Delicious vegan comfort food!

Went here with a group and was pleasantly surprised! Plenty of options (mostly western) but everything I had was great! I tried the cauliflower wings (delicious!), caesar salad wrap (HUGE portion!, and snickers tart (yum!). they had cute merch too that I wish I bought! I’ll most definitely be back 😉

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

I had the banana split shake and vegan meat burger with wasabi mayo and fries. Definitely the best burger I’ve had in a while.

Edit: I’ve ordered take out from them at least 4 times already and I’ve tried the tofu Caesar wrap which exceeded my expectations. The chili with cashew cheese sauce is delicious on top of fries, which I’ve ordered a few times.


— back 2 years later! Damn those Buffalo cauliflower wings are spicy but delicious!!

— Pistachio blueberry cake is heavenly!!

Perfect for a break from Korean food

I have known PLANT for years, with the first restaurant at Itaewon. The food is always delicious, it is nice sometimes to have Western food when you are tired of Korean food.

Plantbased international food

Laid back eatery with delicious plantbased takes on International classics from an open kitchen, as well as a wide selection of cakes. My only slight complaint was that the portion sizes are on the small side, and that the eggplant in the otherwise really flavorful moussaka was a bit undercooked.

Great place with amazing food. I've mostly ordered food via Shuttle. It's one of the few vegan places there.

Not value for money

Limited Allium free menu and food served is poor in taste and presentation .
Also given seat just outside the open kitchen , clothes stink after this meal and Staff not friendly when request for seat change. Will not visit again.
Overpriced food , not worth the visit.

Pros: None

Cons: Stinky seat outside kitchen , Lousy food , Unfriendly staff

Yum!!

We had the mushroom burger, moussaka, and sweet jalapeño cauliflower. All of it was fantastic, but especially the mushroom burger!! A bit on the pricier side but I enjoyed it.

Delicious

Great ambience, very tasty food, nice staff. Highly recommended!

Edit:
I spilt my drink and was immediately brought a new one for which I didn't have to pay. Extremely friendly staff!

Been there five times in two weeks!

Surprisingly awesome and yum!!!

First I was hesitating to come by this place because being in South Korea i try to go to place with korean food and not western food.

So this place serves western food and was also close my Air bnb. So i gave it a shot and shouldn't be disappointed at all!!

Went there several times!

Had the best Cesar Chicken Wrap. Savory, creamy but yet fresh!

Having an open Kitchen you can watch them preparing your food and drinks.

Also the drinks and desserts are very yummy and well hand-crafted!

Place is chill with big openings and also places outside.

Really a awesome place in Hongdae to also relax, grab a drink and have some super tasty dishes and food.

Many locals visiting this place also.

Pros: Yum!, Variety

Nice cakes, questionable food

The cakes were awesome, but the food was a bit strange.

We had a chicken burger with fries and a sandwich with ham and chips on the side.

The chicken in the burger was good and tasty, but the overall combination of the ingredients felt not right. And the stack was too high - it was hard to consume.
Ham in the sandwich has the taste of a vegetable patty, and not the mock meat. And the sandwich consists only of 4 ingredients or so, so it's a bit boring.

But the fried potatoes were exceptional.

Actually really delicious!

I was a bit skeptical seeing the prices and the menu. After tasting the hummus salad and the falafel salad bowl, I can understand the good reviews. The taste is very delicious, the falafel bowl even has a pretty authentic Lebanese/Mediterranean taste with pickled beets and tahini.
I recommend it!

Pros: Great taste

Reliably delicious

Stayed near this restaurant and visited repeatedly - chia pudding a great option for a late morning snack, and delicious naind.

Nice vibe and great falafel

2nd visit and really came back for the falafel which is super tasty. This time took the wrap which has also humus and pickled beetroot inside. I like the atmosphere of the restaurant, always a mix of locals and foreigners. They also have a cozy terras.

Always good!

Plant opened it’s Yeonnam brand a while ago. The menu is slightly different from Itaewon. Nice terrace area with big folding window can be plus. Foods are tasty, and staffs are always friendly.

Super yum food

The food was outstanding, big portions and really well seasoned. The rigatoni were to die for. The mushroom burger was a 11 out of 10. The restaurant seems to be fully manage by westerns which explains the international menu. Nothing seems Korea but its what u need after many days here. The staff was not rude, but very in they own world, which is not a bad thing. Fully managed by women which made me proud of them (they were also quite young so they are really talented).

Nice food

The food was very nice, good portions and also fairly priced. However, although open till 22.00. Around 20.30 they start cleaning, shut off the heating and open the windows (in winter!). We literally fled the restaurant because we were freezing. Changed our order for dessert to ‘to-go’, since the staff insisted they kept the windows wide open ‘cause they were cleaning the kitchen. Very strange!
