This was the first time we have been to laughing planet. My wife and I are always looking for a place to get clean food, and we have found it. The cafe has a great atmosphere and an easy vib. Kids are welcome and have a place of there own. My wife had the harvest bowl and I had the Korean BBQ bowl. Portions were good and Flavor out of this world. I say don't fear clean food. Try it you'll like it read more

Came in on a Sunday and the vibe is really chill. Staff keeps the place intact so plenty of open seating. Order at the register then find a seat. Everything on the menu is sustainable and earth-friendly. Good variations of green juice/smoothie as well read more

Veggie Quesadilla - where are the veggies? We ordered vegan chili not many veggies. Same with mushroom taco small bites. Very skimpy on veggies and there choices are not cheap. I wish I would have taken more pics. read more

Ordered Bollywood bowl & everything was undercooked. Never ordering from here again. Boyfriend ordered something else brown rice wasn't even cooked. Don't order from here. read more

This restaurant has outside seating and they opened up the inside to the nice spring air. When we arrived, there were several customers, but not too many. We ordered easily and quickly. We found our own table, after paying up front, and waiting a moderate amount of time. Kids are welcome. I ordered a bowl with quinao, tempeh, kale, pumpkin seeds, etc., and it was very healthy. The berry smoothie was excellent too. My friend loved his burrito and mango smoothie. The menu is full of healthy options and somewhat creative combinations. It is easy for a vegetarian to find several things. I would love to try more dishes and highly recommend this restaurant as a healthy option to anywone, based on my first experience there. read more

Cuban burrito for life!! They know how to make plantains too-- when they're dark and sweet! Closest thing to Cuban inspired food this far West. Also, their habanero salsa is actually spicy and packs so much heat you'll start drooling. Or crying, depending on the person. Service is always amazing, despite the insanely busy atmosphere everyone is always smiling and more than happy to provide answers to any questions or offers any recommendations. Food is always prepared well and warm when it comes out. Cute interior decor (especially the weird little dinosaurs and the Red Sox clock!) Prices, I think, could afford to be more competitive, but overall this place has always been a pleasant experience with satisfying meals. read more

Sumac Salad and Spinach Lentil Soup - perfect and great place for the whole family! And when I say whole family, there were at least 15 of us in various age ranges from 66 to 9 that walked through the door. No problem for them - everyone was happy! 21 February and here I am again - I'm having a Korean ball with tofu my friend is having a Korean ball with beef and OMG - please people really know how to take care of you and feed you healthy and the staff is so great! Can't say enough good things about this place - still five stars as far as I'm concerned! read more

I have always loved their food and their service. Plus they have vegan gluten free cookies!!!! Win win.

For local and sustainable flavors, this whole-in-the-wall is a gem. It sits directly across the street from Sierra Hall on the UNR campus, catering to vegetarians and vegans. The menu includes meat options, but all meats are from free-range sources. read more

Absolutely love the variety of their menu in both local locations. Vegan, gluten free, and paleo options+ good ok' hearty meat you can add to pretty much any dish. I love the versatility of the bowls and burritos and they always exceed expectation. Definitely give this place a try, it's pretty much the same price as McDonald's. The Bubba Burrito is my boyfriends go-to and I opt for the Comfort bowl with all the vegan options for my allergies. read more

This is just what my body needed!! A great vegetarian meal. Wonderful flavors. New to Reno and this will become a go to place!

Defiantly my favorite place to eat in Reno! I love the highway to kale salad and vegan quesadillas. The staff is super awesome, we enjoy visiting with Tyler when we stop in. I appreciate their sanitation standards during this whole pandemic and will continue to support this business! read more

Absolutely LVE LPC! I always buy more than one entree. It's 100% healthy & delicious. Always feel great about prices, quality & flavor combinations. read more

I try to eat healthy when eating out...which usually means a boring salad...but WOW, this place offers a very refreshing relief from boring! Since finding this gem, I now go here at least once a week, if not twice for lunch. When I feel carnivorous, their paleo bowl is the bomb! Sometimes I order double meat...what the heck. When I feel like going plant based....their Harvest Bowl rocks it. They have rotating daily soups which makes the menu different each time so that's always kinda fun. Bonus points that it comes out right after you order so it's like a tasty snack before the bowl comes out. Very gratifying when showing up hangry after a hard morning's work. They also have a weekly rotating bowl recipe which are always d%^n good. I seriously haven't had a bowl I haven't liked yet. But soup and a bowl can add up dollar wise, so only advise if A) super hungry or B) felling like a baller:) Enjoy! read more

