Planta Queen

I’ve been to this place at least five times and have always enjoyed it. I recently returned for one of my belated birthday celebrations and had a cozy meal with a good time. However, one downside was that despite having a reservation for 7:45 pm, we weren’t seated until nearly 8 pm, which made the reservation feel redundant. Our waiter was very efficient and recommended some dishes which were tasty and enjoyable. ORDERED: Firecracker roll Torched & pressed Caesar salad Bang Bang Broccoli Singapore noodle Out of all the dishes we ordered, I really liked the torched & pressed and the bang bang broccoli the best, from my previous visits, I really liked the Dan Dan noodle and the unagi eggplant the best.

Highly recommend eating at Planta Queen, by far one of the best spots we’ve eaten at. The Asian fusion was delicious, wasn’t disappointed by anything we tried, it was all really flavoursome. The vibe and the staff at the restaurant were great too! I think 2/3 plates per person is ideal. The bang bang broccoli is divine!!

I will be coming here multiple times. Planta Queen is an all vegan restaurant. They have a Maki Monday where all their sushi rolls are $9 each (excluding specials). I could eat three of the tuna rolls. The bang bang broccoli is also delicious. Then there’s the lychee cocktail! I want to go back to try everything on the menu. You definitely should make a reservation because it gets busy.

Food is a 100 and vibe is 💯. Phenomenal tasting food literally I loved it. They very beautiful looking and well crafted drinks 🍹. The service was phenomenal, they came and checked on is fee times. This a must visit in NYc I recommend: General D’s cauliflower and Dan Dan noodle and bang bang Brocolli

The food was excellent. It felt like I was eating food from an alternate universe where food just tastes better in general. And our server was incredible. Just docking 1 star for atmosphere because it was a little cramped walking to the bathroom and the bathroom itself could have been cleaner but everything else was incredible.

I usually feel out of place at fancy restaurants, as a vegan who doesn't drink, but I felt like I could let loose here. Not only is everything vegan, but a lot of the cocktails are nonalcoholic by default. The waiter was incredible, I came here for an anniversary and he volunteered to take a whole series of professional photos for us and put a romantic candle in our dessert. The Torched and Pressed sushi was easily the most flavorful, texture-rich sushi I've had in my entire life. They recommend 2-3 plates per person, but I was full from 2. My leftovers were still delicious, though, no regrets. I'll definitely be back for any celebration!

My first time but certainly not the last. A must when in NYC. We attended a birthday party and were in the dragon room downstairs. The food was excellent. We ate everything!! The drinks and cocktails were fantastic Dinner was just perfect

We went for dinner here for the first time and was genuinely surprised at their vegan menu which was diverse and so so appealing in terms of taste. The hostess was amazing and seated us at a place that would be convenient because we had a stroller and a sleeping baby inside it. We had spicy tuna roll, dragon roll, 1000 layer potatoes and kimchi fried rice plus drinks. Every dish was on point in terms of flavor and presentation and we were a satisfied and well fed couple by the end of it all. Definitely recommend for its taste and easy going atmosphere and friendly servers.

Stopped in solo for lunch last week and had an amazing time! Beautiful room, excellent service, and I ordered too much food and ate it all, lol! Everything was delicious, and beautifully presented. Planta Queen remains one of my favorite restaurants.

Not dog friendly! Mixed messages. Was yelled at by Mary, the hostess, for asking if we could sit outside with our puppy. However, we went there three times before and sat outside with the pup. We enjoyed our past meals at Planta but was turned away this time. Mary basically kicked us out and told us to leave as she screamed at us because we had a puppy with us. Too bad because the food as it is quite yummy here.

My friend is vegan and gluten free, and Planta had so many options for her! This is a great spot, and I really loved the creativity that was on the menu. It's actually incredible that everything on the menu is vegan. That being said, what I had was decent, but not great. We shared the crab roll, and I ordered the scallion pancake with egg. The crab roll was soft and had great flavor. I only wished that it had some kind of difference in texture like a crunch factor, or some kind of difference in taste as I found it somewhat one note. Not to go all food network, but maybe some acidity would have helped it. The scallion pancake with egg was underwhelming. The egg was scrambled which didn't make any sense to me as that meant that I couldn't pick the wrap up since the egg was falling out of it. I think it would have made more sense to fry the egg or make it over hard so that it was one piece that would make it easier to eat. I had to eat it with a fork and knife because of this. The pancake itself was also extremely flour-y and didn't have that flaky quality you crave in a scallion pancake. It was more cakey than anything. The eggs were nicely seasoned though. The interior of this place is also really beautiful. I'm not sure if I just ordered the wrong thing, but I would still recommend Planta to any vegan eaters who are looking for something slightly more upscale.

