Wanted to place an order on Ubereats, but they didn't have any macarons on there. I called the store to see if I could place the Ubereats order and also place an order on their website for the macarons. And have the macarons included in the Ubereats bag, but for some reason they are not able to just put the macarons in the bag. Decided to not place the Ubereats order all together.
Stopped in for something comforting and left very happy. The grilled cheese sandwich was simple but done right--perfectly toasted bread with gooey, melty cheese and that golden, crispy exterior that hits the spot every time Comfort food at its best. The real standout for me was the mochi kouign amann--crispy, buttery layers on the outside with that chewy mochi texture inside Sweet, indulgent, and totally unique. If you haven't tried one before, this alone is worth the visit. Bonus points for offering vegan options as well, which is always appreciated and makes this a great spot for mixed-diet groups Great quality, thoughtful menu, and clearly a place that cares about what they're putting out. I'll definitely be back to try more!
Took me two days to savor and enjoy my chocolate and custard Kouign Amann pastries. Besides the pastries I enjoyed their hot mocha latte with whipped cream. Cute little place with a friendly counterperson. Clean and organized.
Incredible food! Healthy options for those looking for alternatives to meat - drinks are delicious and absolutely worth the money to eat here try the chicken bites with BBQ sauce if you're into those. Big thank you to Chelsea for making some bomb garlic fries, best Ive ever had, and Mia for making my tiramisu latte SO GOOD! Love the people here, always friendly and great customer service
La Tour Cafe in Ward, which was formerly just their Planted cafe, offers a delicious array of cafe items, many of which are still plant-based! I visit somewhat often for their drinks, particularly the Mint Water (minty and slightly sweetened) and Paradise Tea (similar to a plantation iced tea). I've tried their plant-based macarons and kouign-amann as well, and both are delicious but slightly pricey. The price is reasonable though, considering they are made of vegan ingredients and are almost exact replicas of their non-vegan counterparts, so I'd highly recommend to anyone looking for a plant-based treat! I stopped by for lunch for the first time, and I wish I had tried it sooner! I was so impressed by their Wagyu Pho-ggie, a unique and absolutely genius creation combining pho flavors into a sandwich. The beef was so tender and perfectly marinated, and the sauce was also very flavorful with a bit of spice. And of course, their bread is as soft and delicious as you'd expect from La Tour. Before you think this seems expensive at $21, note that each half of the sandwich is actually quite large--I shared the meal with someone else, and it was more than enough for both of us. We ordered online but ended up dining at one of the few tables in the cafe. I love that there's options for seating both indoors and outdoors, as the surrounding area is nice and clean! Can't wait to go back and try more lunch items!
This is now a regular La Tour Cafe since my review, and introduced a wider variety of options supported by La Tour's larger menu. If you're vegan or vegetarian, this will still be a great stop, and includes many options for you omnivore friends as well. Most importantly, the food is still delicious!
Staff friendly and helpful! Lots of free parking available close to the store. Indoor and outdoor seating available! My favorites are always the garlic fries that come out hot and tasty and the kouign amans! They have a variety of flavors like original, maple and apple! These are SO good but best if you take it home and toast it :) Oh and delicious drinks like teas, lemonade, and coffees! Must try!
This was my first time coming here! I always saw it in passing when walking around my coworking space so I decided to finally try it! There were so many things on the menu I was so curious about such as their planted burger, falafel banh mi, etc. BUT they also have specials so once I saw the specials, I had to re-think what I was going to get. I ended up getting the falafel banh mi! It was good BUT they had a watercress and tofu banh mi special and my friend and I split half and half so I liked that even better! Atmosphere - Well lit and the color scheme is nice and neutral. They have only like 2 or 3 tables inside so it can get full fast but they do have outdoor seating which is nice. We sat outside because it was a nice day and there was a nice breeze so it wasn't too hot. Also there's always dogs passing by so that was fun! Service - They are friendly and patient as my friends and I were so indecisive for a bit. They answered all our questions about the food as well. Cost - Ranges if you get a drink and/or food, $5 - $20. In addition to food, they have pastries (like the kouign-amann and canelé - they have different flavored canelé and they're so cute. They are really bite size so keep that in mind.) Parking - Street parking or park in the Whole Foods structure or the parking structure across from Whole Foods where the movie theatre is. Location - It's next to Whole Foods, on the same side as Holey Grail. I definitely want to come here again to try their other foods especially the planted burger and whatever specials they end up having.
I got a plant based smash burger and my friend got a plant-based chicken salad. Good food at reasonable prices. I like that they have something for everyone both vegan or not. Cute little café space to catch up with friends. I didn't get their fries today, but those also go really good with the burger. I like the sauce. Service is friendly and fast.
My friends picked up some burgers, fries, pastries, and drinks from here. It was my first time to try out the food here and it was amazing. The double burger was filling and didn't leave me feeling bloated at all. The fries were flavorful (I think it was the truffle fries). I had the lihing lemonade, which was refreshing. We also had the kougiman. I can't remember which one I ate, but I remember the flavor and it was delicious! I'm planning to go there soon for lunch and I can't wait!
I'm not a vegetarian or vegan, but what a great spot to try out that type of food!! The location is great with parking just a block over at Whole Foods and it's always a great time to walk in the Ward area. When you walk in, the staff is friendly and informative, and the inside boasts a clean and fresh feeling. The food adds to that as it tastes great but you don't feel like you're about to go into hibernation. A much appreciated option for a quick vegetarian fix.
The Turkey and Sun-dried Tomato Panini for $14.99 is not good!! The sun-dried tomato is a speck of a sauce ... I asked the cashier if they forgot the tomatoes ... He says , no, here is the sauce .... Uhhhh.. and made me feel like I did something wrong by asking the question... You know when they all start talking...and looking at you... Here's some pics...
Refreshing drink in Honolulu, Hawaii... We were between lunch and dinner and noticed that we hadn't gone to Planted by La Tour Cafe... yet... Located at Ward Village, we found free shared parking and walked over. It happened to be Happy Hour where customers get a free canele with ppurchase of a large drink! Yippee! I got a Li hing Lemonade and a chocolate candle. Yay! It was just right! Now that I know where this cozy takeout place, I will be back! Support a local plant-based restaurant!

