I love Urbane Cafe tofu sandwiches! They have tofu banh mi & sweet chili crunch tofu options - awesome for a vegan lite person such as myself. You can add or subtract any ingredients that you prefer on the app. Today I ordered a sandwich with a substitution for the sauce & they called me before making it to be sure of what I wanted! Such good service & so kind! read more

Urban Cafe is one of my go to spots to pick up a quick lunch on the go! My favorites are the southwest chicken salad, and pesto, sun-dried tomato, chicken sandwich. I love their iced tea as well and sometimes I even get a freshly baked cookie for dessert! The service is always friendly and quick. read more

You can never go wrong with urbane! The food is always amazing! I have tried few locations and food is always consistently good. I have ordered here few times through DoorDash and it's always ready when I get there. My all time favorite is Baja bowl! I have tried the sun-dried tomato with chicken and steak, it's never a disappointment! So will definitely return and continue to support this great business read more

Solid 3 stars for the food, but the service was a 5 with a friendly and quick staff! So 4. The food wasn't bad, but it just lacked flavor for me. I ordered the Californian sandwich and added tofu for protein. The artichokes tasted like they were from a can... Maybe switching to artichokes in a glass jar might help? The tofu was cooked nicely, but I wish there was more sun-dried tomato because a little more of that flavor could have improved the sandwich. My husband ordered the pastrami Tri-tip sandwich and he also thought it was just ok. Not bad, but not knock your socks off. I like their menu a lot, so I will give it another try and update my review then. It was a beautiful day, so we sat on the patio which was clean and shaded. read more

I love this location and have been frequenting for years. I trust the staff here. They are always attentive and accommodating. I haven't been to an Urbane Cafe that wasn't good, but this is my favorite. The staff is courteous, professional and honestly, something I would expect from a five star dining establishment. The food is always great and of great quality. The place is clean. Bathrooms too. Love anything with bacon, turkey, feta cheese, that balsamic vinaigrette, avocado, and that delicious fresh focaccia bread. The price of the meals fits what you get, and it's enough food for two. And they are fast! This is one of few places left where I don't question the quality and safe preparation of food. read more

Violent food poisoning with ER admission. I ordered the chimichurri steak sandwich around 7pm and it tasted off and had way too much sauce. Sure enough 5 hours later I had food poisoning so badly that I may have died without care. I spent all day ib the ER after several black out episodes . The doc confirmed definite food poisoning as all labs and scans came back clean. I vomitted more times in a 3 hour period than I have in my entire life. So badly that it pulled muscles in my back. It took the entire week to recover. Still not 100% Do. Not. Eat. Here. I am filing a thourough report with health inspectors. read more

Was disgusted to find a course black hair in my salmon bowl upon picking up my order today for lunch. I had already eaten half of the bowl prior to finding the hair attached to the sweet potato and felt so grossed out. I'm disgusted by the thought of what if I ate more hairs I didn't see? I immediately contacted the store to request a refund. Although they said they will refund my order, there was no apology or any sort of caring words offered by the employee I spoke with about this. They need to do better with their food safety. Employees should wear a hair net when prepping food - nasty AF! Won't be coming back read more

One of my trusted doctors recently suggested a dietary change, and I'm figuring out how to make that work when out at restaurants. Thankfully, Urbane Cafe has so many varied options for its guests. As someone else suggested, they can accommodate vegetarian, pescatarian, vegan, and other diet styles. Dear Hubby and I stopped by to have a late lunch. We shared the Golden Turkey seasonal sandwich, holding the pepper jack (drat, dairy-free diet!). It was already prepared with veganaise, so that worked out. Their freshly prepared bread makes their 'wiches a winner. The cashier was very friendly and helpful with questions we had about other menu items before deciding on the Golden Turkey. The Manager on duty was also welcoming and got us sorted out on where the water cups hide for complimentary water. Normally we would have dined outside, but there was a cool breeze in the air. Inside, the air conditioning made it almost as cold as outside. We picked a table with the sun coming in the window, which gave a bit more warmth. We did each enjoy one of their cookies. Likely not vegan, but I'm working up to it. We've been here several times, but I'd forgotten to review until now. It's a solid choice for fast casual dining. Very convenient to the 101, and jumping-off point to get to The Oaks Mall or Janss Marketplace. read more

