I used to work near this Laughing Planet, and would frequent it occasionally. I really enjoyed the bibimbap bowl -- it wasn't exactly authentic Korean food -- but it was tasty, and healthy, and filling. And it introduced me to no-meat meals, which is a habit I've tried to continue over the years. Although I'm no longer nearby enough to visit often, I'm still a fan. Recently, I saw that Laughing Planet is offering SNAP meals. They are not accepting donations, and instead encouraging people to donate to the local food bank. That's a classy move. read more

amazing place to get a smoothie/food & sit down to work/hang out. GREAT FOOD! and an amazing smoothie. wish it was a bit larger for the price but it was so lovely. i finished my whole bowl, ladies at the desk were amazing & brought food out to my table. easy connect wifi, they were playing some awesome vietnam era music LOL it was a vibe. great place to sit outside or inside with AC and enjoy the atmosphere! read more

I probably wouldn't opt for many things on the menu here, but did stop in for the Thai Burrito, which is a Snack Size Burrito with some nice flavors and no protein. Good for a pinch and was ready pretty quickly. read more

Friendly service and very clean, hearty burritos that travel well, and very salty soup! Great place for lunch

Laughing once was a solid, high quality fast food outlet with decent, inviting decor and professional staff. Those days are over. Today, what you'll encounter is slow, slovenly, dispassionate employees who greet customers with the trademarked company phrase, "So what do you want?" Nice. Food arrived in a basket, although I had ordered the food to go. I reaffirm: yes, please. In a box. Said employee then, directly in front of me, opens a small to go box, inverts the basket, and plop!, upside down goes my lunch. Nice. I was too hungry to ask for my money back. The food turned out to be cold, not even luke warm. At an absolute minimum, Laughing Planet could take their 'freshly made,' fast food and put it in the microwave for 30 seconds. But no. Those days are also over. Avoid Laughing Planet at all costs. read more

The bowls are pricey but worth it. Their soup and salad is where it is at! Everything is fresh and wonderful quality. There is a reason why it's a Portland staple! Check it out! I would eat there every day if I could. :) read more

Loooooved this spot!!!! I needed a healthy food break after eating my way through Portland and we just happened to walk by this spot. I was worried because there was not a soul in side LOL. Usually that's a bad sign for a food spot...but no no. This place was delicious! Excellent service, since I had never been here, I had a bunch of questions. The person who helped me was super nice and answered all my annoying menu questions with ease. She really helped me pick out what I wanted. Their menu is actually pretty big, lots of great options! I went with the Kale salad. I think it had a cooler name but I can't remember lol. It was super fresh and tasty! Loved all the added ingredients, it was just a well thought out salad compilation. My veggie quesadilla was pretty good too. I think it had portobello mushrooms in it which are my fav. So, wins all around! Great spot! read more

I'm vegetarian (I know, I know, but hear me out) and while I can find good food anywhere in Portland, it sometimes is difficult to find good healthy food. Laughing Planet has so many really good options that make me physically feel really good after eating! Highly recommend. read more

