   Visited for the first time for Valentines Day and was excited to try vegan food in BR (not many options). Overall service was very poor; waited 1hr before getting our appetizer & another 40 min for entree, waiters did not know what was going on (saw multiple waiters bringing wrong food to tables several different times), and waiter only came to the table once every 30 min. Food had no seasoning and was undercooked. We were shocked at how poor the experience was for how much we paid. Only reason we stayed was because our credit card was held for the reservation and set event menu. Will not visit again.

   AWESOME dining experience! It was the perfect Valentine's Day environment to propose to my girlfriend. I really appreciate the way the owner accommodated us because it wouldn't have been as special for my fiancée and I if the owner hadn't made special provisions for us. The fact that the owner went out of her way for us speaks volumes to her willingness to go out of her way to make the dining experience exquisite for ALL of her patrons! My fiancée and I will recommend The Plantry Cafe to everyone we know! Thanks for making Valentine's Day 2025 so special!

   What a beautifully decorated and charming gem the Plantry Cafe is! My friend and I had a wonderful dinner experience, and although I am not vegan, everything we had was delicious! The Peartini was a great vodka based cocktail, very smooth and not overly sweet. We had the flat bread, Brussels, roasted Maitake, and the trio of Sliders. All were great, but the roasted Maitake over Gouda polenta was a 20/10, chefs kiss! Service and ambiance were excellent. Thank you for making our first visit worthwhile and memorable! We will definitely be back.

   A group of friends met for lunch. The restaurant is decorated so well & the plant based food was delicious! Everyone enjoyed the experience especially Dr. Crifasi telling us about how she started The Plantry!

   This is our 2nd time at this restaurant and it is still impressive in the creativity of the chef/owner in what she can do with vegan dishes. I will definitely go back. Great and unusual experience.

   The restaurant is beautiful, and the meal and service were excellent. The ingredients were healthy and very fresh, and the combination of flavors made for a delicious meal. This is one of the best natural food restaurants I have frequented and the best one in Baton Rouge, and there is no other restaurant like it in Baton Rouge. The servers were very attentive and kind. I highly recommend this restaurant.

   This restaurant is excellent. The food is like you are eating in France. Perfectly well thought out dishes with lots of detail. The decor was very nice and welcoming. The service was above and beyond. The owner / chef came out several times asking how everything was tasting. I loved every minute of my time at The Plantry Cafe.

   The food is absolutely incredible. You can’t go wrong with any of the sandwiches. The trumpet mushrooms and carrot lox are so good. I love the flatbread too. They also have great soups! Everything here is amazing.

    Super cute place. Love the vibe. Great blood orange mimosas. Good carrot lox. Was hopeful for a great gluten-free go-to since I have Celiac. It was Mother’s Day and they were apparently unexpectedly understaffed but even with the patience we were glad to grant, the experience was not remotely close to warrant the extremely pricey bill. You can’t charge Ruths’ Chris prices and provide poor service and mediocre food. Cucumber sandwiches were soggy and too much vinegar. Almond biscuits were salty. Cheesecake was a puddle with zero structure. Rosemary cookie was missing altogether. It was a high tea event and even that wasn’t good - one of the kettles was cold and there were no accompaniments as described in the menu. For our table of 4 gratuity was already included but should have been waived for everyone dining that day. I may go try it again on a non-holiday to see if this was a fluke. So disappointed.
