Went to dinner with a vegan friend of mine and found this place. Cocktails were good although not too strong. The original one I wanted was the lychee but they ran out of the ingredients at 5pm. Anyway I tried the Lilac cocktail was pretty good. We had an array of things ... spicy crab hand roll, steamed edamame dumplings, zucchini chips, tofu and avocado The star of the happy hour menu was the spicy tuna maki roll . My favorite thing . I didn't even taste watermelon lol . Vegan sushi roll for the win. My friend has the kebabs and I had the beef and broccoli which was good. Spent like $100 pp I would come back and have that sushi roll again and try other things read more

Got their plant powered lunch. It includes your choice of 1 starter and 1 main dish. Everything on the menu is vegan/plant based. For the starter, I had the spicy "tuna" roll which had ahi watermelon, avocado and toasted coconut. This roll was just soo good! You can't even tell it's vegan. Will definitely get it again next time I'm here. For the main I had the "Beef" and Broccoli which was wok seared shiitake 'steak', tofu and sesame. Still very good dish and the shiitake made very realistic steak, but the spicy tuna roll was definitely the star of the show. read more

Still great! This time I tried the Watermelon Lime and Basil mocktail and it paired perfectly with everything. Make sure to get the matcha cheesecake if you can! Service was great and the restaurant was the perfect place to stop in for a weekend lunch. Heads up - they do brunch from 11am to 3pm read more

I am not vegan. If it weren't for our friends who are, and having eaten already at the kopino fest, we probably would not have gone. Funny enough, we met our only other vegan friend there. So, from the vegan perspective, this is a popular and tasty place. We started with drinks, being lunchtime, we opted for non alcoholic drinks, the matcha colada and the salty maple macchiato. The matcha colada had a nice color but tasted mostly like coconut and pineapple which was still yummy. Friends ordered 3 different kinds of sushi and dan dan noodles with tofu. I was confused with the sushi as I thought vegans didn't eat fish...so yes I asked and was told that they probably made the "fish" with tapioca. I did try a bite of each roll (I was still full from the fest) and I was surprised that it tasted pretty good. They did a nice job with the roll and presentation. The matcha cheesecake was nice and creamy. I would not have known it was vegan. I don't normally like food that pretends to be something else because it usually doesn't live up to the real thing. The idea is that it is not pretending to be something but rather substituting with vegan options, I do think from a health perspective, I am more open to trying more vegan foods. Ambiance felt upscale and wait staff were helpful and congenial. I hear dinner time gets packed here. I may have to try again when I have not eaten already. read more

Came in on a Sunday afternoon and sat at the bar, the atmosphere was exactly what I needed. Quiet, relaxed, not too loud or busy. A really nice vibe overall. The service was excellent. My bartender Lewis/Luis was incredibly attentive, frequently checking in to see how everything was going. He also recommended the Avocado Sushi with truffle miso to go alongside the Bang Bang Broccoli I had already ordered, and it was a great call. The Bang Bang Broccoli is good the tempura is well done and the sauce is delicious but after a couple of bites, the sauce starts to overpower the broccoli and becomes a little too saucy and salty. I found myself reaching for water more than I expected. The Avocado Sushi had a really beautiful smoky, rich flavor, though I do wish they'd pack a little less rice. With so much rice in each piece, it's hard to get a balanced bite cutting it down by half would make it perfect. The Matchatini was a standout. Creamy on top, with just the right amount of alcohol not overpowering at all, just enough to complement the matcha. As tempting as it was to order another one, I wanted to savor the moment, and I'm glad I did. For dessert, I had my eye on the Matcha Sandwich Cookies with ice cream, but they were sold out. Fellow reviewers saved the day though, pointing me to the Matcha Cheesecake and they were 110% correct. That cheesecake did not disappoint. Though it didn't seem to be a lot of food but I couldn't even finish it on my own so I got it to go. read more

Holy moly!!! What did we just experience on our wedding anniversary?! I had heard so much about this place and had been dying to try it for years. I never got the chance when we were in DC, so it was at the very top of my list for this NYC trip--and wow, it exceeded every expectation. As a vegan, this place is absolute heaven. We ordered three entrées because we wanted to try as much as possible, fully expecting leftovers. Nope. Every single plate was wiped clean. We had the Chili Crunch Ramen, Dan Dan Noodles, and Pepper Steak Lettuce Wraps, and they were unbelievably delicious. The Crispy Gyoza lasted about a minute before disappearing. For drinks, my Kombucha Mojito and Pom & Get It were fantastic. My husband loved the Sunday Beer Light so much that he ordered a second one. And then came dessert... The Chocolate Brownie and Matcha Cheesecake were the perfect ending to an incredible meal. The food, drinks, atmosphere, and service were all top-notch. If you're looking for an elevated vegan dining experience in NYC, this place is a must-visit. It's definitely on the higher-end side, so I'd recommend making a reservation in advance. 10/10. Already dreaming about my next visit. read more

