   Ordered a medium-rare bison ribeye. It was rare/very-rare. Same with everyone else in our party. Should expect a restaurant to be able to cook a $87 steak correctly. Sides and apps were good. Waiter didn’t ask how we wanted checks which required a new print out. Vibe was very nice. Downtown area is cool.

   Our family of 4 has dined at Urban Farmer before and really enjoyed it so I chose it to host our extended family dinner here after my daughter's graduation. This time, our experience was mixed. The positives: the staff were extremely accommodating with our ever changing number of guests and they sat us in a special back room that allowed us to have our own space and easy conversation. Our servers were excellent and attentive. People raved about the salads, bread, sides and the salmon. The negatives: several of the dishes just were not that good, especially for the very high price. My teeny-tiny $48 filet was overdone, the chicken had a weird spice the elderly did not enjoy, my father's very expensive sea bass was smaller than a deck of cards, and my mussels were in a sauce that just didn't taste right. My advice to Urban Farmer is go back to former menus, remove the funky spices and sauces. Keep dishes simple - let the local, farm-to-table food speak for itself. Most importantly, ensure the amount of food is commensurate with the price.

   Not too crowded, good service, good food. Prices are a little high.

   Exceeded expectations in most every way. Service was attentive with great recommendations, though not overboard. Portions were somewhat smaller, but progressed through courses in a way that left you satisfied. Absolutely have to try the pork belly (imagine a cube of bacon that has a slight after taste of wood smoke). They have very reasonable prices non-alcohol cocktails and a great wine selection. Restaurant is laid out in a unique fashion with areas for couples , large parties , etc. Even the subterranean bathroom with the classy tile and period sink is fun. Overall you will spend a fair amount (think, special occasion), but it is worth it. We went on our anniversary and they had a personalized card with well wishes from the staff on it, a gift of cornbread recipe and ingredients in a bell jar (better than I am making it sound). At one point the waiter showed up with fresh cornbread that was warm from the oven , just because it was good and he wanted us to try it. If you’re looking for a really special experience, this is a safe bet. We loved it.

   The Urban farmer Mother’s Day brunch did not disappoint. The food was excellent and the non alcoholic drinks were good. My wife loved the food and it was very quiet. If you do not have reservations you are not getting in until after brunch is over. Which is good because it was definitely not overcrowded. So if you want to go on Mother’s Day you have to book early. Well before Mother’s Day. I booked at least month out and got mid morning. So book in March or end of February or your Mother’s Day prolly going to be at McDonald’s.

   While the service was good and the restaurant boasted a nice location and atmosphere with appealing decor, the food itself was a significant letdown, leading to a 3-star rating. Our entrees arrived lukewarm and rapidly cooled. Beyond the temperature, the dishes lacked flavor and tasted bland. Considering the price, we anticipated a much higher quality meal. It was at least 10 minutes before a staff member checked on us after our initial delivery, at which point we mentioned the issue with the food's temperature. The restaurant did offer to rectify the situation and kindly comped our drinks. For reference, I ordered the scallops, and my wife had the salmon.

   Hi John, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. While we're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the service, ambiance, and décor, we're truly sorry the food didn’t meet your expectations. Entrees arriving lukewarm and lacking in flavor is not the standard we strive to uphold, especially given the pricing and care we aim to put into every dish. We also regret that it took longer than it should have for a follow-up after your food was served. We’re glad our team was able to offer a gesture of goodwill, but we understand that doesn't fully make up for a disappointing meal. Your feedback will be shared with our culinary and service teams so we can continue to improve. Thank you again for your honesty. We hope to have the opportunity to provide a better experience in the future.

   Every part of this evening was beyond what we expected. From the hostess to the server and the management team, this place rocks. The cocktails were on point and did not skimp. The meals (steak flight, striped bass and Brussels sprouts) were melt in your mouth delicious and the dessert (butterscotch sundae with brown butter blondie - yea you heard that right) iced it all. Low key dinner or celebration this place will fit the bill. Thanks for a great night!

    The coordination blew my mind. It was also great to how nice they revamped the Old McCormicks.
