I have been coming to Urbane for years and everything is always amazing! I have also used them for many catering events and a few times we had slight issues with our order and Urbane went above and beyond to make it right. I highly recommend and I'm a customer for life . Ps- obsessed with the bread! read more

I have been here numerous times, but usually I order online and pick up here. This time I came with my niece because she wasn't sure what she wanted to eat. Realized they have pizza for kids and ended up getting that. William helped us and he was absolutely amazing with his service and manners. I always love their food so the combination of a wonderful food and amazing service always stand out. I always get their Baja bowl, which is amazing but their sandwiches that I have tried before also amazing like the chimichurri steak sandwich. Their chicken sandwich is good. Their salads are also amazing this place never disappoints, but shout out to William for the absolute amazing service. the food is phenomenal and will definitely continue to return this wonderful place. read more

My go-to for lunch and dinners. I love the tofu sandwich. Great service and yummy food. Love that they DoorDash

I've been coming to this location since it opened and have always been very happy with their options and the value and quality of the food. The last couple times I've been I have been super disappointed, everything seems to have been thrown together with little care. I ordered on their website today and picked up a salad and got home and couldn't believe my eyes at what I saw. It looks like a two year-old put it together. I love Urbane however, I think I'll try a different location from now on. read more

Great place to get food., the manager Fernando is always welcoming and friendly each time I go eat there.

We've always enjoyed the sandwiches. But the side salad has lost its charm over the years. Tonight we substituted fruit on a couple sandwiches, and I also ordered three separate side orders of fruit. They no longer look ANYTHING like the picture on the site. I think they give you what they call "kiddie fruit" even when you order them standalone. There is well less than half the fruit they picture, but I'm including a photo of the absolute worst of them. read more

Best place for a healthy reset from all the heavy holiday foods we've been eating. I forgot the name but I had a bowl with white fish, kale, cabbage, brown rice or quinoa (or both?) and other veggies. My body was craving something clean and this hit the spot. Bonus for parents with toddlers- they keep a clean restroom and changing table! read more

Urban Café is amazing! The Santa Maria BBQ chicken sandwich was smoky and flavorful, and the salmon bowl was fresh and delicious. Great food! read more

I love love looooovvvveee Urbane Cafe. My Cilantro Chicken Salad is always on point! I also really love how fresh everything in. Now my favorite location is the Downtown one. They're always so friendly and welcoming . I feel this location isn't as welcoming unfortunately. I wasn't greeted and checked in on as in the other Urbanes I have been to. This location had a reno not long ago. It has a modern clean look . Which I love! Seating indoors and outside. Another thing I didn't love was that they pre prep the plates with salad on the side and they're just sitting there in the open. I know it's a means to provide speedy service but I enjoy my greens cold. Will forever be in Urbane Cafe fan. I go often but I do have my favorite location in Downtown Ventura. read more

This spot is always delicious. Great spot for a delicious sandwich. Recommend this place 10 out of 10.

Urbane has the best sandwiches of all time. Seriously. I have lived in many big cities: San Francisco, Austin, Denver and Urbane Cafe is still my favorite sandwich of all time. I am happiest when I have the SoCal sandwich and chipotle ranch to dip it in. I will be an urbane customer until I die read more

This place has amazing salads and sandwiches. I don't think they make anything bad. Also, it's nice that the prices are affordable considering what you are getting. They are fast and friendly. I use the app to order online and pick up. It's easy and efficient. I would highly recommend trying this place! Get anything! read more

I occasionally come to grab a quick lunch and the food and service is 10/10. The manager Fernando Parra is always friendly and helping on the floor. This restaurant doesn't ever disappoint, they are on top of their business. read more

I was not happy with the ahi salad delivered when I saw the Japanese sauce was half full! It was definitely NOT enough! It's almost like they are forcing you to add more sauce for $.65 but u don't need it if they would just provide a full filled sauce! Not half-full! Just bringing yo their attention for better food! Thank you! read more

Urbane Cafe's customer service and food is consistently very good. We've enjoyed many sandwiches and bowls over the years of ordering. The menu doesn't disappoint. It's still considered a great food value, when compared with other local choices. Very reasonable. Their chocolate chip cookies are world class! Do not forget to order some. Then order more. Just to be safe:) read more

Urbane is the best! The food is very tasty - my favorites are the Santa Maria bbq chicken sandwich and the salmon bowl. The portions are a good size and fair price. The restaurant is usually pretty clean and the service is decent. The food is prepared within a reasonable amount of time. Would recommend!! read more

