convenient and tasty - Edit
Love having an all vegan option in carlsbad village! It’s a great, easy option for pick up or dining in. I went all the time when they first opened but I feel like I’ve had some inconsistent orders as of lately so I’ve found myself going less. Went back for the first time in a few months and we weren’t disappointed. I was happy to get there in time to try one of their breakfast burritos. It was more of a wrap than what I would go for if i was craving a burrito- but delish nonetheless

Perfect Lunch Spot - Edit
The Plot Express is a lunchtime delight! The outdoor seating adds a fun vibe to the experience. The menu boasts plenty of options, all perfectly portioned. The brunch egg burrito stole the show with its delectable combination of flavors but all the options were delicious. The Cubano was another standout option! A must-try spot for those seeking a perfect balance of taste and atmosphere!

Unique Take on Shawarma - Edit
Chickpea shawarma bowl was tasty and filling. Good portion, but for an $18 salad it better be!

Not great, but nice to have a vegan option in the area - Edit
We were excited to try this place! Ordered the gyros, Cuban, and truffle
Read morefries. Everything was underwhelming/just okay. The fries were tasty (didn’t love the cheese sauce though). None of it was worth going back for, but we still appreciate vegan options in the area. The people working there were super friendly & helpful!
Pros: All vegan!
Cons: Flavors weren’t great

Nice vibe - Edit
This location has a smaller menu than Oceanside location, and it’s nestled in a group of shops in old Carlsbad. I had the Crunchwrap and I was impressed with the flavor.

Caesars Salad! - Edit
What a nice all vegan spot!! I was hungry for a salad and the Caesars Salad with Chikn was delicious. The Chikn was amazing. Best I’ve had in a while. Several items on their menu. Wish I could sample all of them.

Incredible Caesar Salad - Edit
I ended up eating here a few days in a row for lunch just for the “chicken” Caesar salad because it was so good. I can’t speak for the other menu items as I didn’t try them but everything looked amazing. The tofu on the salad was cooked so perfectly and the lemon and pickled onions made the salad so tasty. I will definitely be back here in the future when visiting again!

A great new vegan option in Carlsbad - Edit
The Plot Express addresses the main problem with the Plot restaurant in Oceanside - not being open on Mondays and Tuesday! Seriously, this new location is great. Same great quality and service (Maria is the best!) as the Oceanside location, but a different menu. If you are hungry while traveling between LA and San Diego this is a great option as it’s an easy on/off from the I-5.
Read morePros: Great quality!, Service.
Cons: Parking can be a challenge

Carlsbad's Plot Express - Edit
We tried Carlsbad's newest plant-based eatery, the Plot Express last night and it was fantastic. Great food and nice courtyard atmosphere. The restaurant does not have indoor dining; however, the central courtyard fills this void. Plenty of outdoor seats are available in a nice central courtyard. I had the Cubano sandwich along with the amazing truffle fries. My wife had the Taco salad bowl which she loved. If you are looking for a quality vegan restaurant you must give the Plot Express a try. Note this is a spinoff of the Plots main indoor dining restaurant in Oceanside CA. Which you must try as well.
