So great, just wanted a bit more spice. - Edit
Plant cafe has an amazing ambiance and good vibes. The hummus is so delicious. Our family got chili cheese burger, Philly cheesesteak, chili cheese fries, cheese fries and their new Cajun chicken sandwich. The inner fat kid was very happy 🥰🥰

Great - Edit
- Philly cheesesteak - very good, but on the healthier side rather than the more realistic stretchy vegan cheeses
Read more- kofta - very good, but needs rice
- hummus squash salad with added tepeh - great
- Raspberry lemon cake - excellent!
Plant based and they use organic sugar!

Warm cafe with western food and baked goods- allergy friendly - Edit
I came her twice while in Seoul. Baked goods, coffee, and food was so great. Staff was very kind and double checked allergens! Would recommend the smoked chorizo and beans dish.

Cozy place with great food - Edit
Been here a few times when visiting Seoul. Food is always great. Last visit we had the teriyaki stir-fry which was the best I’ve had. It is large portion so you could probably share.

Nice food, but overpriced - Edit
The food was good.
Read moreOnly issue was that it was quite overpriced. You have to pay extra for fries with your burger and it cost 8000원 for half a beer. It also didn't say on the menu that the beer was so small for that price or we would never have ordered it

Tasty food - Edit
I tried the moussaka and although it was a creative version of it, it was very tasty. The portion was a little small for the price.

Food is good but some staff aren't very welcoming. - Edit
I visited this branch a few times last year and had a great experience, but unfortunately this year I didn't have such a good time.
Read moreI went to order my food at the counter and when I said which drink I wanted the member of staff repeated it as if I was asking for something that didn't exist, I checked the menu to make sure I was right in what I was asking for and then they found it on the system.
I then ordered a burger but without coleslaw, the staff member seemed to be having trouble with inputting this in their system but I didn't think much of it at the time.
When our food came my burger had what I would describe as coleslaw on it, I mentioned to the staff member that I asked for it without coleslaw and she said it wasn't coleslaw, before I could even reply another member of staff appeared and asked what was the matter and I said I'd asked for no coleslaw and she said it wasn't coleslaw but it was Salad, however the other items which should of been on the burger (I believe it was some sort of pickle and sauce?) were missing.
The food is nice (although I only ended up eating the top half of my burger which wasn't touching the coleslaw as I hate mayo!) and the restaurant itself is lovely, be prepared for a bit of a wait as it can be busy at times!
Cons: Some unfriendly staff

Not as good an the other location - Edit
I got the Mac and cheese at both locations and this one dulls in comparison. The noodles weren’t cooked all the way and the sauce was bit watery.

Great food - Edit
Really relaxing upstairs restaurant serving modern vegan dishes. Both items were delicious and staff friendly and helpful. Service was quick despite there being a few customers. Would highly recommend if you’re in the area.

Ok burger - Edit
I'm never that impressed with Plant's food. I had the mushroom burger. It was nice but I've had far better burgers in Seoul. Also, the chips were way oversalted and an extra 5000 to add. This is my first time trying the food at the itaewon branch and it was sufficient. I like the restaurant itself though and the staff are friendly enough. Their best meal by far is the pomodoro pasta with soy sausage. I'll stick to that if I go again.

Nothing special - Edit
The food was good but tasted like something I could easily make at home. Expensive compared to other vegan restaurants in Seoul. Service was also a bit rude.

I want to try everything! - Edit
A vast and tempting menu, it's hard to choose! Western vegan food done well. On my first visit I had the Philly cheese steak which was delicious and seemed good value for money - messy to eat though! On my second visit I had the pasta bowl which was a smaller portion than I expected but was tasty! Beer and cider were good. Then ordered hot buffalo cauliflower wings - my least favourite of the three but still good with a beer.

Great meals, incredible deserts - Edit
Solid menu of vegan main dishes. A broad selection of vegan pies and cakes, which are hard to find in many countries. Nice indoor eating space, comfy. On the second floor a few blocks from the metro station in this active nightlife district

unkind - Edit
we didn't actually eat here. I'm sure the food is good and the staff was so unfriendly and arrogant, that we decided to leave instead of waiting. having a popular or hip restaurant does not justify unkind behavior and lack of humility. i prefer to patronize establishments that care about the customer and who do not act like we're lucky to eat there.

Cons: unfriendly staff