My vegan / vegetarian friends and I love this place. It's very good plant based food. I've taken my meat eating friends here and they were surprised by how good it was. Definitely sign up for their rewards program because you get a free birthday dessert. The ambiance is great albeit a bit noisy when the dining room is full. Definitely a great date spot or somewhere to catch up with friends. Service is also excellent. They'll bring the dishes as they're ready! Order and share so you can try more items. My favourites are the udon noodles (so creamy!!), spicy tuna roll, tuna nigiri, and matcha cheesecake. This visit I tried the lemon matcha cookie sandwiches, one of their specials. Must try if you like matcha! One of the best matcha desserts I've had. read more

As a non-Vegan I was kind of impressed by how far they could take vegan food. Remember, ALL the menu items are vegan so even when they said "chicken" or "steak" it's vegan versions of them. They have a varied sushi menu that does taste pretty close to the real thing. If you're worried about protein or anything of the like, they have extra orders of meat, including the steak and it tells you the grams of protein it contains which is great (though not the total calories, so who knows what the protein: calorie ratio is). My favorite of the night though was the bang bang broccoli which is fried into a really nice texture, somewhat soft in the middle but a nice little crunch throughout. The service was kind. The vibes were cute and there's always res available at a reasonable time. read more

Came here for happy hour and it was so good ! We had the mezcal ginger drink and the margarita. For food we devoured the unagi eggplant with a delicious truffle touch. We had the spicy tuna roll and the crispy rice, both amazing although the toasted coconut detail on the spicy tuna took it over the edge! Service was delightful with Miguel as our bartender. He maintained conversation and recommended both the crispy rice and the mezcal drinks which were both hits. Ambiance was great with a cooling down and low exposure vibe on a sunny and warm day. Will certainly be back and bringing friends ! read more

PLANTA Queen Nomad - CRISPY RICE - Vegetarian Near Me - New York, New York

Manhattan, NY (NoMad) - there's no shortage of outstanding vegetarian & vegan restaurants in NYC these days, and I'm all here for it! I don't do dry January, new year's cleanses or resolutions (there are 12 months left of the year to disappoint myself with - why rush into it), but after a gluttonous holiday season, it felt righteous to clear the slate and palate with something more wholesome. The Asian inspired, plant-based dishes here are full of flavor and tickled our tastebuds. My appetite demanded something heftier than the well-touted vegan sushi, so I ordered a noodle dish: an udon bathed in rich and umami truffle mushroom cream, and could've licked the bowl clean! I opted for a protein add-on of "steak" (unfortunately they ran out of the crispy chick'n cutlet that I'd originally wanted), which was less interesting, made of textured bean curd sheets that lack muscularity and chew - I'm fond of them as a popular Asian pressed-soy snack, but am partial to a beefier kind of fake meat product if it's to be sold to me as steak. Despite the impressive simulacra of flesh marketed by the imitation meat industry, haute vegetarian cuisine tends to explore the flavors and creative qualities of fresh produce and non/less processed plants, grains, nuts & seeds, and legumes, in a way even dedicated carnivores can appreciate, so don't fear missing out on meat or "meat." The surprisingly simple bang bang broccoli is bangin'! And a crowd favorite. Definitely get that. The avocado beetroot tartare and crispy rice were excellent as well. My dining companions variously ordered sushi, fried rice, and other noodle dishes, and all were happy with their meals. Service was very warm and knowledgeable. When we asked our waitress Stasia for recommendations, she rattled off a list of items and their attributes, gamely answering our questions and clearly knew her way around the menu. "One of everything please!" read more

Tons of vegan options and perfect place to go with your friends. When we ordered the noodles, one of them was completely missing salt but the waiter was super helpful and accommodating. Bang bang also didn't hit like usual but everything else was amazing. Because of the number of options, recommend going with a group so you can eat family style. read more

