One of my kids had their wedding lunch here and the food was awesome....and its all Vegan!!! Too bad the parent company CHG filled for bankruptcy Only meh dish were the noodles. Bang bang broccoli was awesome As a true carnawhore I would mos def recommend and would love to go back

For years I've heard about planta but never made my way over there. Some ppl told me it was overhyped but my cousin had recently tried it with her workplace and said she really wanted to go back and told me I had to try it. So we made a lunch reservation on a Thursday and it was empty. Maybe only 5 tables full in the whole restaurant. The restaurant is quite dark but very spacious and large in size. Decorated with an Asian aesthetic. So at this point all I know is that Planta is vegan. I didn't know what cuisine we were about to eat but turns out it is Asian slash Asian fusion? And it was actually delicious??? I was very pleasantly surprised. I would definitely go back again. I highly recommend the truffle fried rice and bang bang broccoli.

Absolutely incredible experience and will have to dine in next time !! I've been wanting to visit Planta for a long time now and finally had an opportunity when visiting Toronto ! I placed an online order for their sushi box and couldn't wait to devour it. I ordered torched & pressed, spicy tuna, firecracker and red dragon ! I didn't realize it at the time but all the rolls I selected were spicy besides torched and pressed. I guess I could've switched up the variety but they all sounded so mouthwatering that I didnt really think twice about it. I loved firecracker the most but they were all so delicious. Amazing flavors, the right amount of heat and of course, vegan I'll be back again soon !!

Spicy crab hand roll

I'm not vegetarian, but I came to PLANTA on a Thursday for happy hour because my sister (who is vegetarian) raved about the New York location. She said it was one of the few places where she could order something other than just avocado rolls -- and now I totally get why she loved it. The restaurant itself is massive and has a more sultry vibe.The happy hour menu had a lot of tempting stuff, but the Unagi eggplant nigiri was the surprise star for me -- honestly tasted so close to the real thing. The spicy "crab" hand roll was also delicious, and I'm still thinking about the cauliflower wings. Perfectly crispy with great flavor. Service was attentive and friendly without hovering too much, which I appreciated. All in all, super impressed -- this place made me forget I was eating vegan food. I'd definitely come back, and I get why my sister's obsessed.

AVOCADO BEET ROOT TARTARE

had an incredible dinner at Planta last night. Lovely bartender. Nice lighting. The unagi eggplant nigiri melted in my mouth, the beet root tartare was excellent and the spicy tuna roll was soo much the better version of this dish. Seriously I begrudgingly saved some to take back to my husband, he was super skeptical and then absolutely impressed. Said it was spot on and just as satisfying as from any other quality sushi spot. He also enjoyed the crispy mushroom hand rolls. The matcha cheese cake was delicious. Would absolutely recommend and return. Thank you

Volcano Roll - excellent
Bjorn P.

I ordered take out from Planta Queen and it was fantastic! The restaurant itself is beautiful so I plan to eat inside - one day. I ate the following: - BANG BANG BROCCOLI - sweet chili, peanut sauce (amazing, excellent texture and delicious sauce) - UNAGI EGGPLANT - miso truffle (brilliant - this was genius) - VOLCANO ROLL - heart of palm crab, avocado, cucumber, sesame, crispy sweet potato, gochujang mayo (excellent ) - UDON NOODLES truffle mushroom cream (decadent) The food here is phenomenal and for takeout it's packed with care. I stayed in a hotel though and they did not inside utensils which was a bummer but the food was too good to drop this down a notch. Can't wait to try more from the menu!

Came for a dinner with friends and we happened to catch happy hour which is 3-6pm. We ordered almost everything on the happy hour menu. My favourites were the cauliflower (lightly breaded), mushroom "chicken" (tasted like fried chicken skin over mushrooms), eggplant Nigiri (super delicious, tasted like torched fatty white fish). The handrolls, brownie, and Japanese sweet potatos were also good and I would order them again. I wasn't a fan of the watermelon nigiri or the summer rolls. The latter would greatly benefit from the tofu being cooked or flavoured, it tasted quite bland. The spicy tuna Maki roll was also tasting heavily of sweet coconut which was a bit jarring. Service was great and very attentive. The interior is very aesthetically pleasing and would be great for a corporate event, date, or time with friends. The price is fairly high. I would say that for the happy hour, prices are good and I would come back during those hours but I do not think I would come back outside of their specials. My friends and I had a great time.

Matcha cheesecake
Sheree Z.

LOVED the Unagi Eggplant Nigiri. Would solely come back just for that dish. The fact that it's all vegan is crazy! The flavors were amazing. MUST ORDER: -bang bang broccoli 8/10 -unagi eggplant nigiri 12/10 -Dan Dan noodles 9/10 -matcha cheesecake 8.5/10 The vibe is a little classy. I went on Monday night and it wasn't packed at all. They also have great green juices! Top eats in Toronto by far!

