“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I absolutely love Urban Plates! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The menu offers a fantastic variety of fresh, seasonal ingredients, and every dish I’ve tried has been bursting with flavor. What really sets Urban Plates apart is their commitment to quality. The salads are vibrant and crisp, the proteins are cooked to perfection, and I can always count on their delicious, house-made sauces to elevate each meal. The option to customize my plate allows me to explore new flavors while sticking to my dietary preferences. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, always ready to recommend their favorites. Plus, the commitment to sustainability and using local ingredients makes me feel good about my choices. Whether I’m dining in or grabbing a meal to go, Urban Plates never disappoints. It’s truly one of my favorite spots to enjoy fresh, wholesome food!”

“Truly, I do not enjoy writing bad reviews but based on what happened tonight it is warranted. My two allergy kids wanted some pizza, it needs to be gluten free and dairy free. We called them we spoke to two different people at the restaurant they said that's totally okay, we will charge you 18, we're going to do the kids pizza for the allergies needed. When we drove all the way to pick it up for dinner ,they said sorry we tried to call you and tell you but we're going to charge you $50 because we have to make it large. First of all I checked my phone no one called us. They called someone else. Which really shows how unorganized the restaurant is. And second of all they had absolutely no remorse. Espically the manager. In the end I refuse to pay for something that I was lied to. And I feel like they should have still honored the price due to what they told us. It's not my fault that nobody knows what to do there. And it's affecting the customers. I hope the owner and others reads this and teaches his staff to not punish the customer for their own negligence. It just makes me think what else do they do? this is the los gatos location.”

“Food was excellent! Flat iron steak was done med rare as ordered. Chicken with cranberry sauce and brussels sprouts was perfect. The delicious apple/caramel bread pudding definitely enough to share. The atmosphere is an older converted garage but it is well worth going for the food! Close to TechCU arena, we will be back. Go Barracuda!”

“Okay Google helped me find this one, as I was searching what was open before a Sharks day game. I'll be honest I was a little skeptical on all the good reviews for such a small place... But boy they were right. We all loved it, including the kiddo. Best chilaquiles I've had, best crab cake Benedict, amazing waffle with tons of fruit... Now I want to try more of the other items... We'll definitely be back!”

“I have been here many times when it first opened, so I have not been in a while. We sat outside on a nice evening. There only seemed to be two people working the front, probably because we went super early and they were not busy. The busser and bartender were both very friendly and helpful. We ordered the French 75, one coniac and one gin. They were both delicious. We had the tomato burrata salad which was delicious. I ordered the bread because they used to do this acme baguette with butter that was so delicious. They had a focaccia which I probably wouldn’t order again. It was a bit dry and flavorless. We also had this yummy lavender drink with cream frothed at the top and it was divine! Madison was our waitress and the bartender making all the drinks! She not only makes the drinks, she does the recipes! We were really impressed with her service and care when it came to craft cocktails. For the entree we shared the saffron risotto with lobster. It was kind of pricey for what it was. I didn’t taste the saffron and we got like 3 chunks of lobster. I wouldn’t order it again. I will definitely come back because there were so many more yummy sounding dishes that I wanted to try and of course more cocktails I’d love to taste.”

“Excellent food and mixed drinks. Very loud music, and poor accoustics indoors, made it very difficult to hear the person sitting next to me speaking. Feels more like a party venue than an actual restaurant/bar, so while I enjoyed the food very much, I would not go back. I am clearly not the target demographic.”

“I had the Chicken Mix Bowl with the smokey chipotle sauce and it was AMAZING. I am allergic to dairy, gluten, and soy so being able to not worry about that with my meal was so nice. I also have ARFID (avoidant restrictive food intake disorder) and have a really hard with certain textures, usually chicken is really hard for me to eat but I had no issues with this chicken!! The texture was consistent all the way through, pulled apart really easily, and was just overall amazing. The portions are really good and the food is very flavorful. I'm really happy with my meal. Thank you guys for the amazing food. I highly recommend this place!!”

The manager was especially kind and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. Definitely a hidden gem that we’d be happy to visit again.”

25 Urban Putt San Jose

4.0 Good 151 Reviews

201 South Second Street Ste 150, San Jose

“Urban Putt San Jose is a fun and different place if you want more than just dinner or drinks. The main attraction is the 18-hole indoor mini-golf course, with creative San Jose-themed designs and playful obstacles. It feels more like an entertainment venue than a traditional mini-golf course and is great for a date night, friends, family, or a group outing. The food is better than you might expect from an activity place, with items like calamari, pretzel sticks, wings, burgers, fish and chips, and several pizzas. The bar also has local beers, wine, mocktails, and creative cocktails, and you can bring your drink with you while you play. The downtown San Jose location is convenient, although parking can be a little difficult during busy times. Mini golf is reasonably priced, and the atmosphere becomes more adult-oriented later in the evening. Urban Putt is a great choice for food, drinks, and entertainment all in one place. It is not fine dining, but it is fun, lively, and definitely worth trying.”