The restaurant is gorgeous, but unfortunately I didn't have a reservation and was seated at the bar, which I didn't mind much. I'd love to come back and experience being seated inside. Initially I was not so happy because it took a good 5 minutes for the bartender to acknowledge me and give me a menu, and I wasn't given water when I was finally provided the menu. There weren't many diners at the bar so it was strange. She was also a bit cold towards me, so I was uncomfortable. Later on a different bartender was far more attentive, kind and smiley so it turned my initial experience around. I ordered the bang bang broccoli. I honestly can't emphasize how truly delicious this is. I will come back just for this and make it my whole meal honestly. I don't even like broccoli, but this was phenomenal. Chef's kiss all around. The spicy tuna hand roll - I would pass on this, it was not much of an ode to the real thing, and to me it was more sweeter and bitter than I would have preferred. It looked gorgeous though. The Dan Dan Noodles, were just okay. The kamut in this dish was too much and taking over the dish in my opinion. The flavor was very coconut creamy. I've had incredible Dan Dan Noodles before, and this was different and not what I was expecting. The portion is huge and can be shared by 2-3 people. I will be back to try other menu items and give it another chance. I would rate my experience a 3, but the second bartender was so nice and the bang bang broccoli was out of this worldd, so bumped it up to a 4. Just happy to have a vegan/vegetarian restaurant to visit. Looking forward to going back :)

Probably the best vegan food you'll ever have. I'm not vegan, but I loved everything I ate at PLANTA Queen! It's going to be crowded and loud indoors and so we opted for outdoor seating, and 10/10 would come back. Be sure to make a reservation! Recommending the Ahi Tuna Roll. You can't go wrong with that. The Crispy Mushroom Bao. And the Mushroom Truffle Udon!

The vegan sushi and the crispy rice was great! Very unique and yummy. I eat meat and was quite impressed by the texture and flavor they managed to achieve. However the fried broccoli and dan dan noodles let us down. There was really nothing special and honestly it was a little lacking any depth flavor. Next time would just come for the starters and call it there.

I can't say enough about Planta! It's such a vibe! The interior design is dark, modern and chic. The staff is amazing! I wish I could remember my servers name; they had the best energy and was so charming! His energy was infectious! We ordered several dishes and each one were so tasty. The bang bang broccoli is a MUST. So is the crispy rice. The only dish I didn't like as much was the faux oxtails. The flavors were spot on but the texture was off for me. I dont think that would be a problem for others though. For a vegan spot, you don't miss the animal products at all. The drinks are also really good. So if youre going for happy hr and a quick snack or dining, you will enjoy it. The only negative is the price and the serving sizes. A little on the pricier side and not as much food. Other than that, I love Planta!

Beautiful ambience and one of the best plant based restaurants that I've been to! Our favorites were the 1,000 layered potatoes, crispy rice and unagi eel :)

Back again to our favorite eatery PLANTA Queen Nomad Broadway, and 27th St. If you're into vegan food that's the spot. The food is delicious. The Service is awesome. The atmosphere is great. They have seatings for two or more. The main guy and I have eaten there several times and by Far, it's our favorite vegan spot. If you're in the area and you're hungry, give them a try. You never know you might like eating Vegan, I'm just saying.

SERVICE - located in Flatiron District near Broadway and w 27th st - highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time - plenty of indoor seating on first and lower floors - ambiance good for a nicer meal or a date night - service is amazing! Our server was very good about checking in on us and providing menu suggestions as needed MENU - Asian inspired small plates and entrees with inventive drinks menu - all vegan - slightly pricey ($25 per entree) - look for their weekly specials like maki Monday FOOD - dragon roll (8/10): tempura broccoli, spinach, and avocado roll with a spicy unagi sauce. This is one of the more unique rolls as it has broccoli and spinach which are not typically found in sushi. I liked how the sauce was actually spicy but balanced out by the avocado, I wish the broccoli tempura was crispier. - torched and pressed (10/10): rice topped with avocado and miso truffle glaze. This was our favorite of the dishes we got. The miso glaze is like butter coating the slightly charred rice. If you are not a huge truffle fan then maybe skip this but if you love umami, this roll is perfect for you. - firecracker roll (9/10): Japanese sweet potato and avocado roll topped with crispy potato sticks and gochujang mayo. This roll was also a favorite. The only reason I would not give it a 10/10 is because the edge pieces were not as evenly filled as the center pieces. Otherwise, it really highlights the sweetness of the potato and the slight kick of the gochujang. - crispy rice (5/10): fried rice cake topped with watermelon tuna and avocado. Although the flavors of this dish were unique, the rice was very sticky which made the dish harder to enjoy. - spicy tuna roll (7/10): watermelon tuna, avocado, and coconut roll with a side of spicy mayo. Between this and the crispy rice, the flavors were very similar but I think this one was better texturally. - baked crab roll (7/10): heart of palm, spicy mayo, and ponzu inside a soy wrapper. This roll was also unique especially the fish like texture of the heart of palm. It was a nice contrast to the rest of the more classic rice based rolls. WOULD I GO BACK? Absolutely! This restaurant is one of my favorites and I cannot recommend it enough.

