Ok this is really good

Usually not a fan of these junk-veg places but this was really tasty and seemed like decent quality for fast food. Worth a try.

Good, but...

The restaurant was understaffed, which led to a 20 minute wait for the food, not a huge issue but unexpected in a burger joint.

The food was alright, but expensive. I'm getting less impressed with beyond/impossible patties.

Like giving a caveman a Dorito

I live in basically the middle of nowhere. Most food I eat is relegated to home cooking or traveling several towns over if I ever want to eat out. I'm visiting the city for a weekend. Oh my god I didn't know we were at this level. Genuinely some of the greatest plant meat food I've ever had. It's honestly a crime against humanity I have to go back and live in a place where this doesn't exist.

Awesome sandwich, awesome fries

I loved how the chicken sandwich tasted! The fries were nice and crunchy too with fluffy insides. Had a cookies and cream shake and it was good, but not the highlight.

Convenient & standard vegan-style fast food

I’ve been here a handful of times over the course of the few years I’ve lived in NYC and I go back-and-forth between thinking it’s good or thinking it’s overrated and I could easily make the same things at home

Excellent tasty burger and bun

One of the best vegan burgers I’ve had! Loved the bun, ingredients and taste! Fried were a little too fried for my taste, will try a different fry option next time. Burger was the best and I will be back again soon. Highly recommend!!

Amazing Burgers in New York!

I absolutely loved the burgers at Plnta Burger — they were incredibly delicious! I enjoyed them so much that I came back a second time during my stay in New York City. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for amazing burgers!

best burger place in the world

Can't say it enough - Plant Burger is the best burger/fast food place on this planet (ok maybe there is a better one in a place that we'd not visited). We visited different locations in NYC and compared it to other places like this in different countries - we think that PB is the most delicious place by far. No real opponents in sight. Hope to be back asap. If there is a better one let us know 💚

Decent lunch spot near Madison Square Park

Food was fine but nothing great, what you would expect for fast food. There is outdoor seating on Broadway this time of year. Good location and fair price for the area.

Best fast food

I discovered this place two years ago and for me it still is the best vegan fast food ever. The mushroom bbq burger is soooo good and the fries and the swirl shake were also delicious

Simple fast food

This is probably a vegan version of Macdonalds. It's great to have a place where all burgers are vegan. I didn't enjoy the fries, too oily and not crispy. The burger was good, fairly simple.

Great Vegan Burgers

Had a patty melt and the sweet potato fries. Really enjoyed as I don’t eat fast food often. Tried a sample of their new hot and was quite impressed. Loved the location near my hotel in Flat Iron district

Pros: Burgers, Fries, Nice friendly staff