We came here to celebrate my husband's birthday and the overall experience was amazing! Most specifically regarding the food and the service. However, they're only getting 4 stars from me due to the horribly uncomfortable layout this restaurant has, which I'll review at the end. However, it's important to note that when you arrive, you'll find the host stand in the MIDDLE of the restaurant, towards the end of the bar. It's in such an awkward spot. We had to wait about 10 minutes for our table (despite having a reservation) and there was no where to stand where we weren't in the way. We were either blocking the bar, blocking the entrance to the kitchen or blocking the walkway for people to get by. It was soooo awkward and weird. Not the best place to put a host stand... We're vegetarian, this 100% vegan sushi restaurant is perfect for us as we know we can order anything from the menu and be "safe". We started our meal with the 1000 Layer Crispy Potatoes (recommended by our server) and they were delicious! The perfect amount of sauce combined with the crispness of the potatoes made for a beautiful start to our celebratory meal. Next we indulged in the Red Dragon Roll and the Volcano Roll. Both of which were equally impressive in texture and flavor, we had a hard time deciding which was our favorite between the two. Still hungry after sharing these three menu items, we decided to order the Kimchi Baos. I was a bit skeptical because I'm not a fan of kimchi, however I was surprised at how much I enjoyed them! I really couldn't tell that they had kimchi on them, however they did have a unique flavor that makes them worth ordering again. Additionally, I loved the combination of the crispy fried mushrooms and the soft texture of the bao bun. Lastly, our server surprised us with a Sticky Toffee Pudding on the house to celebrate my husband's birthday! That was so nice and it was actually pretty tasty considering that it wasn't made with eggs. I typically don't enjoy Vegan desserts, but I'd say this one was an exception. Okay, now to the issue with the floor plan here.... The tables are CRAMPED everywhere in this place and they are arranged in such an awkward manner. Where we were seated was definitely one of the worst spots in the entire restaurant. Our tiny little two-top table was on the end near the area with the coat racks....and was next to a table that had someone in a chair sitting in the aisle. To help you get a better idea of the issue: the person in the chair took up half the aisle, meaning every time an employee or guest walked by (which was OFTEN) they had to awkwardly squeeze by and try not to knock into us while doing so. It was so annoying. What's worse, they have these horribly awkward setups with the tables in the middle of the restaurant where there's a little half wall thing in between us and the table next to us....but it was merely inches higher than the table itself. This meant that we were basically sharing a table with the people sitting next to us. Again, this was awkward and uncomfortable because the table next to us had 3 women and a baby who were not only incredibly loud, but they were letting the baby throw food all over the place. Had the floor plan not been so terribly arranged, this would've been a 5-star experience. Instead, we spent the evening trying to ignore the chaos around us. Note to the owners: figure out a new floor plan that is COMFORTABLE for the people eating here. Yes, your current layout is "cool" and has a nice vibe, however it's not functional in a way that is relaxing for your guests. read more

The bang bang broccoli was one of the best vegetables I've ever had! We ordered a second round. I like the truffle cream udon but did find the flavor a bit underwhelming, but the crispy chicken cutlet as an add on was good! Very spacious and beautifully decorated restaurant. Now, the service is why I'm only giving it three stars. We show up to our reservation and they asked if we thought we could be out by a certain time? Since when are we enforcing time limits on customers, especially those with reservations? And while the waiter was nice enough, they didn't return to check in on us that often. We had to flag down others for help. Also all I ordered to drink was a Coke and it took forever to come. For all of these reasons I'm not exactly in a rush to go back but I'm willing to try out their other locations. read more

Tucked away and worth the find! This little gem was near an errand I was running and glad I found it. The team members are all great! They take pride in their restaurant's offerings, as they should. My server was wonderful, offering suggestions to this first-timer. I started with a Volcano Roll - hearts of palm substituting for fish. Well balanced and delicious. Next was broccoli "beef" - fresh broccoli and shitake "steak" with mushrooms really balanced the dish. I ended with something so unnecessary and so wonderful, I'm glad I did it: The sticky toffee pudding. Just pure delight. It was relatively quiet when I was there. I could see how it could get a bit noisy if it were crowded. But even so, the people who visit are friendly and I ended up having a great conversation with the table next to me. I'll be back. I'm not exactly local, but it's definitely worth the trip! Planta is on my faves list now! read more

