urban eatery

i recently visited minneapolis with some friends. we came upon urbaneaterythrough a recommendation from a local who where they call "uptown". our server was nice, and recommended their hamburger. although i had hoped to enjoy minnesota's "famed juicy lucy", i took the servers recommendation. the hamburger and fries were great. a friend had their hummus, and it was very good. prices appeared reasonable. they offered free parking the night we were there, and that was a big plus. other restaurants should take notice.

minneapolis, you managed to impress bay area visitors.  you're not just "fly over" country after all...

fantasgreat.... urbaneateryhas become one of our go to spots for food in uptown. we live downtown but we often go to uptown for dinner. a friend had introduced us to urbaneaterya while back and it has been a treat. favorites so far are the guacamole for appetizer, local greens salad, tomato avocado pizza, whiskey soy salmon and the walleye entrees, of course the free valet at nights helps too. we usually sit at the bar and visit our favorite bartender brian. two thumbs up ....

great new spot in uptown. i had dinner with two friends at urbaneateryon friday night. holy cow what a great spot. i had the lamb burger, my friends ordered the pizza and the chicken pot pie, and we split the asian pork sliders and the smoked duck nachos for appetizer.
the food was outstanding and our server manny couldn't have been nicer. the ambience was warm and comfy. the free valet was a great touch as well. highly recommend it. we will be back often.

great uptown restaurant. i was walking around lake calhoun with the girlfriend when we saw urbaneateryacross lake street. we decided to stop in and have a drink since we figured it was happy hour. they have a tiered happy hour, meaning there are different menu items for either 3,4,5, or 6 dollars. i love when restaurants do this. the portion sizes were what i expected for the prices. we got the tator tots for 4 dollars and there are a ton. we also got the smoked chicken taco. just the right amount for happy hour food. we ordered some drinks and that was that!

great experience. had dinner at urbaneaterytonight. i have been going there often, it is always great but tonight was exceptional. we sat out side on the patio and enjoyed the great weather. i had the whiskey soy salmon for entree and we split the smoked duck nachos for appetizer. our server alex recommended the urban sundae for desert. we had a great evening. as always the free valet is a nice touch.

good times. good food, good service, good times. we went to urbaneateryfor dinner. it was our first time there so we tried a few different items. we ordered the asian pork sliders and the fresh guacamole. we shared the chicken pot pie, the spicy lamb burger and the shrimp tacos. the food was great, the lamb burger and the asian pork sliders were outstanding. our server autumn was very friendly and helpful. the free valet was a great touch as well. we will be back for sure.

a very happy happy hour. a co-worker and i went to urbaneateryfor happy hour and we were very impressed. we ordered the warm pretzel twists (which were a favorite) and the turkey sliders with guacamole. the guacamole was the freshest food we've ever tasted. what's even better is that their drinks and appetizers are $3-$5. you can't beat that.
