    Meatless chicken nuggets and sweet potato fries.
    Fernando G.

    My wife introduced me to Plant Power a couple of years ago and I was hesitatant to try a meatless sandwich, but to my surprise it was actually pretty good. She had me try the nuggets as well and when we had to make a visit to the Encinitas Scripps recently, I had to get an order of my own. The nuggets are so good with BBQ sauce or honey mustard. Everything seems to be made to order as it's crispy and hot. They also have some decent beverage options and the service is always pleasant. I can't say much for the interior since we have always opted for the drive through. I'll be looking forward for the next chance to grab some more of those nuggets.

    I'm not a huge vegan fan boy. I'm a dad. I grill a lot. I have kids. They like hot dogs, hamburgers, ribs, tri-tip, brisket - so do I. But every now and then, you need a break. Plant power nearly matches the quality of any fast food joint or frozen food in your fridge quality. It's legit. Its like In-and-Out + Mcdonalds combined. Their fries here are ridiculous, so is their secret sauce. Their sauce is like a richer more dense version of In-and-Outs, less runny, more flavor. Their burgers here are a kinda sorta. The cheese is not dairy based and you can taste that it's artificial. The burgers are an 8/10. I like impossible burgers quite a bit. These are similar but there's a slight disconnection. The nuggets taste same same. 5 stars tbh. 8/10 food quality, service is lightening quick. Prices may soar a bit but who cares? You pay for health and you get it here. Nice service too. Recommmend.

    I tried the Holy Guacamole burger, and it was just okay. The prices are reasonable, but I was expecting a bit more in terms of flavor--maybe it just wasn't the best choice for me. I'd like to try another burger next time to see if there are better-tasting options. Had a very nice outdoor seating options though!

    How do I even start this review? What an amazing establishment I was helped so kindly by KHALED All the Hispanic people in there were so sweet to me and and I was able to practice some of my Spanish Estoy Embarazada I'm pregnant and so hungry all the time these people here who work here are so unbelievably kind and showed me the kind of hospitality that I'm not really really used to. I appreciate every single worker here and I can't wait to come back. I highly highly highly highly highly recommend Plant Power Fast Food on 411 Santa Fe Dr.

    Sadly underwhelmed :( I was really looking forward to eating here but doubt that I'll be back. Ordered a superfood salad and it was basically just sloppily thrown together (fast food style) spinach and not much more. There was essentialy no quinoa on it and a few pieces of dried out beets that I was hoping would be fresh but don't think they are- they look freeze dried! :( I don't like leaving negative reviews but it's an honest one Definite emphasis on the fast food part, no so much your typical thought out and carefully prepared vegan or vegetarian place.

    Our first visit here - My husband and I grabbed lunch here after a walk. We were looking for someplace where we could do takeout and have something healthy. I ordered a Holy Guacamole burger with the hippie patty, no cheese (made from coconut which raises cholesterol), and with it wrapped in lettuce. My husband ordered the cheese burger w/o cheese & no onions. (They charge for grilled onions.) When we received our order, mine was correct but they added cheese to my husband's so we had to have There is no seating inside but plenty seating outside. There's a drive thru and a decent amount of parking. It was cold out so we opted for sitting in our car. Our second visit, I got the Holy Guacamole burger again with the hippie patty but got the cheese and bread this time. My husband got the Western burger w/o the bacon. My husband thought the cheese added flavor to the burger but it was lacking in sauce and it was not evenly spread out. I didn't think the cheese added anything to my burger and I must say I prefer it w/o the bread since I felt the bread took some of the flavor away or there wasn't much of the guac to make up for it. The sweet potato fries were a bit over cooked but the ketchup helped a bit. Overall, the burgers are decent and a better option than some other options out there. The photos are from the second visit. Overall, not a bad place to get burgers for a plant based place.

    My boyfriend is 100% vegan, we are visiting from out of state and made a point to stop here. Very impressive menu selection! Everything we had was delicious. My one and only complaint is they didn't have diet soda, but we loved our experience! Wish we had our own location back home!