I ordered the southwest chicken sandwich. The chicken was grilled to perfection and very flavorful. The avocado with the southwest sauce was great. The Brest was toasted to perfection and very soft. The side salad was the perfect combination with the salad. The sandwich all together was delicious and the flavors we're hitting on all levels. The customer service was great and very helpful.

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 'Äì 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'Äôt 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'Äôs 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.

After a long day at the office I decided not to cook dinner. Since Sweetgreen, is on my way home and I've been wanting to give them a try so I thought I'd give it a try. What a great decision! I ordered their Harvest Salad (lots of healthy and organic greens and various other veggies, the diced chicken was so "Lip Smacking Good"! Dressing was flavored just right. I love the fact that my server asked how I liked my dressing mixed in the salad (light, slightly heavy or heavy). I went with lightly heavy, it was perfect!). For my drink I ordered their home made, Green Apple and Ginger. Very good as well. Serving size wise, there is enough for two days worth of a meal or for two people to share. Prices were reasonable for organic, fresh & crispy salad. Service was excellent. Dine in our out, it's your choice! Very clean! Location: Conveniently located off the 101 Freeway at Westlake Blvd, in the Promenade shopping center is. Dress casual. Sweetgreen is definitely my new "Go Too" place to get a healthy and filling Organice Salad, or Salad bowels. They have a nice variety to select from. Don't take my word for it! Whether you live in the area or just passing thru, check it out! You will be glad you did!

Sweetgreen in Westlake has become one of my go-to healthy spots, mainly because of their salmon…read moresalad. The salmon is consistently cooked well, the greens are fresh, and everything tastes clean and balanced. It's filling without feeling heavy, which is exactly what I want. I honestly started loving Sweetgreen after seeing Olandria from Love Island talk about it, and now I get the hype. It's simple, nourishing, and easy to rely on when you want real food. The Westlake location has a relaxed outdoor vibe, and service is usually quick and friendly. Perfect for a healthy lunch or post-workout meal.

5/5 -- Freshness, Flavor, & Feel-Good Vibes!…read more Mendocino Farms is my happy place in sandwich form. The moment you walk in, the ambience has this bright, breezy energy--like the whole shop is rooting for you to have a delicious day. Everything feels clean, modern, and welcoming, the kind of spot where you could eat, relax, and maybe even rethink your life goals because the food is that good. Their salads? A celebration. Every bite is crunchy, colorful, and bold, like they convinced a farmers market to jump into a bowl. The sandwiches are stacked with flavor--thoughtful, hearty, and the kind you remember long after the crumbs disappear. And the soups have that cozy "made with love" warmth that lands exactly where you need it. But wait... their drinks. Their soda fountain is a whole adventure--sparkly, fun, and full of unexpected little flavor treasures. And the lemonades? Out of this world. Like sunshine decided to become a beverage. Tart, sweet, bright, and instantly mood-lifting. If you want food that tastes fresh, feels good, and somehow turns lunch into a tiny celebration, Mendocino Farms is the spot. It's the kind of place that makes eating well feel joyful.

Staff was attentive…read more I ordered online and didn't have to wait too long, probably because it was at the end of the day. I ordered the chef special "Not so fried chicken sandwich salad". It wasn't to my liking and was very hard for me to finish it. It had a large scoop of mustard pickle slaw that made the whole salad soggy. It also has vinaigrette and pickled red onions that made it a bit too sour for my tastes. The bbq dressing tried to cut through the sourness, but didn't do too much. I liked the Mendo crispies which gave it a nice crunch. I guess the dressing and slaw is what killed this salad for me. My wife ordered the Baja Green goddess which was delicious! Overall, wasn't a good experience for me because I didn't enjoy what I ordered. Maybe next time.

