I traveled the country on a vegan food road trip and chronicled our favorite places and it all boils down to Pianta. Pianta is my favorite of all time. It's comfort food with a flare and I am here for it! I highly recommend the country chick'un plate and you can't leave without trying the steak egg rolls and smashed potatoes. It's food worth coming back for over and over... and I do! Easily the best vegan food restaurant in the US. read more

Updating my review to rave about the new restaurant! Still same 5 star food and service, but now beautifully plated in a great atmosphere with a delicious menu of drinks! Everything - and I mean everything - is absolutely delicious. read more

We went here is part of the veg out food challenge. They were offering steak and cheese eggrolls. To me they didn't taste anything like steak or cheese but they weren't bad. They came with dip and they required a lot of dip to have much flavor other than veggies. I would've liked to of tried some thing else there but I didn't know what was recommended. It was OK read more

PiANTA Vegan - Vegan Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

Brunch at PiANTA was AMAZING. We sat at the bar and had so much fun chatting with the bar tender. The breakfast sandwich was the best I've ever tasted (vegan and non-vegan), it was SO flavorful and the Cinnabon Belgian Waffle was crazy good. Although we had heard how great the food was we were not expecting it to be that good. We've been eating vegan for 4 years and this is by far the best breakfast we've ever had. Ps the owner is the coolest. read more

Disappointing. The cheese triangles appetizer was good and the servers were nice. Now, the bad parts. First, the fries and chicken appeared to be frozen. I believe some money could be saved by making fresh fries at least. This was interesting for a restaurant that brands itself around sustainability. I agree with Rosie's comment that we overpaid for a mediocre meal. Plant City is also overpriced, but the food tastes fresh there and is worth the price. I had a gluten-free buffalo chicken wrap. The gluten-free wrap was awful and fell apart. The chicken appeared to be frozen and was simply doused in buffalo sauce to make it buffalo-flavored and the lettuce was drenched in ranch. It was very salty. One of the servers mentioned that the gluten-free wraps that they had weren't great. I wondered why the server said this in front of a customer. I also wondered why the restaurant would continue to serve bad gluten-free wraps and charge extra for them. Another issue was how long the food took to come out. It took 45 minutes to receive 2 wraps. We received the appetizer promptly, but we finished the small portion and just sat waiting for the entree. read more

My husband and I tried this place out recently. We got the loaded Italian and the Chicken Cesar wrap. We'd both give the loaded Italian 5 stars! We honestly weren't expecting much as we've never really had any good, cold vegan sandwiches, but this was an exception. It was a great, tasty sandwich ! The Chicken Cesar wrap was good also, but nothing amazing in my opinion. We also thought the sandwiches were a bit on the pricey side, but enjoyed it overall and would definitely return! It is a great addition to the vegan scene we have here in Providence read more

SO good. I got hooked when they were take out only and now that I can sit down and eat at a restaurant with other people who love their food it's even better! read more

After a long week, and it was only 11:30 am Monday, I decided to try Pianta. I ordered the steak and cheese egg rolls, the bbq "chicken" grilled cheese, and the Italian sandwich. First the food was really good, so good I started eating in the parking lot. The bbq grilled cheese is absolutely touched by the gods and I highly recommend it. The eggs rolls were great, though a bit greasy. Didn't care, tasted like heaven. The only reason this isn't a 5-star review is because of the packaging of the Italian sandwich. The pickle was rolled into the wrapper against the sandwich and I didn't eat it immediately and placed it in the frig for dinner. Hours later, I went to eat the sandwich and the pickle had leaked through the wrapper and entire bottom of the sandwich was wet and soggy...so I didn't eat it. In any event, the other two items were so great, I'm still going to order again as soon as possible. I'm obsessed with the bbq grilled cheese. Soooo good. read more

PiANTA Vegan - Steak Cheese Egg Rolls (2) (NF) - Vegan Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

My wife and I came here on a Saturday night for a belated birthday dinner. We'd had an idea of what we wanted going in but when we saw that they had a poutine special we had to have it, along with the steak and cheese egg rolls. Both were delicious and well presented. For the main course we got the pesto gnocchi and the mezze platter (usually an appetizer but I love falafel). Everything was fantastic. For dessert we got another special, the banana bread pudding with ice cream and cream cheese frosting. It was, without a doubt, the best dessert either of us had ever had. This was absolutely worth the 1 hour+drive and is one of the best vegan restaurants I've had the pleasure of dining at. Shout out to our server Julianna who was friendly and attentive and chased us down when we forgot our leftovers at the table. read more

