to "off strip" areas of Las Vegas.
