Delicious sandwiches on focaccia bread! We ended up trying the Club and SoCal sandwiches. The flavors were great and the bread tasted so soft and fresh. I do wish they had a little more substance to them but I do feel satisfied. Also got to try the enchilada soup, which was a little salty and most likely from a can. Still helped my soup craving though! I've had the cookies before and they were really good but today it was way too sweet and "sticky". The dough kept sticking to my teeth and it was not a good way to end the meal. read more

Decided to try out this new place with one of my friends. We were looking to eat a more nutrient-dense and filling meal and we definitely chose the right spot. The baja bowl was amazing & I especially loved how the nutritional information is available for every item on the menu. The cashiers and servers were so helpful and knew their menu very well. I also loved being able to sit down inside and catch up over a meal. I'm adding Urbane to my list of spots to eat in Riverside! read more

My sister and I had just driven 13 hours in the rain from Northern California and I had flown from Maryland just before that. We were tired and needed some healthy food. Urbane Cafe was near our hotel and looked good. It really was!! My sister had the UC Banh Mi which she enjoyed. I saw the Mediterranean Bowl on the wall menu and didn't even look at the rest of the menu. It was perfect! Flavorful mixed grain rice, red pepper hummus, pickled onions, tomatoes and cucumbers with a 1/4-round of focaccia. I'm not a huge kale fan, but it was good too and nicely marinated. The star of the dish was the roasted sweet potato that brought a hint of sweetness to each bite. I sure wish you were in Maryland!! Healthy, whole food and vegetarian options are much harder to find out here. read more

Honestly blows Panera or any other sandwich cafe I've been to out the water, so good!! All the sandwiches we ordered tasted super fresh and delicious you can taste the quality of ingredients and the bread is so soft and pillowy. I love how they use the same bread for all sandwiches. The cilantro, bbq, and the pesto were all so good. The bowls are excellent as well super refreshing and nice portions, we ordered the Baja bowl love the Mexican infusion of black beans and corn! The enchilada soup is one of a kind it's as if tomato bisque and chicken tortilla soup had a baby lol! Super creamy and taste amazing. Lastly the white chocolate cookies were great super chunky and love the whole pieces of cranberry they added in. Overall great place to grab a nice refreshing salad, sandwich or bowl highly recommend this gem! read more

Just moved to the area and was looking for something fresh and healthy that wasn't Subway. Luckily Urbane Cafe had just opened last week and I happened to be in the nearby strip mall parking lot. The menu offers a wide variety of fast casual dining options (sandwiches, salads, soups, and bowls), but with elevated flavor profiles. The current specials that I saw when I was there included a seared ahi tuna bowl, a shrimp po boy sandwich, and a shrimp bowl. I ordered The Ahi salad which had a generous portion of ahi tuna on top that was perfectly seared. The Japanese chili dressing that comes with it was very tasty, but not particularly spicy. It reminded me of a more flavorful, less thick version of Kewpie mayo. I also appreciate that all salads are served with the dressing on the side as the default. Even though they just opened all of the staff was well trained and very friendly. I can't wait to come back to try more! read more

History

Established in 2003.

It all started in 2003 when owner Tom Holt realized there was a missing niche in the Ventura restaurant scene. He wanted a great sandwich and salad, something different, while still being dedicated to delicious-tasting food. He understood that every great sandwich starts with the freshest of bread, so he designed the cafe around a hearth oven. Working with his friend Pete, they came up with a bread recipe that was soft, delicious and baked fresh, right in front of your eyes. It didn't stop there though, he created a menu centered around locally sourced ingredients, juicy-roasted meats, and crafted sauces to give each creation its own unique flavor. Urbane Cafe loves being the place where friends, family, and communities gather to celebrate and make memories over delicious food. Our passion is to have our guests walk out happy every time and keep them coming back for more.

Meet the Business Owner: Tom H.

Tom Holt is the owner, founder and Chief Bread Head of Urbane Cafe. As a young child Tom developed a love for motocross racing. His first career was at the age of sixteen when he became a professional motocross racer. In 2003, Tom Holt's vision was to bring a great-tasting, healthy, and affordable sandwich and salad restaurant to the friendly people of Ventura, California: a nice, small town where he grew up. Urbane Cafe quickly became the gathering place where people meet to engage, relax and enjoy a great meal at a great value. The success of that first location proved that Tom had struck a chord with the local community. Urbane Cafe is all family owned and has continued to expand since 2003 to multiple locations across California.

The service is always pretty quick here, even when I ask for my dogs to be well done. I love the decor inside of this place, because it's a throwback to an old time. Chicago era. The only thing I wish they do is get rid of their kiosks to order because I don't like when businesses replace employees with computers. That's my only gripe.

Didn't taste anything close to it even with all organic ingredients. And it was $11 for a slice. Berrys were soggy and not fresh. The cream was bland. The cake did not taste like cake and was overly spongey texture. I ordered a smoothie and waited 15 minutes.. I ended up asking for a refund because it was not that busy and after I ordered the smoothie the employee started making a pizza.. the employees are kind but this store is not it. Ambiance is peaceful. Wouldn't be back or recommend to anyone.

