Found Laughing Planet one night after a local event that was by UNR as online said it was open late - woot woot!! Found parking on nearby Tenth & Virginia went inside but it looked like they were closing for the night, totallyyy bummed we started to head out. An employee popped out from the back asked if we were ready to order, so to our surprise and delight we were happy to realize they were still open and confirmed by them - we asked if we get a moment to look over the menu. We looked over the menu, grabbed a table and decided on the Korean BBQ Beef Bowl plus an order of chips with side of guacamole and for drinks Kombucha and Lemonade. Staff was friendly, helpful but unfortunately as we sat and sat wondering where are order of chips with guacamole wandered off in the completely empty restaurant - they had just forgotten that we had even ordered drinks or chips & guac...hence my minus 2 stars. The Korean BBQ Beef Bowl fixed our hunger pangs being deLISH, healthy and we would eat it again should we pop into Laughing Planet for a late-night healthy food option.

It's no laughing matter that we all need more plant friendly options to save our planet and our health, and Laughing Planet delivers that on many accounts. We ordered online for pickup which was super easy and convenient. The website allows you to fully customize your order too without needing to ask at the cashier, especially if there is a line. Our dinner consisted of the Sumac Salad ($11.50) w/o feta, and was a delicious blend of kale, spinach, crispy chickpeas, green applies, quinoa, raisins, and olives. The vinaigrette they used was very refreshing and I'd definitely order this again. We also had their Black bean Hummus ($5.50) which was a good, carby side, and their Tempeh Royale ($9.75) which was a solid burrito that can easily be shared with someone. The salad was my favorite but everything was good overall.

I love the laid-back vibe and casual bar seating almost as much as their decor. My most recent visit was with my cousin from out of town and her children and of course myself and my children; we had a party of 7. The kids were impressed with their chicken quesadillas and beans. My cousin and I ordered two chicken bowls, and my kids ordered two orders of their salsa and queso with chips and bean and cheese burritos. Some time had lapsed since my last visit there, but my tasebuds were overwhelmed with all of the fresh flavors in our bowls. We ordered cookies for the kids to eat on the way back to my car. If you're looking for a local spot for lunch in Midtown, check it out. They offer a more vegan and paleo friendly menu, and they don't dig too deep into your pockets. Although it took a while for us to even order, I knew our food would be worth it. There were food delivery drivers waiting by the bar and a full line behind us. There was only one girl running and trying to aid everyone. We felt for her. She was doing her best! They gave us our drinks, chips, and queso for the long wait. We came in during the normal work week and caught their lunch rush. I recommend ordering ahead if you're pushed for time. If you have time, enjoy this cool restaurant or get some sun on the patio.

I was in Reno, NV for a business trip and unfortunately the food that was served at the event I was attending was not vegetarian friendly... Due to this, I did a little research and happened to find Laughing Planet Cafe which was about a 15-minute walk from the event center. I am SO GLAD I found this place!! The food was incredible! I hesitated slightly when I ordered the Vegetable Quesadilla as it included carrots and cauliflower - something that I wouldn't think to put in a quesadilla... But the combination of vegetables plus the queso fresco and their house made green sauce was beyond perfect!! I ate the entire thing and could've probably eaten more. They were low on fruits for the smoothies, so I ended up going with the Mango Banana that's typically a kinds menu item because they ran out of peaches for the Mango Peach that I wanted to try. Nevertheless, it was equally delicious! Also, the service was fantastic! This place is counter-service and the guy behind the counter on this day was doing basically everything himself, but was friendly the entire time and handled it all with grace. Much appreciated!! Y'all be sure to stop by and support this local business!! I know I will if I ever end up in Reno, NV again.

I was craving something healthy and fresh and this restaurant was recommended. I ordered the Highway to Kale salad with chicken added and wasn't disappointed. The salad consisted of kale, carrots, dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds, queso fresco and a lemon-parsley vinaigrette. It was exactly what I needed! Very light and filled with fresh ingredients. I do think the chicken could have looked more appetizing but it was fine. Cashier who took our order was very helpful. They have outside seating available as well as interior.

This place was just what I needed. Healthy, quick, clean, not super expensive, lots of vegetarian and gluten free options and the smoothie was so good and refreshing. They had a lot of daily specials also This place is on the corner across from the university, two story historic building, lots of windows to look out. It looks like they also have live music nights. Chic interior. Parking is a bit of a struggle. But overall really glad we came here. I got the crunchero, mango peach lemon smoothie and chips and salsa. It was tasty!

mango smoothie & chicken bbq casadilla

Drink we could not finish, in my opinion it was overwelmingly lemonady with an odd texture and though i can appreciate fruity chunks in a smoothie we found a waxy seedlike booger thing in it. quesadilla ingredients were very good but the breading was soaked/damp- overall unappealing. some of their burrito options are good tho- would recommend the tempeh royale.

The comfort bowl

What an awesome healthy dining option! We went mid afternoon so there was only one other couple there at the time. It is seat yourself with TONS of seating options. The ambiance is very eclectic, with fun and interesting decor. The food was DELICIOUS!! I personally had the Bollywood bowl - I cannot rave enough about the coconut curry sauce that came on it. Dining in was just fine, but the lack of a lively environment is why it didn't get 5 stars for me, but their food was all incredible and an also great takeout option for lunch.

This place is perfect if you want healthy! Great atmosphere and the guy that helped us was very nice. I did ask for no cilantro and well I got HELLA cilantro on my bowl. Whatever I picked it off but it's that attention to detail. I would not sit out back because it's infested with small bugs, flying into your face and hair. Other than those two things it was a nice place! I'd never go to this location again because it's impossible to find parking as it's right across from the University. Great spot for students if you ask me. The prices were good too!

