Great for brunch

Under Chef David Lee, PLANTA is dining as it should be- an un-guilty pleasure. Created in 2016, PLANTA is a celebration of delicious and innovative plant-based cuisine served in a beautifully designed space, without pretension and with an overflow of good vibes. PLANTA Bethesda offers signatures like Ahi Watermelon Nigiri and Bang Bang Broccoli while expanding on the plant-powered menu, offering even more in the way of Sushi, Pizza, sustainably-crafted cocktails, and more. PLANTA reimagines and reinvents plant-based dining, providing flavorful (and fun) proof the the power of plants can change the world.

The food was amazing and our server was very knowable and helpful. But for a lunchtime reservation it took over 30 minutes for us to get our food which was a bit disappointing since the restaurant was nearly empty. They comped an extra item I requested on my pizza.

Service was terrible. It was not the server's fault. He simply had too many tables. The menu item of "Sushi Roll" was some rice on paper with stuffing. Somepne forgot to roll the roll. The pizza was cool and not up to snuff. Actually, the salad was quite good. Capitol Grille, he we come.