I went to PLANTA for lunch with a girlfriend on a Monday while staying in the city. This is a very cool spot with beautiful decor - the ambiance was amazing. It feels very upscale without being stuffy or uncomfortable. Service was very good, everyone was accommodating and friendly. I was able to try a lot of the food, so here is everything I tried and my thoughts: -Bang Bang Broccoli: 10/10 - no notes. This was a hit and sooooo yummy. The broccoli was so crispy and didn't get soggy, even the pieces at the bottom with sauce -Salted Maple Macchiato - 4/10 - one of the worst coffees I have had in Toronto. It just lacked flavor, I couldn't taste the maple or sea salt. Their other drinks looked great, I wish I got a cocktail/mocktail instead -Bao Slider: 5.5/10 - it was just okay, I didn't love the flavors and thought it had a really fishy taste -Crab Rangoon Dip: 7/10 - it was a pretty good and flavorful dip, but nothing special. The wonton chips were what made the dish! -Udon Noodles: 8.5/10 - these were fantastic! Really amazing truffle flavor and a generous amount of mushrooms. Definitely on the soup-y side, so I would expect less of a "pasta" dish and more ramen-y Overall, this is a really nice place for vegetarians and vegans to enjoy a large variety of unique and cool foods. While I don't think every dish was a hit, I would go back and try something new, likely the sushi.

I visited Planta Queen for a social gathering to take advantage of their Maki Mondays ($9 maki rolls, or $29 for unlimited maki rolls), and Happy Hour (Mon-Thurs 4 pm - 6 pm, & 8:30 pm - close) specials. The Queen location offers an asian fusion plant-based menu, with a wide selection of sushi rolls, small plates, salads, and bowls, in addition to rice and noodle dishes. The dishes we tried were either a hit or miss here, so knowing the right dishes to order will make a difference to your dining experience. I thought the maki rolls here were extremely mediorce, while I enjoyed the "Firecracker Wings" (fried cauliflower) and the "Pad Thai Slaw". This location has chic, modern decor, with a bit of an upscale feel. The staff here were friendly and accommodating. I had a fly land on one the hand rolls I ordered, and had asked our server to take it away when she came to clear some empty plates. She also did not charge me for the hand roll when we asked for the bill which was very much appreciated, and reflected great customer service.

My search-to-comment ratio in Yelp is maybe 20:1.. and I'm probably 50/50 on praise/complain. I gotta say, if you come here ask for Simon. He's on the ball and just what you'd expect for a good waiter in a place with this ambiance.

Carrot Cake (Dessert Special)
Helen M.

Amazing as usual! Love love this place and was so happy to be back -- Bang Bang Broccoli - 10/10 Volcano Roll - 10/10 Spicy Tuna Roll - 10/10 Dragon Roll - 10/10 Mushroom pasta - 9/10 Potstickers 10/10 Carrot Cake (April Special) - 20/10 This place never fails me, everything is soooo good. I have the mushroom pasta 9/10 only because I forgot to ask for chili oil or pepper flakes to give it spice. The service is always A+ and the vibes are always amazing. Have nothing bad to say!!

Dan Dan Noodles
Celton M.

Finally! Made it to Planta! I am impressed - everything from the ambience, to the food and the service. The decor was very beautiful. Host and servers were very kind and made sure that we were well taken care of. I had the Dan Dan Noodles - they were delicious! Never had anything like it to be honest, and it was full of flavors. Bathrooms (man/woman) were very clean.

The storefront is in a underground food court in Torontos' financial district. It's quite clean, small, but efficient. I ordered the 3 piece vegan wings (everything here is plant based FYI) and an Asian Fusion bowl. The employee taking my order was very friendly and quick. Got my number to wait for and within 5 minutes I was on my way. Good service. However my first thing I tried after I got back to my hotel I ate the wings. Holy sodium. Almost like eating straight salt. The wings were way too salty even before dipping them in the Frank's wing sauce. Almost inedible salty for me. Minus two stars for that. The Asian Fusion bowl wasn't as salty, but still pretty strong bit of sodium. The veggies were tasty, my protein choice which was tempeh which was cooked and seasoned well. Overall not bad, but maybe let natural flavors come out in the food instead of turning towards tons of salt.

They had so many variations of these bowls and lots of vegan and vegetarian options to choose from. The service via Uber Eats was quick and had no issues with that. When it came to the food, I was certainly underwhelming. I was not a fan of the Smoky Chipotle bowl and had thought I would love it based on the ingredients in the bowl. I found it lacked flavour and was just completely bland. The sauces had a weird aftertaste and I just did not enjoy the bowl overall. I hope the rest of their bowls are good and I just got a one off not pleasant one. I don't think I would be ordering again from this place. 5/10 recommend!

