My husband and I went to Urban Dish for our 35th Anniversary based on all the positive Trip Advisor reviews and it did not disappoint. As former restaurateurs we know how labour intensive it is to put out quality food and Jen's staff excels on...quality, presentation and creativeness. Our Calamari stater was an explosion of tastes, tender calamari, sweet pineapple salsa, peppery arugula, and a spicy pepper sauce. Our mains of Rack of Lamb and Beef Short Ribs were cooked to perfection. Though we were full the desserts were enticing so we opted for the Deconstucted Lime Tart and the Bread Pudding infused with vodka cream anglais which were the ultimate finale. Our server Erica was knowledgeable and charming and watched over our table but was never intrusive, we thoroughly enjoyed her service. The Mixologist made a drink called a Paloma and boy was it smooth I look forward to trying others made by him. This was by far one of the best meals that we have had and we look forward to many more.More

From the time we entered the young host seated us in a very welcoming manner. We were then met by Kate, our server who was so bubbly and friendly. She explained all the specials by going through the specials card. My wife ordered the lamb...done medium rare and she got two double bone chops and a medley of root vegetables. I ordered the AAA Beef Tenderloin finished with a red wine reduction, along with root vegetables and onion rings. All the food was exceptional. I can see why TripAdvisor rates Urban Dish the best restaurant in Barrie.More

We are so happy we found this gem, truly incredible food made from scratch. Everything was perfect from the second we walked in, our server Laura was incredible, kind and knowledgable, she took the time to talk to us and made us feel at home....I can't even begin to explain the amazing food, so fresh and delicious. Thank you for making our date night perfect!More

The drinks are so creative, a true quality bartender. The food quality and presentation are over the top ! This is absolutely the best bistro restaurant in the city of Barrie.

I had the pleasure of having lunch at this lovely quaint restaurant in Barrie. My friend and I are true foodies. We worked together travelling the country for many years and have the privilege of dining at lots of independent and interesting restaurants from Vancouver...to PEI. This little spot in Barrie was delightful! A limited menu, with lots of diversity, so sure you can find something. Better to have a smaller menu and do it well. Andy looked after us. Service was perfect! We enjoyed the grilled caesar salad, shared the calamari and the chicken lollipops. Food was ABSOLUTLEY to die for! Hats off to the chef, he/she knows about FLAVOUR. All at a reasonable price too. One thing worth noting....it was a bit chilly inside, so wear a sweater. We will be back at this spot for sure.More

We celebrated my wife's 80th birthday at Urban Dish on January 24, 2023. The atmosphere and setting were very conducive to a great dining experience. Staff were friendly, professional, and very helpful. My wife ordered scallops for her appetizer and lobster stuffed ravioli for her...main dish. I had very tasty mushroom soup and a very large rack of lamb. This was the most lamb I have ever had in a rack of lam restaurant order. The food was beautifully presented and extremely tasty. We also enjoy a glass of cabernet wine each from California. I would whole heartedly recommend Urban Dish for a great fine dining experience in Barrie.More

Urban Dish is our favourite local restaurant and for good reason: the food is always excellent. Our New Year’s meal was 5 courses and it took over 2 hours to finish. You absolutely will not be disappointed, but in the event something doesn’t quite make...the mark, the staff are very obliging in providing a substitute. Treat yourself!More

Celebrated 22 years and really enjoyed our meal and the outdoor patio was wonderful. Service was great! We had the Lobster Ravioli and Chicken Roulade and both of us were very pleased with our choice. Started with chipotle soup which was absolutely delicious. Seasonal drinks...were great. Only disappointment was the apple crumble but overall still a 5 rating. Parking is easy!More

Great spot! Just had lunch here and was most impressed. Excellent service; excellent food. Very refreshing and imaginative menu. Perfectly seasoned dishes. This chef knows how to please the pallet. I will return again and again!

We were two couples and we each had something different. The food was amazing both in taste and presentation. We were very impressed and will definitely be back soon.

There were 6 in our group and for most of us, it was our first time at Urban Dish. Our server Erica was beyond amazing! She was professional, warm welcoming and was genuinely excited. Her drink and food recommendations were perfect. The food in was...flavourful, portioned just right and presented like art. Our pre-dinner cocktails were also unique and delicious. If you are wanting a dining experience that will wake up and allow your taste buds to sing, you will not be disappointed. I am looking for are to my next time at Urban Dish.More