This is an exquisite dining experience if you are vegan, vegetarian or just appreciate great vegetarian food. They have daily specials, but the key to having a good experience is to go early. There is quite a long wait, even with a reservation we waited about 40 minutes to be seated. My friends and I went on a Monday for their all you can eat sushi special. It was a popular option though, the kitchen was backed up with orders, so I would not recommend ordering this if you go after 8pm, they may not be able to accommodate. They only allow one roll per person at a time and they were anticipating 45-60 mins for rolls to come out. They also price sushi special on Monday, where maki, nigiri and hand rolls are $9 and under. The highlights were the crispy rice tuna, dragon roll and glazed miso roll. Meal and ambiance were fantastic, flavorful and filling. I recommend getting a spread with noodles, rice and some of their wok or small plate items. Overall this was an incredible and enjoyable meal and great if you are boujee on a budget, but love fine dining!

Great Service all the workers were super nice. The bang bang broccoli was amazing very tangy sauce. The udon was good but did not like the Dan Dan noodles. The sushi and the buns were good nothing too surprising there.

My friend is vegetarian so we decided to try this place out. The vibe and food were all really good. Service was also top notch. UNAGI EGGPLANT NIGIRI (2 PIECES) miso truffle This is a must get. The eggplant really mimicked the slimy texture of an eel and the taste was on point with unagi sushi. Maybe even better. AHI WATERMELON NIGIRI (2 PIECES) ginger, citrus soy gluten free The flavoring was really good, but it doesn't beat the eggplant sushi. Their sushi rice was flavored really well, giving each piece a flavor bomb. It doesn't actually taste like tuna but looks close enough to it. TORCHED AND PRESSED avocado, miso truffle glaze gluten free This is really good as well, on par with the eggplant sushi. This is also a must try. BANG BANG BROCCOLI sweet chili, peanut sauce contains nuts gluten free Reviews said this was really good and it really was. A lot of flavor, crunch, and it felt substantial. 1,000 LAYER CRISPY POTATOES caviar, sour cream, chives gluten free Personally didn't care for this dish because the caviar wasn't really close enough to real caviar because it didn't have enough seafood flavor. The potato was good though but it was massive. We are friends with the table next to us and gave them the remaining two we had and they seemed to enjoy it. My friend and I thought it was ok. SCALLION PANCAKE EGG WRAP kimchi, hoisin I didn't care for this dish either. It wasn't bad but it wasn't great. It's not particularly memorable. THAI LETTUCE WRAPS shiitake mushrooms, tofu, lemongrass, crispy rice noodles, cilantro, nuoc cham gluten free This was really good. The mushrooms were packed with flavor and felt like real meat. I'd recommend. it's a matcha: oat milk, matcha powder It was a fine matcha, nothing too special. chaga chai'ccino: turmeric, cinnamon, organic chaga, add espresso If you like chai latte, you'd like this. Overall, really good experience! I'd come back again even if I'm not vegetarian.

Innovative and tasty vegan sushi! With a party of four, we did the all you can eat option, which turned out to be a great choice based on how much we ate. We tried each of the rolls included in the all you can eat, and specifically enjoyed the torched and pressed, spicy tuna, and crispy rice rolls. The service was quick and kind. I would definitely be interested in trying some of the other options.

Even on limited time, I make it a priority to visit PLANTA whenever we're in the same city. I walked here from the Empire State Building, and it was bustling on a Saturday evening. I happily sat at the bar. FIRECRACKER ROLL This was on their April exclusive menu. Filled with Japanese sweet potato, avocado, unagi, and topped with gochujang mayo & chili salt. DELICIOUS! It deserves to be a staple menu item. TORCHED AND PRESSED One of my go-to menu items. This roll is so melt-in-your-mouth creamy. I drool every time. I even convinced some girls sitting at the bar to order this roll. BANG BANG BROCCOLI My numero uno go-to dish since I visited the SOBE location a few years ago. Will never not order this. Crunchy. Flavorful. Amazing in every way. As they were leaving, a couple asked me about this dish and I let them each have one floret. They were sold! (Not all PLANTAs have the same dishes, but luckily, two of my favs have been at all the ones I've visited: FL, CA, IL, & NY.) TRUFFLE RICE I tend to avoid the main dishes and stick with starters and sushi, but I wanted to try something different. Unfortunately, I should've followed my instincts. It had a nice flavor to it, but it was dry and the rice was overcooked. Disappointing. There was so much potential with the cumulation of ingredients. As a PLANTA Passport holder who doesn't live near a PLANTA, I was excited to be able to use my birthday reward - a free dessert! But they didn't have my fav available- the giant chocolate chip cookie, so I ended up passing on dessert. Service was great. As busy as he was, he kept my water glass filled. The worst part about my visit is that I rushed out to catch my Uber back to Brooklyn and left my leftovers on the counter. I may have shed a tear about it. Tip: there are outlets and hooks at the bar.

