Planta is South Beach's chic vegan hotspot, serving innovative dishes like coconut ceviche and watermelon sushi in a stylish, vibrant atmosphere.
"Planta (the sister spot of Planta Queen) is an upscale, photogenic vegan spot in South of Fifth. This place makes pretty good meatless versions of sushi, burgers, pizza, and other things they’ve somehow MacGyver’d out of plants and fruit. Like most photogenic South Beach spots, it’s a little pricey, but it can be a good option if you want to dress up and have a fancy (but meatless) dinner. We like the food at the Grove location a bit better, but this is still a good South Beach option with a different menu. " - ryan pfeffer, carlos c olaechea
