Delightful - Edit
What you want from more of an upscale vegan place. Went in very hungry and tried a lot of things. Don’t sleep on the broccoli appetizer—that was my favorite dish.
Read moreThe ramen was my least favorite—would try a different main next time.
It is pricier, but the value for money feels right. We got a ton of dishes and drinks and our bill was under $200 for two people. We didn’t need to order as much as we did, but I only visit Chicago occasionally so it was a treat.
Pros: Great mocktails, Lots of choices

Amazing !!! - Edit
The best vegan restaurant in Chicago. I simply loved it.
Read moreThis planta is focused in oriental food ,so it's different to other Planta Queen I have been in other cities.
I recommend so badly the Japanese steak with chimichurri and the sushi Torched and pressed. Also using noodles are very good and the matcha cheesecake
Pros: Food!, Place , decoration

5-star all vegan - Edit
We originally planned to have dinner elsewhere, but elected to go somewhere closer to our hotel. We're so glad we diverted!
Read moreWe started with the kimchi bao and 1000 layer potatoes. We both agreed we could've each eaten several plates of the potatoes alone. Any meat 'n' potatoes dad from West Coast to East Coast, the Midwest and beyond would have said the same. Kimchi bao could have benefited from smaller cabbage bits, but the crispy mushrooms were so good.
I'd been dying to try some unagi eggplant and it did not disappoint. Love the smoky seared teriyaki flavors. The udon noodles also had a really rich smoky flavor that I loved.
The ahi watermelon nigiri was not as good as I'd hoped, but a fun creative option!
For dessert we shared the matcha cheesecake & chocolate brownie. Yum!
Pros: Friendly and attentive service!, Able to get us in without reservation., Ambiance & volume.

I wanted to like this place more. - Edit
The concept is good and the service is really great, full of nice people. The food, however, felt like it could have been more flavorful and presented better. Overall for the price, there is better vegan food to be had elsewhere.

Cons: Presentation of certain dishes, Dishes lack flavor, Overpriced for what you’re getting

A great dining experience - Edit
We split the Bang Bang Broccoli, 1,000 Layer Crispy Potatoes, “Beef” and Broccoli, and Thai Lettuce Wraps. Narrowing it down to these four things was difficult, as there’s so much to choose from. I especially loved the Thai Lettuce wraps, which is something that’s out of my typical comfort zone. Everything was delicious and the entree portions are pretty substantial. Definitely on the higher end price wise, but very much worth it.

Late night option - Edit
I only went here because all the other vegan spots in downtown Chicago were shut. After having had this food for the second time—the first was in DC— I think I want to say this is for rich people who aren't picky about their protein requirements. I got the fried rice and the watermelon sushi. Worth noting that adding any kind of protein is a surcharge. Neither itemswere impressive or layered or rich, taste wise. The only upsides of going to the place are the ambience and decent service. Besides that, I suppose I will always stick to eating the tastier and more voluminous food things you can buy at other places. But I guess it's nice to know that vegan fine dining is a thing.

Impressed - Edit
I’ve only ordered once. Having said that, I really liked what I had. It seems a bit high end. I’d like to investigate more of the menu.

Loved the Spicy Tuna - Edit
Went by myself and got served at the bar. Great customer service at the bar. Tried the spicy tuna and UNAGI EGGPLANT. Both were amazing! I dropped by during happy hour and pricing was great especially in the downtown area. Will be going back again before leaving Chicago. The restaurant itself was beautiful and clean. Staff were great!

Be my Queen - Edit
Hip spot - heavy on the sushi influence - we went a bit crazy and ordered 6 things after a visit to Wrigley. I really like what they are doing here, good flavors, cool presentation.
Read moreI'll go with the Chicken Fried mushrooms and the 1000 layer potato. And the Mat cha cheesecake was a great finish.
This is worth a stop and visit .
Pros: Nice ambience , Funky and Fun, Rare - sushi vibe
Cons: None

Such creative food - Edit
This place was incredible!! My favorite was the eggplant nigiri. Also ordered the crab rangoon dip, the lettuce wraps (both not pictured) and the firecracker roll. Everything was delicious and not as expensive as I thought it would be.

Perfect - Edit
Started with the portobello nigiri- great start! Sprinkled with just the right amount of wasabi powder (for those of us who don’t tolerate heat well) and extra wasabi on the side (for those that can handle it). I had the Poke Bowl - so much going on in there! Chunchy fried mushrooms; creamy avocado; spicy mayo - so good!

Planta queen feels like a modern, high-end restaurant that happened to be vegan. The food is creative and very tasty. The layered potatoes and the sushi were a beautiful treat, staff was friendly and attentive. 5/5

Incredible food, service needs improvement - Edit
Had an incredible dinner here; nothing about the food to fault. Beautiful presentation, nuanced flavors, absolutely delicious. The restrooms were disappointing (gross), but I was willing overlook that. Went back for lunch a few days later and was treated poorly by the host, and seated at a table with food on the seats. Walked out.

Go here - Edit
So so delicious! The udon noodles are to die for as always. The peanut pie was amazing! And the sushi continues to be impressive. It's not quite the vibes of their Toronto location but the food is on point just like Toronto and New York.
