Anahi deserves the $100 and a raise. The sandwich was yummy too I guess . Her and the staff were incredibly friendly and also deserve raises (especially in this economy). read more

"The Ahi" bowl was a perfect lunch today with fresh salad ingredients, edamame, radishes, and ahi that was delicious. Highly recommended! read more

Urbane Cafe - Ahi salad bowl was excellent! - Sandwiches Near Me - San Luis Obispo, California

Didn't have a great experience getting take out from this spot. I ordered a mediterranean bowl, which came with quinoa, kale, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, pickled red onion, red pepper hummus and then I added grilled chicken. It came to $22, expected price but not cheap. I placed the order through door dash and it was ready when I got there. When I got back to my hotel, the chicken was just awful, Not the right texture, possibly raw but possibly just bad quality. It wasn't chewing, it tasted like I was biting into raw chicken, whatever that consistency is. Bad experience and based on the reviews it doesn't seem like the norm, more a fluke. Unfortunately I wouldn't come back here because of that though. read more

Don't be early for the lunch rush. I love this place but today I got yesterday's bread and lettuce. I couldn't eat much of it, had to pick through it, and didn't feel like pointing out the obvious to the staff. read more

Urbane Cafe - Cilantro chicken salad - Sandwiches Near Me - San Luis Obispo, California

This is kinda a fast food joint but with better quality food. I had a salad with chicken, pear, and avocado. My husband had a Mediterranean chicken bowl. The bread that came with the meal was very tasty. Service is just the person at the register and a runner, it was fine. They have indoor and outdoor tables. The only thing that was a bummer was that the restrooms are definitely a no go zone, very badly maintained. I would recommend not using them, and I don't say this lightly. read more

Great place for sandwiches in downtown SLO. Will definitely be back next time I'm in the area.

My first time checking out Urbane Cafe and I will admit that I have already recommended it to a few friends in the area. I loved that the menu wasn't overwhelming and that I was able to order two things I couldn't decide between and didn't break the bank. The Salmon bowl and the BBQ sandwich were top tier. I enjoyed every bite and still had some to take home. They also offer a variety of fresh fruit waters and natural sodas. The service was delightful and a very clean space to enjoy an impromptu lunch as I made my way through San Luis Obispo. read more

We ordered take out and love all the healthy options. The restroom was clean. I will eat there again.

Customer service was great and everyone was so kind. The food was amazing and didn't take long to be ready!

Popped into this place for a quick bite while visiting Cal Poly SLO. All the different dishes we got -- uniformly fresh and delicious. Tried their sandwiches and bowls and really liked the balance of sauce/flavoring with letting the natural ingredients come through. Just prepared very well and even nice to look at. What impressed me even more though was the service. They were super busy while we were there and we admittedly mixed up the name of a dish. Twice. When the food came and we finally figured it out, they were incredible gracious and kindly fixed it all for us without even a hint of annoyance. All while serving the gazillion other folks without missing a beat. Just super competent manager and staff. Top class. read more

The store always has such a clean environment. The prices of the food is so fair. I prefer the bowls over the sandwiches and it doesn't disappoint. The options are very health conscious, but the flavors are still all there. The workers are always so nice as well! ig: @cravingswithcat read more

A great experience. I ran across this place on my drive back from LA and decided to take a chance without any research. The sandwiches came in fresh soft pita like breads, ingredients meshed well and the salad extra fresh. read more

A super consistent spot that's pretty good. The chicken is some of my favorite I've had in salads, it's moist and soft. The salad was a good portion and had a great selection of toppings. Also the dressing was great read more

Delicious fresh ingredients and lots to choose from. My whole family was very happy with their choice. Staff was friendly and talkative and efficient! Great spot in town read more

