Plant Power is super cute, especially with their outdoor seating area. There is plenty of tables, chairs, and shade which can be enjoyed on a nice day in San Diego. Very aesthetic for taking nice Instagram pictures that's for sure.
I personally only got to try the soft serve ice cream. It's definitely the closest thing to soft serve ice cream in terms of texture but as for flavor, I would say no. There is a bit of an aftertaste that I can not describe. But it's definitely the best vegan soft serve that I've tried in San Diego thus far.
I don't recommend getting chocolate sauce with the soft serve as it is VERY overpowering. I could barely taste the soft serve itself because of this and had to dig from the inside out to get a taste of it. Plus literally I saw them squeeze it out of a Hershey's bottle, I legit have one of those at home for $3, you're gonna make me pay $1 extra dollar just for a couple of squeezes out of that bottle? Yeah no thanks. It's pricey to pay $5.33 for soft serve with chocolate syrup. I get that it's vegan, and vegan things are more expensive but still, come on. There are people who can't eat dairy due to allergies and that isn't by choice.
Also for whoever is serving the ice cream, if I'm going to pay $5.33, can you guys at least fill the middle?? My biggest pet peeve is when I dig into the middle of something and it's literally empty in the middle, like y'all cheating me from my money and taste buds
This spot is convenient for SDSU students but if you don't go to SDSU or live in the area, I wouldn't go cuz there is no parking unless you want to pay in the parking structures, just go to OB instead.
