    Banana Creme Brulee Milkshake
    Farhat K.

    Very interesting meat free burger I've wanted to try for a minute. The first two bites, I couldn't tell the difference, but as it cooled, I could tell it wasn't meat lol. Still, very tasty and filling. Loved the cheese they used. Fries were awesome, just wish the garden herb sauce was bigger (very small container, finished it before the fries). My banana crème brûlée shake was okay (it's a limited time flavor). This is a pricier meal but that's the cost I suppose of eating meat free. It's good the option exists. There's little seating since it's inside a Whole Foods. Service was relatively fast.

    Swirl Soft Serve

    Yes, please be how do I get this t my Whole Foods? PLNT Burger is a little tricky because you'll likely believe it is closed because the staff largely in the back unless you're ordering, but the staff at this location was great. Not the biggest fan of the fried green beans, but the sweet potato fries were some of the best I've ever had. Their soft serve is made with oat milk. Wow, I've missed soft serve. For all the non vegans, my meat-eating colleagues compared it to soft serve from DQ or a similar restaurant. In a big fan of the swirl. I was nervous to try the burgers; I hate the fake meats but these were made with mushrooms. Not the best burger alternative I've ever had, but I'd definitely eat it again. If I knew they held up, I would have taken some for the road. I saw a few non-vegans also stopping by, so while I can't compare it to other burger joints, it seems like it is worth a try even if you eat meat.

    I had the Mushroom BBQ Burger, it was the absolute best I have ever had. It was so savory and so good. I had my friend's fries which were also really good! :) I am going to come back and try other items! The service was kind of slow but I guess there were two people working there and had several people working in line! It is inside a food court in Whole Foods! :) you can grocery shop while you wait! It is fast casual place, the seating is limited right next to it but you can walk up and find way more seating!

    Delicious plant based burgers served fresh and hot. Yum! Was so happy to find a delicious plant burger to satisfy my burger craving. It's located inside Whole Foods in Mosaic/Merrifield in their food court. The service was fast and pleasant. The staff made us our delicious burgers as we requested. We ordered two burgers along with chili fries. The fries even crispy under the chili l. The chili is on the sweeter side (Cincinnati style) so it's not your thing you may want to skip the chili. The cool ingredients were fresh and a perfect compliment to our burgers. There are tables in the food court to sit at and on a Monday evening it was nice and quiet. During the day or in the weekends I imagine it's busy there. There haven't been too many places around that specialize in plant based burgers so this was an awesome surprise. They had multiple burger combinations and I look forward to trying more of them.

    If you aren't a vegetarian, don't be turned off by PLNT Burger, a meatless burger join by the chef behind D.C.'s beloved burger spot Good Stuff Eatery. The burgers use Beyond Meat, which truly tastes and looks like meat without being it. Like most of PLNT Burger's locations, it's a stall in the food court in Whole Foods at The Boro Tysons. If you walk through the main entrance, you can't miss it. A fast-casual spot, go through the line and order one of several burgers, chicken sandwiches and a fish sandwich. I ordered the bacon, mushroom BBQ burger and it was tasty. Order the meal as the burgers come out smaller than other fast casual restaurants. The meal comes with fries (they have five different kinds!) and a drink. Despite using expensive Beyond Meat, the prices aren't bad at all! Pro-tip- ask for their specialty sauces to dip the fries.

    So good! Located inside Whole Foods. Employees are friendly, helpful, and wrapped our order neatly. Outdoor seating is available and there is additional seating on the 3rd floor. Our order was ready in no time. We enjoyed everything. Their fries are deliciously crisp and cooked to perfection. Super addicting and even better with their sauces. The burger bun was fluffy yet held everything together. The plant-based patty was excellent. Super flavorful and had a lovely consistency. Hubs, who loves all things meat enjoyed his burger as well. Score! I really wish there was a PLNT Burger closer to where we live. Can't wait to come back and try some of their other menu items.

    Plnt Burger is stepping up the vegan fast food game, I mean look at that cheeseburger I posted?! It's pretty cool this restaurant is located inside Whole Foods markets and I don't know how they do it but they literally cook your food in light speed. Every time I have ordered I've done so from the app and it will be just like a minute wait and the food is coming out hot! The "meat" they use is beyond so you really can't go wrong with any of there burgers. They have a rotating monthly shake made from oat milk and then staple flavors your can get every time (such as strawberry, chocolate, and vanilla). The shake is thick and creamy and taste delicious. The "chicken" sandwich is made from mushrooms which is pretty cool. It definitely has a fried chicken taste to it which is great. The spicy sandwich isn't that spicy it only brings a little heat. They have two sides fries and mini blooming onions. The fries have a special seasoning on it and you can also get them loaded with vegan chili and and cheese. Also, just because this is vegan I would not say it is healthy, it is definitely the greasy fast food experience that you would get at any typical fast food restaurant but that's what we love right? I did a YouTube video explaining more about the sandwiches and real time taste test.