As someone who usually prefers her meals with meat as the protein, this vegan restaurant did not disappoint! I highly recommend going. The space was soo cute, Tulum vibes. A must try is the Truffle Fried Rice which was my personal favorite. Everyone also really liked the Mushroom Udon Noodles, but it was too creamy for my taste. I loved the Chick'N Fried Mushrooms because the sauce was like fish sauce, and the Firecracker Wings was soo tasty as well (I forgot to take pics). Their happy hour is M-F from 3-6pm. Also keep in mind the portions are small since it is tapas style and meant to be shared!

PLANTA Queen was a night of highs and lows. High: - the drinks: lots of options for 'free spirits', a fun spin on 'spirit-free'. They had one with watermelon, basil, cardamom, and yuzu, which is basically all of my favorite ingredients spun into one. An obvious choice, and it delivered. - the avocado tartare (can we just call this 'guac'?). I liked the beets-as-tuna angle, and the pine nuts and capers kept it from being too sweet. - the 'unagi'. How close can eggplant get to eel? Real close, apparently. I could have eaten an entire meal of just this dish. Lows: - lettuce rolls: they tasted kind of 'muddy', as one of my companions put it, and she was spot on. Not sure how that can be the case with ingredients like lemongrass and fish sauce, but it is. - upside down cake: too sweet, thin sauce that sort of dripped off it like water, and the pineapple parts tasted like the can they came from. The dan dan noodles were the only thing that sat in the middle, where they were tasty, but kind of blended into a mushy slurry and really needed either a crunch or something to keep the ingredients separate until the last minute.

I went here with a coworker for lunch (and later ordered delivery from here) and can't say enough good things. We sat at the bar where our bartender/server was hilarious and helpful. The inside of this location is definitely a more cool/hip vibe, slightly upscale, but no need for more formal wear. We decided to share the Crispy Gyoza, Spicy Tuna Roll and the Torched and Pressed. I had wine and she had a cocktail. Everything was PHENOMENAL. Seriously couldn't even tell it wasn't really fish! Torched and Pressed was a favorite of mine. For delivery, I've tried Unagi Eggplant Nigiri and Ahi Watermelon Nigiri, as well as Cold Sesame Peanut Noodles. Perfection. Everything tastes so fresh and you can tell the chefs have spent a lot of time curating this unique menu. Really cool concept and my vegan friends have shared they love coming here as well. Can't wait to return!

I came to Planta Queen with 3 friends and had the opportunity to try multiple dishes! I recommend going with a group of people as this restaurant is meant to be family style so you can try a lot of the menu. The inside of planta queen was decorated beautifully with mood lighting (also great for a date). The service was also amazing and all the food came out surprisingly fast! We started out with 3 drinks and liked all of them! The Lych Please had a sweeter flavor and you could barely taste the alcohol. The Mez-Cal Me Maybe was spicier than expected but it's how I like my mezcal drinks so I was super happy (something to note however) and finally the Herb Your Enthusiasm was a light refreshing drink that was super good for the hot day NYC was having. We then ordered some sushi rolls to share. The Firecracker roll truly blew me away! The flavors were impeccable and I couldn't even tell it wasn't seafood. Usually I feel like vegetarian sushi has a mushy texture to it but this one was brilliant. We then also got the Dragon roll and the Baked crab roll, my vegetarian friends loved these rolls but I personally thought they were good but nothing special. The broccoli in the dragon roll gave it a good crunch but I felt like the baked crab roll could use a little more flavor. We then tried some amazing small plates! I had high expectations for the 1,000 layer crispy potatoes but it personally fell a little flat for me, I thought a sprinkle of flaky salt on top would've made it more dynamic of a dish. We also got the sweet corn dumplings and I loved this dish! Packed with flavor and something unique. We then ended the dinner with the Udon noodles and kimchi egg friend rice. The udon noodles were honestly one of the best dishes I've ever had the truffle sauce was heavenly and the noodles were perfectly cooked. I would come back to this restaurant to genuinely just get this dish again. The Kimchi fried rice was also good for a vegan dish but didn't stand out too much to me, we ended up pouring the udon sauce over the kimchi fried rice for some reason extra flavor. My vegetarian friend was visiting from out of town and we decided to try this place, I eat everything so I normally wouldn't have decided to go here on my own. However I'm super glad that I did and I will be coming back to try the other half of the menu that I wasn't able to!

