It’s definitely important to check the opening hours in advance. - Edit
I arrived around 2:30 p.m., but I was told it was almost last order, so I quickly ordered only the chia pudding.
Read moreThe restaurant had been closed when I visited the day before as well, and even after the last-order time, several people came in but couldn’t order.
It’s definitely important to check the opening hours in advance.
The chia pudding was delicious, so I’d love to go back — and next time I want to try their meals as well.

Always a great experience - Edit
I’ve been here several times and always love the food! The staff are very friendly, the food is delicious, and even the drinks and desserts are amazing. It can get quite busy in the evenings especially on weekends, so I recommend making a reservation in advance.

Seouls most popular vegan cafe - Edit
I have been coming to Plant since 2015 since they were at their first location being cake-centered. This location is still as cozy at is was as in the beginning: great food, great staff, great cakes. There is wifi and quite a few power outlets. Itaweon is a vibe for sure, so I am happy Plant is located here. All the food I have had here through the years has been delicious.

100% vegan - Edit
Nice 100% vegan café and restaurant. They have a variety of vegan cakes and desserts, wraps, salads, and hot dishes.
Read moreA really lovely place! I didn’t enjoy my dish, but it was probably just not the right choice for my taste. I’d definitely come back to try something else.

We went for the most authentic looking items on the menu including some noodles and a rice meal. There were lots of Western-type meals that looked nice too but when in Korea.

Pretty good - Edit
Served mostly western food. I had a mushroom burger 🍔 and coconut cream pie. The burger came with homemade veggie patty (almost like black beans) layered with cream mushrooms. The size of the burger is like kids sized, very small for the price paid. Count cream pie was good. Will try other items on the menu.

Awful service - Edit
Closes at 10 and at 8:45 I am told kitchen will close at 9. Ok
Read moreMenu seems quite simple, ingredients wise as well very basic. Ok
Choose a bowl and they don't have it. Ok
Choose another one and I am told that they don't have the beans. Ok, what will you replace the beans with? "Nothing, you could add ingredients but we would charge you extra" ???
How can customer service be this bad? You don't have an ingredient that's easily replaceable by another, you want the client to pay and simply ingredients be missing and are not ready to offer a solution? Left as there are many other vegan places close by
Cons: Customer service

Yum yum yum - Edit
Delicious food - everything we tried was great - especially the moussaka and meatball rice bowl. We also had the chilli cheese burger, tofu with buffalo sauce and chilli cheese fries. We had way too much food, but everything was so good. Also great to find some local cider available - we tried two delicious flavours.

Go-to place in Seoul, very close to subway! - Edit
I absolutely love this restaurant. I’ve been in Seoul for a little over two weeks, and I think I’ve come here 4 times already. It’s very close to the Itaewon subway station, so very convenient if you live near the subway! I have tried many different entrees, all have been great. My favorites are definitely the mushroom pasta (SO delicious and creamy!!), and the hummus tempeh bowl. But honestly, everything I’ve gotten has been great!
Read moreIt’s very foreigner friendly, half the staff are not Korean and they all seem to speak English. They have a full English menu as well. If you are staying in Seoul you NEED to try this place out at least once!

Nice western style restaurant - Edit
This is a good place if you are looking for a vegan western restaurant with a lot a choices in a cosy room. We ordered the tempeh and hummus wrap, onion rings, tempeh, sweet potatoes, lemon cake and forest cake. We recommend the forest cake and the wrap!
Read moreI really appreciated the various cakes, which were sweet and with big portions. I wish I could try all of them:)
The staff was also very friendly.

One of the best vegan restaurants in Seoul! - Edit
This restaurant is so good that you could drop it in to pretty much any city in the world and it would do well. The food is packed full of flavour with generous portions and the coffee is lovely! The desserts are also amazing so definitely try and leave room for one (or more!).
Read moreThere is another branch in Hongdae area that has a slightly reduced menu. I would give both a 5*!

Read moreBest 'fast food' in Seoul!!?
The chilli cheese fries are addictive it's like they put some special powder that makes your mouth water and want more and more, the wrap and burger are very good as well as the cauli wings it'd been too long.
The 'African peanut stew' is slightly diff to what I'm used to from this style with the cauliflower seeming like a different choice making it feel slightly more Indian potentially, as well as it not being nutty enough.
Good vibes and nice staff but deserts don't stick out or blow me away.
Would love if they did extravagant milkshakes (I miss them and I feel they'd fit perfectly here) .
Old review
They have nice filling tasty portions. I had the mushroom burger and the chilli cheese fries both very nice, very busy but staff were accommodating.

Went 3 times over a 10 day visit in Seoul. First place anyone in Seoul should seek out for vegan food. Great menu with lots of options, good amount of GF options. Chill vibes and even better food. Some of my favorites were the chili cheese fries, buffalo popcorn chick’n, and the mushroom burger. Great dessert as well with GF desserts.

Very good food, chill vibe - Edit
The wraps are perfection: thick, juicy and stuffed with veggies and other awesome goodies. I had the 'steak and beans' and the humus wrap and couldn't decide which was better because they were both so damn good!
Read moreThe cakes are a different kind of awesome. This is just dangerous. I've eaten cake two days in a row now... They're just way too good.

Must-visit place for fast-food lovers - Edit
This is a great café! Any food you order there is top notch! At first, I visited the spot on the Itaewon and ordered Caesar wrap, fries and Pumpkin spice latte.
Read moreThe wrap was wonderful. Inside there were croutons, greens, nugget pieces and amazing dressing. And chips to boot.
Two other times I visited this café in Yeonnam where I tried Chili cheeseburger, Falafel wrap and Spaghetti with «Meat balls» and everything was super delicious.
The staff at both cafes speak good English, so there are no problems with ordering and specifying ingredients if you need.

Good food, chill spot. - Edit
We ordered the mushroom burger with fries and the tofu caesar wrap. The mushroom burger had good taste but was impossible to eat with your hands as it fell apart - my partner had to use a knife and fork. The wrap was STUFFED, like a good wrap should be. Very happy with it. We had a side salad which was just leaves and a few seeds, so not really worth it. We were so full that we weren't able to try any of the delicious looking desserts, sadly!