Highlight of our trip to NY! Just one word-- spectacular! This restaurant was very close to our hotel; given how frequently this came up in our searches, we ended up making an excellent decision. We got the mint lemonade and What are you waiting for, and for starters it was the 1000 layer crispy potato with caviar and bang bang broccoli. Vegan caviar was Wow. Wasn't too sure about the coconut foam as the nuttiness was overpowering the flavors. Bang Bang Broccoli was superb. The Red Dragon Roll sushi with carrot salmon and spicy miso was excellent-- just too good! The truffle fried rice was mind blowing. It had the right flavors.,The Dan Dan noodles were not as spectacular as all the other items but still good. 100/100 for the variety of items on the menu. Service was also a 100/100. Our waitress was really sweet. Service was very quick! Highly recommend for anyone looking for one of a kind vegan food! read more

Dan Dan noodles, fried mushrooms and general d cauliflower was just OK. Service was quite good. Seated immediately. We were stuffed after these dishes. #vegan #gf #glutenfree #vegetarian read more

Wish I liked this place a little bit more, but for the price and quality, I don't think it was worth it and don't plan to return. I ordered online and the person at the front desk didn't really seem super happy to be there - he just gave me the bag without saying anything. When I got to my hotel room and opened the bag, I saw no napkins, and the food really didn't look like the photos on the website or on Yelp. I got the bang bang broccoli. Sauce came on the side which was nice to prevent sogginess but the broccoli pieces were overly fried and a bit too crunchy. The red dragon roll looked super sad and didn't look or taste as advertised. read more

I've had Planta on multiple occasions. They have great food, tasty mocktails and lovely service. Overall an upscale experience. The food is so good, you don't have to be vegan to enjoy it. I'm a big fan of the crispy rice bites and special rolls. It's fun to try new dishes here and I've never been disappointed. Sometimes they have specials. It's perfect for a date or catching up with friends. read more

Decor has a sophisticated look and nice color scheme. It would be a pretty date spot. The food came out quickly and was tasty. My observation is that rather than closely imitating real meat, I can still feel the food is all plant-based, which doesn't bother me. The beef was chewy but tasted a bit like mushrooms. For the 1000-layer potato, I didn't like the faux cream, but liked that the faux caviar wasn't fishy, and the potatoes were crispy. read more

I'm not vegan or a vegetarian, but every so often I'm encouraged by family to try a vegan restaurant. I admit there are impressive and creative recipes in the vegan world, and this restaurant offers really tasty vegan sushi and other items. Of the things we tried here: Torched and Pressed, Bang Bang Broccoli, Firecracker Wings, Red Dragon Roll, and Hawaiian Crunch - we enjoyed all of them. (Unfortunately, they were out of Spicy Tina Roll.). I will note that the Red Dragon was pretty heavy on the vegan spicy mayo, at the expense of the other flavors. When we ordered, the server told us that the items would come to the table as they were made ready by the kitchen. That was a good reminder, because things did come out at different times, which was fine. The server filled our water glasses a couple of times without us having to ask and he was very patient as we lingered after finishing our meal, even filling our glasses one more time after we had paid the bill. The restaurant is modern and nice inside, but not pretentious. read more

How do I love being able to order anything off a menu without any tweaks!! PLANTA Queen Nomad offers just that as a premier vegan restaurant! And you cannot go wrong with their menu! The cuisine is Asian flair and it does not disappoint. We started with the crispy gyoza and bang bang broccoli and I cannot tell you which was better because both were fantastic. The gyoza had the perfect crunch with the softness of the cabbage filling. The broccoli was seasoned to perfection. For my entree I had the beef and broccoli which was quite satisfying and tasty. There was tofu sprinkled throughout the dish which gave a nice variation of texture but did not really add to the overall flavor of the dish. My husband had the Korean chicken sandwich which I tasted and it was amazing. I'd definitely order that for myself upon return. For dessert we shared an amazing carrot cake that melted in my mouth. It was tremendously flavorful with the right combination of spices. The restaurant on the whole I had two levels. The top is a bit noisier than the downstairs which is where we ate. However much to the set up of many restaurants in tight spaces, tables were quite close to each other. Another small issue I had was the lighting that would change periodically...not sure why. At one point it was so dim I could hardly see my husband across the small table!! Gladly they adjusted it relatively quickly, but it just seemed odd to have changed suddenly. Despite the proximity of the tables and lighting, PLANTA is a must go to especially if you crave vegan Asian fare. read more

I was honestly a skeptic about vegan sushi, but I'm a convert now. A friend recommended this place and the 'crab' in particular is actually wild--it's eerily close to the real thing.

