The menu is clearly marked for GF items. I ordered seared ahi tuna steak plate with sesame broccoli and balsamic roasted brussel sprouts. The steak was very thick, but it was also dry. I didn’t enjoy it. The brocolli was over cooked and a little too mushy for me. I like a crunch with my bite of broccoli. But the sesame sauce was tasty. The brussel sprouts was the bomb! Best part of the meal. I Would order these again.

Containers containing food with gluten are right next to the gluten-free items. Some of that food gets knocked into the gluten-free containers so safety is greatly compromised.

Was excited to try this place because it is so clearly marked on their menu what items are gluten free and also dairy free ! Had the braised Moroccan Chicken with rice and gf bread . They seemed so well informed ! I trusted them. BUT …half way through the meal I began to get my usual symptoms of gluten exposure . When you know , you know . Enter day 2 and I’m in bed all day and stomach is destroyed . Had to be cross contamination is my best guess . I really don’t understand offering gluten free in such a proudly public way and yet based on other bad reviews for this chain there is NO awareness of cross contamination . It can be as simple as changing your gloves or using a clean utensil to plate my food but a dedicated gluten free area and grill / toaster / fryer etc means you are truly gluten free. I’ve eaten at restaurants that make the minimal efforts like knowledge of ingredients and glove changes and not gotten sick . So something at Urban Plates is definitely wrong .

Honestly what I ordered reminded me of a frozen lean cuisine I ate back in the 90’s and also my meal only had 3 little chunks of chicken in it . So here I am telling all of you my warnings . It takes weeks to recover as many of you well know . Based on their large menu I might have tried something different in the future since I didn’t really like my choice of entree . Their salads looked good . However , I doubt I will ever go back based on the fact that they made me sick and miserable . Basically I paid them to wreck me and my health . This gf community at least gives us a voice to warn others . Hopefully you will have a better experience if you decide to try this place .
