One reviewer, Franchino Er Criminale, put the Bacon Plant to the test. He called it “tasty but small for the price,” assigning a precise 7.5/10.

Reviewers rave about the "Bacon Plant" as the standout dish, praising its smoky, savory depth. The overall vibe is one of hearty, plant-based comfort that satisfies even the most dedicated carnivore.
“I got the Bacon Plant — it's €9 for just the sandwich, but the menu at €14 includes fries and a drink, which is better value. The sandwich is a bit small for €12. It has a barbecue sauce, caramelized onion, and the plant-based bacon. The burger inside is cooked well, thick, big. The bacon I would have made crunchier to give a different texture. But honestly, you don't miss the taste of meat at all — you eat well, the flavour is good. It's a good sandwich that has nothing to envy of a real meat burger. Its limits are the size for the price and the bacon texture. I'd give it 7.5 — it's a valid alternative for a different lunch or to digest better.”
