Cool experience

Beautiful space with a view of the marina definitely makes for a cool dining experience! Pricy so probably only a one time thing for me - the food was creative, elevated and fresh but was overall more light and refreshing and didn’t super blow me away taste-wise or satisfy me hunger-wise. My favorite dish ordered was the street corn lol. The cocktails were good too. Make sure you make a reservation though

Pros: Beautiful space and view, Super fresh food, Great drinks

Cons: Pricy, Slow service, Need to make a reservation beforehand

Great place for a party of 4 or more

Great variety of tasty food. Beautiful setting overlooking the Marina only if you are with a party of four or more. If it is just the two of you, then it is the noisy bar area for you. You could walk away very full and a little lighter in the wallet.

Cocina

Planta Cocina was an excellent experience.
Their outside patio faces the dock and just has such a relaxing vibe. They pride themselves in sustainable food. The food does not leave you feeling heavy and gross as it’s not oily.
We tried a variety of their dishes and could definitely say the vegan sushi has a different kick to it as they do not use the fake fish products everyone else does. It tastes a lot better in my opinion. All the food tastes very fresh and healthy.
One of my favorite dishes was the 1,000 layer potatoes with a plant based salty caviar.
The queso fundido has a beautiful presentation but the cheese itself is not very special.
We ordered the corn cake that had “dulce de leche” and it was soooo dry. My family is Argentinean and let me tell you, that was not dulce de leche. Props for trying though. Do yourself a favor and get the brownie with ice cream. It was spectacular:)
It is a little pricey but we’ll worth it. Definitely a treat and can’t wait to go again.

Fancy and satisfying

Came here for Sunday dinner. We ordered some cocktails. I think I ordered the Herb one which was delicious but strong. We ordered the mushrooms from robata, street corn, 1000 layer potatoes, the kemanaki (?) rice thing, queso fundido. I think my favorites were the queso and corn. Can skip the rice dish.

For dessert we got the brownie and the tres leches. Both great!!! Light but decadent at the same time. I think I was the most impressed with their desserts.

Very glam environment. Make a reservation.

Food from HEAVEN 😭💚

If there was a dish that knew how to steal your heart over and over again with every bite, all the food on the menu would be that dish. Absolutely nothing I tried was mediocre. Every single dish exceeded my expectations and blew my mind, body, and soul away. Epic date night spot or a place to enjoy with friends and family. Reservations might be helpful. Save room for dessert - that horchata cheesecake is bliss made by angels.

Also the dishes are really meant to be shared. It’s not necessary but sharing is caring. There is so much passion and love in every single bite. Go with many people so you can try everything.

One of the best…

This place checks off all the boxes. Great food, great ambience, great overall dining experience. The restaurant has this cool, modern and trendy appeal as soon as you enter. I sat at the bar and started off with the “Unagi Eggplant Nigiri” which was simply amazing. I also had the “Torched & Press”, an avocado roll with a miso truffle glaze which was equally delicious. Lastly, I tried the “Black Garlic Tofu” which was dressed in the most savory and delicious dressing. This restaurant is a 100% must try.

Pros: 100% plant based , Cool vibe

Cons: Crowded, Pricey (but worth it)

Amazingly Delicious Vegan Restaurant!!

If you’re looking for a great plant based restaurant, Planta Cocina, in Marina del Rey is a must try! It’s located right on the marina, the ambiance is lovely and casual with outdoor seating looking out over the marina, and the food is amazing and entirely plant based. My all time favorites are the Crispy Rice, 1,000 Layer Crispy Potatoes, and the Bang Bang Broccoli! But you can’t go wrong no matter what you order, because everything is delicious, and dishes are great for sharing too, so you can try a lot of different dishes! Reservations are recommended.

Pros: Food is delicious!, Excellent service , Great ambiance

Drool

Everything is to drool for! I went to the one in South Beach no we doing have to go as far 😜 I’m so happy this location is now open. The drinks are delicious! I got the HERB YOUR ENTHUSIASM & the MEZ-CAL ME MAYBE, very different from one another but both tasty. For food I ordered the DRAGON ROLL, AVOCADO LIME TARTAR and the UDON NOODLES. I’ll definitely be back again to try the rest of the menu!

Pros: All plant based, Many options , Made with love