This review is for the Labor Day weekend visit. We had Bubba Burrito, Cheese & Pico, Highway to Kale Salad, the Cuban, and smoothies are all fresh tasting. 5 Stars This branch is laid back, staff is friendly, quick and efficient. 5 Stars Oh yes, puppy friendly as expected. Yelp reviews re. this restaurant is very much accurate on a positive note. Thank you. read more

I haven't been to LP before today, but always wanted to try it. I had the Harvest Bowl- sorry I was hungry and forgot to take a picture. The portion was huge. I ate about 1/2 and took the rest home. The bowl contains tempeh, which I've never had. It was good, but not my favorite food. It added a sweetness to the bowl, which countered the "killer green" sauce served on the side. The yams were just the right doneness. Can veggies be "al dente"? These were. Perfectly done so not to be mushy. I had a hot Moroccan mint tea, perfect on a cold autumn day. Can't wait to return. read more

Fantastic casual eatery with tons of options! I am from San Diego and I am nervous to order a burrito outside the city limits, but the Cuban burrito caught my eye and I am so glad I indulged. This burrito is unlike anything I've had before--it is the perfect combo of salty and sweet, and filling without being heavy. I went for the works and had vegan sour cream and guac added to my burrito, but I'm confident it would have been just as tasty without. The portion size is perfect for the price. The atmosphere is very bright and colorful, but I opted to sit on their shaded patio. Traveling through Reno, I was worried I wouldn't be able to find any vegan options, but this place hits the nail on the head for convenience and flavor. If I am in the area again, I will certainly be back. read more

Laughing Planet - Sorry for the half eaten photo, but had to show off the bomb fillings inside the Cuban burrito. Went for the vegan deluxe option. - Vegetarian Near Me - Reno, Nevada

This place was such a welcome find in our way from the airport to Tahoe. Food was delicious, lots of options for our veggie selves, and the neighborhood was great as well. Will probably go again on our way home! read more

mediocre food, tables were very sticky and clearly wiped with a dirty rag. if you're look for mexican food this wouldn't be the best spot read more

Seriously amazing vegan/vegetarian food! They also have chicken and beef which you can substitute, pretty much everything can be made vegetarian or meat based, how cool is that?! I've been coming to Reno frequently for the past 22 years and a lot of vegetarian restaurants come and go, I think this place might be a new version of a veggie restaurant that closed years and years ago. I don't know for sure, so don't quote me on that. They have tons of new items on the menu weekly/daily and it makes it really fun to visit Reno monthly or more and have new, super healthy delicious veggie foods. The tempeh burrito is super fresh and full of veggies and really clean tasting sauces and additions like guac, etc.. The loaded up quesadilla is a wonderful lunch with a salad. I like the make your own 3 taco plate, you can even get sauteed kale on it, which I think is a cool and healthy addition. I cannot love this more. The only thing this awesome place is missing is a full bar! LOL I could spend hours here trying their bowls, the korean bowl packs a punch and is so fresh! I think if I had to describe this place in 4 words it would be "Fresh, Innovative, Specialized, Flavorbomb". Don't walk, run to get here! read more

They forgot my guacamole on an online delivery order. Other food was very good! Annoying when restaurants mess up delivery orders. I'll try it again, but not on delivery. read more

Very good food, they have the BEST vegetarian chili. Will definitely go back when in Reno. So glad to find a place with a great vegetarian selection. read more

I love this place! The food is fresh and it's always really good. Ive never had any issues with the service or consistency of the food. Try the Thai bowl with tofu (even if you're a meat eater) and the PB&J smoothie. You won't be disappointed. read more

Four words: Ginger beer on tap. AND it's not the weak ish. It's spicy-make-you-wanna-sneeze-goodness (oh, is that just me??). Also, I'm obsessed with their cheese and pico de gallo quesadillas. I know I can make those at home, pretty easy like, but I like when someone else makes my food. Along with my quesadilla, I got butternut squash and corn soup. It was pretty good. It could have used some salt, but I guess that defeats the purpose of eating healthy. I'd try it again, though. The thing I like the most about Laughing Planet is how nice everyone I've encountered is. I'm not a hipster-hippie hybrid (despite what some of my jerk friends seem to want to believe, since I'm a Midtowner), so you never know how you will be received at these kinds of places. I'm pleased to announce, all kinds are welcome here. read more

