I like its 25 and up, the issue is the space and reservations. People with no reservation just walk in taking seats when people leave. Over all, I like the spot.

I ve been to Urban Social twice on a random Sunday. The crowd tends to ebb and flow. The atmosphere has always been energetic and fun. Great drinks and bartenders. The music is a blend of old and new. It s always great to have that balance. The DJ makes a difference. You can definitely get a line dance in. Parking is a pain depending on the size of the crowd. Overall, it s a place worth checking out.

We stopped by Urban Social to wrap up a daytime birthday celebration with one last drink before heading home, and let me tell you the Peanut Butter Espresso Martini is incredible! It s so good, I d happily drive 35 minutes just to get one. Everyone in our group got one and couldn t stop raving about it. We even joked about taking a pitcher of it home! If I m ever in the area again, I ll definitely make it a priority to grab another one.

I Went here alone tonight to get a a little me time. Now I don t go out AT ALL so for me to come to this place by myself and still enjoy myself says a lot. I noticed it s a mix aged crowd but still very grown and sexy. I sat at the bar and the bartenders were so attentive and such sweethearts they really took care of me! I chilled and had my drink did not feel awkward or out of place everyone minds there business. This place is definitely a vibe.

I had fun and would definitely go back. The Blueberry Lemon Drops were delicious. I ordered the food next door at the speakeasy it was ok. Im not 100% they are the same restaurant so I won t rate it - I wish the lamb sandwich came with fries. It was late. I wouldn t order that again. My sister ordered the tacos and they looked really good. you

I gave 4 stars cause music and atmosphere is on point!...Bad thing is this place has gotten too popular for the 30 and up crowd on Tuesday night. You are in there like sardines. Bartender have good strong drink but its a fight to get to the bar. Good vibes, nobodys showing out trying to get attention, nothing wild I can respect that.

If you re a woman your safety is not a priority. My female friend had a disagreement with an apparent male regular bar attendee and he was very disrespectful. Trevor the security guard basically told my friend her safety didn t matter because the man was a regular who spent lots of money at the bar. Ladies be careful!

One of the bouncers saw one of my girls dancing on the table and came over aggressively telling her to get out. Seeing how this was her first offense we tried to tell him that we would get her down and he proceeded to push our girlfriend and the one that was dancing and got down. He took his authority overboard and I ve been coming to this place for years. I was irate and couldn t believe that a black man could handle a black woman like that and think it would be the ok.what are you the cops?

I have only one or two comments. I love how the establishment answers the negative reviews with something positive. Nothing to far reaching. Just a cozy message of intent of doing better or sad that they were not what you expected. You cant make everyone happy. Especially US. Just keep trying Urban Social and most of us will keep coming.

The drinks are great! And the bartenders arent rude even though theres so many people speaking to them at once. They only negative is that they let too many people in at times which makes it shoulder to shoulder. I definitely like coming before the crowd when you can possibly find a seat or a comfortable place to stand.
