I am SO glad this restaurant is here. My sister & I have tried to go vegan for health reasons 2 other times, but it is very time-consuming. This place is perfect for our in-between cooking meals! The food was Soooooo delicious, we had the nacho bae and the Philly bae. We added the best fries I have ever tasted too. They stayed crispy the entire meal. I love that it was a mix of regular & sweet potato fries. Followed by the best lemonade ever!! I'm probably going to eat hear weekly since it's in town. I'm so excited to try everything on the menu. Thank you, PlantBae, for coming to town!!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Honest review: I see only a lot of positive reviews, and I just don't think this place lives up to it yet.. First, we are a 100% vegan couple, so we come from that perspective. We heard there was a vegan place in Auburn and were excited to check it out. We got the plant bae burger and the cauliflower wings with fries. The burger was mediocre, had odd flavor combinations like jalapeños, and pickled onions and also hints of sweetness i couldn't pinpoint. It was a mushy combination and I didn't love it. The wings were OK, but they came with the smallest amount of honey BBQ sauce. When we asked for a little more sauce, I was told it would cost $1.47. I'm not really mad at any business trying to make a little money, but it seemed a little petty. There was no ketchup or anything for the fries that came with it. The whole wing and fries were a little dry. As for all the reviews saying the service was great, you order on a kiosk and never talk to anyone. There was a guy there, but he was in the back cooking and didn't talk to us, greet us, or make any recommendations. Again, not that big of a deal, but also not my definition of great customer service. They keep all the drinks and water in the back, so it was hard to get our drinks since the guy is cooking and not really paying attention to the front. I was torn between giving a rating of 2 stars or 3 stars since it is vegan, which comes at a handicap. But ultimately I asked myself if I'll ever go back, and I probably won't, so gotta go with 2 stars. Had such high hopes for this place!

The food was so delicious and the owner is super kind and helpful. We loved the cauliflower wings and the sweet potato fries were impeccable! My daughter actually ATE the cauliflower wings & the fries, which is a major win for us. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a vegan spot to bring their friends!
