I find it hilarious people say this place is overpriced then in their next line explain they are a student. Guess what broke students: Planta is not for you, nor is it trying to cater to you. Planta is a high end vegan restaurant. Do not spend your OSAP money here.
Does this model work? Of course it does, hence why it's impossible to get a table without a reservation on a Fri or Sat.
I thought the food, service and atmosphere were five stars. I could have done without hearing Arcade Fire during my meal but I can forgive because the Cauliflower tots were NEXT LEVEL. I didn't save room for dessert but I will return this week and take on a chocolate terrarium.
Planta reminded me of Crossroads in Los Angeles; high end vegan small plates. Another restaurant I absolutely love. I am so happy we finally have a similar place in Toronto.