I'm a classically trained chef and what I've seen. When I go in there and pick up my food is a well oiled machine. The manager james seems to run that place with compassion and carrying not by anger and violence, which i've seen a lot of restaurants run like that. Overall out of 5 stars, I'd give it a one0 not just that one. All the ones in ventura are good.I haven't eaten it any of the other ones. But i'm sure they're good too read more

Rarely do I go inside to eat here, because their service is terrible. The people typically working the cash register seem miserable, and God forbid you ask if they have more chocolate chip cookies. The female cashier was very rude when I asked that question and she replied very sarcastically. Other than that, their sandwiches are pretty good, the bread really sells them. The salads are also pretty good! The chocolate chip cookies are the best thing they have, and they're so delicious, but they tend to run out frequently. Overall decent place to eat, it's an easy and safe option when you're looking for something other than fried fast food. read more

i go to this location regularly and have had very little problems but today i had a wad of paper in my garlic steak bowl ewie! i thought maybe it was a part of the paper bowl, but the bowl isnt damaged so i dont know where the paper came from read more

The food was so good , I always get the southwest and it never disappoints . James and William are always so nice to me when I come in and always provide great service:) read more

Always fresh! Love the bbq chicken salad! Really busy so definitely order ahead for pick up. Really nice employees who help you find your order amongst many. The bread is freshly made and usually nice and warm :) read more

I've been a customer since they opened this location over 20 years ago (the 1st one I think). It has always been a favorite, but the last few times (over the last few months) the quality just isn't the same. Portions seem smaller, and assembly is sloppy. If it is a cost issue, I would rather pay a bit more so the items stay consistent. I've also seen several reviews here dated from the last year that recount a similar experience, so it probably won't improve. read more

William was at the front register when my friends and I came in and he had a great energy about him. He delivered all of our food out to our table and then proceeded to check in on us despite it not being traditional dining experience. I was able to have a great conversation with him too. William da best. Food was good I got the bahn mi tofu sandwich read more

Food is always good service is efficient and it's a nice place to eat out for lunch I like the salads and the bowls.

About a year ago I was standing in line here with my wife and I got into trouble because I don't know when to keep my damn mouth shut. I should be used to it, it happens all the time. I made what I thought was a fairly innocuous statement based on my observations during previous visits. I said, this is a woman's restaurant. My wife looked at me sideways and said what does that mean? She's a much bigger fan of Urbane Cafe than I am, and immediately I knew was stepping on her toes with my comment. I said look around, the place is busy, all the tables are taken, and there's only me and one other guy in the whole place. She said, so? I probably should have paid attention to the big flashing signs saying Trouble Ahead and looked for a conversational offramp, but I foolishly kept talking. It's this way every time, I explained. You rarely see men in here. And when you do, they're nearly always with a woman. It's super rare to see two or more men eating together here like at a normal restaurant. Soon as I said that last part I could tell by the expression on my wife's face I had gone way too far. Normal restaurant? So this isn't a normal restaurant!? You don't like this place? You want to go somewhere else? No, it's cool, I like this place, I truthfully replied. I'm just pointing out that it's a very woman friendly place. I was scrambling desperately to do Damage Control. I think it's great, I continued, for women to have a place where they can get salads and healthy sandwiches. I guess that sounded a little condescending or patronizing, or both, I don't know. But I knew it was time to shut up about it when she rolled her eyes. So I shut up. Lol. That was a year or more ago. Today I placed an online order for pick up. I love ordering ahead online and having the order ready when I get there. They were super busy, with a line almost out the front door, but because I had prepaid online I was able to walk right in, find my order and be on my way. I've found that my order is almost always ready before the time promised here. Usually by 5-10 minutes. That's good to know if you want to get ahold of your food while it's still warm. When I got home my wife asked me, was it all women inside? It's been a year since I made those ill-advised comments but she hasn't forgotten. Women never forget anything, especially ill-advised comments. I pretended I had no idea why she was asking and said, huh? All women? I just shrugged and said don't know, I didn't notice. But it was in fact almost entirely women inside. Lol. Just to be clear, I love the sandwiches here. Today I had a UC Banh Mi and it was freaking great! I usually alternate between that sandwich and the Turkey Cranberry Brie. Both are Fire. I've had their Ahi Tuna salad a few times too, and I loved it every time. When I eat here I feel like I'm eating healthy, but not like I'm eating health food, if you know what I mean. I think Urbane Cafe is kind of unique that way. I see it as a compliment to say it's a woman's restaurant. Based on my observations, it seems clear to me that most women are far more careful about what they eat than men. Not all women, of course. Plenty of women like unhealthy food too. But if you ask a man where to go for a healthy meal, you're likely to get a blank stare as a response. If you ask a woman, she'll likely say, Urbane Cafe. Mikey C says: I think I'll just quit talking right here. read more

