Reviews
The Miami Herald loves Urbanite's burgers, and Miami New Times gives high marks to the beverage list:
- We devoured the meaty, juicy burgers, including the signature Urbanite 8-ouncer layered with bourbon-sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, smoky pancetta and manchego cheese with sweet and smoky steak sauce on a toasty brioche bun. Other excellent burgers include the lean bison and a jerk-seasoned turkey with mango and avocado. – Victoria Pesce Elliott, Miami Herald
- The wine, spirit, and cocktail selections certainly hit the mark. There's a Japanese Suntory Yamazaki 18-year single-malt whiskey, a 2005 Mondavi-Rothschild Opus One, and mixed drinks such as the zesty yet sweet "Ron con Cola," featuring Flor de Caña rum, housemade spicy cola, an orange twist, and a sugar cane stick on the rocks. Then there's the cooling "Cucumis Sativus," made with Hendrix vodka, cucumbers, lemon verbena, and lavender simple syrup. Urbanite also has ales, lagers, porters, stouts, wheats, and even framboise, a fruity lambic from Belgium. – Riki Altman, Miami New Times
Yelpers rate it 3.5 stars, and 79% of Urbanspooners like it:
- Been there two consecutive weekends and the food as well as service was great. Fun beer tasting and ribeye steak was awesome. Definetly [sic] will continue to go. – Napasnob, Urbanspoon
