Urban Fresh in Chelmsford

We have wonderful time over our Christmas party and Christmas lunch and we want to thank Sam for cooking our Christmas lunch

We had a superb night my wife and I. Having booked a table to celebrate our wedding anniversary I asked for a few thing. We were seated in a nice corner table and they gave up a supervise complimentary couple of glasses of fizz. The staff and our host were amazing and attentive. The food did not disappoint. We ate well and it was simply delicious and magic. They took real care in the food. It was made with love. Often we eat out and skip desert if the food isn't special. Here it was. It was exceptional. I must say it was possibly one of the best meals I've eaten in many years! Congratulations. We will be back. Thank you for such a memorable experience. x Update 22.11.24: Not sure if this is under new management but things ain't the same since the review above. Service was very slow. The meals were quite pricey for what they were and desserts very disappointing at the £8.50 price point. I had a fancy Italian named dessert that amounted to 3 lumps of vanilla ice cream and some (minimal) chocolate made from white and milk missing the dark. Cheaper to buy a tub of Ben & Jerry's. Moving to an Italianesque menu is perhaps a clear indicator to maximising £££, but it really was a disappointment. Dropped 2*. Was 5/5. Now 3/5. I'm not sure of a return after today

Lovely place defo go back again

First time visit today with a party of 8 including 3 children and we will certainly be BACK. The restaurant looks amazing, absolutely love the decor and look. The place and toilets were spotless and the service from the staff was tip top. The food was amazing, well priced and great quality. The children had a great time and had fun.

I had a birthday party here. Very good service. Pleasant helpful staff.

Nice evening here and enjoyed our meal.

Always a Great Sunday lunch option. (And of course mid week too!)

Outstanding food and service. I look forward to eating out in the garden when it’s warmer.

Lovely decorated place and great service. I ordered 'Chicken Supreme' and chicken was very dry and was not hot, even though was supposed to be sizzling. My partner ordered 'Moqueca' and he enjoyed it. The starter and desserts were delicious. High prices considering the quality of food.

Food amazing. Service awful & zero atmosphere. Felt like the staff wanted the place to fail.

We found this restaurant by chance and we are so glad that we did. The food was amazing in terms of flavour, freshness and quality. We had the gucamole and Asian sticky beef to start and then the steak and chicken fajitas for mains and was blown away by the flavour. The chicken was moist and the beef was served pink and juicy. We could not fault the meal or service and will definitely be going back! Also, thanks to Leah for helping with our selections.

The food was amazing! Reminds me of being back in Brazil!

Went for dinner with the family. The food was tasty and reasonably priced. The children’s menu is great and has so many options on it for starters and Main. Would def recommend the Sticky Beef to start! Is the best thing I eaten in a long while! Have already recommend to all my friends and will be returning for sure.

Excellent food, service and ambience. Staff friendly and helpful. Pleasant decor

A beautifully decorated restaurant, with lovely friendly staff and delicious food. It was our first time there today and it definitely won't be our last. Thank you!

4 of us 6 starters, every one delicious, from the vegetarian guacamole to the tiger prawns, but especially the sticky beef. The roast dinner also way above expectations, belly pork in particular very tasty.

Food was good. the range eaten across the group made it look like there wasn't a bad option . Some dishes are a very generous portion size and so could have been shared. It was quiet when we went but as there were 6 on our table it didn't matter too much.

My favourite restaurant!! The food is amazing, especially the Moqueca and the Carne Pegajosa. Recommended this place to everyone I know.

Live down the road so decided to try this and can honestly say I was very impressed, had the picanha steak which was perfectly cooked with a nice chimichurri sauce and the most fluffy and crispy triple cooked chips, will be making regular trips here.

What’s fabulous find! Amazing food an awesome service today! Took my friend for her birthday and Can’t recommend this place enough we will def be back

First time at Urban Fresh tonight, and the food was amazing, the service was so very good! Harrison was so lovely at helping us all evening! Just such a good night thanks so much.

We had an absolutely amazing meal. The flavours and quality of the food were unbelievable. We will definitely be returning. I can't wait to sample something different as the menu looks fantastic so couldn't make up our minds. Will be recommending it to all of my friends for sure 10/10

Food was good, but expensive for what is really a resteraunt fixed to a pub, but 20 mins to have the drinks order taken and then another 30 mins for the food order to be taken and they were not busy at all.

We really enjoyed the food. Lots of flavour and nice to have something a bit different. The food was so good that for those of us who couldn't finish, we all took our leftovers home for lunch today. The decor and service were great. It was a bit on the pricey side but I know everyone is struggling with costs at the moment. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu and would recommend it to others.

First time there yesterday and it was amazing 👏 food was fantastic staff were perfect and a brilliant atmosphere, everyone was enjoying themselves outside and the decor inside looked brilliant

I really enjoyed the restaurant, the vibe, service etc. The food to be honest wasn't bad it was nice but it was also quite bland I found. I had the burrata and it was just lacking something more and the steak skewers which were cooked well but the meat was still a little too tough and it lacked flavour. I found the marinade or rub they use too bland for me but I probably use more spices/herbs than most. However I would go back I enjoyed the restaurant.

It was a quiet mid week meal. Attentive polite waitress. Good drinks, the food was well cooked and served. Nicely seasoned and full of flavour. Large portions so go hungry. Recommended the steak and chicken skewers. Definitely coming back with friends

Birthday dinner for our daughter on a quiet Monday evening. Perfect setting and the best food we have had in ages. Great background music - just loud enough to enjoy and have a conversation at the same time. Lived up to the 5* reviews without a doubt! Can’t wait to return ….

Went for the lunch menu £20 two courses. It was amazing and so much food. Restaurant looks great also. I will definitely be returning. Waiter was fantastic. Highly recommend

What a unexpected great Friday night. The service was attentive but not over the top. We had a youngster with us and they made her mocktails. The Chateaubriand was lovely. Can’t wait to take friends. Top Notch!

Great neighbourhood restaurant. Fresh food, well cooked, with lots of options on the menu. I was so excited about my burger that I forgot to take a picture, but here’s a photo of the cheesecake I had. We had the 2 courses for £20 midweek lunch and were monumentally full afterwards. High quality food in a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. Will be returning.

Lovely food, great service and very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing first experience at Urban Fresh! The food was genuinely brilliant - so fresh, flavoursome and colourful. Thoroughly enjoyed every dish. The waitress - Madelina- was extremely friendly and progressional, and made our experience a very enjoyable one. Cannot wait to come back and to tell our friends and family about this restaurant too. Thank you for a fab evening!

Nice place. The roast was amazing. The service is good but not the best.

This is my new favourite place to eat!!! 6 of us had a beautiful meal here Thursday evening, perfect service, beautiful menu, the food was exquisite!👌💝We all had such a lovely evening, can't wait to return!! Thank you! 🙏Xxx

Just had lunch at Urban Fresh, what a very good restaurant, superb food, great ambience and attentive but not bowing and scraping staff. I had Sticky Beef starter which I would recommend highly followed by very good Fish Stew. Very good all round .

Lovely family meal. All three courses were fantastic. Very welcome addition to the village. They have done a great job in the kitchen.

Fabulous food and service (had late lunch yesterday) great menu with a Spanish South American twist. Will be going back again, loved it!

Really good food, wagu burgers went down well and the sirloin was lovely. All at a reasonable price.

Just had a fabulous evening at Urban Fresh celebrating my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary. Great but relaxed decor, excellent food and very friendly, attentive staff. They made a lovely fuss of my parents without being overbearing at all. We will certainly be back!
