Urbane Cafe Burbank Reviews
I am giving a review in the Burbank location by Magnolia. Urbane Café is one of my favorite spots! The Santa Maria sandwich is amazing—so flavorful and perfectly made. The salads are always fresh, and the bread tastes freshly baked every time. Great food, great quality, and friendly service! I am going to to try the BBQ tri tip for the first time. So I will post a new review soon!
The seasonal harissa chicken sandwich here is dangerously good. The foccacia bread on the sandwhich had that just-baked aroma, and when I bit in, I got layers: smoky chicken, bright pickled onion, and a tziki spread that tied it all together. The sandwich was big enough to be filling but still light enough that I didn’t feel sluggish afterward. It's overall a great lunch spot. Right when you walk in there’s this light, herbal smell in the air that immediately makes you hungry and there’s always fresh cookies ready up front. The medium sized dining room still feels open and inviting with floor to ceiling windows. Around me, people were chatting, laughing, and the staff are fun, talkative, with a sharp attention to detail too. Andrew, my cashier and foodrunner, brought my plate over with a warm “buen provecho” calling back to my comment about needing to practice more spanish when I was ordering. A manager passed by once more near the end of my meal to offer to-go boxes, which might seem small, but it’s those moments that make me a repeat customer.
SUPER impressed! I don't say that often. Reasonable prices with superb flavors which is rare to find nowadays. Ample space in the parking lot, and the option to sit outdoors. Mobile order with app is awesome and there is a dedicated area for pick ups. Roomy space where you feel comfortable and the restroom area is private all the way in the back. Super clean (here at 8:15pm) Drink options are good and not your typical coke and such. Will definitely come back and also start visiting the Pasadena location
Super friendly staff and a great meal. They were handing out free cookies which were just amazing and a nice touch to our dine in experience. They were so good we bought some to take home as well. The side salad with fresh fruit was a nice surprise to the sandwiches we got. Some firemen were in line ahead of us and got their meal for free which was so nice of the business. Very community and family oriented establishment in a prime Burbank location. Will be a regular spot for me!
I love the healthy and delicious food options. So yummy and simple. Also, I can eat alone without feeling strange. It’s a nice spot all around.
I have a terrific time at Urbane Café. The grand opening was complete success. Look at all the crew and staff at the event. Everyone was very nice, welcoming and told me all about the food. They have put together a well thought out menu that is fantastic. Homemade bread for all sandwiches. Wow, it was delicious. The chicken sandwich was juicy and the salad was fresh. They have 3 lemonades. Traditional, Mango and Watermelon. I can say that the watermelon lemonade was the best tasting lemonade that I have ever had. They have hot sauces available with all the condiments. The craft soda is a nice touch. They have my favorite: Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches on homemade bread. The Burbank Fire Dept was there to taste the food. I guarantee that they loved it. The have a great kid’s menu and the cookies!!! Well, look at my photos. Urbane Café has plenty of parking and the food is excellent. I will be back.