We ordered the Lomo Saltado plate, which came topped with egg and avocado, and it was incredible. The beef was tender, the flavors were rich and savory, and everything blended together perfectly. You can tell a lot of care goes into the seasoning and preparation because every bite was super flavorful. For dessert, we had the count flan, and wow... it was the perfect way to end the meal. Smooth, creamy, and just the right amount of sweetness. Warning, the habanero sauce is hella spicy. I couldn't stop sweeting (Just stick to the jalapeño sauce that they give you. I like spicy so I also got the habanero sauce, my goodness!! Overall, the food was very flavorful, satisfying, and well prepared.

My mom quote thinks "the bathrooms are good and the server has tact" this is referring to her saying we will be back and the server saying "you better" but in a friendly way. She was friendly in other ways too in that she made small talk with my sibling and parents. The pictures are bad because we already ate them. They were very pretty coming out of the kitchen. My dad also liked the bathroom he said the employees must wash hands sign was very big and he appreciated it. He then proceeded to tell 2 jokes involving those signs and my sister told a story as well. My mom replaced a toilet roll in the bathroom also. (Important information she told me) Overall very cool very nice. Also my mom had a Peruvian beer which she said was good and my sister a pineapple lemonade which I tasted and can confirm is good if you happen to like sweet fruit tasting drinks. Epic times B)

It's not just "good"--it's "I-might-need-to-order-a-second-one-for-the-drive-home" delicious. Fresh, flavorful, and hits the spot every single time. Whether you're a regular or just passing through the 91301, do yourself a favor and stop by. Your taste buds will thank you, even if your kitchen starts feeling a little neglected. Definitely worth the hype!

I've tried Uncle AF twice now, and both experiences were pretty different so here's my honest take…read more The first time, my friend picked up food and brought it to me. We tried one of their top sellers, the Firecracker Chicken, plus a turkey sandwich (can't remember the exact name). The turkey sandwich was okay but a little dry, I wasn't sure if it had mayo/garlic or some kind of sauce because it felt like it needed a little more moisture. The Firecracker Chicken, though, was truly fire flavorful and really good. That first experience made me excited to come back and dine in. The second time, we went on a Saturday afternoon. There were a few people there, but we ended up waiting about five minutes before anyone came to the register since everyone seemed to be in the back. I believe this is a Mom/Pop/Family owned business but it was a little awkward just waiting around trying to get someone's attention. We ordered the Firecracker Chicken again, and my friend got another chicken sandwich I don't remember the name it was some chicken thigh sandwich. Oh we also ordered a side of onion rings $8.00 though for onion rings. Honestly, complete rip off and it was a small portion and they weren't even that good. The owner was very nice and even gave me a complimentary iced tea that he said is one of their popular drinks great gesture, although personally I wasn't a big fan of the tea. Food-wise, this time just didn't hit the same. The Firecracker Chicken tasted very different from the first time I had it, and unfortunately neither of us really loved our sandwiches. Oddly enough, I took my sandwich home and ate it a couple hours later, and it tasted way better than when it was fresh maybe the flavors settled in or maybe their panini-style sandwiches just work better slightly cooled. Overall, the service and friendliness were great, and I can see why people enjoy this place. For me, the consistency just wasn't there between visits. I'd say it's more of a 3.5-star experience, but rounding up to 4 because there's definitely potential and some really strong flavors when they're on point and service. But all in all it was good, wouldn't be my top choice when in the area.

