Teriyaki bowl never disappoints me

Their teriyaki bowl is so good. Nothing mind-blowingly special, but it's reliable, filling and tasty. I have ordered take-out and also eaten in and this place never disappoints me. Price is a bit high but it's a full vegan place and the decor and vibe is comfy and "trendy" so it's to be expected.

Nice

Caesar salad and wrap were good! Soy/Oat/Almond milk available for coffees. Expensive enough for a self service place but food was delicious.

Reduced Menu - Still yummy

This was my first visit to this branch. I've been to the other one a few times before over 5 years ago. They got rid of the burgers and basically only have wraps, bowls, and salads. They still have desserts. My wrap was actually quite yummy. I had the caesar wrap, which had a nice dressing with crunchy croutons inside. When I went, half the menu was sold out. You have to order through a machine, but the card part was malfunctioning a bit. Overall still a good restaurant.

Pros: Caesar wrap, desserts, all vegan

Cons: no more burgers, funky self-order machines, so-so desserts

Yum

Came here for the steak wrap, it was good! Most similar to steak vegan product I’ve had. I would return.

Friendly staff and great food!

The food here is amazing! I got the Mac and cheese and it came with these cauliflower bites on top that were really good. Very easy to locate in hongdae. Workers spoke English, so easy to communicate. The matcha latte was good, but could have been mixed a bit better.

New menu is a bit disappointing.

Vegetarian food — but weak produce supply

One struggle about Seoul is that vegetarian restaurants are typically carb heavy, with low produce variety in dishes. That’s how I felt about this place. It’s serviceable, but, if you’re used to vegetarian food in a place with great produce, like Mexico or California, it may taste a little lifeless.

So damn delicious bowls! Hope to try the wraps some day. Also great and filling pudding, big portions - yay. Easy and efficient ordering system, perfect if you don’t like talking to people 💅🏼

Excellent

I don’t know if the menu changes but it was very good. I tried the tempeh bowl which came at a good temperature (not a cold salad bowl)! It was reach in flavor and affordable 👌
I like the fact they didn’t try to make it too flavorful, it’s well dressed, well cooked and well seasoned. I don’t like it when there’s a mix of different seasonings and this meal was perfect for me. Next time, I might try their falafel bowl or eggplant salad.
This place is good for people who like European food where it’s not too spicy, and kindof homemade meal (but better)😅

Pros: Affordable , English speaker, Toilets in the restaurant 👌

Menu overhaul is disappointing

I've been coming to plant for many years (long before this branch opened) and am so disappointed with the recent menu changes. The burgers have been slowly disappearing and are now completely gone, as are the pasta dishes. Only salads, wraps and 'rice bowls' are available, which makes it feel little different to any other salad shop. I used to be confident taking non-vegans here for the excellent European/global foods, but I doubt I'll do that now that's it's just salad bowls.

I've also felt the prices have been going wild for a while. The new menu has overall lower prices but is half rice. 7,000 for add-on fries? And the garlic sauce isn't even available.

Website opening hours (in english) are better than maps - great food and fast service in English. Has lunch, cakes, drinks. Get the cauli wings and steak and beans wrap, warning - big serving.

Sumptuous Meals

Love the Thai curry, close to non spicy, slightly on the sweet side. Ratatouille is flavourful. Best Burrito wrap.

Pros: Clean and cosy ambience , Spacious seating area, English speaking staff

Cons: Nil

Best cake I’ve had in my life

I went to this place a few times while in Seoul. The cakes are incredible and the pumpkin ginger cookie cream cake is the best I have ever had. Coffees are also great. Savoury foods are pretty good as well but the cake is definitely the highlight.

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.

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.
