Great food, wonderful service, dining at PLANTA in Bethesda always a joy!

So good, you wouldn’t even be able to tell that it’s all vegan. I’ve been here four times and I always have a blast. We always end up over ordering because everything on the menu just seems so delicious, and I always leave with my stomach full and my face smiley!

Order several items. There were clear winners and a few misses. Winners—bao sliders, bang bang broccoli, vodka pizza. My companions really enjoyed the cookie and ice cream. The spicy pasta had no flavor and the cheesecake was just okay. Our server Jessie was great and made for a great evening.

Had a great meal in a lovely environment. I am not vegan & am a semi-picky eater. This place was great and tasted like (& better than) a lot of regular restaurants. Definitely recommend & will be back!

I have been to Planta twice and was impressed both times by the service and quality of food! This most recent time we had the pleasure of being assisted my Emme who is phenomenal. She is very knowledgeable about the food and an excellent communicator. One of my friends has some nut allergies and she made sure to seek clarification on items before we placed our orders. Emme was most of all very pleasant and we felt very much at home there. As far as food and drinks, our favorite cocktail by far is the “Herb your enthusiasm”. For food items, our faves were the avocado lime tartare, the whipped ricotta, the bang bang broccoli, the 1000 layer potatoes, and the spicy lumaconi pasta. We went to celebrate my friends birthday and she is vegetarian but my sister and who are non-veg did enjoy the food as well. Planta has elevated vegan food to the max!

Overall a good place to eat vegan food. My favorite is the eggplant unagi nigiri the truffle flavor is delicious. Had a few other rolls like the crispy rice which is great. And the dragon roll which is good. The torched and pressed maki is my least favorite due to texture and flavor. I liked the lettuce wrap. Good flavor. I also got the chocolate chip cookie. Third time I had this and this time it was off a bit grainy and tough which is sad because the other times it was delicious and gooey.

Second time coming here and they updated the brunch menu and everything I had was amazing. The whipped ricotta is a MUST TRY. Special thanks to the manager and Joshua!! Such amazing customer service which made the entire experience phenomenal.

If I had written this review a year ago, it would have been 5 stars but the last 2 times I’ve been to Planta have been a huge disappointment.
