What I needed - Edit
I was hooked Ng to head out for a hearty junk food dinner after a hard weeks work. Plants is not that. It's better. It is wholesome, delicious and beautifully prepared food. What my body and soul needed. It's also nearby to Nuttea so I'll have my treat after, however the desserts here look great too but I have limited time to try a few places. More expensive than local cuisine however I can see and taste the value. I'm having the sweet potato fries (not deep fried but delicious and wholesome) and the falafel plate which is excellent.

Gluten free vegan restaurants - Edit
It is a very modern type of restaurant, like the ones in Europe.
Read moreAll their food is gluten free and vegan. The waitress spoke very good English and explained the menu very well, so one could say it is a kind of "good" restaurant. It is also a bit pricey. The good thing is, they don't close in the afternoon, so it is good for late lunch as well.
I had the pizza, it was kind of different than regular pizza, probably because it is gluten free, but also because it lacked something fresh, aside from some green leaves. I would love maybe tomatoes or paprika or something like that.
They had plenty of desserts and they all looked very good but they were all made with coconut, which I am not a fan of, so I didn't try.

Outstanding - Edit
I've had Plants on my list to visit for 8+ years, and was so happy to finally have a chance to visit. It did not disappoint, particularly the raw papaya wrap which blew me away. Don't hesitate, just go!

Gluten free ♡ - Edit
I never thought vegan gluten-free bibimbap, cream pasta and cheesecake could taste this good! I personally got surprised by how well the cream pasta tasted, it’s a must-try. The ambience is very good, the staff are really kind. Many dishes are oriental veg’n and those with alliums are indicated in the menu. I’d love to come back here and taste more dishes when I get to visit Taipei ♡

Das Essen ist sehr hochwertig und lecker! Alles glutenfrei und vegan. Die Acai-Bowl war sehr gut und eine grosse Portion. Leider sind wir nach dem Besuch gleich weitergereist, sonst wären wir nochmals hier essen gegangen.

Light and fresh - Edit
I was craving some less cooked/fresh vegetable food, and this hit the spot. The beet tartar starter was good. I had the papaya wrap which was light and full of fresh lettuce and sprouts. Their smoothies and bowls also looked good and had it been the morning or lunchtime I totally would’ve tried them. It was a little on the more expensive side for Taiwan and the portions weren’t very big.

Enjoyable Food - Edit
Online Order to takeout, so not much opinion on facilities and staff. I seldom eat falafel, since I avoid fried food, but falafel here is baked AND it is lentil, not chickpea. I liked this. Spicy menu bean and spicy cashews also good. A fine option inTaipei, but I will probably continue shopping around.
Read morePros: Baked, not fried falafel.
Cons: Ordered takeout because I had not made a reservati

Eh - Edit
Raw vegan food is definitely great for the palette and body but that place is lacking consistency. I was server a pie that was still frozen so I had to wait 30 minutes for it defrost and eat. The noodle soup was mediocre at best and prices were on the higher side for mid tier quality food. Probably a skip next time I'm in Taipei.

Delicious Healthy cuisine. - Edit
I loved dining at this sophisticated little restaurant. The healthy international dishes are excellent quality. It is all organic too. I had a great falafel dish with hummus and quinoa. Menu is in English and Chinese, you have to scan a QR code to make your order using your phone. It is a bit expensive with an added service fee but still well worth it.

Good not great. - Edit
Lovely to eat at a vegan cafe after a week on the countryside. The green smoothie was amazing. The egg salad (chickpeas) pesto toast sounded really promising but tasted okay. Quite expensive.

Pretty decent food - Edit
The food was quite good, we had the Hummus platter as starter and the Tom Kha Soup as main. The soup was delicious, the hummus a bit too lemony.. in general there is a big focus on „healthy“ food. This aspect makes is also quite pricy.

My favorite in Taipei - Edit
I haven't been to every vegan restaurant in Taipei, but this is my current favorite, perhaps even tied with "Uncle Q's". I'd classify the food as Asian fusion or perhaps even California fusion! (I'm from California.) My dish, with Indian flavors, was so delicious I wanted to lick my plate... but courtesy prevailed. They also have Masal Chai and was super tasty. A must-visit.

Lacks any texture except soft - Edit
To put it simply, the flavours were very good but all the textures were the same: soft and squishy. There is so much focus on health food in the menu that I suspect Plants doesn't use much oil, and prefers baking over frying. The garlic fries have literally no bite to them, they are just soft. Same goes for the lentil falafel.
Read moreIt's an interesting menu, with antioxidant and superfood type of ingredients, but the experience ends up being very much one dimensional. Take the carrot cake - you could even add some crunch with nuts. That would still be simple and wholesome.
Pros: Flavours, Service , Does various cuisines
Cons: Expensive , Lacking textures , Desserts run out

Plants - Edit
Two people, one vegan and one carnivore.
Read moreWe got a mango curry for me then shared a chocolate mint bliss ball. After it was so tasty we ordered 8 more!!! (6 for tomorrow) a raw carrot cake and a chocolate cheesecake with blackberry jam.
I had a cinnamon hot chocolate and also to take away a small coconut yoghurt. The bill was under 2 000 taiwan dollar. It was so good!
Off the main street away from the pollution. The girls working were all really friendly. Helpful and spoke good English. They got a box for my bag to go into not on the floor. They turned the air con off as I was cold. Would return.