I was downtown and stumbled upon this grab-and-go spot, and it was exactly what I needed. I ordered two burrito bowls and a soup, and the total was around $50. Honestly, it was worth every single dollar. What really sold me on this place is how precise they are--they literally measure out every portion of protein, vegetables, and fats. It's awesome for anyone who's tracking their intake or just appreciates getting a perfectly balanced meal. Beyond the great food, the staff was super friendly and genuinely helpful. The prices are totally fair for the quality you get. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area and looking for a quick, healthy bite.

It's very quaint and pretty standard for the area, nothing flashy, just a simple neighbourhood restaurant. We went on a Friday around 11:30 AM and were the only table there, which made for a quiet and relaxed lunch. We ordered the bún bò Huế and the pad thai. Both were fine, but nothing particularly memorable. They did the job, but neither dish really stood out enough to make me crave a return visit specifically for them. That said, this is very much a no-fuss kind of place. Prices were on the more affordable side, around $15 per dish, which is always appreciated in Toronto. The atmosphere is casual, the service was straightforward, and the food came out without much of a wait. Overall, it probably wouldn't become my go-to spot, but as a vegetarian-friendly option in the area, it's a solid and easy choice if you're nearby and looking for something simple.

I was incredibly excited to enjoy PLANTA here in Toronto. I've had them twice in Chicago and in LA,…read morebut being able to indulge in their signature vegan dishes at a slightly discounted price made me an extremely happy eater. We made a reservation (highly recommended) which they were able to pull up since we got there 30 minutes early and starving. The entire restaurant had a beautiful, high end vibe without prices being too high for its own good. We started off with their delicious Bang Bang Broccoli and Kimchi Chick'n Baus, both of which I'd easily come back for more if this was a buffet line. The bang bang sauce was absolutely sensational and we dipped our tasty baos in it afterwards. For our mains, we divided up their Volcano Roll, Kelp Caesar Salad, and a Hawaiian Pizza. The roll was alright (I've had better at vegan sushi restaurants) but the salad and pizza were both extraordinary. In particular, the salad sent me and was a complete flavor and texture bomb. Highly recommend everyone getting this to share as it was an absolute standout. As much as we wanted room for dessert, our hunger was just too much from not eating all day. Everything here definitely hit the spot and would definitely return again the next time I'm in Toronto.

Lee is the one restaurant I look forward to every Summerlicious…read more One reason is that every year they create a completely new menu instead of reusing dishes from their regular menu. As an Asian fusion restaurant, I always come curious to see what new ideas the chef has come up with. The last two Summerlicious menus disappointed me a little--they felt a bit uninspired, with dishes like the vegetable curry and croquette. This year, however, the creativity is back, and I'd happily recommend Lee's Summerlicious menu again. Fried Wild Cod The crispy cod is served in an edible crispy rice basket, making it feel like sharing bread at the start of the meal. The fish is fried perfectly with a crisp exterior and moist, flaky interior. Paired with Thai sweet chili sauce, it's light, flavorful, and great for sharing. Gazpacho Picante A refreshing take on gazpacho. The avocado gives it a smoother texture, while the hint of spice adds another layer without overpowering the chilled tomato soup. Refreshing and a great appetizer. BBQ Jerk Pork Ribs Three generous ribs--almost a main course on their own. The meat is tender while still retaining a bit of bite, similar to the texture of slow-cooked jerk chicken. The jerk seasoning is excellent, coating every bite with rich, aromatic spices. Pan Roasted Salmon The salmon is beautifully cooked with a nicely caramelized exterior while remaining juicy inside. Each accompaniment brings something different: the olive tapenade is deeply savory, the parsnip purée is smooth and slightly sweet, the lima bean adds a creamy, nutty richness, and the lemon-tomato-pepper vinaigrette brightens everything with acidity and a gentle kick. Lima Bean Succotash Probably the prettiest dish on the menu--and also the most unusual. The lima beans and peas are cooked until tender without becoming mushy. The flavors are layered, but there's a subtle bitterness throughout. After asking the chef, we learned it's the natural flavor of lima beans and was intentionally preserved as part of the dish. Fried Organic Chicken The fried chicken is juicy and tender, reminding me of Japanese karaage. It comes with two fun sauces: one is rich and spicy with a hint of coconut, while the other is a sweet pineapple-lime mayo that pairs surprisingly well with the chicken. The pandan rice, however, was fairly ordinary. The desserts are still classic Lee--beautifully plated, but the flavors are more restrained. We tried the Rhubarb Almond Frangipane Tart, Lemon Mousse Panna Cotta (our favorite), and Strawberry Raspberry Monkey Bread. This year's Summerlicious reminded me why I fell in love with Lee in the first place.

I also highly recommend the wine paring they suggest having with the salad :) Everything else on the menu was done really well. The cheeseburger spring roll was quite unique, Indo think there could've been more texturally inside the actual spring roll, it was all mush in there. Very nice ambiance, service were very attentive, I had a great time and will be back to try more items :)
