“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!“

“My friend and I had visited Boltiful Kitchen for lunch. I had Vegan Miso Tofu Bowl. As someone who loves veggies and is plant based, this is hands-down an amazing bowl to order. The miso glazed tofu, the veggies and sweet potatoes noodles are delicious 😋🤤. Another highlight is that the bowl speaks for itself with tofu and doesn't try to mimic any mock meat options which is a win.
The staff are also very polite and our overall experience was amazing. I am coming back again with more friends!! I just wish Boltiful would expand to more places“

“Had a really enjoyable experience here! The food was delicious and had great flavor, and everything tasted well worth the price. The atmosphere was another big plus, with a vibrant, modern feel and plenty of seating options. I also liked the wide selection of beers, which gave us plenty to choose from. The service was excellent and made the visit even better. Overall, it’s a great place with tasty food, good drinks, and a comfortable atmosphere. I’d definitely recommend giving it a try.“

“Great food, friendly atmosphere, clean and prompt service.“

“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!“

“Food is nothing short of amazing. Large menu and especially good for vegetarians and those who are into healthy options and unwilling to sacrifice taste. Really good kids menu. It's crowded and loud on Friday night, so you'll need a little patience if you go then.“

“Great service, food was awesome!! Thank you Jasmine, (our waitress) was Friendly, and helpful.“

“Went for brunch. Love the food.
We got the shrimp and grits, chilaquiles, and truffle fries.
I like how the shrimp and grits has peas and greens to break up the heartiness. It's not too salty.

Chilaquiles portion is quite large! They use ground sausage so it's almost like a sauce.

Truffle fries was ok. I think it could use a bit more salt. And the truffle drizzle can be more generous as not every fry was covered.

We don't drink alcohol so we didn't try the espresso martini, but it looks delicious!“

“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.“

“Miracle on 1st street is the best time of year“

“Had dinner at the Plano location a few nights ago. Our waiter, Patrick, took excellent care of us and was very prompt and attentive during our visit. We will be back soon and will request to be seated at one of his tables.“

“Great service, fresh food. Highly recommended.“

“Had a great experience at Eos & Nyx. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was lively without being too loud, and our server was very attentive. We especially loved the [dish or drink you actually ordered]—it came out beautifully presented and tasted even better. Service was quick even though the restaurant was busy. Definately planning to come back!“

“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!!“

“With my family, we came to the city unexpectedly, this was the first recommendation on Google Maps and it did not disappoint, it was such a good recommendation, the place is very welcoming to everyone, mostly adults but kids are welcome are as a family we had such a wonderful time! I also notice the many TVs, and people cheering to the soccer games, it's a good place to eat and watch live events!“

“Greeted warmly as i entered and met a friendly smile at the register. It was my 1st time at this location, Almaden, and very surprised by the great variety of offerings. I went with the portobello mushroom panini and tomato bisque soup. YUM YUM delicious 😋 Looking forward to coming back with my squad and trying different items. Come check this!“

“this post is simply in regards to the ambience and what I can see from those eating on their back patio and the live music, WOW! it's just an incredible vibe, my friend lives above the restaurant, and after this I'm gonna make it a point to have dinner here on a weekend soon.“

“We enjoyed our lunch with the freshest flavors and ingredients. The Crab Bisque is unmatched. Ginger Sesame salad with your choice of added protein was delicious. The Arnold Palmer was refreshing. Basically, my go to choice for lunch while enjoying some retail therapy.“

“good food and good drinks. tvs everywhere ! great place to hang out !“

“Everyone is friendly, Scotty & Nicholai (Sp.), great drinks!“

“Had a good time here. Hadn't heard of it before but glad we came. They made the most of the space for sure. Pretty neat themes of mini golf inside, that relate to the bay area in general. The music was the right volume and the atmosphere overall was welcoming and enjoyable. Nice bar area and offer some good cocktails as well. I'd go back for sure.“

“Such great food and wonderful views.“

“Had great experience at Mosaic Restaurant in downtown San Jose. First thing that stood out was the atmosphere. Ultra-lounge has many comfortable leather sofas that make it easy to relax. Huge bar looks amazing with its great selection of cocktails, wine and spirits.
Food was just as good as the setting. Everything came out beautifully presented and full of flavor. You can tell they really care about the quality of what they serve. Staff was friendly, attentive and made us feel welcome without being overbearing.
Whether you're meeting friends for drinks, planning a date night, or just looking for a nice place to enjoy dinner, Mosaic is definitely worth checking out. Great food, excellent service and a beautiful space all come together. Highly recommend and will definitely come back.“

“Our first time trying this neighborhood restaurant, and we weren't disappointed. We had perfectly-prepared medium rare filets. My test of a “French” menu is the French onion soup. Their's was excellent, not the salty imitations we are used to on cruise ships. Service was excellent, and the ambience was casual and quiet. We are looking forward to returning to explore the menu further (lobster risotto!) and to get more adventurous in ordering.“

“Had a really enjoyable meal here! The ribs were absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection, easily one of my favorite parts of the visit. The menu has a good selection of dishes, so there are plenty of choices to explore. Service was excellent from start to finish, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Everything we ordered tasted great, and the whole experience was very pleasant. I’d definitely recommend giving this place a try, especially if you’re a fan of ribs!“

“Tony and his team are simply the best. Regardless of the event size or type, Tony Caters is the absolute best choice. Their presentation is wonderful all around, from the food itself to the stunning displays and professional staff. They ensure guests truly remember how wonderful the occasion was because the food deeply connects and fulfills everyone's palate. It is the kind of dining experience that keeps people talking for days to come—highly recommended!“

“un lugar genial y mágico para vivir los buenos momentos.“

“i met a fine gentleman named Eduardo. He gave out a free order for me“