Her name: Audrey by the way- pink hair braces- horrible attitude- I have been coming here for more than three years since I live three blocks away order the same thing people know me by name -ordered a take out like I always do-I said may I have a quesadilla and I ordered a small side of chips with a small side of melted aged cheddar dip which is on their menu, -and asked the cashier to repeat it back. It was the same price as it always has been for the last three years I went and picked it up walked home opened the bag. There was no cheese in a white bowl-so I walked back and said my order was mistaken. She said cheese is in the box with the quesadilla. I said sorry about that. I've never seen it in the box so I walk home AND I also I tipped again. I open the box. It is a small plastic container the same used for small salas but with regular cheese off a block cut into15 small slices- cold - I get in my car and drive back. I shown her and she snarks you need to specify and say queso & to which I said I ordered directly off your menu! she goes back-and-forth - I ask may I have your name? She says no I'm not obligated to give it to you. So I clearly knew where this was going -I didn't want an apology. I would of even apologized for not saying it how she wants-but then she says if you want your order right you have to say queso when it says aged melted cheddar and I get unmelted cheese that is not melted & would cost $.75 so not only is my order not match up- but both times I came isitting there so not only and with both encounters but then when I asked for a name and she said I'm not obligated to - because I said I don't feel that I was wrong ordering off your menu- she said our phone cuts and I said I had the representative repeat it back to me . . I enjoy going there even tip 30% on each of my orders an! This is what I received- keep in mind I ordered a small melted aged cheddar cheese with a side of small chips- and an amazing grace burrito which cost 10.00 dollars and added TEMPEH for 3.50 - I payed 18.50- and again a small aged melted cheddar cheese with chips cost 7.50- but she said the serving small size container where they put salas with cold chopped up block cheese cost the same when it's not even on the menu- hard to believe- when the cheese is not even melted! truly she did not like me saying that she messed up because apparently I need to order the way that she Says or I won't get the right food even though she could possibly look at the receipt maybe one of the three times I came in and seen that the price didn't match up when I hand you a $20 bill and you give me a quesadilla and if you would just read the receipt instead of taking the tip but I mean that's a lot to ask... what really was weird. She said the back even agreed that I ordered something. That's not even on the menu. There is no side of cut up cheese. She doesn't have to have any customer service skills, not giving her out is so random to say to a regular-just screams I know I messed up. IF she would've been polite. I would've apologized I will start ordering it as queso. I don't think that a salsa side the size of an inch and a half with 16 small strands of cold cheese would cost seven dollars and then to act like I'm offending her by calmly being polite and asking for her name which is Audrey at the location of 21st NW. Portland. I will never return and I will tell everyone I can that they allow their customers to be treated like that because you have a I'd imagine from the behavior a teenager in the front texting( all three times I came in - yes check your cameras ) like I interrupted her when I originally picked up my order, didn't know what I ordered. did I come back? Didn't check again may have seen the prices don't match up And I've been going three years so if I made a mistake, sure I should've opened the box when she said it was inside I can take that and I will say sorry but i trusted her word my fault agreed- but when this person is trying to argue with you because they're upset about something or their job which I can understand I'm human and literally tipping you when i don't even buy things and then Finally receive a 30% filled cup of cheese and said "this is all we have when it gets late" it was 8 o'clock they close at 10pm I said OK (luckily the homeless woman that was there. I gave her five dollars which Audrey did not want to even open the register to give me change for my the woman after let alone her name of speak volumes of the person I am horrible customer service I'm giving someone else money because it's cold and they're hungry. But she didn't open the register. These are the people that are at the front of your store. I had a recommend do not go to this location. Hopefully locations have more professional people that I don't know. Look at the receipt if someone gets chips and says melted cheddar cheese I don't want cold, chopped up one side, unmelted cheese. horrible needs to be fired. read more

Fresh, clean, healthy and yum! I have always loved laughing planet for a tasty nutritious and fulfilling meal. The service is great - always very nice and friendly. This location is new and isn't busy and the murals inside are adorable. Food came out super fast. It's got a fun ambience that's good for kids. Price is about $15 per person, & you'll leave satisfied. I wouldn't say that it's "omfg" delicious but I often crave it and it's healthy and yummy for me, plus lots of vegan options. I love how colorful the food and whole restaurant experience is. read more

The salad I ordered was good, but overpriced. While I was eating the salad outside, the woman taking g orders, etc started spraying heavy chemical glass cleaner o. The doors very close to where I was eating. When done eating, mentioned to her she should maybe reconsider cleaning glass while someone is eating. Offensive smell. She didn't say sorry, thanks for telling me, just said ok like I was being weird mentioning it. Won't eat there again. read more

The quinoa based harvest bowl with a side of seasonal delicata squash was tasty. The vegan chili was a little bland but perhaps they were erring on the side of caution to cater to all tastes. Cashier was friendly. We'll make sure to visit again on our next trip to Portland! read more

Very tasty pork tacos... not even salty at all which i love! I shoulda ordered two... Also tried the grilled chicken burrito with beans, brown rice with bbq sauce... it was tasty and again, love that their items are not salty! Excellent service! read more

Quality has eroded since august. I've called and reported to management each time. The attached photo shows a piece of hard black plastic that was in my kale salad from a couple of days ago.