I absolutely love Planta!! I've been here a few times now, and I think I like it even better now than the first or second time. Firstly when you walk in, the restaurant is absolutely beautiful. It is so cute on the inside! There is a nice bar area with seating, a main dining hall and also a downstairs area. All have a slightly different vibe. Upstairs is mostly earthy modern and downstairs is more modern with dragon decorations on the walls. The food here is very delicious- mostly Asian fusion cuisine. I've only been here with non-vegans, and they've all loved it. I think the food here is on the "heavy" side to me (fried, cream sauces etc) so either come hungry or try to mix it up to with lighter dishes. Favorites: truffle udon noodles, bang bang broccoli, corn dumplings. The udon is a star with generous truffle flavor and the portion is plenty to share amongst 2-3 people if you also order other apps and sides. The bang bang broccoli is fried with a yummy peanutty sauce. The spicy tuna sushi was good in terms of filling and creative watermelon ahi tuna, but I will say they put too much rice and the rice isn't like the type of sushi rice you get in a real Japanese restaurant. It's more like the kind of sushi you get in a supermarket kinda rice.. so I think they can work on that. It looks like it's rolled by a machine, which could very well be the case in a high volume restaurant like Planta! They also have a drinks and cocktails menu with pretty yummy cocktails with good presentation. Other things on the menu include a good selection of vegan sushi, dumplings / appetizers, salads, noodles, rice dishes. They also have vegan dessert such as a vegan egg waffle with ice cream! I tried that and it was ok- the waffle could be better. Service was good and they staff adequately to ensure a busy restaurant has fast service. Food came out quickly. Everything ran well and smoothly. It was very busy on a Thursday night- almost full. I would recommend making a reservation! Overall for me, Planta is a go to vegan spot, not just for vegans but also non-vegans. Great "intro" spot for someone who has never had vegan food. Fun and pretty place for almost any occasion- casual hangout with friends, date night, birthday, anniversary etc. Conveniently located in Nomad near many trains! Come check it out.

Wow! Wow, wow, wow. This was recommended to me by a Californian vegan who doesn't play about good eats. They claim this to be their favorite all time restaurant and I see why! Everything from atmosphere, service and accommodation for a gluten allergy was amazing -- then each thing we tried seemed to be better than the last. Our first course, mushroom udon (made GF) was perhaps one of the best dishes we'd ever experienced. Then somehow each offering got better, and it wasn't just the sake! I can't recommend the cheesecake or spicy tuna hand roll enough. If the kitchen had not closed I'd be eating those two things all night until they kicked me out. Yum!

Absolute favorites were the bang banh broccoli, japanese sweet potato, and the 1000 layer potatoes. I'm not strictly vegetarian or vegan but I'd definitely go back and get more small plates and drinks to try. Service was smooth and vibe was pretty nice for a Sunday night. Worth going if you want to change someone's mind about what vegetarian and plant based food is! Really great tasting selections.

I'm not vegan, but I must say I appreciate the creativity of this menu. I came in during lunch hours and was welcomed with a lunch special that offered a 3 course menu that I could pick and choose from, and it was 100% with it. Everything executed to perfection but the Udon noodles and and spinach dumplings were the stars of the show. If you happen to be in the city and in the market for good food vegan or not, make sure to stop By and be blown away.

My vegan babies, this is the spot! My experience is from an 11am reservation (brunch) on a Sunday, which was also New Year's Eve. The restaurant itself is fairly large. There's a lot of room and it's very open if that makes sense, I never felt crowded. I really really like the small plate concept. This is a nicer restaurant so it's expensive compared to like... something else but for example a waffle (one) was maybe $17ish. Anyhow, the food was all great and I enjoyed tasting different dishes. The star of the show: bottomless mimosas. If you plan on drinking at least 2 mimosas, you might as well just get bottomless. I will say that service is very slow to refill your drinks and I FELT that they were kind of anxious for me to get out of there~ so whether or not that's true, I don't know but yeah bottomless mimosas!! Would definitely come back!

Perfect place for a vegetarian! Very trendy and cool place! We walked past it several times! When we finally went in we were So pleased . The service was spot on! Yet not overbearing. The vibe was mellow and peaceful! So the food was marvelous! From beginning to end we were delighted. My husband was so pleased being a vegetarian he could have anything on the menu! We had the sushi veggie rolls so so good . The ravioli very good. The fried rice with truffle oil and mushrooms was hands down the Best! A salad enough to share with a small family full and great! Oh the rice sandwich with fried tempora was excellent. If you are a vegetarian this is a Must stop in NYC!

3.5/5 This restaurant is 100% vegan and plant based. The menu had a lot of mushroom based items which I personally don't like as a meat alternative. I liked the Singapore noodles and LOVED the dessert & drinks, I just wasn't blown away by a lot of the dishes. I'd recommend generally for vegan and vegetarian friends. The service was very nice, and we got all of our food very quickly. The restaurant is upscale and on the pricier side.