My 200th review....and Laughing Planet is definitely worthy of it. From the minute I walked in, I was greeted and asked if I wanted a beer, soda, etc since they noticed I was waiting for a friend. That's pretty cool in my opinion since this is not technically a restaurant and more of an order, then sit down sort of place. I was very tempted to have a beer but I had to go back to work. Their beer selection was very tempting considering most were from the Northern Nevada area. I take great pride in our beers :) Anyways, I've been on a salad kick lately and decided to order the Zappatista Salad with grass-fed beef. I got the dressing that came with it since they highly recommended it. Honestly, that's the number one reason I ordered this salad. It was avocado lime and it was simply amazing! All the flavors came together well. I also got their Arnold Palmer for a drink and it was the best Arnold Palmer I've ever had! I'm really torn between 4 & 5 starts. I would probably go for 4.75, if we could do that. The only negative thing I have to say is that parking can be difficult. I had to parallel park and I'm not the best parker! I did it though without hitting the curb! Yay me! Next time I go (hopefully this week), I'll walk from my office since it's only about a mile. read more

Very casual, a bit funky, but fun, this no-frills eatery has a nice variety of healthy food and drinks with my favorite being their "seasonal bowls." Service is usually very friendly and you bus your own table upon finishing. It's worth looking to find in its out-of-the-way Mid-Town location. read more

Good healthy food, my sister and niece are vegan, everytime they come visit. There is something for all of us. It would be nice if they had some soda pop though read more

My immediate reaction was: awesome, another hipster midtown eatery where you don't fit in unless your boyfriend has a mustache and one or both of you has a gluten intolerance. I have to admit though, there's a good variety on the menu and lots of substitutions available to suit just about anyone's preferences. I went late afternoon knowing the lunch hours would be busy and got right up to the counter with very friendly service. I ordered a burrito with chicken that was accompanied with green chiles, brown rice, black beans, corn and pico de gallo. After I ordered I realized you could get it as a bowl which I'll do in the future. I got a side of the habanero sauce and as promised it pack quite a bit of heat. Everything was really fresh and didn't leave you with that heavy weighted down feeling of eating the usual taqueria burrito that comes with the full fat everything. What I like most is they are open late every night! I believe sun-tues until 10pm and wed-sat it's open until 11. Being in the service industry and working late I can't tell you how hard it is to get a healthy take out meal after 9pm. I know I'll be a frequent visitor here! read more

Laughing Planet - Thai bowls and green smoothie. - Vegetarian Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Cute place with dinosaurs. Indoor was noisy but patio was nice. Menu looked extremeley promising, listing out tons of deliciously healthy sounding ingredients. Quick service. Boyfriend got the korean bbq bowl (too much spicy flavors) and I ordered a special-of-the-day bowl with white beans and slaw (really underwhelming mixture where the beans sogged down the rest). Alot of stuff in each bowl, with a poor balance... they need to fix the combos to ensure the correct dominance in one or two main flavors. This place is a good example of "trying too hard"... too many "the Dude" references, too many healthy pitches, too many ingredients. Huge potential to be better though. read more

Finally made it to this place - another fantastic food choice in Midtown. It is not easy at all to find because it does not face Virginia, and parking is as bad as it gets - so come early! I arrived at 11 am and the place was almost empty. By the time I left at 11:30 the lunch crowd was just starting to arrive but there was still plenty of seating both inside and out. The menu was fantastic - very hard to choose. I settled on the Korean BBQ Bowl. It was delicious and very spicy, but having lived in Korea for several years it tastes nothing like anything close to authentic Korean. I forgive them for that, because it tastes great. I'll definitely return to sample more of the menu. Plan well ahead and give this place a try! Welcome to Reno, @laughingplanetmidtown ! #lpcmidtown read more

A consciously feel good place that has sincerely belly pleasing food. The gumbo was warming with wonderful pieces of okra. The big chix burrito was lightly spiced & quite substantial. Love the anime toys dotted around the restaurant. Personable workers there. There is parking in the front of the restaurant. read more

