We're always trying to find restaurants that serve adult food where it is not that big of a deal to bring your kids. Urban Belly is one of those restaurants that we really enjoy going to. The restaurant is located in a strip mall (so keep your eye out or you will walk/drive right by) at 3053 N. California. The food is Asian fusion, I guess, and the menu is made up of dumplings, noodle dishes, and rice dishes. The dumplings are really good. We like the ones with duck and pho spices. What we really go for, however, are the noodle dishes. One order is plenty of food for my husband and I to eat so we always have a hard time deciding what to get. Usually we end up with the rice cake with chicken, mango, and Korean chili sauce but we've tried just about noodle dish and they are all good. The food is a bit spicy, however, for small children. The restaurant offers one kid's option, a noodle bowl (you choose the type of noodle) in a very mild, non spicy but also very delicious broth. My older daughter loves it and always eats just about the whole thing even though it is definitely big enough for a couple of kids.
There is a small parking lot in front of the restaurant. Inside the restaurant, all of the seating is at four large communal tables. You are supposed to order at the counter first and then sit down. Wait staff will bring you your food and bus your tables when you are done. I wouldn't say the staff is the friendliest I've ever seen but they are not rude and the food more than makes up for it. Urban Belly is open from 11 AM - 9 PM Tuesday through Sunday.
