It truly is somewhere you can bring anyone and they will love it too. Everything we got was amazing but my all time favorites are the summer rolls, crispy gyoza, and the torched and pressed roll. Great drinks too.

This is a review of their chosen delivery service, DoorDash, and their customer service…read more I really don't understand why anyone does business with DoorDash at this point. They are the worst of the worst, really scraping the bottom of the barrel as far as delivery services go. Once again, DoorDash abruptly canceled my order without a word about a refund. That company is trash. And this will be the last time I patronize PLANTA, either for delivery or in person food. I'm sorry, but if you take my money and give me nothing, you don't get another chance. Beware before ordering delivery from here. Their delivery partner is a total scam artist. UPDATE: DoorDash refused to refund my money, saying I needed to contact PLANTA, and PLANTA's worthless automated system made it impossible to reach a human, repeatedly refusing to give me a refund or connect me to a person. Nice little scam they've got going. Do NOT order from here.

Only been here once so far, but planning my next trip here already!! I LOVED the torta. If you take…read moreanything from this review, it's that the torta is good. The torta is the bomb. I don't even usually like sandwiches all that much (with some notable exceptions), but this one was AMAZING. So tasty! So flavorful! Surprisingly light! I also tried the elotes and was sadly underwhelmed. Didn't have much flavor, mostly just tasted like bland, sourish vegan cheese/whatever was on it. Corn could've been fresher, too, or maybe more cilantro/some other herbs or alliums or something would've helped. Pretty big portion, though, for an appetizer - I think it would be shareable between two. Another nit is that the coasters on the table didn't look super clean and were a bit sticky. Service was friendly and fairly attentive, and the inside is cute and has a casual, fun ambiance. Will definitely be back for mi amor, the torta.

Always happy coming to Veggie House. We have gotten to go orders, but mostly dined in. Always great…read moreexperiences! The food always comes out hot and fresh with large portions. Our favorite order is to get the vegan beef fried rice, soy beef and broccoli, and the vegan orange chicken (made with mushrooms). The staff is always pleasant as well!

Another great experience and Bloom. Love this plant based restaurant offering creative menu items…read morethat anyone can enjoy! The inside of the restaurant is designed very elegantly & the staff is superb! All the dishes we tried were great, from thr hand rolls to the gnocchi. Recommend a stop here even if your primary diet isn't vegan you will not be disappointed. Pro Tip: try the desserts as well while visiting. Also very creative and satisfying!

I'm giving Bloom 4 stars instead of 3 because they are a plant-based restaurant; however, I have…read moredined here several times and there have been short comings of one kind or another on the past few occasions - either food expectations or service seem to fall short of a high-priced restaurant experience. My main grudge on this night was the pour of sparkling wine (brut). Champagne flutes are typically six ounces. A standard pour of wine is five ounces. That means a pour of sparkling wine should stop about 1 inch from the rim of the glass*. Not so this time. I thought the bartender had emptied the bottle and was going to continue his pour with a new bottle, but no - that was not the case (I was seated at the bar.) I had gotten only about 3 out of 5 ounces of a $16 glass of wine. Not cool since every patron is charged an automatic 20% hospitality surcharge per check. (It looked more like a pour for a toast at a wedding!) Other than this major lapse in bartending etiquette - and yes, I considered saying something at the time but did not, hence, this review - my meal was fine (with the exception of the onion tart - not what I expected an onion tart to be: go with the crab cake!). *Note: I have worked part-time in F&B from 1994 to 2024 in all manner of restaurants/catering/country clubs, etc., including as a BASSET certified bartender, so I know what a pour of wine should be (and look like) in a standard champagne flute!

Delicious casual vegan meal. Had a short few hours in Chicago and came here for dinner. Wife and I…read moreeach got an appetizer-I got their buffalo drum sticks which were somehow gluten free and delicious. For my entree, I got the bimbibab or however you spell it, with tofu. Would have liked a meat alternative but other than those drumsticks, which are brought in frozen and premade and therefore, the "meat" cannot be used in an entree-only the tofu was gluten free. Although I mixed in tamari and sirahcha, this was delicious. The hot pit crisped the rice perfectly and the veggies and tofu were cooked really well. We also got their raw berry cheese cake and a scoop of soy vanilla ice cream for dessert. The crust of the cheesecake wasn't really good but everything else was excellent. Service was great with a lot of good suggestions and he was very friendly. The place isn't much to describe. Just a very casual interior with an Alice in wonderland motif. Cute, but not a place you come for the ambiance. You come for the food and service.

I remain a huge fan but ordering in last night was a disappointment. I'm sharing this as feedback…read morebecause I hope this was one-off. The kung pao that I so adore here had barely any sauce or flavor this time; and the rice served with it didn't seem fresh - it was clumpy and dried up. The summer rolls were excellent!

I wish I lived here because I would come all the time…read more When we walked in we were the only people there which at first worried us but it ended up being the best dinner of our vacation. The food was amazing. We got the "frychos" which were like loaded fries and it was the probably one of the most flavorful and fun vegan dishes I've ever had. Ofc we also had to get the vegan deep dish and it was also really good. Since we were the only ones there we chatted quite a bit with the bartender and he was super friendly. We ended up putting a movie on the bar tv and watching that while we ate. They also had boardgames and free pinball and we played battleship while waiting for our pizza. If you have the chance to check this place out, you definitely should!! The bartender said they were usually busier because it's also a concert venue, but it was a nice day so we think people were going places they could eat outside. But quiet or hoppin this place would be an 11/10! :)

Totally 100% vegan, but I heard they were closing before the end of November…read more We came here on a Friday night around 5pm. They do allow children and have live shows at night. I got a beer, Maplewood IPA, and vegan nachos with "beef". They were very wet, they also had mixed greens on top which were nice but weird. For my main meal I got a fried chicken sandwich which had tempeh as the protein. It was very thick and dense but tasty. It came with French fries. My partner got a sour beer, and a chicken parm sandwich with French fries. He reported his was also very thick / dense.

Lincoln Ave., and between the menu and the name (yes, the elephant caught my attention), I knew I had to check it out. There's plenty of street parking in the area, I went on a Sunday, so meters were free. The interior is bright, green, and inviting, with lots of seating and great natural light coming in from the front windows. There's also outdoor seating, but it was a bit too cold the day we went, so we stayed inside. Service is counter-style, and the staff was very knowledgeable about the menu. It's fairly simple, but still fun and satisfying. I ordered an Impossible burger, tater tots, and a strawberry almond milk smoothie. My friend got fries, so I was able to try both. After over 40 days without fried food, I was especially excited for the tots and they did not disappoint. Overall, the food was good and solid across the board. Nothing that completely blew me away, but definitely satisfying. If you're vegan or vegetarian and craving a classic burger experience, this is a great option. The smoothie was good as well, though I personally prefer fruit-forward smoothies with lighter juices, so the almond milk base wasn't quite my favorite, but it still complemented the meal nicely. Overall, if you're looking for a casual sit-down spot with a cute atmosphere and a solid Impossible burger at a reasonable price, Elephant + Vine is a great choice. 3.5 out of 5 stars.
