   Understandably enough restaurants have been hit hard and are doing the best they can. The bar was very backed up and my drinks took extra long because of it. I came for the decor and it did not disappoint. The cheese board was fantastic quality as was the limoncello cake. The price was high for what was received but I imagine it’s a blend of the area and the rise of wholesale prices. Happy to have said I was there seeing as they sat me and did not check me in for my reservation causing a “no show” to appear on my name. There seemed to be at least 4 women handling the door and not really checking in with each other about each thing they were doing.

    The drinks were great and so was our waitress. The food was the issue and it couldn’t be rectified. Their policy is if the food isn’t to your liking, they will remake it but they will not take it back or off your check. You cannot substitute it . You are forced to stick with that dish. I ordered the taco trio (steak, shrimp, chicken) and my friend ordered the shrimp lettuce. She took one bite and asked for something different because the baby shrimp were overcooked. They just offered to recook it. The tacos I got were not good at all. The chicken had to be boiled. The steak had no seasoning. It was literally meat on a soft tortilla and the seasoning was non existent. I asked for seasoning and they brought me a marinade of some sort. I will not return here for food. Maybe when they switch chefs .

    The overall experience at Urban Roast is very good. The drinks were really good, I would go back just for drinks. The lasagna was very good but it was more sauce than meat and lasagna! Which was annoying. The ambiance is great and beautiful! Many places to take pictures!

    Overall the ambiance and food was great! We ordered a few things and all were great except the shrimp wrapped lettuce. I imagined the shrimp coming already wrapped in the lettuce and not in a bowl. For something that one has to wrap in lettuce, it probably shouldn’t be as soupy as it was. I just thought it would be more on the drier side. Our server Roberto was amazing but I think he was taking care of too many tables at once which I understand comes with the business but it made it a bit harder for him to come check on us and our needs a little longer than usual. I was very disappointed though that you don’t offer a free dessert for a birthday for the person being celebrated. That was absurd because most restaurants do. What’s the point of asking on the reservation the occasion if you couldn’t honor a request for a birthday. Something as simple as a dessert wouldn’t hurt the business. Overall great place.

    The ambiance of the place was amazing and the cocktails were 100% great however, the food was on the lesser side. The food wasn't amazing or even good to say the least. The Charcuterie boards are amazing but the actual menu items tasted like great value products. First, I got the spicy crab dip and it tasted like buffalo chicken dip. Nothing about it screamed I got the crab. I was definitely impressed by the drinks and ambiance but extremely disappointed at the quality of food.

    This was my first time. I will come back! This was a great place for my fam to meet for brunch while they were visiting. Everything we got was shareable. We had the rise and shine, fruit medley, fresh baked, and pie board. We also had 2 pitchers, 1 basil berry mojito and 1 mango pineapple mojito. We all said how there were other things we wanted to try but we were so full. Between the 5 of us we may have even ordered one board too many but were glad we did. I look forward to trying more of the menu. The ambiance is so cute. Very instagramable! Service was good, not personable but good. That is the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 overall.

    Very cute and great food. Came here for my birthday with friends and I would definitely sit outside next time. The music was techno and turned up so loud that we couldn’t talk because we couldn’t hear each other. The food was really great. At the end there was some confusion as my friends requested a bday dessert for me and was told it was complimentary and it wasn’t. And then at the end when we were splitting the check it wasn’t split evenly at all and they charged me for my own complimentary bday dessert after my friend said to put it on hers. We had the flight mojitos and I will say for $30 they were extremely small but good. Overall we enjoyed the food but with the music so loud that we couldn’t talk and the check not adding up it was hard to enjoy my birthday dinner.

    We enjoyed our visit to Urban Roast. The atmosphere was trendy, kitschy, and lively. They have different themed areas and rooms, some more romantic and some for parties. We were in the large party area. The cocktails were beautiful and delicious but I did not see the area where exciting bartender tricks occurred (as on Instagram). We had appetizers which were good and fairly priced, but nothing to rave over (buffalo chicken dip and a cheese board). I would like to go back and try their tacos and crab dip, which I saw and looked good. The service was great, polite and personal, and I would definitely go back again. The music is very loud so next time I will as for a table closer to the front. The staff were brilliant and did turn the volume down when I asked.

    I ordered prosciutto with burrata cheese — a dish I had a week earlier and it was wonderful and beautiful. This time however, there was no prosciutto on the dish – just some random salami slices. The burrata was also very different – just some chunks scattered around. Also there was a lot of salad greens on the plate. There were no explanations for it being so different and no words about there being no slices of prosciutto. After the wonderful dish a week before, i strongly recommended Urban Roast to a goon number of people who live in the Downtown DC area. I hope the don’t have a bad experience.

    Booked this place for our nite out in DC while on vacation / son’s graduation. Food on the menu is random…. no theme. Tacos, lasagna, crab legs… huh? Food was ok nothing special. Our server was great. Polite and easy going . We ordered the samoas s’mores .. it was 2 marshmallows, 4 crackers, and 2 pieces of chocolate drizzled with coconut shavings and caramel for $9. Over priced …wouldn’t go back

    When seated, no one asked if we needed water for about 15 minutes. We actually saw someone seated after us get served water first. The watermelon kiwi cocktail was very refreshing. Chardonnay did NOT come in a chilled glass which seemed barbaric to me. The greek avocado salad with smoke salmon could’ve been better if there were more dressing, it was dry at the bottom even when mixing. My husband had a crab cake sandwich with chips. The taste of the crab meat was pretty good, but the proportion was off and it fell completely apart as he ate it. The chips were very fresh and tasty. Overall, don’t come here if you are hungry. For me, this is a cute place to take pictures and get drinks. HH seems to be popular!

    Urban Roast was a lifesaver! We had a reservation at the Watergate Rooftop for my friends proposal but due to the rain it was cancelled. I made a reservation with Urban Roast and let me tell you they did an AMAZING job they went above and beyond for us. It turned out wayyyyyyyyy better than it would have at the Watergate. I guess they say everything happens for a reason right?!? Definitely 10 Stars!!! Good, drinks, service atmosphere was Beyond expectations. If you’re thinking about proposing hands-down I choose urban roast!