If you go to Urbane Cafe, honestly skip the sandwiches. They are just okay. You need to get the Salmon Bowl. This is the perfect combination of sweet potatoes, brown rice, Salmon, and Kale. I would get this bowl anytime I come to Urbane Cafe. The sandwiches are mediocre and the reason why I knocked off a star. read more

Urbane Cafe - Sandwiches Near Me - Ventura, California

Don't you hate when you pay $15 for a sandwich and when you pick up the bag, it's hard to believe it's not an empty container with no sandwich? It should be criminal to charge that much for a sandwich that small. The sandwich was good but never again, not worth it. read more

Always fresh and delicious! James was amazing, offered some warm cookies! Love the fresh lemonades!

I have been at Urbane Café since their first restaurant opened and have been to other locations. The food is consistently great; the staff is professional, friendly and efficient. But the reason for this review is because of a hiccup in my catering order. I now see how this happened. I tried to order online picking the Ventura location. I had to end up calling corporate to place my order, and they were super helpful, honoring the code that wouldn't go thru online. Because I had ordered before with corporate, the order was sent to the Thousand Oaks location where I previously picked up a catering order. Oh, no! When I showed up at the Ventura location, my order wasn't there. The manager Fernando immediately went into solution mode. He understood I was on a tight timeline, no time to go to T.O. and had his staff make a very large order, and then "no charge" based on the issue. I was shocked and, of course, extremely grateful. That kind of service, and the complimentary no charge on top of that is unheard of in this day and age. Thank you, Fernando, Alyssa & Danielle, for making a very stressful situation all turn out just fine. I always say, "It's not the problem that matters; it's how you handle the problem and the solution you come up with." A++++ to the Ventura Urbane Cafe staff! read more

Always super friendly staff and efficient. I always use the app to pick up and it's always ready when it says. If I need something more they always are ready to assist and they don't act like I'm bothering them. Food is always excellent too read more

The food is wonderful, but the staff is even better. The leadership with James and Fernando is top notch. A++ managers!!

Great service! That manager, Jamey, def has it going on! Everything is delicious and quick. read more

Friendly staff! Always has great service. Food is always hot and tasty. It's a great place for lunch or dinner.

Great service from the lovely ladies behind the counter. Fantastic selection of healthy foods including many vegan options. Great variety of fountain drinks including dragonfruit and strawberry juices, lemonade, and unique natural sodas. My Banh Mi sandwich was wonderful served with a side salad and my friend loved her portobello sandwich. Quick fresh and convenient! read more

Urbane Cafe - Baja Enchilada Soup - Sandwiches Near Me - Ventura, California

Went to buy lunch for my client who has down syndrome. The manager who was wearing a black uniform helped us immediately the guy looked at my client in a disgusting manner as if he was appalled by my client. Waited for our order to arrive. The guy brought our food and slammed it our table, i was too stunned to speak as it was out of nowhere. Will never go back here again. I dont know what kind of establishment gives this kind of treatment to their customers. A couple of days ago i went with another client who is a female and the manager was acting nicer as she is beautiful and "acceptable to his eyes" so you either gotta be pretty to get good treatment read more

Food is amazing. Staff is awesome. It's Always super quick to get my food on my lunch break

I ordered 2 sandwiches using Uber Eats and 1 of my sandwiches was missing most of what it should have had. Got the So Cal and it had no lettuce, avocado, sauces and was put together so sloppy I had to reassemble it. Just because it's a to go order doesn't mean it should be thrown together. Very disappointing because we are sick which is why we ordered this way. read more

I'm living with roommates again after my ex-wife found me sleeping in her driveway for over a week untenable. I can't blame her. Her dates were made uncomfortable and I'm sure they had questions about the man living in the driveway that none of us could answer. I had the So Cal chicken sandwich at Urbane Cafe today after moving my air mattress and three scented trash bags full of clean and unlaundered clothing into the meager apartment that my old roommates kindly invited me back into despite their equally bleak life circumstances. The sandwich was delicious. Five stars. read more

My favorite salad place hands down! Their salads are good and fresh. They have multiple ways to order besides going into the cafe. I love their Baja bowl as well. Super tasty and filling! I highly recommend them to everyone! Will return soon read more
