Urban Plates - Pasadena

I ordered the Grilled Steak and French Fries and it was delicious. The steak was served cold, which was unexpected, but it ended up being delicious when added to the salad. The portion size was generous and I was able to enjoy some with every bite. The fries were also tasty, salty, and flavorful. Despite being 40 minutes away, they were still crispy, perhaps due to the packaging.

I have always been a fan of Urban Plates when dining in, but the takeout order I received today was quite underwhelming. The lettuce was wilted and droopy, the avocado was slightly bruised, and the portion size was smaller than usual. This has never been an issue for me when dining in, so I will likely avoid ordering delivery from here in the future.

The restaurant was better than fast food chains. The burger was fresh, but had a burnt char flavor that was too strong. The fries were not crispy, possibly because of delivery, but they were thick and tasty. I might not order this for delivery again, but I would order it for dining in. The food was well packaged.

Urban Plate always does a great job, but tonight the ceaser salad was a little off- The dressing or the cheese seemed spoiled.

The grass-fed beef is phenomenal! Every time we order from urban plates, it is a winner. Love the beet salad with goat cheese, too!
