Best Vegetarian / Vegan Restaurants in North Bethesda

I've been there many times. Truly varied, sophisticated, and nuanced Afghan cuisine--well beyond just the kabobs that dominate many other Afghan restaurant menus. Good service, reasonable prices considering the quality of the food, and tables well spaced and thus the noise level is rarely if ever a problem, unlike at so many other restaurants nowadays.

We met friends from out of town at True Food, as they were staying at a nearby hotel. We thought we were booking a brunch reservation. Somehow, the reality that brunch is only served on weekends wasn't clear when I made the reservation, so I was a bit disappointed that brunch foods weren't available on a Friday. The food we ordered was tasty, however, & the service was friendly & efficient. The squash pizza was especially good & perfect for splitting. One of the diners was not enthusiastic about his burger (He said it was rather dry...), but we all appreciated being able to sit, eat slowly, & chat eagerly without being rushed by the server.

Phenomenal experience celebrating a special occasion. The meal was memorable and incredible! And not all of us are vegan!

We ate at Mita for their unbelievable Tasting menu for my birthday. It was an absolute production from the moment we walked in until we were escorted out the door. We have eaten in 5 star Michelin restaurants in major cities all over the world, and Mita fits in every well with them. Each time we thought it couldn’t get any better, another amazingly creative, delicious dish showed up to wow our senses. The food was beautifully plated and the servers are experts at the placement and description of them. The entire experience was one for the record books. My birthday was perfect.

The service, ambiance, food, and everything was great! I would highly recommend PLANTA to others and I look forward to revisiting PLANTA again!