    I got a ''Bacon' Cheeseburger, curly fries,and my friend got a Iconic Burger and regular fries

    I liked it. I am a big big meat eater, my friend had been vegetarian for since he was little. I normally am on the pickier side. I don't like mustard, onions or pickles. My burger came with them and since I normally don't eat at a place like this. I didn't ask for them off. AMAZING move. I normally don't like when those topping over power my burger. This place prepares it jut right. Fire burger def gonna eat vegan more often. My friend said it's not his fav vegan burger but he did think they were good. So that's the opinion of an eat eater and a long time vegan. Our cashier was Marisol J and she did a great job helping us. I had poor eyesight but she was great helping me navigate there options. Def coming again and recommending to a friend.

    I don't know how this place doesn't have 5 stars. I had the OG breakfast burrito and it was SOOOO GOOD. The chipotle aioli sauce is insane.

    Ask the Community - Plant Power Fast Food

    Is outdoor seating available?

    Hi there, due to COVID-19 none of our locations are currently offering any dine onsite options. We are currently operating VIA take out and delivery (drive thru when applicable to the different locations).

    I can't find nutrition facts anywhere on Plant Powers website nor online resources, in 2019 you stated that your working with a lab to obtain this information. Can you provide an update on this nutrition guide? I need to count my calories.

    Hi thanks for checking in, the wait is finally (almost) over! It’s been a tedious, lengthy, and thorough process to be the least, and since we craft lots of our products in-house it’s taken much longer than we thought. :-) We hope to have all that… 

    Where did the chili cheese fries go?

    Is everything soy free?

    Hi, we have a handy allergen guide online that helps identify our items that are soy free! However in the Soy we use is Identity Preserved Soy, either non-GMO, organic, or both!… 

    Does the Encinitas location have inside seating?

    No. It's all outside. They do have a few heaters out though

    Do they have Nutrition Facts? I'm on a restricted diet for medical reasons and I need to know this information or I can't try it out.

    This answer says it is a year old and still no nutritional information?

    What are the ingredients in the food, it doesn't say anywhere even on their website, suspicious?

    Hi Rock! Thanks for reaching out. No need to be suspicious.....we're not an evil corporate vegan empire....not yet anyway. Although we haven't completed our nutritional analysis yet, you can ask about the basic ingredient list for any of our… 

    What is in the Big Zac? (What's it made out of? Is it soy or ?... Bun too...) Thx.

    The Big Zac Two 'beefy' style patties, special sauce, American ‘cheese’, lettuce, onions and pickles.… 

    How is the parking?

    Parking can be hard if you go at a busy time, in between typical meal times you can drive right up and no wait.

    When is the Redlands location going to open?

    August 27th!!!!!!

    Will the mini corn dogs ever come back? They were SO good!

    I hope so cause they was amazing. I would go to their website & send a request for them to come back

    What is the maple aioli made of? I hate mayo

    It does have mayo, according to the folks who work there. Mayo and maple syrup. Hope this helps.

    When are you going to be open? Open open open!

    Soft opening hours are 12 PM to 6:30 PM. Not sure when their actual opening for regular hours begins.

The ambiance....super cool! We went with the recommendations of the counter gal, who was super friendly, she did not steer us wrong! Hubs had the firebird sandwich, and his verdict...delicious! I had the little pecker which came with 3 chicken tenders, biscuits (with THE best honey butter) and fries (sooo good)! Dogs are welcome at any table (both inside and outside), which was a huge plus since we had our pup with us. The location is easy to get to, pretty much right off the 5 freeway. We will definitely be back!

    It saddens me a bit to write this review because I've loved Crack Shack for years, but…read moreunfortunately after my most recent visit, I feel like the food quality has gone down. My usual order (to share between 2 people) is the half bird (5 pieces of chicken) and the mini biscuits with miso maple butter. The mini biscuits are tasty and moist, and the miso butter complements them well, adding the perfect amount of sweetness! However, both of the chicken thigh pieces were quite dry. The restaurant provides a self-serve sauce bar with plenty of sauce options. They also provide large paper towel rolls at each table as well as multiple sinks located around the restaurant so that it is easy to clean your hands after eating! The servers are very attentive.