If you're looking for a delicious vegetarian establishment with creative cuisine that also gives off a truly chic vibe, then look no further than Planta Queen. From when you first step into the restaurant, it has a very scene-y feel to it- it's the type of place that you notice and appreciate the decor and the atmosphere. As a vegetarian, I'll say the menu is fantastic- it's got a wide breadth of choices, all delicious from what I've tried. And it's nice to be able to go to a restaurant where I don't need to be constrained- I could order anything here, and that adds to the experience. That being said, I have eaten here with multiple non-vegetarians who enjoyed themselves as much as me, and weren't left wanting for meat at the end of the meal. Tasty food is tasty food, at the end of the day. Game recognizes game. I'm not sure if that's the correct usage of that phrase, but it just feels right. The last time I ate at Planta Queen, I had the bang bang broccoli (like a gorgeously made tempura with a sweet/spicy/savory kick), the crispy gyoza (a unique, tasty play on typical vegetarian dumplings), and the Japanese sweet potato dish (if you like sweet potato, kabocha, or butternut squash, you will adore this dish). I would highly recommend all of them. From my experience at this restaurant, it seems to me that nearly everything is good- you probably can't go wrong with any choice off the menu.

Never knew I could love vegan food so much. The crispy rice is genuinely mindblowing and tastes exactly like sushi (how do they do it?!?), other standouts are the beets & guac and the crispy broccoli, but honestly everything I've had here has been amazing. Service is also amazing and waiters are very attentive and great with dietary restrictions! Ambience is cute and dimly lit but packed - make sure you make a reservation as the place is popular.

As a non-vegan, I found the food at this place to be delicious! I especially enjoyed the "lychee please" cocktail; it was so refreshing. My favorites were the cold noodles and the fried cauliflower. The service was amazing, and the ambiance was great!

Wasn't wowed but wasn't disappointed either. The decor is really nice and if you can get one of those slightly bigger booth type tables it can get pretty cozy We ordered plenty of things. I started with their matcha and unfortunately wasn't impressed. I should give a disclaimer though that I'm extremely picky with matcha Scallion pancake was 5/5. Loved the sauces it came with The bang bang broccoli you can't really mess with. Amazing dish as well Their best dish was prolly the 1000 layer potatoes. Elegant and indulgent :) Kimchi egg fried rice was nice and flavorful. Really hearty plate I wasn't really impressed with the lettuce wraps - it was a really 'flat' flavor for my taste. Nothing exciting about it. I also didn't enjoy the Dan Dan noodles - reason could be probably due to the fact that I do eat meat and this version of Dan Dan just couldn't match up. The coconut milk was too much of a reach for me, if that makes sense The Singapore noodles wasn't my favorite but it wasn't bad tbh. Again, the flavors may have been slightly monotonous for me. I definitely recommend this place for vegans. Amazing service and nice servers explaining everything :) Very cute decor as well

As a strongly non-vegan, was very pleasantly suprised. The food was packed with flavour, dare I say better than a lot of other non-vegan restaurants. However, they are strict with their vegan policy so do not carry non-vegan cake outside cake for any celebration. Cheers

Had dinner at Planta with a local friend at his favorite vegan restaurant, a great choice for both of us. Excited about the vegetarian options, since I was visiting and a new customer, I asked my friend to took charge and ordered a variety of dishes for us to sample. While some were over sauced and a bit salty, overall, the textures, flavors, and quality were excellent. Cozy venue, tight seating, but exceptional and speedy service. Despite the crowd, reservations ensured a smooth experience. The mocktail, initially thought to be generic ginger beer, didn't stand out. Still, I'd definitely return - a great spot for gatherings in Manhattan. Looking forward to exploring other locations.

A fun, trendy spot for plant-based eats -- stopped by with a friend on a weeknight evening and it was surprisingly busy. The ambiance is a dim-lit vibe, perfect for either a date night or dinner with friends. I loved trying the vegan concepts, and my real standout was the Spicy Tuna roll with watermelon as the tuna! It was SO unique and flavorful, and would honestly come back just to try more of their sushi.

We had the "spicy tuna" and firecracker roll, and the mushroom udon. I def preferred "spicy tuna" over the firecracker, but the other people in my group found both equally excellent. the mushroom udon was also creamy and delicious. The sushi rice was soft and wasnt overwhelmed with vinegar. Perfect sushi rice. The food arrived really quickly, and the wait was nonexistent (we came on a Saturday at 10:30). The best vegan place I've been to so far!