Saying that the food was 10/10 was an understatement. Urbane does well in blending healthy foods with tasty sauces and spices. You'll always leave here knowing that you got what's best for your body in terms of nutrients and vitamins. The staff is equally as great; all are very welcoming. I'd like to especially give kudos to Lucero, who welcomed me in and took my order in as quickly as possible in such a professional manner. She gave a great recommendation for the salmon bowl, though I had already heard it was good, which proves just how much the staff know their stuff. She even offered to clean up my area and take my dishes after I had finished. 10/10 service as well. Ambience was great too. I like the casual seats and booths that almost make me feel like I'm at the park, though the music is too "coworker-like" for me. I came in at a relatively busy time (most of the seats were taken up), but the food still came out quickly. Though I didn't sit outside, it seemed like a nice area to people watch/ talk with a group while you wait for the food. A little on the pricey side, mainly with the beverage and dessert added, but overall, not a bad place in the heart of downtown. Thank you to the staff for the amazing service, I would definitely come here again if Lucero was any example of how the rest of the team is. read more

Urbane Cafe has cemented itself as one of my top 3 favorite restaurants in SLO. The sun dried tomato sandwich and salmon bowl are my personal favorites, and the side of focaccia is a nice touch. I also appreciate the friendly service and relatively affordable prices for a top tier health food! read more

Five stars for the presentation of the seared ahi bowl, the taste, and the reasonable prices. I love that they make their own focaccia bread and that it was included with my entree. This is a restaurant chain, although I have never heard of it before. They had clean bathrooms and didn't require me to buy anything to use them. Metered parking available all over the place so it shouldn't be a problem to find parking. The cashier was friendly and the food came in less than 5 minutes. read more

The food was quite good, had the Californian vegetarian sandwich. The attitude and lack of friendliness by the staff was disappointing. Had to go back and get napkins because the self service container was empty. No one on the staff asked if we needed anything or if the food was satisfactory. Perhaps emulating a the staff at the yogurt place next door would change the cold atmosphere. read more

I have been coming to Urbane Cafe for many years and it never disappoints. The sandwiches have good flavor the aioli in the salad is so tasty and it's such a cute place to grab lunch. In this location specifically, Izzy is so kind and took my order with precision. The food came out in a timely manner and the store is clean. Will be coming back! read more

Wow wow wow! A definite five star for Urbane Cafe. We just happened to stumble across this place as soon as we found a parking spot that happened to be right across the street. The name itself exudes freshness. And that's exactly what we got for our casual dinner fare. The menu boast a decent variety of cold and hot sandwiches as well as salads. It's not your standard deli, and instead there are many options to satisfy those who want something as basic as a grilled cheese to those who like a little bit of flair. This is a fast casual type of dining experience where you place your order at the counter, and they give you a number to identify your order and bring your order directly to you when it is ready. We ordered the Portobello mushroom sandwich that is served on focaccia type bread and it comes with a side garden salad. Also, we ordered the salmon salad which comes with a side of Chipotle creamy dressing and the same focaccia bread. Both were excellent! Portion sizes were significant and definitely were a great value. But even better than that were the flavors and freshness of the ingredients. They say that a good nutricious meal contains many different colors of foods and surely the pictures provided here are representative of the terrific presentation and taste! There is plenty of dining spaces inside and in the outdoor patio. On a cool but still warm evening we thoroughly enjoyed dining outdoors. If you're looking for casual fare, lunch or dinner, when in downtown SLO, this is a definite recommend. I can't wait to return again! read more

Urbane Cafe, with its smattering of students, and families glowing under great lighting, delights its customers with its warm and friendly service, reminiscent of frequenting a friend's urban home. The salads are faultlessly crisp and fresh, the greens crunching in your mouth, their vibrant flavors lifted by the appropriate smattering of dressings. For those in search of something a little heartier, the Bella Portobello Sandwich or the Cilantro Torta come highly recommended - characterized by filling ingredients richly flavored but skillfully balanced so as not to drown out the key player - their fresh bread! To note the prices are a tad on the higher side for the area, but their unique twists, like serving banh mi on focaccia bread, makes it worth that extra buck. Seafood fans won't want to overlook the ahi or salmon salad - both dishes presenting succulent, well-seasoned seafood that pairs beautifully with their chosen dressings and garnishes. For lighter fare, the chicken poblano pepper soup acts as a soothing culinary blessing, while the shrimp salad bowl promises a medley of crispness and umami. Urbane Cafe does a great job in making you feel welcome with its swift and efficient service and proves to be a breath of fresh air even amidst the hustle and bustle of a farmer's market Thursday evening or a busy downtown street. Don't get flummoxed if the seating indoors gets snapped up - they offer plenty of under-the-sky alternatives inside a cosy, covered area out front. Quick tip - ask for the WiFi password and enjoy some free internet along with your healthy, scrumptious meal. To wash down your meal, be sure to check out their range of awesome craft beverages. Definitely would suggest also exploring their variety of craft beers and sodas, the latter using cane sugar and mixing them up. read more

