Urban Plates started in 2011 in Del Mar, CA. Two food industry veterans were tired of the compromises they had to make when eating out. They couldn’t find what they were looking for, so they created Urban Plates. We welcome one and all to our table, where craveable food is cooked from scratch with quality ingredients, sustainably grown, ethically treated, and made to order - all at prices that won’t break the bank.

Our secret? There isn’t one. We’re fueled by the power of real food and a passion to change the way the world eats, one plate at a time. It’s a movement so easy to join, you can do it by lifting a fork. If you’re ready to make a difference doing something that matters, surrounded by talented people in a culture that cares, apply to join our Team.

Everyone deserves to eat this good.
