Urban Roast

It was calm. Food was overpriced for how, eh, it tasted. The ambiance was amazing, but cramped. And for it to be my birthday and have no special service it was disappointing I’ve had way better food and service for a way better price!

We had such a great experience at Urban Roast at The Wharf. It was busy when we arrived, so I wasn’t expecting overly attentive service but Kneesh completely exceeded expectations. Good service can be hard to come by when a restaurant is packed, but she stayed calm, professional, and incredibly attentive the entire time. She checked in at the perfect moments without ever hovering, and she made us feel genuinely taken care of. She has such great energy. What really stood out was her knowledge of the menu. Her recommendations were thoughtful and spot-on, she asked the right questions and guided us toward options that matched exactly what we were in the mood for. It elevated the whole experience. The décor and ambiance are beautiful. Outstanding service, especially in a busy environment. We were truly impressed.

Urban Roast was a great experience overall. The short rib was incredibly delicious (very tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly). It was easily the best part of the meal. The atmosphere is nice and comfortable, and the service was friendly. I’d definitely come back, especially for the short rib.

It was an incredible experience from start to finish. I had the salmon perfectly cooked, full of flavor. I also tried one of their seasonal drinks, which was absolutely amazing. The service was exceptional. I had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food, great drinks, and outstanding hospitality.

Urban Roast just put up their Christmas decor and it is absolutely gorgeous, the whole place feels magical and so cozy. The attention to detail in the decorations alone makes it worth the visit. We started with the mozzarella sticks and the dynamite shrimp and both were so good, super flavorful with a beautiful presentation. I ordered the brown sugar espresso martini and it was perfect best espresso martini out there. For my entrée, I had the short rib and it was honestly fantastic — tender, flavorful, and delicious. The ambiance, the service, the food, everything came together for a great experience. I’m definitely coming back tomorrow, especially for brunch!