CRUNCHERO

I had tried a few restaurants before finally feasting at Laughing Planet. I was in town visiting a friend, and can't thank them enough for pointing me to the best crunch wrap supreme something I could have ever met. Order the crunchero now and thank me later.

It was our 1st time eating there however it had been on our list for some time. We started with the PULL-APART GARLIC CHEESE BREAD which is Focaccia, mozzarella, marinara, parmesan, frico crust and also ordered the WOOD FIRED OCTOPUS with crispy gnocchi, tomatoes, red onion, basil, arugula and topped with a Calabrian chili aioli. Both were fantastic, seasoned nicely and cooked to a perfect temperature!! For our entree we hate the BEE STING pizza. Make with a 72 Hour Fermented Organic Dough topped with Salami, red onion, basil, serranos, mozzarella and honey. The crust was delicious, crunchy, thin and when combined with the sauce, seasoning and toppings, an excellent pizza. Additionally we ordered two of the in-house, housemaid pasta. The ARRABBIATA , a roasted red pepper campanelle, with Calabrese sausage, garlic, chilis, broccolini and topped with Parmesan, pecorino. The other pasta we tried was the BLACK SPAGHETTI, mixed with clams, scallops, shrimp, hot chopped peppers, white wine, butter and lemon. It was fantastic!! Cooked al dente and packed with flavor. Overall it was a very pleasant experience. The service was great, food was yummy and we definitely look forward to going back again soon!

The garlic bread pull-apart was honestly one of the highlights of the meal -- absolutely amazing and definitely something we'd order again. The pizza was also really good with great flavor and fresh ingredients. The atmosphere had a nice downtown vibe and felt relaxed and welcoming. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was the service timing after our appetizer order. Once we got the garlic bread, it took about 20-30 minutes before our server came back to take our actual food order, which slowed things down quite a bit. Outside of that, everything else was great. One helpful tip for anyone visiting: there's paid meter parking on the street, so make sure to put enough time on the meter just in case your visit takes a little longer than expected. Overall, definitely worth checking out and we'd still come back again.

The lighting fixtures were fun and unique. There were tvs everywhere. Of course one was tuned to atmosphere and some bar trivia was playing. We started off dinner with some fried wontons. They were flavorful and cooked well. We ordered the French onion soup and the chef's burger with fries. The soup said on the menu it came with homemade croutons but instead it came with generic saltine crackers. Also it was made with red onion instead of yellow onion which was a ... choice. The burger, however, was perfect. The flavors were good, it was cooked exactly as ordered, medium rare. Our waitress was great. We absolutely loved her. Even though she was the only waitress there she was on her game. She was honest and professional and really had a great personality. Food came out in a timely fashion. The cocktails were delicious. The restaurant was clean and well taken care of. Overall we enjoyed our time here and if we happen to be passing through again we would stop here.

It was slightly more acidic. The curry made better for dipping. The service was quick and despite Fritzie W. changing her mind on a few items, they were still patient and courteous. The restaurant is laid back, and a few patrons eating inside appeared content enjoying their meals. The restaurant seating is basic, seats aren't luxurious or entirely too comfortable but for a quick bite on a week day, you can't complain or shouldn't...only enjoy.

Like fine wine, Aladdin's gets better with age. I have loved watching it evolve over the years,…read moreespecially the restaurant, which started as a small offering and has now really come into its own. We had to feed a crowd at home recently and Middle Eastern cuisine suited everyone's fancy, so naturally Aladdin's was the call. Using the online ordering system was simple, and the food was ready right on time. My only feedback is that the items don't all clearly describe what you get or how the dish comes, and so I added sauces thinking they came on the side but really came on top, and paid upcharges for things like pita, thinking they didn't come with it but then finding out they did and I just added a lot of extra. I ordered a few shawarma plates, an Aladdin combo, and hummus, falafel, and babaganoush appetizers. Everything was delicious, but some items were a bit surprising. The hummus is was a bit on the loose side, and we actually thought it was tahini from the look, aroma, and flavor. My guess is the batch was made with a bit more tahini than normal. Still good, but surprising. The Aladdin's Combo didn't look as pictured on the website, where it looks like a very sizable portion of meat, with chicken in a reddish marinade. Though the chicken looked similar to shawarma, it was clearly different in flavor, and both it and the koobideh were delicious. I ordered extra meat and had expected it to be outrageously large based on the menu photo of the standard order, but what came was more similar to the photo itself. It was still plenty to share, but I paid additional and didn't seem like I got that much more. The regular portions here are large, like easily feed two people sized. We ordered one plate per person, but in reality could've split them all. Again, I love this spot and chalk this up to learning. I think some folks could get frustrated with this experience, and I def did to an extent, but I enjoy this too much to gripe.

I've been to Aladdin's several times in the past when needing groceries for some of my Greek…read morerecipes, but this time my wife and I decided to hang out for a while and have lunch. We were not disappointed! Here are a few things to know: - In addition to selling Mediterranean groceries, you can order at the register and there are several small tables so you can sit and eat. - I ordered the Gyro Sandwich, and my wife ordered the Chicken Shawarma Sandwich. Both were really good, and quite large...I, of course, polished my entire sandwich off and my wife took half home for later. - We've bought Greek cheeses, olives, bulghur, and spices at Aladdin's, both this time and in the past. It's the only place to find some of the things I need, and the prices are better on some things than even Amazon. - Service was really great. The person working let me wait to pay until after I had finished my grocery shopping, and she brought our food out to our table pretty quickly. Bottom line: Aladdin's is a go-to place for us...next time, we'll probably go again at a time which would let us enjoy lunch at the same time.