I went to PLANTA for my 21st birthday on 02/17/24, and it is by far my favorite vegan restaurant in New York City. Everything from the atmosphere to the food felt special, and it was such a memorable way to celebrate. The absolute standout for me was the vegan matcha cheesecake, it was genuinely incredible. I'm allergic to dairy, so finding desserts like this can be tough, and this one completely exceeded expectations. Even my sister, who isn't dairy-free, said it was the best cheesecake she's ever had, vegan or not. As someone with a dairy allergy, PLANTA was such a convenient and reassuring find. The menu is thoughtful, the food is flavorful, and you never feel like you're missing out. The servers there were also very charming and super inviting. They also helped out a lot since I'm pretty indecisive sometimes. Huge thank you to my sister and my cousin for taking me here and making my birthday so special, I can't wait to come back next time I'm in New York! read more

I ordered the to go sushi box. Loved the presentation. Box came with chopsticks and all the sauces. It didn't seem like alot for the price but once I received the box, it was actually alot of food. I couldn't finish it in one sitting. My favorite for the watermelon nigiri. Second favorite was the torched and pressed. The crispy rice was good but would have been better if warm in person at the restaurant. The spicy tuna roll, I could have done without. Would order again but skip the spicy tuna roll. read more

If you're looking for a nice spot for Vegan dining, this can fit the bill! We ordered some apps: the "wings" (cauliflower), broccoli, and gyoza. The gyoza pieces are small and don't have much filling. The fried broccoli and sauce were good, but I felt the bang bang broccoli had too much sauce. I ordered the truffle udon. The coconut flavor was strong and the sauce was a bit watery. (I'm guessing they used coconut milk as a substitute for cream). It was udon + 5 pieces of mushrooms. I wouldn't order again. We ate as a party of 7. Unfortunately it was 20 minutes in between the time the first 4 entrees were served at once until the last entree. They seemed to have forgotten one of our orders. Considering we were one of 5 parties in the restaurant on that Friday afternoon, I was disappointed in the service. read more

Came here for all you can eat (Maki Mondays) and had a great time! We had requested a table on the first floor, but weren't able to get it even though we waited and had placed this request in advance as this was for a birthday, but the downstairs seating is still nice. They did tell us we could only have the table for an hour and a half though the service was quite slow and it didn't seem they enforced the time restriction as a result. Overall, we had a great time and the crispy rice and torched and pressed are the best!! read more

My date, who is vegetarian, and I stopped here for our first dinner in NYC this summer. Made reservations and were seated promptly upon arrival. The menu is an intriguing concept with some big hits and a few misses. I particularly enjoyed the Firecracker Roll and General D's Cauliflower. Sometimes it's a little unclear what the food is actually made from, so you may have to follow up with your server if you have any allergies. You'll want to try a few items on the menu, but be careful because the cost can add up on you pretty quickly. I certainly wouldn't mind trying Planta again. read more

Delicious food. The Bang Bang Broccoli, Chicken Fried Mushrooms and kale based salad were all really tasty. The big menu has so many choices you could go here many times without repeating a dish.

We have been here multiple times with friends who were not familiar with vegan food. Now they know how delicious and creative you can be as a vegan without needing to exploit animals just for flavor!

PLANTA Queen Nomad is a vegan restaurant and we were in the mood to eat light before a late dinner. The restaurant is nice with black and white tile floors. Unlike most restaurant, the hostess counter is half way inside the restaurant, past the bar, past 5 small tables. There were about 10 additional tables deeper inside the restaurant. They prefer reservations but the hostess was able to find us a table. She helped us "book a table" and within 2 minutes, we were seated. The table was so small across the bar, so was probably intended for quick drink (as an alternative from sitting at the bar). If I would had known than I would had opted for another restaurant down the street. The restaurant is cute place, lighting was very dim (like some energy saving half-light) for atmospheric reasons which I didn't mind but can be difficult to read the menu. Two of our party were not vegan and couldn't tell that they were having plant based meat!! We also got the al pastor bowl which had a very large serving size and was very tasty! I got the spring rolls and the spicy tuna hand roll and both were good, the presentation was nice but the serving size was small for the price. read more

The food here is OK, nothing spectacular. The best dish is probably the Unagi eggplant nigiri, which tasted shockingly close to unagi with the char. I also got the potatoes, which were also just OK. Similar with the udon, they use a coconut base, which is a very pervasive flavor in the dishes and it almost lends itself to a somewhat sweet taste? I thought the noodles were pretty good in the udon, but I just couldn't get past the coconut flavor and every bite as it starts to become too one note after a while. read more