    The best plant-based burger I've had in the area. I've been looking for more health-conscious choices to cut calories and PLNT Burger seemed like a budget friendly choice. Their classic PLNT burger blew me away. They smash it thin so the patty becomes crispy, along with the sauce and vegan cheese, the flavors were spectacular. Don't underestimate these plantified burgers, they'll get the job done. Big congrats to Spike Mendelsohn and the Goldmansteins on their new location!

    Crispy Chik'N Sandwich
    Evan L.

    Been here a couple times after shopping at the Whole Foods and it's solid. I've had the Plnt Burger and the Crispy Chik'n Sandwich. The chicken sandwich is good- well-balanced and it tastes like a real chicken patty. The burger tasted good overall but the patty was kind of messy. Their fries are nice and crispy, and the dipping sauces are good too. Overall, good spot to stop by for a quick and healthy bite.

    Is this a Vegan joint not just "plant-based"? plant-based can contain non-Vegan (cruelty) items, such as honey and even eggs. Vegan is clearly cruelty-free. sO which is it?

    Our menu is 100% vegan, we use the term plant based to describe our menu as well, but thank you for sharing the concern around the wording!

    Is the cheese and mayonnaise vegan?

    Hey Ashley, thank you for reaching out! Everything we serve is 100% plant-based.

    Is everything vegan? Or some vegetarian, some vegan? Thanks!

    Yes - sauces are vegan as well!

I ordered an entrée with three sides: grilled vegetables, roasted heirloom carrots, and mac and cheese. Everything was made to order, so my meal arrived fresh and flavorful. The olive oil-roasted vegetables were simple but well seasoned and satisfying. The roasted heirloom carrots were unique as they were seasoned with za'atar and served with whipped feta, which added a delicious flavor. The mac and cheese, however, was just average. I'm not a big fan of gluten-free pasta, and I found it a bit too chewy. It also didn't absorb the cheese sauce very well, so it wasn't as creamy or flavorful as I had hoped. I also tried the draft kombucha, which was fine but nothing particularly memorable. The service was quick, even during a busy weekend lunch, and a staff member was friendly. The restaurant itself has a cute, welcoming interior with plenty of seating, so finding a table wasn't an issue. Overall, I had a really enjoyable meal and thought it was well worth the price. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

My wife has been a customer for over 25 years and introduced me to the restaurant when we started dating and myself being primarily a meat and potatoes person I find the food at Sunflower surprisingly flavorful and high quality.

    Updated Review (previously 5 stars) due to poor management response:…read more Management has changed since my last visit, and boy, this place is not what it used to be, and that makes me sad. About four years ago, I happily gave this restaurant 5 stars and recommended it to others. Unfortunately, my most recent experience was the complete opposite. During my meal, I discovered ANTS actively crawling around my food. (See video) It was disturbing to watch them around the sauce next to my meal, and I immediately stopped eating because I no longer felt comfortable consuming the rest of it. What disappointed me even more was how management handled the situation afterward. It was extremely difficult to get in touch with the manager despite multiple attempts. When I finally spoke with him, he refused to provide a refund because more than 30 days had passed since my visit. Given the nature of the complaint and the difficulty I had reaching management, I found that response completely unreasonable. I also raised concerns about being asked questions during my visit that made me feel racially stereotyped. Those concerns were never acknowledged or addressed by management, which only added to my disappointment. Because I believed this was a legitimate food safety issue, I filed a complaint with the Fairfax County Health Department. After investigating, the inspector informed me that they visited the restaurant, discussed my concerns with the manager, and that the manager confirmed my reported ant sightings. The Health Department also required additional pest control measures. Beyond the service issues, I also noticed a significant decline in the food. The wonton soup was bland and lacked the rich flavor I remembered, and the General Tso's Surprise tasted off and was missing the depth and spice that used to make it one of my favorite dishes. This restaurant used to be one of my favorite vegetarian spots, which is why writing this review is so disappointing. Based on my recent experience, the difficulty in getting in touch with management, and their total lack of customer service or care for loyal customers, I can't recommend dining here. They do not care about their customers based on how I was treated.

The restaurant was about 50% full when we arrived at 10 a.m., making it relaxed and easygoing. The staff made the occasion feel special with complimentary champagne, an elevated table setting, and a signed anniversary card from the team. Small touches, but they made a big difference. Menu - The menu has a good range while remaining relatively simple and focused. The pairings are clearly well thought out. I had the chicken sandwich with fries and considered substituting the tater tots, but the staff strongly encouraged me to stick with the chef's recommended pairing. They were right. The fries complemented the sandwich well, and I appreciated a staff confident enough in the menu to steer me toward the chef's vision. Vibes - Great ambiance.

Among the 3 of us, we split 2 mains and an appetizer, which was more than enough food. The fried calamari was nice and paired well with the spicy dipping sauce (which was actually spicy). I loved all the fresh veggies and generous amounts of peanuts and fried shallots in bún chả Hà Nội (vermicelli platter). As a saucy girlie, I REALLY liked the "fish sauce" accompanying the dish. Despite the deliciousness of those 2 dishes, the real star of the meal was thịt kho sả (lemongrass clay pot). Perfect flavoring; I almost forgot that it was vegetarian. The only downside to my experience was the service: it would have been great for a server to stop by and refill our water every once in a while.