"No problem," I I thought. "Might be a fluke. I'll give them another chance." Second time back, I waited five minutes at the counter while the three women working did various other tasks. That wouldn't have been too much of an issue if they bothered to make any acknowledgement whatsoever of the customers lining up. A simple "Be with you as soon as we can" would suffice. Instead, we were left standing there without so much as even a glance. I finally just left without ordering and went further down the shopping center to Bushfire, where-- guess what? We were greeted immediately upon entering despite the line.

Urbané Cafe absolutely blew me away. The food was incredible -- every bite was packed with fresh, delicious flavor. You can tell they really care about the quality of their ingredients and the love they put into each dish. The service? Top tier. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and made the whole visit feel extra special. They were quick, friendly, and genuinely cared that we had a great experience. And the place itself? Immaculately clean, modern, and super inviting. You feel comfortable the moment you walk in. I highly, highly recommend Urbané Cafe to anyone looking for amazing food, outstanding service, and a spotless, welcoming atmosphere. Can't wait to come back! read more

5 Stars - Great Lunch Spot! I had a great experience at Urbane Cafe! I ordered the Pesto & Sun-Dried Tomato sandwich with a side of Tomato Soup with Gouda cheese, and everything was delicious. My mom got the Crunchy Peanut Salad, and she loved it too. The flavors were fresh, and the quality was great. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, but they have nice outdoor seating, which makes for a comfortable dining experience. The cashier who took our order was very kind and welcoming, which added to the positive vibe. Overall, it's a perfect spot for a tasty and casual lunch. I'll definitely be returning! read more

Me and my wife came here she ordered from here and I got something next door. We sat outside next door and the manager with that tattoos brought it over and even through out our time she checked in my wife. Great customer service because she didn't have to since we were sitting at another establishment. This is why we love Urbane! read more

The vibe at Urbane Cafe is nice and chill, perfect for a quick bite or catch-up with friends. Their menu offers a decent selection of fresh salads and sandwiches, but sometimes it feels a bit repetitive. Service is generally friendly, though wait times can vary. Overall, a solid spot but not quite exceptional. read more

Totally different from what I had but still can feed me for two meals. The place was renovated but the ceiling remains the same-vents and ceiling fans are full of dust. It will be my first and last time to use their bathroom. I only washed my hands but I noticed that the sink is not cleaned for a while and the toilet is not thoroughly cleaned as well. We came in really early. The OPEN sign is not even on yet. I only addressed this so that they can make it presentable for everyone who wants to come back as their customers. Bathrooms are one of the reflections on how clean and how well the shop is kept. I hope when I get back, I can change my rating for them.

I used to order here a lot a year (or two?) ago when coupons were more abundant. I would get orders…read more50% off with free delivery a lot, so it was a crazy good deal, healthy and macro friendly, and convenient as well. I stopped because they nerfed the coupons and rewards system at some point and it wasn't cost effective anymore. I was excited to get another 50% off coupon recently. The menu is largely unchanged from the previous years, with the addition of like 2 or 3 new plates. There is a lot to choose from with a good chunk of those options being high protein. There's just much more variety than other meal prep services and the meals don't get as boring and repetitive. I was a little annoyed that my order arrived about 40 minutes earlier than scheduled, so I had to rush home from the gym to get it. My impression was that several of the plates felt quite light and looked to have suspiciously tiny portions of protein. You can tell by eyeballing that the provided macros are... optimistic. I couldn't be bothered to weigh every plate, but I did weigh the most obvious offender. The Southwest Chipotle Chicken Bowl claimed to be 411g not including the bowl and it weighed 366g with the bowl. I definitely don't trust the labels, as there's simply no way there's 25g of protein in like an oz of diced chicken. Food was fresh (other than the seafood, which I absolutely do not recommend) and tasted good. Overall, I would sort of recommend for the convenience, but be sure to weigh your bowls so you can make sure you're getting what you paid for.

I would have ordered more of a side if I had known it was more of a garnish. The pad see ew was good as well, hot and fresh! Would like to try their curries next time.

I'd come back here again!!…read more I saw this food truck at the Arco gas station & was curious about it, so I did a quick google search to check the reviews. The reviews were outstanding, so i decided to order a box to-go to share with my bf. And IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT. Yes, it's a little pricey but everything is so well seasoned! I forgot the name of the item I got, but the fries were so good!! (I typically hate fries). And the garlic dip we each had was delicious!! The burrito was so good! The server had a thick accent but he was very attentive & helped us on the questions we had. I'm not even from the area but I'll be back to try some of their other popular items! FYI - you can bring a bag of chips and they will load it up with your choice of meat, garlic sauce, tahini sauce, fresh veggies, and cheese for $10! As advertised on their truck.

Here is what my daughter and I ordered: * Monark Steak w Rice - We returned it, it tasted like fish, it was chewy.The picture is deceiving, trust me. I returned it, told them whatever was cooked prior to my steak was what my plate tasted like. * Kung Pao w Rice - Who could mess this plate up, well they did. The chicken was funky, old or maybe "Gamey", whatever it was, it wasnt good. We left have the plate and decided it was time to leave. I thanked the waitress gave her a nice cash tip, partly because I felt bad for her, she didn't look surprised. It must happen alot. Safe to say, I will never come back. Until next time, be safe yall, and never visit the Monark!