I have been here twice for a quick bite and the food tasted fresh both times. Located in Kakaako near a few other small food locations, this small chain cafe is good for a quick snack. There are a few small tables inside and out for seating, and there are a few parking garages nearby for free. I ordered the Lychee Lemonade, the French Dip, and Planted Butter Mochi Kouign Amann. Overall a bit pricy, but the food was delicious! The drink was refreshing but may be too sweet for some.. The pastry had the perfect amount of sweetness and crispy/flakiness- but I wish I could've had it heated up a bit! I wasn't sure about the French dip when ordering it, but it was really good! The dip had good flavor that complimented the beef and bread perfectly! It did take about 10-15 minutes to come out of the kitchen though- I had to refrain from eating the entire Kouign Amann while waiting. read more
The last time I came here it was only plant based options so was nice to see a bit of a mix now! I ate inside, it was clean and quiet. I was the only one there. The burger was good, and I'm glad I ordered the sauce on the side because it wasn't my favorite and happy to skip on those added calories. The fried green tomatoes were just ok...they were kind of bland and you didn't get many of them... 4 to be exact. The sauce that came with those was ok... I liked it better than the burger sauce. The person taking my order was friendly. I'd come back and try something else on the menu for a quick bite. read more

Great food at a pretty good price! We've been meaning to try this place for a while but haven't because parking is hard, but we were finally in the area. I got the fried green tomato sandwich which was very filling despite the deceivingly thin look. We also got a li hing lemonade which was exactly as described and delicious, and a mint water, which was the sleeper hit! It had a very strong flavor of mint herbs and tasted much better than the swampy look made it seem. I don't think i would make a special trip or fight the ward parking to come here, but if Im already in the area I'll be back! read more

