    PLNT Burger inside Whole Foods
    Jeff C.

    This location straight Made up for experience In DC, well done! Portions were healthy Wish it was cheaper, I'm poor Comin back, for sure!

    Ready to go!

    Well, I finally tried PLNT Burger. Won't do that again. Honestly, it's not that it was bad...it just wasn't great. And there are so many good places to go in DTSS, why go to one that isn't? This is a kiosk inside Whole Foods, and on my way to Cava, I detoured and ended up here. The cashier was helpful and my order came out quickly, which was nice. The mandarin cardamom drink was like a tasty, hopefully semi-healthy Tang (anybody remember Tang?!?!). So the burger was kind of...meh. It lacked spice, flavor, and flair. It was just a sort of mushy patty of unidentifiable plant-based material. The bun was tasty, and the sauce was quite yummy, and the lettuce and tomato were very fresh (I mean, it is situated inside a grocery store - one would hope!) The sweet potato fries were the clear winner here. Crispy, crunchy, cooked perfectly. Weird green sauce I still can't identify! Also, pretty freakin expensive. So even though the fries were great, I'll probably stick to my regular options in DTSS from now on.

    This is my first time trying PLNT burger and it is surprisingly very good. The place is tucked INSIDE Wholefoods. So note that. I got a meal with The cheese burger. That includes a small fries and a small drink. I chose Strawberry rhubarb. The burger is tasty, crispy and felt light. It came with 2 sauces: the green sauces is creamier and the red sauce is sweeter. I liked the red. The drink didn't have a lot of sugar (good thing) and tasted more naturally sweet. A huge plus on that. I also liked they didn't add ice. The staff was quick, service was courteous. Cost: 11.75 for my meal. Not too bad. However, The place is noisy, not much room to sit and eat. So I ll have to reduce a star for that. I'll definitely recommend it to vegetarians. And doesn't hurt for an occasional deviance for a regular.

    My fiancé and I first tried them on August 8, 2019 for a pre-release at my synagogue Ohev Sholom, whose Rabbi Herzfeld certified this now popular and growing vegan burger joint as Kosher. We were very impressed and have had it there and from their original Silver Spring location several times. We were glad that a neighborhood with a ton of restaurants now has its fully vegetarian, vegan, and kosher option. With their own in-app coupons and Groupon deals, you can always save money. They are always slowly expanding the menu and the latest additions are the Baja Burger and the Egg Sammy. The meat is Beyond and dairy and egg products all taste real or even better than that. Their Chili Bowl is also great and it seems that the recipe comes from or is at least inspired by Virginia Ali, the vegetarian co-founder of Ben's Chili Bowl who is a friend of our belated best man. Our favorite side dish are the Bloomies. In just under two years they have expanded to 6 location across the DMV and another 2 in the Philly area. Last time we went the staff says they are going to soon cover the East Coast seaboard from Boston to Miami. If you are a herbivore or omnivore you will love this. And if a carnivore, I dare you to try it as well.

    Crispy Herb Fries

    I'm going to be one of those people that says, "I can't believe I've never been here before until now!" I live 1.5 miles away in Silver Spring and as a pescatarian, I don't know why I've waited so long to check this place out. Maybe it's the horrifically, always crowded parking lot out back? Well, with COVID still rearing its ugly head, parking seems to be a bit easier now. I had no wait to order, and because I checked out Yelp reviews ahead of time, I knew what I wanted to order. I started with the much praised Mushroom BBQ Bacon Burger. It was really good, the hype was real. Mushroom "bacon"? yes, please. Now, I'm not a red meat eater so I can't make claims as to how it taste compared to cow meat. It was really tasty. The crispy herb fries were just that, even upon my return home. A nice change from thin, regular fries. I also ordered the Spicy Chik N' Funguy because, well... more mushrooms. A quote from the source: Crispy fried oyster mushroom stems, house made hot sauce, pepperjack cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, garden herb mayo! Sound delicious?! Almost. A bit too spicy for me. Joy B. would not approve. I will stick with the burger next time. I also purchased a Whisked! chocolate chip cookie for my teatime later. It's 100% vegan and Kosher certified. It was just okay. For the $2.50 price tag I'd rather get a chocolate chip cookie from Chik-fil-A, or an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie from Potbelly's. Both are delicious! However, theirs is a good option for vegans.

    The Strawberry Rhubarb with Apple Cider Vinegar is refreshing and not too sweet!
    Aarti B.

    Great vegan concept and well executed! PLNT is tucked inside of Whole Foods and can be hard a bit hard to find near the bakery section. Worth the maze! The crispy Fun-guy Chik'n Sandwich is delicious! Glad I spotted an appetizing photo of the Chik'n sandwich and went for it! The sandwich was bursting with flavor from the crispy oyster mushrooms resembling chicken tenders and fixings of pickles, herbed mayo, and green leaf lettuce. The simple sandwich was quite tasty! The crispy herbed potato wedge fries were tasty and nice complement to the sandwich with a smoky aioli sauce. The Strawberry Rhubarb juice with apple cider vinegar is refreshing and not too sweet! Note there's a Plenty meal combo deal with some of the Plant burgers, not with the Fun-guy Chik'n Sandwich - $12.50 for a sandwich, large drink, and fries. After I ordered, I saw it! Excited to come back for another round of the crispy Fun-guy Chik'n Sandwich, herbed fries, and refreshing juice!