Love this place! Great food and great service. Highly reccomend to those w gluten allergies/celiac disease like I do. They are knowledgeable and take precautions to avoid cross contamination and have the best gluten free bread I've ever had!
I come back here for Andrew. He is the best face of urbane in Burbank. Truly any meal that starts with his smile can go no wrong. I have a gluten allergy and he always goes above and beyond to make sure I’m taken care of.
I have accidentally stumbled upon this awesome place. Let first say this, the staff is fantastic, very welcoming, friendly, outgoing, fun, and very knowledgeable about their menu. The place is clean, neat, and the ambiance is fantastic. The food is amazing. I had their new Sweet Chili Crunch Chicken Sandwich. It was delicious beyond words. I definitely recommend this place. Overall 10/10. Definitely coming back here.
I love this Urbane. Wonderful and considerate staff, great sandwiches and salad with fresh house made bread kept at reasonable price. I also appreciate their rewards system. We get to have free chocolate chip cookies warmed up soft and gooey just how we like it.
My lunch today at Urbane Cafe was honestly the highlight of my week. The dining room has a friendly buzz to it, busy but not chaotic. Friendly staff for sure. Andrew, who was running food, seemed to have a sixth sense for who needed what; They dropped off my salad in record time even though I forgot my table number. The Crunchy Peanut Salad itself was a masterclass in balance: crisp greens, tangy dressing, a hint of heat, and a crunch from the toppings that made every bite interesting. Then came the cookie (which deserves its own paragraph tbh) it was warm, fragrant, and had that satisfying “pull apart” texture. Andrew even joked that I’d probably need a second one, and honestly, they weren’t wrong. If every restaurant had this kind of atmosphere and service, I’d never cook at home again.
My family and I absolutely love it here. My husband and I go EVERY Friday night for a “date night” dinner. I know it’s corny but it feels like family. ANDREW and the rest of the crew are so friendly and the food is super fresh and yummy. My favorite dish is the Santa Maria BBQ Chicken Salad and then I top it off with a freshly baked cookie if I’ve been good ;) Highly recommend visiting. (Burbank location)
Urbane in Burbank is fantastic. The food is fresh, healthy, and delicious (try the salmon bowl). The staff is outstanding. Kind, helpful, and friendly. If you go, tell Taryn, John, Pam, Leela, Bree, Erika, and the entire staff I said hello! (Apologies to Urbane pals I missed! Everyone is wonderful there!) Highly recommend!
Went to urban, the cookies are amazing! Andrew helped us fill out the survey to request the double chocolate cookie back
Fresh and delicious sandwiches. I love the grilled cheese with portobello mushrooms and the tomato bisque soup. Taryn, manager, when we were there was attentive and professional. Thank you. Totally recommend the Urban Cafe on Verdugo in Burbank.

Ordering was good. Cashier was very nice. Took a bit longer than I would have thought for the food but not long enough to check on things. I loved my sandwich but my wife was unimpressed by the salmon salad.

I had a great experience at the Burbank Urbane Cafe thanks to Matthew! He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect—from warmly greeting us when we walked in to checking in with a genuine smile throughout our visit. It’s rare to find someone who brings that kind of energy and care to their work, and it absolutely made our day. The food was delicious as always, but the outstanding service from Matthew truly stood out and made us want to return. Thank you MATT!! We will be back ✌️
Nice, fresh made food while you wait. The best part is they make their own bread fresh all day, every day. We stopped in for lunch and enjoyed a salad and sandwich on the patio in lovely southern California weather.
Cute little chain-type spot that offers lots of fresh, clean, healthy food. Has soup and salad that tasted like we made it at home. No weird fillers or packaged flavours. Was just what we needed after a sudden airline cancellation and chilly weather. Clean spot with big enough tables to work or bring a little game (like we did). Sweet employees. Great amount of parking in its own lot.

My neighborhood Urbane Cafe is the Studio City location, which I can't say enough great things about across the board. I found myself in Burbank, so I pulled into this Urbane Cafe location. Same great and fresh food offerings, but the restaurant itself needed quite a bit of TLC, unfortunately. Maybe I caught things at a bad time?, but the cleanliness of the floors and tables needed attention pretty badly. Staffing seemed ample, so I was perplexed why so much was not up to par for what I usually see in Studio City. If anyone in management is interested in more details, I am happy to provide. I love the food offerings at Urbane Cafe. Big fan! The restaurant was really off today.

Overall food is good. Some is great. Portion size leaves a lot to be desired. Got the BBQ tri tip sandwich. The chipotle aioli is amazing but does not make up for the amount of flavor the tri-tip. I should have went to handy market for their tri-tip. The salad is good but again small portion. The tomato bisque is great, very rich in flavor. The double chocolate cookie was good. Would have been great if it was fresher, the cookie was drying out. I like trying a new place at least once a month. Now I know I don't plan to come back to spend my hard earned money here again.

I ordered a salmon bowl from this restaurant, and when it arrived, I was absolutely horrified to find live flies crawling around inside the food. This is completely unacceptable and raises serious concerns about the restaurant’s hygiene and food safety standards. I immediately lost my appetite and couldn’t eat anything. I reached out to the restaurant, but the response was disappointing — there was no real accountability or sense of urgency. I strongly urge others to think twice before ordering from here until they address their cleanliness issues. This was one of the most unpleasant food experiences I’ve ever had.
