What customers say?

“ I work at Jimbos and this is a perfect spot to order Togo or sit in amazing birri tacos. My favorite so far just fresh and yummy ”

- ChessieME -

“ Our group of four were seated quickly and found a great drink menu and plenty of dinner choices. Two of us tried cocktail recommendations that proved bang on. Very attentive staff as well as who we suspected may have been the owner. Mole is deep, dark and has a kick. Cauliflower tacos are an absolute must try - all other tacos were delicious and well balanced. Even the rice and beans were good. Plenty of thing we didn't get to try, but will be back do so soon. ”

- Sean Tompkins -

“ Service was on point. Ordered a few different items and they were good overall. The filet tacos were definitely the best and the pork belly was decent. The chicken was dry for the mole tacos. Nachos and elote hit the spot. ”

- Keoni Simmons -

“ I’ve been to this place a few times and it’s consistently delicious! A more upscale Mexican spot and the prices reflect that but the food has quality ingredients and the service is good! ”

- Katrina Salinas -

“ Good restaurant. They do an upscale take on street tacos. My favorite was the al pastor-- highly recommend that one. The tortillas are handmade and very delicious. We had some agua frescas, which were refreshing (I had the tamarindo tamayo). Good dessert as well-- bread pudding with ice cream. Check it out. ”

- John Bathke -

“ It was a nice restaurant in an affluent area. We got there after lunch and before dinner rush and we were told we have to wait to be seated-no problem, but the entire dining room was empty and there were only people at 2 small tables on the balcony- we ended sitting in the same area. Good thing there was a break in the rain. It took almost 30min to get our food and drinks ordered, then we lost track of time once our apps and drinks were served. I'll say they had their own flair to their food and presentations, but not much authentic tradition in the foods. It was potions were decent but prices too high matched the area nd ambience, but not the food itself. ”

“ Had a wonderful dinner at Urbana. Very friendly service. Margaritas were well made. Micheladas were superb. Veggie tacos were well presented and their spicy salsa really has a kick to it! ”

- Sudatta Gautham -

“ Loved the atmosphere. The food was good. I got the arrachera taco, pork belly taco, elote and I was craving a michelada (margarita and beer)… when I saw that they had a Michelada I immediately order that. What I wasn’t told by the under 21-year-old server, is that it’s not your typical Michelada. I do not blame her, but I would think in the future it would be great to make sure your customers know there’s a difference. This one is served with side of seasonings. I believe there is Worchester sauce, something spicy in it. So you’re supposed to add this into your beer. I was not a fan I took a few sips, but I left it. I really enjoyed the pork belly taco and the Elote the steak taco was OK. I do believe that the prices are a little higher than they should be for what you get. I’m sure because of the location and area that it’s located in that is part of the reason the prices are that way. I really wanted to try it, so I’m glad I did. I may be back in the future and maybe will try different tacos but I will know not to get any alcoholic beverage unless it’s a regular margarita ”