I'm sorry to say that I have no photos of our catered meal from Stonefire, but I can assure you,…read morethe food, delivery and quality were all OUTSTANDING !!! We ordered the MEGAFEAST, which feeds 12, but since we were having 15 guests, we added a bit more to the order. It truly was a feast, and everything was delicious !! We had Caesar salad, and BTW, they have THE BEST Caesar dressing on this EARTH !! Always have... always will... and I've had a LOT of Caesar dressing in my life to make this proclamation. The order also included their breadsticks, lemon garlic chicken, BBQ tri-trip, tri-tip with pepper gorgonzola sauce, baby back ribs, rigatoni with pesto sauce, mashed potatoes with garlic pieces and cheese, as well as mac 'n cheese. We also added 2 cheese pizzas, and for dessert, we added Stonefire's carrot cake and cheesecake. (Neither the pizza nor desserts were part of the initial order.) All the guests loved the food, and there was enough left over to send "doggie bags" home with everyone. We paid enough to qualify for Stonefire to deliver AND set up the food, which was fabulous. They showed up exactly when we asked. They brought plates, utensils, and LOADS of serving pieces. We wanted for nothing !! I'm not going to lie... it was costly, BUT it was worth it. I had out-of-town family visiting, but thanks to Stonefire, I didn't have to lift a finger or be removed from any festivities because they did it all for us. It was worth EVERY dollar we paid. I'd surely do it again !

Their BBQ meat and BBQ sauce is amazing, love the chicken, tri-tip ribs, everything. They also have some very good pasta options, great salads (their blue cheese is on point) their pizza is also very good. If you like deserts, they have you covered there too. Their carrot cake is my favorite, some of the best I have had. Nice place to go food to go for home or a party or a comfortable spot to eat lunch or dinner. This location is large and has a lot of indoor seating as well as a nice outdoor patio. They have lunch specials, dinners for families of 4,6 or more, $13 promos, stimulus packages, catering, à la cart, etc. something for everyone. You order as you walk in and get a buzzer and go sit down. Once your order is ready, they bring it to your table. Great service from the moment you walk in and as you done they come around and ensure you have all you need. If the above was not enough for you, they also have some great perks for Students and Military. As a student with a student ID, you can get a 15% discount. If you are Military, you get a 50% discount! That is amazing! They have a large parking lot all around the building, so parking will be a breeze for you. Enjoy!

If you're in the area and want a solid sandwich that actually tastes like it was made with care... get the 805. Trust me. Definitely coming back. Pro tip: I added extra onions and jalapeños and took away the mayo (I prefer a certain type of Mayo brand). My preferred flavor profile: Umami-forward (savory/salty depth) Acidic / bright (tangy + sour) Pungent & intense (spicy + bitter notes)

Bottega Italian Deli in Thousand Oaks is basically a sandwich dealership. You walk in "just to…read morelook" and leave emotionally attached to a hot Italian like it paid your rent. Food? Stupid good. Bread's legit, meat's piled up like they're trying to protect you from starvation trauma, and everything tastes fresh like somebody's nonna is in the back judging your life choices. One bite and you're like... yeah ok, I get why people act feral about this place. But the line? Chaos. Not "organized deli line," more like "everyone just kinda vibes near the counter and hopes they get noticed." You'll see one dude who's been standing there 8 minutes pretending he's fine but he's clearly spiraling. And there's always someone ordering like it's their last meal: "Can I do the #7 but no onions, extra peppers, sauce on the side, cut it like triangles, and tell it I'm proud of it?" Relax, it's a sandwich, not a therapy session. Prices aren't cheap, but neither is happiness, so whatever. Overall: 4.5/5. If you want a real Italian deli sandwich that'll make Subway feel like a prank, go here. Just be ready to fight for your spot in the deli ecosystem.

The sandwich portions are hefty and they are well loaded. We felt like we got our money's worth in freshness and quantity. The veggie sandwich was a bit bland and needed a better balance of ingredients. But the chicken parmigiana sandwiches were packed with flavor, as was the Italian cold cut sandwich. My recommendation for this place would be to improve on the quality of the bread they use as it lacks flavor or richness. Put those ingredients on real sourdough bread or focaccia and it would be a very memorable sandwich. To the owner: we visited your lovely home town, as mentioned in your business profile, while we were in Rome a few years ago and had the most unforgettable pizzette rosse while there. Beautiful lake scenery and weather. Interesting coincidence : )
