Planta was opened with the purpose of creating delicious food that promotes environmental sustainability. Under Chef David Lee, Planta aimed at filling a void in the market of upscale, full service, plant-based dining options. The restaurant's vision is to celebrate innovative cuisine in a beautiful environment without the use of any animal products. There’s more to responsible plant-based eating than just taking animals off the plate and our commitment to using high-quality products from ethical suppliers provides the foundation for our chefs to be proud of the food they serve.

Food was good but has been better in the past. Sushi was dry and flavourless. Meal was ok. The food at the Planta Yorkville location us better overall.

Initially the hostess totally ignored me, but once we were seated- the service was upbeat, friendly and made some menu suggestions. We had eaten at the Yorkville location and assumed menu was similar- but it was completely different and Asian inspired. Food is designed to share, though portions are quite small and would recommend ordering more than the suggested 2 dishes per person advised by the server. Food is flavourful but as a non vegetarian, with the amount of plant options available at mainstream restos would probably not revisit. When we booked for a special occasion the restaurant suggested a surprise birthday cake which they brought out without being prompted- much appreciated. The room is well designed with a clean look and a nice ambiance. Overall, the server was definitely what made the experience worth the visit at all; her friendly manner and checking in was appreciated, as was the manager (I assume) who took time to make sure things were going well.

Multiple times during our experience the staff were confused, poor listeners and rushing around which all had a negative impact. Second time dining here and the first was similar. Only booked this most recent time as it is close to the four seasons centre but won’t repeat in the future. Also, food was 50/50. Bang bang broccoli and mango/pineapple salad were good but general tso cauliflower was soggy and gyoza were tasteless.

Love the room and food is excellent -especially the seaweed and pear salad, dragon roll and the tofu truffle main. Only flaw is the tendency to bring too many dishes to the table at once the timing needs work to ensure you don’t feel rushed. Great staff!!!

Food was amazing and a must try is the Bang Bang Broccoli. If you feel adventerous try the Indian Pancake the Dosa. Scrumptious. Best way to end the meal is with forbidden rice pudding.....to die for.

Second time at Planta Queen. First time last year seemed better quality to all five of us. Not worth the high price tag on each item. An $18 sharing dish is hard to split with 5 due to the extremely small portions. The first time we overlooked the excessive menu prices because the taste was so good. Now that the quality has declined it can no longer be justified. Service is good at least.

We felt that the food was really good. But we ordered two main dishes and one didn’t come for half an hour We finished the first dish and waited and waited. We asked our waitress and she said she was going to check but she didn’t come back with an answer. We have to ask her twice. Finally the dish came but our steamed rice became cold rice. We asked to replace new bowls of rice and they did. At the end the rice wasn’t charged. Also our water was not filled and again we have to ask a couple of times to have our glasses refilled. So food was good but the service needs a lot of improvement.

The service and ambience got top marks, and the 4 dishes we shared ranged from very good to superb. I would have rated the food 5 stars, but the Gyoza were really overcooked. Filling was tasty but the dumpling shells were just shy of being burned. I was surprised they served them to us. We would have requested a do-over but we were short of time so we let it go. Highly recommend the tofu appetizer - I could have eaten the whole serving myself!

No pre warning about a fixed price menu Apart from that food was very average Does not compare to other Asian fusion restaurants like Dailo or lee’s - and overpriced by about 30-40%. Drinks were very syrupy
