Urban & Co. has become my regular weekday lunch. Consistent quality, generous portions, and the staff has started to recognize me. I usually grab the Mediterranean Bowl but I've worked through most of the menu and haven't had a miss yet.
Great salads & bowls option for the area. The Cobb Salad was the highlight, big portion and well-priced. Seating is limited so if you come at peak hours plan on takeout. I'll be back.
I work nearby and stop in at least twice a week. The Buffalo Chicken Salad hits every time. Service is quick, the space is clean, and they take dietary requests seriously which I appreciate. Easy five stars from me.
Came here on a whim during my lunch break and I'm hooked. The Mediterranean Bowl was easily the best version I've had this year. Friendly staff, fast service, and they actually got my order right the first time. Will be back next week.
Mixed feelings. The Cobb Salad was excellent and the cashier was friendly, but my side came out cold and they were out of two of the things I wanted to order. Probably worth another try, but not the experience I was hoping for.
