We have put Urban Plates on our favorites list. The food was plentiful, fresh and delicious. Pick up a tray, order, pay and then find a table. Don't miss the seasonal strawberry vanilla cake! Would recommend.

First time to a Sweet Tomatoes. It was my grand daughter's birthday and her choice...all you can eat desserts! It was very crowded at 6 PM on Sunday, St. Patrick's Day. After we paid, we had to wait about 5 min. for a table for 6. The buffet area had lots of dropped food and dressing. I wonder how many people touched those serving spoons???!!! Kids really enjoyed the freedom of getting up and getting more food. I thought the mushroom soup and corn bread were the best. On the way out I stepped on a piece of lettuce and went straight down. Manager came overto see if I was OK. I really got off easy without any big problems. Beware if you tumble or slip easily.

We had eaten lunch here before and enjoyed it. This time we stopped in before an early movie at the neighboring theater and had breakfast. We both had the 3 egg omelets. You can choose 3 fillings. They are served with home fried potatoes and one of their great cheese biscuits.

This is a good spot. Really busy on a Sunday , but worth the wait. Had steak and eggs with hash browns. Great steak and flavor. My other half had a veggie scramble. So much food. Great price. Finished with some pancakes, pretty good. Mimosas were on point. Plenty of inside and outdoor seating. Bring your sweater in case your outside on a chilly morning. Fast and friendly service.

Came here for dinner for my Niece's graduation. My first time here, so I was excited to see why they come here. Restaurant itself does not have their own parking lot or valet so you have to scramble for parking. You will be greeted with a smile, and if you are early, there is a full bar. Our server was pleasant, explained their specials and did not rush us. The steak I ordered was tasty and everyone was pleased with their meals.

Went into this restaurant three times for dinner. I was greeted very enthusiastically by the host and seated immediately. My waitress, Bailey, Kristina, and Asian were terrific; their service was excellent. Had the crab dip and a rack of ribs one nightWay more than I could eat. I had the burgers the last two night. Very tasty. Ordered beers which came in a cold canning jar excellent. Everything was so good. I would obviously come here again!!!

Very fun and happening place. In the shopping center by the Dublin IMAX and BART station. Great food and ambiance. Pets welcome on the cozy patio (they even have a doggie menu)We stopped to wait out traffic and chowed down on the flat iron steak. Amazing! Topped with garlic butter and plated with deliciously seasoned vegetables and au gratin potatoes. My partner garnished her steak with a side of jalapeños for some extra zip. To. Die. For. Great service and ambiance. Finished with some yummy banana pudding. Aaaahhh

We ordered a cinnamon roll, cookie dough waffle, banana and Nutella crepes and an omelette. The food was great except for the cinnamon roll which was too dry and hard. Our favorite entree was the cookie dough waffle! It was so delicious!

Enjoyed a nice dinner at Sabio at a window table for 2 (definitely make a reservation). We ordered the olives, manchego, flat iron, octopus, 4 draft beers and Valrhona Chocolate Crémeux = $115 -- doesn't seem too bad. Every dish was flavorful and even the beer was very crisp & tasty. Thought the dessert was one of the best desserts I have had and I am a total chocolate snob (and draft beer snob too). The only dish we can fault somewhat was the kinda chewy flat iron steak. However the hash side served w/ the steak was phenomenal! Service was attentive and friendly and we weren't rushed. I would definitely return!