    I wanted a veggie burger so bad and quick search led me to PLNT Burger. I'm glad I read that it was inside of Whole Foods if not we would have been circling around for a while. The reviews were really good and so many folks recommended the new patty melt so I went with that, fries and a cookies & cream milkshake. The staff were incredibly nice which is why I'm giving 3 stars. The food was NOT good. My patty fell apart which made it a mushy mess and was so difficult to eat. I'm so shocked that so many people were raving about it in their reviews but again, I've visited places that have perfected veggie burgers. Also, to note, the meat is Beyond meat and I strongly prefer impossible burgers.

    Still trying out Vegan food to broaden my horizons in the food world. I have tried weird-tasting Vegan food, and this place is not one of 'em. Fyi, this place is located in the Whole Foods in Silver Spring. We went during COVID times, had a long line, but we didn't wait that long. We ordered the PLNT Burger and PLNT Cheeseburger with sweet potato fries. The burger was awesome. It seemed like a "regular/non-Vegan" burger! I would suggest to any of the Vegans out there, or for the people that have not tried Vegan before. Would I come here again? Yes, when the COVID has simmered down.

    About two blocks from the main cross-streets of Downtown Silver Spring. Worth the brief walk to…read morecome for dinner. It was a nice evening and we decided to sit outside. For starters, we got the New England Clam Chowder and an order of Chickpea Fries. New England Clam Chowder - definitely a chowder and not a soup (heavy cream base) with a nice flavor and a healthy amount of clam bits. Chickpea Fries - A nice portion of well prepared fries. Nice crunch on the outside, but moist on the inside. Well seasoned and not oily. Comes with ketchup and an avocado lime ranch, which was ok. It's a huge portion and we took most of it home to enjoy later. Good use of chickpeas. Branzino - This is a whole fish split in half. Pretty easy to remove the bones oneself. The skin was nice and crunchy with the meat inside moist. Well prepared. I'm not a huge fan of dill and I think the seasoning of dill is a bit overdone here. (I'm pretty sure it's dill. Whatever it is, it's too heavy for me and detracts from the meal.). The wild rice side dish is very good. Lobster Roll - Excellent. My partner ordered this and the only comment was that the large was very big and next time they likely would get the small one. Lots of delicious, cold lobster meat. The fries also were excellent. The service overall was very good. Our food was served at an appropriate rate (apps, then main, which seems not to be important at a lot of restaurants these days) and the water service was excellent. Recommend this restaurant. I probably would not get the Branzino again because of the heavy dill seasoning, but there are other items in the menu that look interesting.

    Dear Restaurant Owner,…read more My husband and I had been looking forward to dining at your restaurant for quite some time and finally had the opportunity to visit on Tuesday, June 2, before attending a concert nearby at 8:00 PM. We arrived at approximately 6:45 PM, were seated promptly, and were greeted by our server, Anna. She was pleasant; however, the service we received throughout the evening was extremely disappointing. We ordered drinks to start. My husband ordered a beer, and I ordered a rosé prosecco. When my drink arrived, it was visibly flat. I tasted it anyway and found it to be both warm and lacking carbonation. When I brought this to Anna's attention, she responded, "I noticed it looked flat too; I'll get you another one." Frankly, this was concerning. If she noticed the drink was not of acceptable quality, it should never have been served to a customer in the first place. We then ordered the mussels appetizer, which was excellent and one of the highlights of our visit. Shortly afterward, I ordered the swordfish special, and my husband ordered the shrimp po' boy. Neither dish would typically require an unusually long preparation time. Unfortunately, what followed was nearly an hour of waiting with no communication. Anna never checked on the status of our meals, nor did she provide any updates. Meanwhile, we watched multiple tables who were seated after us receive their food and complete their meals. By 7:45 PM, with our concert approaching, my husband suggested that we ask for our meals to be packed to go. It quickly became apparent that our entrees had not even been prepared. When Anna finally returned, she told us it would be "another five minutes," indicating that our meals had not yet been cooked despite being ordered nearly an hour earlier. At that point, we had no choice but to take the food to go so that we would not miss our concert. As a result, we ended up eating cold food later that evening. What made the experience particularly disappointing was that we had genuinely been excited to visit your restaurant. We had heard good things and were looking forward to a memorable dinner before our evening out. Instead, we left feeling overlooked and wondering what we had done to warrant such poor service and lack of attention. To my surprise, my husband--who is incredibly kind and non-confrontational--still left Anna a 20% tip, despite the fact that the service did not merit it. I am writing not to seek anything in return, but simply to make you aware of our experience. The quality of the mussels showed us that your kitchen is capable of producing excellent food. Unfortunately, the service and lack of communication overshadowed what should have been a wonderful evening. Thank you for taking the time to read this feedback. I hope it helps prevent future guests from having a similar experience. t

It's on the same block as a really nice Thai place and a nice Mediterranean spot as well. There weren't many people on a weekday night so we just walked in. Street parking is free after 7 PM. The star was the margharita pizza. And we also got a calzone, which was also really good. The texture of the crust and the little slight crunch and the sauce was really great. I wish there was more basil on the margarita pizza. There were three pieces of basil on the entire pie the pasta we got was the seafood pasta and it was a bit salty and portions are a bit small, but maybe that's the norm now? And we also got this other mushroom ravioli thing that is also pretty good but just really small. I think it was like five or six pieces of ravioli for $24. Service was fine. It was standard. The restaurant was a little bit hot during the heat wave. I wish it was a little cooler so with the four dishes altogether it was over $80 before tip for two people and we just had a little bit left over which is why I thought the value was more 3.5 than a four.

I asked whether the expectation was for customers to leave a total of 38%, and I was told that is how it works at this restaurant and in Washington DC. I found the billing and tipping process confusing and misleading. I won't be back.