This is one of our favorite vegan places in the city. We take our vegetarian enthusiastic out of town guests here for sure during their visit. They have such an extensive plant-based menu ranging from sushi, chilled raw, dumplings, wok and noodle dishes which leaves you with such varied experience. One of my fav is Bang bang broccoli and Dan dan noodles! Bang bang broccoli has that hit to start off your meal at high note. Dan dan noodles is spicy and has a bit of creamy texture too. These two are definitely one of my go to during every visit. I love the rainbow rolls as well - it's peanut sauce is such a bomb. The cocktails are super interesting too - love their Lych Please, such a fruity drink. Just love the ambiance here - such good vibes. It could be loud sometimes but love the modern, hip decor. The service is usually quick but they don't rush you as well. The prices are a bit on high end though.

I had high hopes based on my visit to the Chicago location, where the waitress excellently explained the menu and offered superb recommendations. However, the Nomad location fell short in clarity and helpfulness regarding the menu. While the food was good, it didn't quite live up to my expectations. My favorite dish was the Udon Noodles with truffle mushroom cream. I'd totally revisit Nomad, fingers crossed the server's menu expertise improves next time!

We took a vegan friend here for a luxe plant-based birthday dinner and everyone loved it. I don't eat a lot of meat, but still tend to be a vegan restaurant skeptic. Planta Queen Nomad upped the game and blew us away from the opening bites until we left two hours later. Decor is glam, vibe is lively, noise level is the good kind of NYC Friday night, service is friendly and efficient, cocktails are stellar, and the food was amazing from start to finish. The ahi watermelon nigiri and unagi eggplant sushi were great starters: beautifully plated, perfect taste profiles like their ahi and unagi namesakes, and so so good. We were off to a spectacular start. The nightly dumplings special was super tasty; tbh I can't remember all of the veggies and spices, but the Friday special gets you you 10 for $20 and all were quickly devoured. The baby bok choy from the wok and the Thai tofu lettuce wraps were both full of flavors. Truffle rice was completely fine, maybe the most basic item we chose. The chilly crisp tofu app was a bit of a misnomer, as it was cold soft tofu with taro sticks on top and kimchi on the side. I might prefer this to be fried, agadashi tofu style, but oh well. The 1,000 layer crispy potatoes app was creatively excellent, with a "caviar" and sour cream topping. Matcha cheesecake with berry compote and coconut whip - with a sparkler for the birthday girl - was a great end to the meal. Cocktails were all excellent, but my Herb Your Enthusiasm was the beautiful and tasty crowd pleaser: Thai chili-infused tequila, lime, pineapple, mint, and Thai basil. We will definitely return. Prices are Manhattan high, but for a birthday or other celebration the experience is definitely worth it.

In a word: MAGNIFICENT. Was in NYC last weekend to visit our daughter -- my wife and daughter had eaten here before and they insisted we go here for dinner Friday night. Excellent choice! We had been drinking all afternoon at Bar Verde, so no drinks were required. But definitely needed to order lots of food to soak up all the tequila. Started with Bang Bang Broccoli (eventually ordered a second one of these), 1,000 Layer Crispy Potatoes, Japanese Sweet Potato, Udon Noodles, Truffle Fried Rice, and Crispy Gyoza. Loved the way the dishes were brought out to us one at a time, as they were completed -- not all at once. Everything was AMAZING -- really, really, really good. Wonderful flavors and presentation. And of course 100% vegan, which my wife and I appreciate. If we had one of these in San Diego, we would visit at least once a month. (Not willing to fight the traffic to get up to the PLANTA in LA.) As it is, we'll be back next trip to NYC!

Food was ok. Happy to have it. Everything came out at once and was not properly paced. I am a fit person and the tables were so cramped we had to move our table so I could go to the restroom. Restaurant was pretty loud, but the lighting was beautiful. Get the spicy tuna roll (so good) and just know that the service is sort of comparable to a diner.

Ambiance is beautiful with great lighting and great minimal color scheme The bar is also very nice and contains anything and everything. I will say we had some of the tastiest cocktails I've had in a long time The food was vegetarian and vegan. Everything pictured other than the dumplings were also gluten free. All were super tasty but the standouts were the bang bang broccoli and the corn dumplings! So delicious. We also had a macha cheesecake which was outrageous but consumed prior to picture opportunity Our servers were fantastic and attentive and made excellent recommendations

Excellent, excellent, excellent! Was in NY last week and made reservations for me, my wife, and our teen. Was pleasantly surprised by the ambiance. Felt seen and taken care of by our server (Danny, I believe). The recommendations were excellent. The food was simply out of this world, and the dessert made my soul smile. What we ordered: Starters 1. Baked crab roll 2. Bang Bang chicken 3. Bao slider Main: 1. Singapore noodles 2. Truffle fried rice The noodles were amazing, and the truffle rice was other worldly. Dessert June Specials - it was a blueberry/lemon desert. My description does not do it justice. All I can say is order it and thank me later. I have six words to sum it ups Go, go, go, in a hurry! We plan to visit the other locations when we are visiting the cities where they are located.

