Fantastic Variety

They have a very nice variety of menu options. There were three of us so I got to try the crab dip, the bam bam broccoli, the mushroom pizza, the spicy tuna sushi (not spicy), the beet/ tuna stack and the brownie with ice cream. All fantastic. Love to have options and they def provide them.

10/10 Plant Based food

Planta is single handedly one of the best plant based restaurants I have been to. Everything on the menu has quality taste and ingredients to match presentation. The setting of planta is fine dining with outdoor seating available.I can’t say anything bad about any item on the menu. Highlights are the sushi and pizza. Bang bang broccoli is insanely good and the carbonara is the best vegan pasta I’ve tasted.

Pros: Every item is delicious! , Vegan sooshi , Great location and outdoor seating

25 minutes and nobody acknowledged

The place wasn’t even that busy. I was the first customer when they reopened at 5 pm and no one came to help me.

Pros: Some good house music tracks

Cons: No many options, They act as if sining in is a personal win, Be ready to wait!

This place SLAPS

This is the only expensive restaurant I think is worth the price tbh. All dishes are served easily shareable.

The dessert can very much be skipped imo. Overpriced for what it is.

I love love LOVE the carbonara and the palm crab dip. My partner likes the pizza (more of an oven fired bread with toppings than pizza imo, but it is some very good bread).

Pros: So so good

Cons: Desserts are $10+ and not great, Busy, Expensive

Great place for some quality vegan options

Excellent menu with large variety across different cuisines. Very decent portion sizes. The Habibi Bowl was excellent and so were the Dragon Rolls. The PLANTA burger was delicious as was the chocolate brownie dessert and the peach/lychee/vanilla swirl ice cream. Service was excellent.

Great vegan restaurant

Great selections, perfectly prepared and very filling. We went with friends who are not vegan but allergic to fish and were so excited to eat the sushi because normally it is cross contaminated even if vegetarian. We are vegans and eat here whenever we can.

Yummmmmmm

This is one of the few upscale vegan places in the DC area, and its worth the hike to Bethesda. Cool 60s-mod ambiance and super friendly staff. Make a reservation because it gets very busy for dinner. The menu feels a bit unfocused with an assortment of dishes from sushi to pasta, but everything looked great. For apps, we tried the bao buns (excellent) and the crab dip. The crab dip was good but a little underwhelming. For mains we had the Bianca and Hawaiian pizzas, which were both excellent. The cocktails were also beautiful and tasty. Would come back!!!

Pros: All vegan all the time, Upscale ambiance , Delicious

Cons: Expensive, Some dishes not as good as others

Amazing food and service but bring your gold card

The food and service were exceptionally good. But, OMG the prices! Great for a special occasion, but most folks probably can't eat there every day.

Pros: Excellent food, Excellent service, Great location

Cons: Prices, prices, prices

A must vist

If you haven’t been you must go. Went two Sundays in a row and found it to be one of the best plant based options in the area. I enjoyed Sunday brunch, especially the quiche.

Perfect vegan spot

We were so excited to try this new vegan restaurant! First off, it’s a beautiful place. The interior of the restaurant is classy without being stuffy and has a gorgeous design. The service was amazing and the meal was well timed out. PLANTA finally nailed it for an upscale vegan restaurant that still makes delicious food and doesn’t worry about fancy plating.

We tried the bang bang broccoli, cauliflower tots, chickn mushroom salad, carbonara, and brownie with ice cream.

My favorite had to be the bang bang broccoli. The crispy texture was incredible and the peanut sauce was super flavorful. The salad was surprisingly delicious (don’t skip the salads!). The only thing we weren’t crazy about was the pasta carbonara as it had a coconut flavor that was a little too strong. The warm brownie with ice cream and fudge sauce was decadent and soul-warming.

The cocktails were also very good🍾

We can’t wait to return and try the pizzas!

Pros: Classy atmosphere , Delicious food

Cons: Sparkling water costs $8.50

A little pricy but good food!

Ordered the Hawaiian pizza, spaghetti carbonara and cauliflower tots for takeout. I didn't love the tots, but pizza and spaghetti were great. Excited to have a place like this in Bethesda!

Wonderful food

Inventive menu with varied choices. Tried the Caesar salad, crab dip, spaghettini carbonara, bang bang broccoli, chicken fried mushroom bao bun, and cheesecake. Everything was delicious — the favorite for the table was the Caesar salad with tempeh bacon and pickled onion — so good! The place was packed; make a reservation.

Pros: All vegan, Fine dining, Friendly staff

WOW

Vegan fine dining! A little pricey, but honestly could’ve been higher. Great food and atmosphere. We loved everything we tried and the staff was super friendly! Our waiter recommended the bang bang broccoli…we were hesitant at first, because it seemed like there were more interesting things to try, but so glad we listened to him! Bang bang broccoli and avocado lime tartare were definitely our faves. And that NY style cheesecake!

Pros: Friendly staff, Delicious food, 100% vegan

Cons: Somewhat expensive (fine dining), but worth it!
