Urban Eatery offers a comfortable dining experience overlooking the beautiful Lake Bde Maka Ska. We are located at the street level of The Beach Club building. We offer FREE RAMP PARKING at the Beach Club ramp located on Thomas Ave. We are open to the public and welcome all. Urban Eatery's menu is approachable with ingredients that are Fresh and Local. Our Lamb Burgers, shrimp tacos, and wings are AMAZING. Our house smoked RIBS & PORK CHOPS are some of the best in town. Our chef is obsessed with Mushrooms, so needless to say our Mushroom wild rice soup and Mushroom flatbread along with our Mushroom Omelette are outstanding. We are open for dinner service Wed - Sun and weekend Brunch Sat - Sun. We look forward to serving you soon.

    I had a traditional breakfast with salad in place of potatoes; my partner had the chanterelle omelet . The food was delicious, nicely presented by a thoughtful server who was on point and friendly. The coffee is also good! Our friends also loved their meals— the Mexican hash was a big hit.

    This was our first time to the Urban Eatery. Everything was wonderful. Our server could not have been any better, I actually wish I remember her name because she was so remarkable. I thought it was good, but not excellent. I was not a huge fan of the pomegranate brussels sprouts, but everything else was good. We will be back!

    Great service for Easter Brunch. Great choices for everybody, 3 course Holiday menu for a very fair price. The beet salad was popular at our table as was the grain bowl. Order the Bloody Mary spicy/ house made. I arrived early with my 90 year old Mother. Easy drop off out front, the staff went above and beyond seeing to her comfort and care. Our server treated her like royalty and even « danced » with her as she reminisced of earlier times in the Ballroom upstairs at the Beach Club. Bravo! A lovely goodbye too, thank you. We chose Urban Eatery for the beautiful view of the lake, healthier menu and easy parking. We will be back!
