Born from Four Young Parents with a Vision
Urban Hip-E was born from two things: a love of travel and the reality of parenthood.
Our founders Stanya and James fell in love with the bold, vibrant flavors of the Mediterranean while traveling abroad — and came home determined to bring that same soul to their own community. With four young kids and a desire to find a place where the whole family could eat out, eat well, and actually leave feeling good, they built the restaurant they couldn't find.
We believe you shouldn't have to choose between eating clean and eating fast. Between incredible flavor and real ingredients. Between a great meal and making it home in time for bedtime.
Fresh First Philosophy
Every ingredient is a choice we make with you in mind. No seed oils, no high fructose corn syrup, no antibiotics, no shortcuts - just real, seasonal food made with intention.
Community & Belonging
Every Urban Hip-E location becomes part of its neighborhood. We didn't just open a restaurant - we joined the community and created a space where everyone belongs.