A great place to get some healthier eats at a reasonable price. I tried the grilled chicken burrito this time and was pleased with it. The portion size was good and the chicken had good flavor (wasn't dry). It was a plus to have some extra Pico and hot sauce for that extra kick. The staff was also friendly and accommodating when taking the order. read more

This was my third visit to Portland, and although I don't have plans to return I might consider it to have this place again! The food was absolutely delicious. Vegan and non vegan options. Truly nothing in my dish that I could complain about, it was perfect. There are just some restaurants you wish you could take back home with you and this is one of them. read more

Hearty and healthy meals that aren't so guilty (even if you get a burrito haha). I've passed by a couple times when in the area but actually never stopped in. They have an open and clean space and we came near closing but the staff was super kind to give recommendations and let us take our time. We ended up getting a small highway to kale salad, bubba burrito, and paleo bowl with braised beef to share between two people. Initially I was a little worried around the protein portion with my bowl based on other reviews but it was plenty in my order! I am one of those people that prefer kale to arugula or lettuce as my base for salads so I really enjoyed how light the highway to kale salad was and that you could get half portions. The cranberries and pumpkin seeds add a nice touch. I liked the bowl as well and the veggies were cooked well. The burrito was my fave and was super filling. If you're like me I tried adding the braised beef on the burrito and it was super tasty with a mixture of their green and mango salsa. Yum! Overall, the food items were fresh, hearty, and filling without putting me in a food coma. Staff was great and I am curious to try their mushroom tacos and cookies so I will be back another time! As we were waiting for our order there was constantly people coming in for pick up which is always a good sign! read more

5 stars for the black bean hummus, 3 stars for the kale Caesar. I just expected the Caesar to be a bit "caesar-y" .. however, i want this black bean hummus every day of my life. Everything was fresh and would definitely try more salads read more

Usually, when I come in I get ignored....but not like today. Today I was ignored for a good long while. Not even a hello, we will be with you in a moment. Also, since it's a warm day out, they had the AC cranked up and it was very cold. (I didn't think to bring a coat since it's an 80 degree day out) Anyhow, we left and decided to get food at Ling's Garden Chinese food next door and it was a whole different experience. Very welcoming, kind, and fast to say hello. read more

Healthy, delicious and satisfying! Yes, food prepared fast can be all three of these! Laughing Planet creates bowls, burritos, smoothies and a variety of flavorful sauces with lots of Vegan, Vegetarian and Gluten free options making it an easy choice if you are seeking a restaurant that can easily accommodate a variety of needs. And while they have many Mexican and southwestern options, they create bowls and meals with in a variety of flavor palettes like Greek, Thai, Asian, and Italian. Lots of protein choices - chicken, beans, beef, veggie burgers to name a few. Portions are good, not excessive. Prices are on the higher side which is typical when ingredients are fresh. All in all, a great option. Nothing that wows me because I can and do make a lot of bowls at home, but having someone else to all the chopping and assembly is a treat! read more

I am an occasional visitor to laughing planet. Burritos typically the Woodstock and Mississippi locations. I started going back to them a few weeks ago when a friend of mine came into town and wanted some vegetarian organic options from a high-quality place. So I took her there. We had a bite and it was great. Based on that memory, I went back to this Hollywood location I was out canvassing and got in before they closed. I went up to the counter as usual, and I ordered a hibiscus tea and this time I wanted a shredded beef burrito. The cashier took my order. However, here's where things got weird. I told him I wanted a shredded beef burrito. He charged me for a chicken burrito however, when my burrito came, he said did I order the shredded beef burrito I took the order. I didn't realize until I was over halfway through the burrito that I was not eating a shredded beef burrito mainly because the meat was at the opposite end of the burrito. when I went up to the counter to ask about this, the cashier took my receipt and stated that I ordered a chicken burrito, which I said I did not. They were closed. Didn't wanna deal with us so we got sent out not much can be done about it because they took the receipt for the second week in front of them on. Why did you charge me for a chicken burrito I asked beef burrito I didn't really get a satisfactory answer from them and they were kind of very dismissive so I left. read more

Great place, delicious food, nice ambiance, and very good about dietary concerns. Very well priced as well.