Food is always fabulous here. I've had damn near everything I think. When I've dined in, service has been beyond-I don't even know who came out from the kitchen to check on me and my meal last time, but it was such a Michelin move, I loved it (and the food!). Ambiance is nice, roomy, and I think there's a small bar, might be remembering that wrong because I got to sit outside. That I recommend if available(quite the scene on that street) and the 'peanut butter' dessert...and obviously the steak eggrolls...oh and the Italian grinder (it's like the original your neighborhood grandma made back in the 80s)...and...just get what you want, it's all good. read more

What an unbelievable meal! My daughter is vegan so we are always looking for options that "accommodate" vegans. Well not tonight! Tonight we found The perfect place! The food was amazing! The service spectacular! Vegan or not, PiANTA does not disappoint!! A must try on Federal Hill. read more

PiANTA Vegan - A pickle... or whatever happened here. - Vegan Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

So yum. Vegan cheese tasted real! Peach salad, smashed potatoes, and brussel sprouts were all hits. Will return

Updating my review to include additional items I've tried. I lovedddd the chickpea caprese wrap! The chickpeas were so well seasoned! I'm not usually a huge wrap fan but this will definitely be a go-to item for me. The picked onion also adds a great touch. The Thai bowl is also definitely gonna be another go-to of mine. The mix of flavors and ingredients was perfect. The tofu was delicious. The noodles were quite undercooked in my opinion but it was still delicious. The peanuts add great texture. Love it. The sweet corn fritters are delicious. They and they potatoes are super greasy but they are delicious! read more

50 minutes to make steak and cheese eggrolls. We were about to leave after waiting so long then the food came out - we looked and laughed at how long we had to wait for 4 bite size pieces. The food was absolutely amazing and the only reason this isn't one star. Still, we thought it wasn't worth the wait for such small servings and we wouldn't be coming back. read more

Food was absolutely incredible and the drinks were awesome. Staff was super welcoming and attentive. Can't wait to go back!

This review is long overdue. We went to this wonderful restaurant in the summer for my son's birthday weekend. One if the highlights of our trip. The food was fantastic and whimsical. I loved the veggie tatare and everything else we ordered. The chef actually came out to greet my son and gave him a special treat. Can't wait to return! read more

Excellent vegan spot. Steak and cheese egg rolls, chicken and mashed potatoes with incredible honey biscuit, and bbq fingers are out of this world. Staff and owner are friendly and appreciative of your business. Highly recommended! read more

Fantastic spot, great service, and delicious food. Great place to take a non-vegan too. Can't wait to return.

Hubby and I devoured a Country Chicken entree 8/10 and an Italian grinder 7/10. Both delicious. Bummer that they were out of the steak and cheese rolls but we'll just have to come back!! Riss was our server and I loved her! Looking forward to our next PiANTA meal Edit: the raspberry brownie dessert was fabulous and hubbs said this is the best vegan meal he's had in a long time!! And he's picky AF. read more

Delectable edibles with warm and efficient service. Six of us shared the goodness of each other's choices and every single thing was delicious. The olive oil cake with lemon curd was divine! . We look to our next visit. read more

My friend, my daughter, and I had such a fantastic experience at PIANTA yesterday; I recommend this spot.

AMAZING!!! Let me start by saying the quality of the food, more than justifies the price. AND I was more than full/satisfied with my sandwich! Me & hubby had the loaded Italian, Buffalo chicken, steak and cheese egg rolls, smashed potatoes, and coffee milk. All of it was EXCEPTIONAL! In quality, freshness and flavors. The homemade sauces are the best I've had. What I love is that the vegan "meats" don't have that weird under taste common in vegan "meats" that can be off putting. I bit into the sandwich, chewed and waited. To my absolute delight it never came! I know I'm repeating myself and other reviewers at this point, but the food is AWESOME. The only thing I didn't care for was the coffee milk. The quality was good, I just didn't like the pistachio flavor. Personal preference. In the future, I hope a brick and mortar restaurant will be available where I can sit and enjoy this wonderful food with like minded people. read more

I am not a vegan but I am currently cutting back heavily on dairy and gluten so I figured I'd give this place a shot. They did not disappoint! I ordered the BBQ grilled cheese and my lady got the thanksgiving sandwich. We both ordered the caramel apple cheesecake. My food was absolutely delicious and my girls food tasted very good, however it was served cold. I'm not sure if this was by design or if it was supposed to be served warm/hot. The dessert was perfect! I've read so much about the egg rolls I really wanted to give them a try but using DoorDash the order was already almost $70.00 for two sandwiches and dessert. I understand clean food like this comes with a price so we'll have to try them next time. There will definitely be a next time! For the record I would give my first experience here a 4.5 based off taste, knock off .5 for cold sandwich and prices. Highly recommended. read more

