It is so friendly and welcoming right off the bat. So already you feel at peace right as you walk in. It is clean and it smells wonderful inside. The menu is extensive, but the staff is so wonderful about helping you figure out what you want. I got the Milly Vanilly smoothie. It was so good the first time I had it, that I only got a couple of steps before I had to go back in and thank them. It was SO GOOD. I went back a week later and had their tacos. It was a special, so forgive me for not knowing what everything is called, but it was wonderful. I ate everything. There were noodles and fresh pineapple. The food is good for you and I am glad this place exists. It really REALLY matters what you eat and I feel like this place has my back on that one. I will be coming here as much as I can. Flavors are spot on and fresh.

My friend boasted about the great service, and all vegan options that this restaurant had. The owners were very friendly. I had an amazing coffee smoothie. (maca java) I also sampled the vegan biscuits and gravy! The biscuits were very buttery and the gravy had a nice texture to it. Good thing to know that they cook everything fresh and from scratch, using high quality ingredients. I am definitely going to stop by again before I leave Tucson!

Wow! I have had two takeouts (soup) and a Thai wrap. All amazing! Fresh ingredients, not off a Cisco truck. It as been busy each time I go in, but never rushed. You don't have to be vegan or vegetarian to enjoy the offerings at Urban Fresh.

Staff (and especially the owner) are incredibly kind and offer fantastic service. Having a vegan fast-casual place within walking distance of the office is fantastic. Relatively small menu, but everything I’ve tried I would happily order again. Do not sleep on the baked goods!

I used to work downtown and would often get smoothies from this place. The owner is always so kind and generous, ane the other staff are also very welcoming. I definitely recommend going!

My wife and I have been traveling for over 3000 miles and we finally finally arrived in Tucson Arizona. Fortunately we happen upon urban fresh Tucson. Our 20 combined meal was the best and healthiest meal that we’ve had on our entire trip and that includes 50 entrees. Also had an opportunity to meet and chat with the owner lovely man… very knowledgeable about the city. urban fresh Tucson is definitely a must on our next trip to Tucson.

Phenomenal experience at Urban Fresh. The staff was super friendly and gave us lots of helpful information about the area. The food was incredible. My omnivore husband said it was the best vegan meal he had ever had.

One of the best vegan restaurants in Arizona. The service is incredible too. Great people. The Reuben is 100 out of 10. Highly recommended.
