| - I came here on a whim because I felt like spoiling myself yesterday. I figure I deserved it after eating so healthy and working out so much for the past few months.
I always see this place on my way to work and knew it was quite pricey, but I figured, what the heck, once in a while doesn't hurt. In terms of the ambiance, it is amazing. It feels fresh, clean and surrounded by lots of greenery.
I had the Planta Burger with truffle fries and the cauliflower tots. The tots were mediocre at best, so I wouldn't recommend them and it was definitely a small plate that I wouldn't even consider shareable and was pricey at almost $10 for 4 pieces. The Planta burger though was absolutely delicious. Sometimes when you order veggie/vegan burgers, the patties are deep fried whereas I think these ones were grilled or pan fried and the toppings on it were some kind of salsa. Amazing. Also got the truffle fries instead of the standard fries and I loved them. I don't usually eat fries and when I do, I usually eat them last. This time, I finished 80% of fries before I finished 1/2 burger. Yep that good.
I think this would be a great place for a client meeting or to take a date, but not your everyday meal (unless you own a condo or house in Yorkville, which I don't because I'm not that rich..yet).
Verdict: Will definitely be back, either with friends or a special someone when I find them. lol.