Tucked away off of the Virginia strip you can find Laughing planet! I went in today middle of lunch rush and they handled it pretty well for them just opening. Maybe organize a line because we had no idea where to stand coming in. Despite that the chicken burrito with habanero salsa was perfect with a fresh fruit smoothie and a cheese quesadilla me and some friends split. Atmosphere is fun. Staff is friendly and they have a nice selection of salads, bowls, drinks, and apparently beer soon! Something for everyone here and a fast speed of service for the lunch rush Midtown brought to them today.. read more

Laughing Planet - A couple of the fruit smoothies, and the rad dinosaur figurine we had at our table. - Vegetarian Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Where do I start. Quirky decor. Lively atmosphere. And I guess classified as"hipster." It reminds me of a place straight out of Alberta St. In Portland, OR. If you're looking for something light, yet filling at the same time, this place is it. The menu is so diverse that it was hard to decide what to try first. There's Korean, Indian, Tex-mex, and everything in between. There's options for vegans, non-gluten eaters, vegetarians, meat-eaters, and the undecided. You can substitute pretty much anything to suit your needs. There's also fresh fruit smoothies , burrutos, and salads available if a rice bowl isn't your thing. I ordered the Korean BBQ bowl with beef. It comes with a generous heap of carrots and red cabbage on top with a tangy Lime sauce. A small (like a 1/4th cup of brown rice). A decent helping of beef, and sliced cucumbers and broccoli. The ginger is there, but not overpowering. One thing I do wish was that the meat be a little more sweet. I felt the dish was too sour at times...so much lime. But overall, it was a nice light meal. Satisfied, but not stuffed. read more

After coming back, thanks to Tim's management, I had to change the review. We had a wonderful experience this time and Tim (the owner) was great. We took his tip on the spicy sauces and there was no fly on site. My fiance got the Holy Mole- vegan style and I got the comfort bowl- vegan style, both very delicious and we'll definitely be coming back for more! Also the lemonade is very yummy! read more

This is my 3rd visit here and every time I've tried something different. I've enjoyed everything I've ordered in the past and this time it was no different. I ordered the Paleo bowl with the sauce on the side and added yams. It was so tasty! The yams really added to the flavor of the bowl and were cooked to a perfect texture. I was disappointed when it was finished because it was so delicious. We came in with about 10 people in front of us and still ordered within 5 minutes of being there and our food came out within 15. I'm a big fan of this place. read more

Laughing Planet - Paleo bowl with yams - Vegetarian Near Me - Reno, Nevada

One of the few places I wouldn't hesitate to give a full 5-stars to. Laughing Planet really has it together: wonderfully varied, super flavorful, not-too-pricey, great location, AND good for you! I probably have a bowl from here 2-3x a month, and have never been disappointed. The plethora of veggies that accompanies all of their offerings is really what sets them apart from other eateries, plus their ability to offer such bright, punchy flavors. The Bollywood bowl is my longtime standby, but I would say 50% of the time I get whatever the special is... They always have something new, different, and delicious. The counter-serve model helps keep things super casual, and they also have cute little touches inside. Who doesn't want to play with plastic dinosaurs while they eat burritos! Nobody I want to be friends with! The only downside here is that everyone knows how awesome it is, so there can be a pretty beast line sometimes. I usually order ahead to beat the line, but then you miss out on knowing what the amazing specials are! read more

I wanted to show my mom Reno has some cool eating spots that's not all about grease and fat, I was hyped about showing mom this wonderful place. Unfortunately upon arrival this lady working the cashier wasn't welcoming nor interested in giving options from the menu-- we finally decided what we wanted and it was simple two salads ( no meat ) and two teas, along with two cookies with chips and dip. We were the second proper to order before this big group of 8 stepped in -- they were severed before us ! That's tremendously not a good sign. The lady who took the order we seen her walking behind the counter into the kitchen stroking her blonde hair repeatedly! My mom was disappointed and disgusted about the service and the lack of cleanliness of the staff member. I haven't been back since this took place. My mother did enjoy her salad and mines - and the cookie was delicious to her - the tea was lacking taste and sugar. Two stars one star for food and taste and delicious, but that's it I can't give a star for the service read more