I have yet to try 1 bad thing at this place! Our faves are the Buffaque Tenders and Steak & Cheese Egg Rolls (that chipotle aioli though!!!) Their desserts rotate and I have loved them all. Today we decided to try the pasta with cauliflower cream sauce, broccoli and chicken...OMG I will be craving this all the time. We also got the Egg Nog Bread Pudding which was rich and decadent. You just cannot go wrong with this place! read more

The steak and cheese egg rolls are amazing. I started ordering from them before they have their dine in location so I've been a fan for a long time. Unfortunately inflation has caused the pricing to go up considerably which means I can't justify going as often as I used to but I still enjoy their food when I have a chance to get over there. I would, however, encourage others to skip the grinder. Really expensive for something really small. read more

The food we experienced from PiANTA was fantastic! They were vendors at the recent RI Vegtoberfest, and as attendees, this was our first time tasting their offerings. They were sampling their Autumn "Chicken" Salad on a cracker. We got in the long line leading to their booth, tried the sample and indulged in most of their menu items as well. We each ordered their Buffalo "Chicken" Handheld, their Loaded Italian Handheld, and their "Steak" and "Cheese" egg roll. The egg roll was fantastic! The proportion of the filling to the dough was perfect. The filling was very flavorful and the egg roll held together well throughout the munching of it. I had snacked the fest aplenty at that point so I saved the handhelds for about an hour later. By the time I dug into them, they seemed as fresh as they would've been if I had eaten them right away. The Buffalo consisted of: spicy pea protein tenders in buffalo sauce, lettuce, tomato, red onion, greens, and vegan ranch on a wrap. It was a perfect combination of ingredients in perfect proportions. The lettuce was still crisp. The wrap wasn't so loaded with sauces that it became soggy. The buffalo flavor of the "chicken" tenders was spot on. The Loaded Italian Handheld consisted of: "pepperoni", "salami", house-made Italian sandwich mustard, marinated tomato & onion, Calabrian chili paste on Italian bread. It was also, really, really good. The flavor was wonderfully balanced, the amount of ingredients was great, and again the amount of sauce didn't make for a soggy sandwich. The bread was well toasted in texture and taste. We're definitely looking forward to trying PiANTA's other menu items in the future! read more

Outstanding restaurant that happens to be vegan. Every time we visit we are impressed with the excellent quality of food, service, and general ambiance. Their catering is also outstanding. read more

I have ordered from Pianta for 3 nights in a row- while this is not normally a fact I'd be declaring in public, I simply could not resist. The menu is vast and the chef's ability to create vegan dishes that so closely mimic the non-vegan options is unlike any I've tried before. It is clear that she puts care, love, and attention into her food. So delicious! read more

I was at an event at Sprout CoWorking last night that was catered by Pianta and it was amazing! I was thrilled that it was vegan so that I could eat everything, but so many people didn't know and ate it and couldn't even tell. So yummy read more

The drinks here (made by Ris!) are ASTONISHING. Possibly the best of any bar I've been to in Providence. My date and I both swore when we took our first sips. We had the corn fritters, the country chicken, and the crab cakes and all were excellent. read more

I had the Caesar bowl, smashed potatoes, and crumb cake dessert. Everything was so good! I'm pretty sure I could live happily off the potatoes and little else forever. You do have to order through Doordash (even for pickup), which was new for me, but the process was simple enough. I'm looking forward to trying the other GF menu items! read more

Absolutely delicious food for all people vegan or not. Brunch is to DIE for - especially their waffles!

Ordered from here twice, and look forward to ordering more, even though it's a bit pricey for my budget (but good portion sizes). I normally prefer dishes that don't try to taste like non-vegan ingredients, and this menu leans a bit toward fake-meat/dairy, but every dish I've had is excellent! Loved the whole roasted cauliflower and a pasta dish especially, but also a country "chicken" dish. Don't skip the excellent desserts! read more

I ordered the Super Caesar and not only was it absolutely delicious, but the portion was so big that I got two meals out of it. Greens, quinoa, roasted chickpeas, roasted broccoli, almonds, vegan Parmesan, croutons, and an amazing vegan Caesar dressing. I'll definitely be back to get this again! read more

For a vegan friend who was in town, we decided to search out a restaurant that she would enjoy. What a find. It was small and friendly. The service was great, only topped by the food. I'm not close to vegan but enjoy all types of cuisine. These guys do it right. The cheese 'steak' egg rolls.. wow! The corn bread was crazy good. The 'chicken' even looked like chicken. You guys are doing something special over there. read more

AMAZING all around! Great food, great service, great place!! I am very picky eater and I have yet to find something I don't like on their menu. I am also not a vegan, but this has made me reconsider all things! Love love love! read more