I have been to Planta Queen on several occasions, most recently celebrating the pregnancy of one of my close friends and mentors! It's one of the first restaurants I actually went to New York City, and I even went there for my 21st birthday because I enjoyed the food (and creative drinks) so much! As a vegetarian, I'm often disappointed by vegan and vegetarian restaurants, but this one really starts the standard. Each dish is packed with flavor, interesting texture, and there is so much variety on the menu. My go-tos are the crispy gyoza, bang bang broccoli, and my favorite roll, the torched and pressed!! I love the ambience created in Planta. It's perfect for a fancy occasion, celebration, or just getting a nice meal after work! The wait staff are always so helpful in making recommendations and pointing out special items on the menu! Overall, it's such a nice experience and a 10/10 meal for vegan/vegetarian Asian cuisine!

1/1 Ambience; 1/2 Food; 1/1 Service; 1/1 Value Even on an early Monday evening, Planta was in full swing and very busy. The restaurant is spacious, but it can feel really crowded given how close together tables are. There is a quieter lower level that feels more intimate, which can be requested for in reservations. The restaurant itself is beautiful. My friend and I opted for the unlimited maki rolls available on Mondays ($27/pp), which includes the crispy rices as well. We got the crispy rice, torched and pressed, spicy tuna roll, rainbow roll, baked crab roll, and dragon roll. The crispy rice, torched and pressed, spicy tuna and baked crab rolls were amazing, particularly the rices. These were flavorful, savory and delectable! While we didn't like the rainbow roll and dragon roll much, the others were so good we'll definitely be back! I'm neither vegetarian nor vegan, but everything the food was so good that the seafood won't be missed. For $27/pp for unlimited maki rolls, this deal is unbeatable! Note that they send out as many plates as there are people in the party (e.g. if there are two people, you can order two dishes at a time), but they rotate the dishes for you. The staff was also very friendly and enthusiastic about the food, and the food came out very fast. Overall, this was a great experience!

There are some extremely delicious meals to be had here, as well as wonderful drinks. The ambiance is dark but relaxing downstairs, a lot more upbeat and loud upstairs. We loved the bang bang broccoli, the spinach dumplings, the crispy gyozas. The sushi was also delicious. The Singapore noodles were a little dry and the cauliflower meal wasn't good at all but everything else was perfect and the drinks were all delicious-- especially the one with ginger. Def recommend it and can't wait to come back to try more things bc the service was also great.

My first visit here and it was memorable. Beautiful decor, ambiance and service. Although this is a vegan restaurant, the names of the dishes kept me checking. We tried several dishes. Let's start with the Spicy "tuna" Hand roll. OMG! Just this dish alone was worth the price of admission. The flavors blended very well and melted in your mouth. Honestly I could have stopped there it was so good! The cold peanut noodles were seasoned wonderfully but I needed a little soy sauce. Once I added that, perfection! Bang bang broccoli was exquisite and the sauce was finger licking good! There is a dish that was a Chinese style bun with crispy mushroom inside. I am VERY particular about mushroom dishes. This one? Out of this world! Lastly, I had a cucumber cocktail that had mint on the side, that was to die for. If you were visiting Manhattan, put this restaurant on your list. they have other locations as well. A+ all the way!

As a meat eater dining here for two of my friends birthday lunch I was really enjoying the delicious food and was surprised at all the yummy options. From The moment you walk in the ambience is wonderful. I felt like I was transported to an exclusive resort somewhere in the pacific only this place is extremely inclusive and the staff is amazing from the hostess, to the bartenders to the waiters and even the cooks as you pass by you can see them. Everyone looks happy and it's shows and you can even taste the joy. I look forward to brining my family here.

I'm not even vegan and I'm always amazed when eating some of the food here. The torched & pressed sushi and dan dan noodles are my favorite things off the menu. The service the last couple times have been great with refills and bringing out the food. The inside of the restaurant is also well spaced and having a larger party of 5-6 hasn't been a problem with their booth seating.

The food here was absolutely amazing - especially being entirely vegan, I was so impressed with the quality and flavor! Super fine dining vibes which I loved. If you're going I'd recommend making a reservation since it's super hard to get a table.

10/10! I actually dream about this meal and am so excited that there are other locations. PLANTA people: please open a location in Philly. Super fun vibe, food comes out as it's ready. 3 of us shared multiple items: a few sushi rolls (as good if not better than traditional sushi!), bang bang broccoli, and truffle fried rice. It was also disco dumpling night - they offer 2 off-menu dumplings. We tried the fried caramelized onion one with a garlic sauce - I could have eaten all 10 of these myself. Run to this location! Make a reservation first.
