Brilliant! - Edit
We are passing through on our way home to Tennessee. I love the space, the food, and the people. My omnivore husband said, “I would eat this burrito everyday!” Highly recommend. I wish I could stay here for days and try everything.

Wonderful food, cozy environment - Edit
It was so nice going to a restaurant and being able to order anything off the menu. We got the memela, burrito, Chile relleno, and churros and chocolate with dulce de leche. I would recommend all of them, it was a lot of food though, good for leftovers.

amazing - Edit
i don’t think i’m capable of rating a fully vegan place less than 5 stars, but the food here was incredible. we got the elote to start (my only complain is that it needed salt), then i had the burrito and my fiancé had the fajita bowl. for dessert we shared the churros. i also got an iced peppermint mocha latte. i preferred the burrito over the fajita bowl but both were delicious! i also loved the concept of choosing which menu we wanted to eat from inside the market. our server was also very sweet and funny, i wish i remembered her name!

Super yummy mexican! - Edit
Had enough time to stop by Plant City, and chose this restaurant for an esrly lunch. Definitely on the pricier end, and the food is not authentic, but highly satisfying nonetheless! The drinks at Plant City are also stellar, love the layering of different flavors (Strawberry Matcha and Blueberry London Fog are pictured). Burrito was large and the strangest shape (see photo) but hit the spot, guac was 14 dollars but a generous portion. I need to try the other restaurants hosted in Plant City next time I’m in town! Highly recommend.

Upscale Mexican - Edit
While it is mexican inspired, a lot of the dishes are pretty standard and nothing is that special. They have the standard tofu scrambles, fajitas, burritos, bowls, etc. The nachos were really tasty and also very filling.

Pros: Everything is vegan!
Cons: Expensive for what you get, Small menu

Unimaginative - Edit
The location is nice. It's a interesting part of Providence but usually too touristy for me. The service was great. The food however is unimaginative. I had the Memela. It was messy and had to eat it like it was a bowl of cabbage and mushrooms and overly creamy. It was pretty blah. The flavors were overwhelmed by the cream sauce and not particulary satisfying. I would not go back.

Ok food, not very flavorful - Edit
Good Tlayuda. The jackfruit and cashew cultured crema were delicious. Don’t recommend the quesadillas, pretty flavorless.

Best meal in a long time - Edit
This truly was a fantastic dinner. We started with the loaded nachos, and then had the Tacos Durado which I cannot stop raving about. Others had the Quesadillas and the Stuffed Poblano peppers. Everyone loved their selections. Looking forward to dining at the other vegan restaurants within PlantCity!

Not Mexican Enough - Edit
Besina is by far the weakest of the restaurants within the Plant City complex. I say this based on having eaten at each of the options several times. This review is prompted by my visit for lunch today.
Read moreThe nachos would have been okay (Garden Grille does them better or Plant Pub in Boston) if they had been warm rather than cold. And my wife says that the chips were too thick.
The burrito looked fabulous on the plate, but the crema+mole sauces were really sweet, which I found completely off-putting for a burrito. I tried instead to eat just the filling, but it was completely bland -- depending, I guess, on the outside sauces for flavor.
The entire meal was a big disappointment and I hope I now remember not to ever eat here again. We will stick to the other options at Plant City.

Everything is vegan here - Edit
There’s Italian style and Mexico style of vegan cuisine on this floor , it’s locate at the second floor of plant city , they don’t have smoothies or the burger salad plate it’s downstairs ; if you want to eat different cuisine from different vegan restaurants at this corner it is recommended to order direct on their app then you can sit on the common indoor or outdoor area to enjoy your take out. This restaurant is Italian style vegan restaurant located at second floor and you can order in person and dine in on a booth😄

Great food - Edit
I probably should have gotten the chili relleno because nothing else I had was spicy but still very good. Creams and cheeses were all fresh just should have brought some hot sauce 🤣 churros were delicious-tiramisu was just a dense caramel like cake so don’t expect a real tiramisu. Nice atmosphere/attentive service.

Just finished an incredible lunch at Besina. Everything was delicious! We share the elotes, my partner had the fajita bowl, and I had the quesadilla. We finished it off with some churros and chocolate. Every dish knocked it out of the park! Highly recommend!

Chile Poblanos so delicious! The butternut squash filling with walnuts & cashew crema excellent. Elote was some of the best I have ever had. Great flavor. Salad veggies all super fresh. Will definitely come back.
