David and I went to Urban Grille one time early on when we were dating. It's one of my favorite memories because we had a fun day that day and we drove there in the Porsche with the top down, so I always wanted to go again. They have gourmet burgers that I remember being tasty. This weekend, we visited again.
The restaurant is modern. It's casual food served in a finer dining atmosphere. We have eaten in the bar at a hightop both times. They have other fare, including sandwiches and appetizers, but we went for the burgers and we both ordered one. They offer 1 lb, 1/2 lb and 1/3 lb Angus beef, and then they also offer the burgers in other varieties of meat. Check the menu for details.
The burger menu allows you to build your burger with a variety of toppings and sauces. I had mine with Fontina cheese, caramelized onions and Bourbon sauce. I ordered it medium well, but I could have ordered it medium, because I overheard the waiter talking about the high quality of the beef. David ordered his with bleu cheese, tomato, raw onion and Bourbon sauce. They were both delicious, and came with a tasty side salad. We ordered a side of French fries to share. Everything was delicious, and the food was just enough. We didn't leave with that overfull feeling. If you prefer to be stuffed, you can opt for one of the larger burgers.
Our waiter was extremely nice and attentive. The restrooms were super clean and very nicely done. Plenty of hot water, soap and paper towels were available.
We agreed that we both like the atmosphere and the food is good, so we'll return more often than every 2.5 years. I recommend Urban Grille if you're in Geneva or nearby and want a gourmet, build your own burger experience. I'm pretty sure they have whatever you want at the bar too, and they have a couple of flat screens in the bar area. If you feel like a walk after, the restaurant is located on a quaint downtown strip that overlooks the Fox River. It's romantic for first dates and any date after, or for a friends night out.
