Food: Infuses creativity, lacks savor

Urban Grill and Wine offers a unique palette of eclectic selections showcasing watching culinary creativity. However, the tastebuds are often left in the lurch, with food described as underwhelming. Complementing the freshness of ingredients, the portions, although small, find favor among those with dietary preferences. Pricing appears fair for an upscale dining experience, albeit, portion sizes are a hit and miss, and the menu often teeters on the fringe of being repetitive.

  • Very Creative

    Unique menu with imaginative, eclectic selections impresses numerous customers.

  • Okay Taste

    Some dishes impressed while others were deemed just okay or mediocre.

Vibe: Radiates cheerful ambient hum

The ambiance at Urban Grill and Wine is a perfect canvas for a romantic rendezvous, blending a cozy vibe with a touch of modern decor. Live music, willowy streams of jazz in the background, add a spirited pulse to the dining experience. Drinks are a visual and taste-bud delight; however, the view is singed due to the unremarkable parking lot landscape. Yet, in its vibrant persistency, the place hums with a lively crowd.

  • Great Drinks

    Extensive, diverse selections, impressive list, very good pricing, high quality.

  • No Views

    Overlooks a parking lot, view unremarkable with only parked cars.

Perks: Handles crowd, parking woes persist

Despite the parking spaces being microcosms, the service at Urban Grill and Wine is laudably quick, attentive, and friendly, softening the inconvenience. They also extend a comforting open-paw policy for dogs and are more than willing to whip up vegan-friendly meals. However, the patio’s narrow confines and position facing the parking lot compromises the outdoor dining enjoyment. Further, large groups may find it difficult to accommodate themselves comfortably.

  • Great Service

    Staff exceptionally attentive, providing quick, knowledgeable, and friendly service.

  • Okay To Reserve

    Recommend reservations for small space, but service fast and accommodating.

  • Bad For Groups

    Cannot really accommodate large groups; places tables together anyway.