Came in last week for a Thai bowl and some other vegan items. Service was courteous and prompt. Prices are still average for this type of food. I did find it weird that they don't have siracha or some sort of asian hot sauce, this should be changed. The food was ready fairly quickly and I took it home to eat it. Everything was cooked well and the packaging was nice! I will be back. read more

I tried ordering online and won't do it again. The Thai burrito was tasty, no complaints there. However, because I failed to see the part about specifying which TYPE of salsa I got nothing but a tiny bag of chips for $4. What a disappointment. When I tried to give feedback online to the store's website, there was no option for that, just contact your location. I won't be online ordering again using their app. Basically it sucks. read more

Five Stars for the Spanky's bowl as I love anything with mashed potatoes! The restaurant was very clean and service was good. Will be back on my next visit to the area. read more

Food is pretty tasty, presentation and quantity was lacking, even after doubling protien

My meal was amazing I enjoyed it I didn't care for my chickpeas being hard. My boyfriend didn't really enjoy his, not enough flavor.

I've seen these popping up around the city so decided to give them a try, they are little pricey for the size of the meal you receive, but still filling.They have seasonal specials and everything is fresh. Very spacious interior with modern decor and vegetarian options for all dishes. Great for lunch read more

In search for a healthy food spot, my gf and I stumbled across this place. Immediately through the door we liked the vibe of the whole place. Nice modern seating, styling and structure inside. Our cashier was very kind and helped answer many of our questions such as portions and dressing recommendations. Here's what we ordered: chips and med salsa (perfect amount of spice, and not too spicy), Bollywood bowl with corn tortillas, veggie chili, salad with avocado lime dressing, berry berry good smoothies and a chocolate chip cookie. The Bollywood bowl felt a little dry, I was expecting more sauce on it but still it had fresh healthy ingredients. I made tacos from the tortillas and the bowl and topped it off with the avocado lime dressing and that really brought the flavors together. My gf really enjoyed the chilli. It was full good flavor. The smoothies were a really great juice to cool off. They are 20z size so we split one together. The chocolate chip cookie was amazing too. The sea salt on it added another layer and was a perfect dessert! Would definitely recommend this place and would go back again to try some more items on their menu. read more

Had the mushroom tacos and they were delicious! We enjoyed 2 yummy smoothies. Service was friendly and fast. Lots of room to eat inside.

First time in, we wanted some bowls and burritos. This place has bowls, burritos, and smoothies. The location was clean, the service was quick and nice, and the food was tasty.

Will definitely return read more

I think I would title this review with "I don't get it". I really WANT to love this place, but it seems a little bland to me. My wrap was not mixed very well and I know there was supposed to be some sort of "bbq sauce" in there but I was never able to taste it. Even when I put some Cholula sauce and salt I had at home on it I still felt pretty meh about it. The chips clearly came from some large bag or box and were slightly on the stale side, plus I think there was only 3 in there that were whole - the rest were chips of chips. Or is that called a shard? WTF do you call a piece of a chip anyhow? I know there are a lot of loyal Laughing Planet fans, so I am wondering if I just got there on a bad day. I will try again and see what happens. read more

I love this place! it's consistent, affordable, the staff is nice, and it seems really clean. I get the grilled veggie quesadilla and the cruchero quesadilla usually and they're both so gooood. Online ordering is easy and the food is ready fast. read more

We've always enjoyed the food at Laughing Planet. The regular menu items are consistently delicious, and the daily specials are fantastic too. The service is excellent. Nothing about this restaurant ever disappoints. This is a vegan-friendly establishment but there are plenty of menu options for carnivore friends. It's also suitable for all ages. The kitschy Godzilla and dinosaur-themed decor is fun to look at, not just for children but for adults. The location is good too. It's right in the middle of downtown Hollywood, so it's within easy walking distance of other shops and restaurants. You will never have to park your car more than a block or two away. read more
