A word from Urban Eatery

Urban Eatery offers a warm & comfortable dining experience overlooking the beautiful Lake Calhoun. Urban Eatery's menu is approachable with ingredients that are " Fresh & Local". We've taken traditional favorites & added a twist, like Smoked Duck Nachos, Roasted Beet & Fennel Salad. Our Lamb… Burgers are AMAZING.

FREE VALET EVERY NIGHT @ 5 PM.

"I love the edamame here! Best in the city as far as I'm concerned. I do wish their menu was a little bigger. It seems like I get the same thing every time because their menu is kind of small. But if I'm only eating here once a month, it's not so bad. Their kids menu is great, my son loves the cheese pizza. My husband always gets the turkey burger which he says is good and I always get the beet and fennel salad which is really good."

"Went for midweek dinner and was pleasantly surprised to find free valet parking; a nice service at this busy Lake Calhoun location. Enjoyed refreshing glass of white sangria, followed by a wonderfully tasty and generous Caesar Salad and Beet with Fennel Salad. Ordered the chili cheese dog in pretzel bun off the happy hour menu which was remarkably delicious, accompanied by very good crisp fries. Ended the evening with coffee and a piece of outstanding pumpkin cheesecake atop a phyllo dough base. Was delightfully impressed with all our selections. Will definitely return soon."

"Service needs a lot of work. There was absolutely no flow to our visit. We got our appetizer and salads at the same time, then before we were done with those..... here comes our entree. We felt sooo rushed. Then, our server removed our appetizer plate, which we were not finished with. We felt like we were not important. Just move-em-in-move-em-out. Decor was very boring-way to rustic,barn-like. Not impressed."