No, I am not Vegan or ... or ... All I wanted was 2 6 pk boxes on assorted macarons but I wanted them early. The LA Tour (Nimtz) just happened to open its doors later than I expected. So, I ended up at Planted. (Kudos to Irene M for her review= jogged my memory to check on Planted's schedule) I head to Planted and what a pleasant surprise. It was Sunday morning early (like 9 am) and the staffer (I failed to get his name) introduced me not only to the gluten free macarons but the menu which addressed Vegan and Pescatarian I think. He also tells me that since they opened, they have at least 50 people who are "regulars" on their way to/from their work daily. Who knew? I've not tried any of their food offerings so I can't comment. I will say that I will head back there SOON (I can walk over from my office) to give their salads a try. Fun Fact- Prices posted for the meals are reasonable. The macarons price out @ $3.50 each and no discount for the Baker's Dozen concept. So bottom line is I have been and continue to live under a rock. But I am learning.... slowly but surely read more
Keeping you planted... La Tour has this great concept and Planted has found a new home in the Ward area in the retail section of 'A'ali'i and what a welcome sight it is as learning the closure of their 'Āina Haina location this more town location works perfectly for me though during their soft opening was open til 4pm didn't work well with me. Now open until 6pm is a welcome sight as I took advantage and stopped by form some sips which majority are lemonade, tea and coffee I was thrilled to learn from the staff that during July's Happy Hour offering which is after 4pm is a free Canele mochi with a large drink or entree purchase...oohhhh!!! Sold! I ordered a large li-hing lemonade and decided on a Matcha Canele and what a perfectly not too sweet but the mochi made it a delightful touch which paired perfectly with my li hing lemonade though this cozy shop has just a few tables it was definitely a great spot to chill and relax and will be back for my favorite Mushroom Dip and Tomato Soup. Thank you! read more
If you have your doubts about this place because it's plant based, don't! Everything is delicious! And this is coming from someone who loves meat. Their sandwiches are delicious and their umami broth soup is extra savory with extra umami! Their desserts are also really good it tastes sinful! They also have drinks which are so tasty and refreshing! They're located on Ward by Whole Foods and the movie theater with plenty of parking across the street. Check them out because you won't regret it! read more
I love the items at La Tour and when I saw the new "Planted by La Tour" as I was heading for Cino, I was surprised to see it opened here. I don't mind eating Vegan or Vegetarian food so the next morning after church on Father's Day to check it out. It wasn't busy early Sunday morning. They open early at 8 am but closes at 6 pm. A lot of their customers were probably from the condo or near by businesses. I love mint water so I can get mint water here in town! They have all kind of sandwiches to try. I do like mushroom sandwich but I wanted to try the two other interesting sandwiches: Artichoke Katsu & Fried Green Tomato. Both were very good. I got a free macaron they gave in celebration of Farher's Day with purchase of a large specialty drink. They have garlic fries which I got. It was on a healthier side and not oily with I think dried garlic on top. The worker suggested the next time to get Aloha Tamago Tartine Instead of egg they use tofu. I forgot what he said about how it was made, but there was seasoning that made it taste like eggs. I'm curious to try it! They have salads, sides, drinks, tartine, soup, burgers, macarons and other desserts. They have symbols next to the menu items indicating customer favorites, spicy, coconut, soy or sesame incase of any food allergies. Looking forward to come back for more Mint water and Mushroom Dip sandwich. It's best to park in the theatre parking closer to restaurant across Rinka Restaurant side. read more

