"I had the fried chicken and waffle, chicken was way over breaded and they used corn meal so it was really dark. Inside was juicy and tasted good. The waffle was blue corn and delicious with the bourbon infused syrup (and the chicken). To my tastes what I got was not worth the price."

"Food was great but the wait was so long I forgot I was hungry. Crowded space. Hey was sat at the edge of the bar at first which was obviously not intended to seat anyone. Then, after asking to move, was placed at the worlds smallest table between two booths. Parking was atrocious. If you want to wait and don't mind walking and being seated at the mercy of th..."

"Urban Steam is hidden away 'downtown' in COS. Parking is very limited, so order a car or be willing to park in front of one of the sketchy houses across the way. Urban Steam, while serving me a cute and kitschy vibe, I was a little overwhelmed with the small area that is the restaurant. There's not really a lot of room to talk to anyone you're sitting with,..." Read more

"it's in a pretty location, lots of homeless people walking around so be careful. the restaurant itself has a hipster rustic vibe to it. I ordered the Buddha Bowl and my boyfriend ordered the Chicken and Waffles. The Buddha Bowl was alright but it certainly did not have enough flavor. The chicken and waffles were amazing though, i certainly recommend these. I..." Read more

"Mmmm Breakfast, my favorite meal of the day. I liked it, and I would lean more towards 3.5 stars but we know it isn't possible.  I went with the Urban Tourist which was basically like a Benedict on toast with no sauce and a side of sweet  potato hash.  My husband ordered the Sunrise burrito with green chili.  Service: It was a bit spotty, and..."

"This is a cute place to get breakfast/brunch in Colorado Springs. I ordered the tourist eggs benny and it was decent. The eggs weren't cooked well though. I look forward to the runny eggs in my eggs benny, but both my eggs were over cooked so the yolk was completed cooked. Bummers. And it just comes with a salad on the side which I thought was a weird combo..." Read more

"The location is sketchy to say the least. We dared to go based on all the amazing reviews. The place is cute inside, but you seat yourself and then get up to order at the bar and it is a little awkward. Our server wasn't having the best day so we had to get up and ask for water and then silverware after our food came. The food is decent, but not outstanding...." Read more

"Food, coffee and atmosphere are fantastic, BUT...SERVICE BY ONE OF THE WAITERS WAS THE WORST.  He tended to customers around us (literally) and totally ignore my friend and i. Had to go inside for more drinks, and also for our tab.  Worst part: the manager defended the waiter...pitiful.
  We'll go back and hope for a better experience."

When the waitress finally came over, she didn't say hello or anything- just "have you decided what you want to eat" so we asked what the soup was and she co..." Read more

"We went here on a whim and were thoroughly impressed with the food and the atmosphere. That being said the service was terrible, I understand they were short staffed but our server could have come to our table and apologized for the wait since we were waiting for our  check for almost 20 mins. Great food but probably won't be back."

So, this rating merely reflects my experience today.  Im not sure why it took so long for our food to come because it hasn't been that way in the past.  It took over 30 minutes for us to get two breakfast dishes.  The restaurant w..."

"I haven't been in awhile, so when I came in. I knew I could expect something beyond my expectations. Because the last few times I came in, I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of food. I ordered a eggs benedict this time, and what I got was one over poached egg that could be considered a hard boiled egg. I told my server my egg wasn't poached and show..." Read more