My husband and I both had a salad. We went to the one in San Luis Obispo. The place was nothing to write home about, but the salads were delicious. Just what we were looking for.

Ordered today online. Quick easy process, website easy to navigate for ordering pickup. Online order took less than 15 mins from order to pickup.

I LOVE Urbane! I could seriously eat the Cranberry and Brie sandwich everyday. It's like Thanksgiving year round. So delicious. And the side salad with it makes for a perfect compliment. I really like sitting outside at this location. It's in a great downtown part of SLO. There's not a parking lot right at this location but there is street parking or parking structures to utilize. My husband really likes their Santa Maria BBQ sandwich. Everything always tastes fresh and the staff are friendly! read more

This place has such bad customer service. I was told I would be receiving a refund for an order mishap the hour of it happening, and to reorder since they'll handle it later that day and I will get my money back. I went in person to pick up my new order and to just get the refund in person and I was told to wait until later that day because they were busy. How are you too busy to give me a refund?? I was told four times I would receive a call back, and then an email of confirmation of the refund, but they haven't done it. Every single time I call, I am told that they are busy and they will do it later or call me back but they do not follow through. It's been two weeks at this point and I still haven't received my $22 refund nor an email confirmation. It's nuts and you cannot be too busy to respond to a customer for TWO weeks. I work in customer service as well so I was understanding and kind whenever I would call obviously, but at this point I am irritated by the blatant lies and disrespect. It sucks because I typically love the bowls here read more

Great after-church lunch. Food is good or average. The tomato soup is grrrreat. The service is very sincere and/or genuine it feels as if they are speaking to you as a client, a good thing... at least in my opinion. read more

This is a healthy casual food option. There were bowls and sandwiches and soups, with plenty of vegan and gluten-free options. With the oven making fresh focaccia up front, I ordered a sandwich. The banh mi was tasty and unusual with a focaccia bun. It was messy (needed two napkins and a fork), but I would order it again. The salad that accompanied it was so much better than the typical free side salad. It was dressed with a fresh herbal vinaigrette and not a single leaf was wilted or past its prime. There is indoor seating, which has that fast food vibe, and a covered outdoor area, where you are mostly protected from the occasional rain shower. read more

Ordered the Mediterranean bowl and added salmon. I recently moved to the area and had been missing Luna Grill for their quick but healthy options for takeout, but this is even better! I was very happy with the portion size, quality and taste of the garlic roasted red pepper hummus!! I'll definitely be back read more

Urbane Cafe - Mediterranean bowl with salmon - Sandwiches Near Me - San Luis Obispo, California

This is a great place to stop for sandwiches, salads, and soups. You are given a number after ordering at the counter, and they bring the food to your table. Plenty of seating inside, and also covered outdoor seating outside the front doors. The Ahi Salad is a favorite of mine. I have ordered it a few times because it's so good. Husband chose the Salmon Salad, substituting Balsamic Vinaigrette in place of the Chipotle Ranch dressing. Soup & Salad combo. Kiddo chose the Tomato soup. She was very happy with the soup. And she loved the mandarins that came with the house side salad (even though she normally doesn't like anything orange/citrusy). There is free wifi at this location; ask them for the wifi password. There are also 2 restrooms at the back of the restaurant ... head toward the back and hang a right at the fire extinguisher on the wall. There is no obvious "restroom" sign visible indicating that bathrooms are available. There is no diaper changing area in the restroom.
