Fine vegan dining

Small plates restaurant with many diverse vegan options. Our party shared the queso fundido and the broccoli appetizers and had a few other courses. Everything was amazing and even though my meat-loving family complained about the lack of chicken, they also loved all their dishes. The decor was beautiful as well.

Top restaurant

An amazing place to celebrate a milestone birthday. Incredible service and delicious food. We shared five different dishes and each had wonderfully unique flavors. Highly recommended.

Love the twist on typical planta fare!

I love planta and go to it whenever I travel. This is my first time at a cocina version. It definitely lived up, but in the end I prefer planta queen!

The best Planta

I’ve been to a bunch of Plantas and this menu is my fave. So many yummy offerings, you can’t go wrong. Favorites include the spicy tuna roll, torched and pressed, spicy tuna hand roll, queso fundido, bang bang broccoli, and udon noodles.

Swanky, Tasty, a bit Pricey

Very cool date night atmosphere. We got the dragon roll and the firecracker roll, both were delicious. We also got croquettes (make sure you time it for happy hour, they're half price and you still only get 3 for $8) which were incredibly tasty, the cashew mozzarella was rich and flavorful. The menu is on the pricey side and very heavy on mushrooms

Pros: Tasty, Shareable, Cool atmosphere

Cons: Pricey, Most protein is mushroom

Another Great Planta Restaurant

I was in DC and saw that this place recently opened so had to stop by. I’m a big fan of the Planta franchise with Planta Queen being my favorite. I ordered the coconut ceviche, croquetas, and maitake mushrooms. Everything was great, but I would of liked to see some chips or something with the ceviche as it came alone. I’d definitely like to visit again and try other unique menu items.

Definitely worth the price

Even though Planta is a bit pricey, it’s definitely worth the price!! A great tip is to go on a Monday, bc that’s when they have Maki Monday with $9 maki rolls!

The food is amazing! It’s a must-try for all vegans living in or visiting DC.

Delightful food!

I loved the food at Planta Cocina, especially the California artichoke, and the atmosphere is light and beautiful! This is a lovely spot for a special meal.

However, they still have a ways to go with the service. We had a reservation on Father’s Day, and even though half the tables were open, the host left us standing at her station while she walked around the restaurant. Once we were seated, two different people came to our table and introduced themselves as our server but it was just a mixup! They also piled up all the pillows on the patio and stuffed them into garbage bags in the middle of dinner service—it made for a weird view from the front windows, which look out on a corner with lots of foot traffic.

Pros: Exquisite food, Lovely atmosphere

Cons: Service

Always delicious

Planta is in many major cities, and they have several different themed menus - Italian, Asian, fusion.

first time there

I am very familiar with Planta in Bethesda, MD. This was my first time trying Planta Cocina and I liked the atmosphere. The food at Planta restaurants is always good, though I wished for more latin inspired than asian inspired, considering this is a "cocina." Crabless cake, queso, croquettes, sushi. I also took home tres leches cake, which was ok. Favorite was the croquettes by far!

The most creative, innovative vegan restaurant I’ve been to. From the cocktails to the beautiful “snacks.” A must try when in DC!

Simply Amazing

After traveling to DC and not finding reasonable acceptable vegan options at the airport, I was so hungry. I had heard of Planta Queen but not Planta Cocina (same company). I was afraid I wouldn’t get a seat but they were able to accommodate me.

To say the food and the service is amazing doesn’t do this place credit. I had the Croquetas, Baja Mushroom Taco, and the Baked Crab Rolls. All were incredible. I would have ordered more but was stuffed. Staff were completely engaging. Five plus stars!

Astonishingly Good!

Everything here is sublime. The bang bang broccoli 🥦 is the greatest thing you’ll ever taste! The sushi is ridiculous! The cocktails 👌👌👌 you literally can’t make a wrong choice! Go out of your way to dine here. Sit back and let the beautiful happen 🧡

Pros: The team, The food (bang bang 🥦👌), The cocktails

Cons: They’re not as yet open in London 😭

Absolutely incredible

Stayed in DC for the weekend and saw that Planta Cocina was a 5 minute walk from where we were staying. We were BLOWN AWAY! The atmosphere was perfect and the service was excellent. 100% vegan menu. Everything we ordered was delicious and beautifully presented. Our favorite meal was the baja mushroom tacos. Highly recommend!!!

OMG

The trifecta is complete now that the Washington, DC area has a Planta Cocina!

Pros: The atmosphere (sexy vibes), Location (Logan Circle), Cuisine (top tier)
