Tucked inside of Whole Foods is PLNT Burger with meaty vegan burgers! I've ordered from the app on more fingers and toes that I can count and delightfully made my rounds through the menu. The sweet potato fries, Mint Cookies and Cream Shake are my go-to favorite sides!
PLNT has changed its recipes and some of the chik'n which used to be breaded oyster mushrooms and then a mock meat to Meati Mushroom Root Cutlet and now Tindle Cutlet.
Where did the Crispy Chik'n Funguy sandwich go? My beloved meaty breaded fried oyster mushrooms that taste just like crispy chicken tenders. What happened to it??? While Crispy Chik'n is good, it doesn't beat the Funguy sandwich!
Green Bean Fries (5/5) - Please bring back, sadly no longer on the menu! Surprisingly crispy and delicious! A fun way to get your nutrients and enjoy green beans coated in breadcrumbs with quinoa, corn, and flax seeds. The herb dipping sauce pairs really well!
Sweet Potato Fries (5/5) - Love these fries, must have! Perfect sweet and salty combo! The maple mustard and house dipping sauces pair well.
Garlic herb Fries (4/5) - The herb dipping sauce pairs well with the fries.
Mushroom Bacon BBQ (5/5) - Tangy meaty burger with Beyond the Meat patty, crispy onion "bloomies", oozing with cheddar cheese and smothered in bbq sauce. One time, I swapped out the Beyond Burger patty for the Chik'n patty, which didn't pair well. Recommend eating this burger right away, it gets soggy fast!
Baja Burger (5/5) - My favorite Beyond Meat burger with a spicy kick! The fried jalapenos are super spicy - next time I'm opting out of them. While I wasn't a fan of the vegan pepper jack cheese, the guac, caramelized onions, spicy chipotle mayo added a nice sweet and savory flavor and helped to round out the burger. Fingerlick' good!
Steakhouse Burger (5/5) - Zesty, fully-loaded burger with a bold bbq flavor from the Beyond the Meat paddy, caramelized onions, mushrooms, mini shoestring fries, cheddar cheese and smothered in bbq sauce. The onion poppy-seed bun really elevates the flavor.
Crispy Chik'n (4/5) - I couldn't tell the difference between the Meati and the new Tindle Cutlets, they both similarly taste like a chicken tender. The pickles and garden herb help to elevate the flavor.
Grilled Chik'n Burger (1/5) - Not a fan of the grilled chik'n burger, it had a weird rubbery texture. After a couple of bites, I threw in the towel.
Actually Veggies Burger (2/5) - I wanted to love the burger and rooting for it because it's so healthy, but it's so mushy and bland. Tastes just like the vegetarian NoBull Burger. Least flavorful of all the burgers.
Chili Bowl (3/5) - The beans and mock beef chili had an interesting sweet and savory flavor with a spicy kick! Sadly it didn't come as advertised and was missing the best toppings - sour cream, scallions, and corn. These toppings would have helped to balance out the flavor. Wish corn tortilla chips came with the chili. The chili just felt incomplete. I ended up buying a bag of fresh tortilla chips at Whole Foods and some guac, which helped to elevate the flavor!
Lil' Dippers (3/5) - Look like crispy tater tots and taste like mini chicken nugget made of soy. While fun to try a couple, 8 of them are quite a bit in a serving and would my appetite for a burger or wings.
Wings - They look and taste like chicken nugget, my daughter couldn't tell the difference between the meaty and vegan nuggets. The BBQ wings were a bit messy and paired well with the Ranch sauce, they were my pick over the Plain wings. 4 come in a serving.
Mint Cookies and Cream OATasty Shake (5/5) - Hands-down my favorite shake, tastes like a decadent milk shake and like a healthy vegan McFluffy.
S'mores OATasty Shake (5/5) - The chocolate milk shake made with oat milk topped with a ginormous toasted marshmallow is the perfect sweet treat!
Banana Creme Brulee OATasty Shake (3/5) - Very banana forward!
Chocolate OATasty Shake, (4/5) - I recommend getting a flavored shake.
