    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

    Beef and Mushroom Braise
    Da Kat A.

    The place is spacious and with a great outdoor dining area, however, some tables are not cleaned well. Food is ok and not bad, nothing special. It's pretty pricey for a self-service restaurant. If you join their membership, then it's more reasonable if you get their food often. For the Chicken Club sandwich, the bread is too thick. The Beef and Mushroom Braise is flavorful but too salty. Was going to order a Mixed Beet or the Superfood salad too, but they charge almost $10 for adding chicken. That's expensive just for adding a side of chicken breast. Note that they add a 3% service fee.

    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

    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.

    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.

    We visited for a weekend lunch after a past positive dinner experience. The food was solid, but the drink service left us disappointed: * The Kombucha is not house-made or on tap the way menu photo suggests. A staff member dropped off a $7 bottle of Synergy kombucha at our table, one we could've purchased at half the price at Target just up the block. Would not have ordered it at all if it'd been accurately represented on the menu. * Partner ordered beer, not available & substituted for another option * Ordered the Pinot Grigio, was surprised at how small a pour was served & was disappointed the restaurant used thick-bottomed weighted glass to make it feel as though the serving was much more than the actual volume poured. * Plate Pass provided a small discount on the order, but drinks were not worth the price. Tip: Have your drinks before your dine-in for food-only, or order food pick-up & enjoy your own drinks at home.

    Love it

    Absolutely love this place! I tried a lot of dishes, but this lamb with mushed potatoes was the best!

    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.

    Chimichurri Grass Fed Steak
    Kristi T.

    Urban Plates is always a solid choice, and this location's food quality is consistent. I always order a steak dish or salad and my steaks are always perfectly cooked. Their sides are super tasty as well! You place your order at the kiosk, take a number, and your order will be brought out to you. Utensils, condiments, and beverages are self serve. There is a parking garage with ample parking. Seating is plentiful as well. I've worked from Urban Plates in the past and it is a great spot for working and studying. Highly recommend if you're craving this type of cuisine!

    grilled grass fed steak with mac n cheese and quinoa
    Annie G.

    Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 Food is pretty good here! The grass fed steak is worth its price, it's a decent amount of steak with big sides, and I usually eat it as two meals. We got grilled and chimichurri this time, the steak is made really similarly and the chimichurri flavor is in a separate container you can dip or pour over the steak. I got the sides mac n cheese, which was eh and kinda cold, and also got the quinoa which was good. My partner got rainbow carrots and potatoes, and they're decently flavored and cooked thoroughly. We otherwise got a burger and a crispy chicken sandwich for later meals, chicken sandwich could've had more pickles but it was cooked well! The menu has a decent variety of items overall and I definitely want to come back to try more. We've also tried hummingbird cake here and it's pretty good, not my favorite cake but a fun dessert. We got takeout this time, but we've dined in before and service is friendly and efficient. With takeout our food was made really quickly and still plenty warm when we got home. There's a large covered parking right next to the restaurant, and pickup is right at the front door. There's indoor and outdoor seating in the sense that the outdoor seating has a roof and walls with doors to enter the area without it being completely sealed, it's nice to sit and enjoy the fresh air even when it's raining! Overall we really like this area and like to stop by when we're in Sunnyvale.

    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!

    Braised Beef & Mushrooms
    Yuria G.

    We visited around noon on Sunday, and it wasn't too crowded. The restaurant had a spacious and relaxing atmosphere. You can order from the touchscreen or by scanning the QR code on the table, which is nice since you can see pictures of the dishes before ordering. Braised Beef & Mushrooms: You can choose between mashed potatoes or rice. The red wine sauce went really well with the slightly spicy rice. Chicken Tender Plate: You can pick two sides and two sauces. I liked that you can also add soup for an extra charge, so the plate is a great option if you want to try a bit of everything. Mango Tart: The mango was juicy, and the tart had a refreshing aftertaste. I'd love to try their other cakes next time! We also got the Dragon Fruit & Strawberry Replenisher and Green Tea, and both were light and refreshing. I liked that the restaurant offers healthy dishes at a reasonable price!

It's like because they know they don't have to see the person or the person won't come to the store they cheat them. If someone is ordering DoorDash they are already paying more than the menu price.