Heard great things about this place, and also been supporting the La Tour storefront in Nimitz, thought I would give this place a try. The lemonades were consistent with lots of flavor throughout consumption. If you're feeling adventurous try the Chee Mui-Ade which comes with half lychee lemonade and half li hing mui lemonade. As for the food, between the 3 of us, we bought 1 of each sandwich to try, plus the grilled cheese and tendies with fries. Honestly, the best item were the fries. The breads were all on point, so I won't discredit them for that. But the fillings in each of the sandwiches needed work in a sense. I think it was a matter of texture overload for me. The grilled cheese consistency reminded me of play-doh. The falafel was dry. The fried green tomato was mushy. The artichoke katsu was stringy. And the chicken tenders had an interesting after taste that I couldn't shake. The ''Big Mac sauce" that came with the it was very thick and didn't want to come out of the container when the tenders were dipped into it. At least we were able to dine in together with an AC-filled environment with clean tables and chairs. The service was alright. The cashier/counter girl started off friendly. Then when phone orders and other patrons came through, the level of service started to fizzle out. Not horribly, just noticeable that it felt like she was in a stressful situation. Nevertheless, at least we gave it a try. Maybe the vegetarian/vegan life isn't quite for us. Though I commend them for being in a convenient location that's easily accessible with different parking garages nearby. read more
So one of my friends is vegan so we had to try Planted. Lana and hoku provided great recommendations and customer service. I got the following items that were really good. Terri burger Garlic fries Chee-mui-aid Cole brew w/ sweetener, oat milk, and vanilla read more

Listen, I am a fan of La Tour Cafe already, I'm very biased; I also try to eat Vegan when I can to calm my acne. So when I first visited La Tour Cafe's old Kahala location and noticed they were helping soft launch Planted, safe to say... I needed gas money to make more trips from central Oahu to Kahala. Thank goodness they opened this place which is a lot closer. Of course if I liked it in Kahala, I'm gonna love it again over here since it is the same company and same plant-based concept. There's seating indoors and outdoors and since the shop opened in the most recent months and the building it's in is one of the newer building in Ward, everything is clean. The biggest downside for the location is finding the bathroom, luckily they draw out a diagram for you to use. I am a big fan of the artichoke tonkatsu burger and my husband enjoyed his teriburger as well. Wish there were more side options, but granted we weren't looking for a large meal at this time. Looking forward to coming back and trying more plant-based food and drinks. Also, thank you for letting Komori chill and eat with us! read more
To save the scroll: veggie, vegan, or carnivore, Planted is bomb. La Tour is great. They were even better back when they first opened ages ago (back when fries came with burgers), but that's not necessarily relevant here. What is relevant is that Planted is fantastic, well priced, and provides a good selection of offerings. Plus, each entree got a little mini mochi. I can appreciate that. Ordered the teri burger and the nuggets and fries. Burger was well composed and nicely charred. Nuggets were crisp. Fries were great as always (La Tour has hands down the best fries, and yes, I know they have a fancy name). Got a butter mochi and a maple mochi. I love the shape of the butter mochi because it gave crispy edges all around. At around $27 for a lunch out in the area, that's great. Will be back again, read more

Had to try the new plant based version of La Tour! I was looking for a quick bite to eat in Ward and Planted is the perfect spot for a quick grab-and-go. There is limited indoor and outdoor seating so if you go, don't count on seats or tables. I ordered an artichoke katsu sando and it was delicious! The artichoke was freshly fried and covered in katsu sauce with crunchy sliced cabbage. It was nice for a quick bite. It also came with a small sweet treat. Overall, it's a good place to stop for a snack. There is lots of parking in the ward structure or the Whole Foods lot. The service is quick. Nothing fancy or complicated read more

Got the fried green tomato sandwich and was expecting it to look similar to the picture but it was a little deceiving. (this is one half to show the inside) It still tasted good but was definitely not $13 worth of food... read more
Cute little spot for a quick plant-based bite. I easily ordered a fried green tomato sandwich online and it was all ready and perfectly crispy still by the time I got it. The cornmeal crunch was toothsome and the sauces flavorful, and overall it was pretty satisfying. I'm curious to try some of their other items next time like the crispy chick'n salad with fried lotus chips and artichoke katsu sando :) read more
