Plum Burgers

Nice and friendly staff. I have gone alone and with others, I always feel welcome and taken care of. The food is amazing. I highly suggest the mama Africa salad, filling, delicious, and fun. The mix of the tempeh with sweet fruit and tangy sauce is a mind blowing experience in your mouth!

I really love Plum Bistro and have had awesome people bring me food from it and it was great! However, my main complaint about this truck is that it’s impossible to locate on Mondays at the Microsoft Redmond location. They provide an address on their website but they never seem to be there. I was craving Plum today so spent 15 minutes searching for them with no luck. It would be nice if they would keep people posted about where they’ll be. I’d love to give you my money so you can give me some if your addictive food but, alas, you’re nowhere to be found. Also, one of the only times I’ve found them the girl was pretty rude. So, no fun for me either way.

Reliably delicious food. I’ve had about half the things on the menu — they all kind of blend together for me, but they’ve all been thoroughly enjoyed. Milkshakes are a+. They’ll throw in a side of aioli instead of ketchup with the fries if I ask. The sandwiches and burgers are all decked out with great spreads and tasty things like grilled onions.
It’s a little bit spendy (though definitely the most reasonable piece of plum’s empire) and I realized after leaving last week that I was charged for an additional dish that I didn’t buy. No response from Plum when I emailed to follow up. However, I went back this week and we were spontaneously gifted an extra mac and yease that they had hangin around (karmic balance?).
On the mac and yease front: I get it now. I’m not a fan of mac and cheese generally, so I had planned to live a macnyease-​free life despite the raves about Plum’s version. However, who says no to free food? And I’m SO glad I did. Somehow it is fluffy. And cheesy. And creamy. Just… decadent. Yum.
All told, I’ll keep going back.

Very good burger and mac n yeast. The sandwich isnt so good. its too crunchy so you dont get to enjoy the food as much as you want to.

I normally get the buffalo portobello burger, but everything I’ve had is good. The fries are some of the best in town – rosemary, the perfect amount of salt, and the right crispy to greasy ratio. They’re pricey for a food truck, though.

I’ve seen this food truck downtown many times, but never stopped to try them out. I heard a lot of good things about them and glad I checked them out!
Given that it is a food truck, I think they have a pretty good sized menu. About 5 «burger» selections, about another 5 «sandwich/​wraps» selection, and a small section for sides and shakes.
I got the «Fremont Philly»…its their version of the Philly Cheese Steak. It didnt really remind me of any cheese steaks I’ve ever ordered but it was still good. Its basically cooked seitan, with some mushrooms & peppers, nutritional yeast based cheeze sauce… aka «Nooch» for the cheese part… all on a good hoagie roll, not sure where they get their bread from but its pretty good. A little messy when eating it but whatever, most importantly it was tasty!
My friend got the «SLT» (Seitan, Lettuce, Tomato) with fries for an extra $ 2. It looked very tasty and she enjoyed it very much.
Glad they post up on 2^nd & Pike at least once a week, now I will stop by more often.
Im not a vegan nor vegetarian, but I do like the nice vegan twist on some familiar foods which makes it so approachable.

I should have taken a hint that my meal was about to be pretty mediocre by the look of disgust on the employee’s face. They were out of what I wanted and the server seemed pretty hard pressed to think of any thing he would recommend. We ordered the jerk burger, the pesto grilled cheese, and the purple haze. If someone drags you to this restaurant (I wouldn’t go out of your way to go there), I would go with the grilled cheese as it was the best of the three. Everything was pretty sloppy and weird with lots of sauces to soggy up the bread. Over all pretty disappointing, especially since Chuck’s normally has great food trucks.

Was walking around downtown looking for some vegan food and happened to see this truck. Came right before they were about to close and there was no line. They do take cards which was convenient.
Ordered the buffalo (panko crusted) portobello burger. Walked down to the market to eat it. Bun did get a little soggy but that was my fault for not eating it immediately. There was a nice spiciness to the buffalo sauce. Loved having the mixed greens and cucumbers on the burger. I was a little overwhelmed by the aioli though; the chef was a bit heavy handed with that but that’s probably my only complaint.
Lastly, which has nothing to do with the food itself but was the location. the downtown location for these food trucks kinda stink. There’s really no where to sit and eat.

I got the Kale Caesar Tempeh Burger and it was amazing! I want to eat that every week! (I wish the truck wasn’t going to be leaving Chucks on 85^th on Saturdays for August) The bun does fall apart a bit, but messy food is always the best. Also got the oreo shake, which is essentially an oreo coconut shake, and I love it! Very sweet, just as a shake should be. No need for fries, sooo full.

Vegetarians need higher standards or we’ll be stuck with mediocre food forever. The yam fries were burnt, the jerk yam sandwich fell apart (they had to improvise with a bun of mysterious provenance), and the regular fries (when they ran out of yam fries) were missing the promised cilantro and pitifully limp. These are state fair prices for ho-​hum food. I guess those are the breaks when you are at Chuck’s Hop Shop on Saturday night. They should find a better food truck for such a busy night. No shortage in Seattle.

I had the Mediterranean 8 oz Burger the other day and thought it was pretty good. This option was highly recommended by the staff and here are my thoughts:
*mint-​spiced seitan– think crumbled, skillet fried, and juicy– not bad for a meat substitute!
*onion jam– great
*pickled fig– I love all things fig– so coulda used a bit more fig taste on this one
*mozzarella– the nasty fake stuff
*arugula– fresh & crunchy.
The service was great, but the prices seemed a bit high– even after this 8 oz burger I was still a bit hungry… maybe they could throw in some fries?
All in all, a decent gourmet vegetarian burger option.

Tried this today at the Mobile Food Rodeo and, while I unfortunately didn’t try the burgers, I did grab an order of rosemary fries and a milkshake.
The rosemary fries were tasty… Although, not sure if they forgot it, but they had no rosemary taste. For $ 7, I kind of want them to be seasoned in a way that I could taste the rosemary.
The clincher for me was the cookies n’ cream «milk“shake. It is PHENOMENAL! It definitely has a strong coconut milk flavor — and I think that adds to it. I haven’t had a milkshake in agessss so I was pretty.damn.stoked.

Plum Burgers is a delicious dinner time food truck but they could improve their lunch menu. I had a tempeh burger and fries, which tasted really good, sure, but the meal had way too much garlic, which is an imposition at the office, and the food is so heavy it makes you want to take an afternoon nap.

I’ve seen this truck outside of
a couple of times a week, but never got out there to try it. Boy was I an idiot! I tried the Sweet Jamaican Wrap and it was outstanding. The line should have told me how good they are and now I know.
Next up. the Cookie & Cream milkshake. Another customer ordered this and it looks yummy.

Rough day service wise. After my aborted attempt at Than Bros. I decided to try this place. Ordered the portabello burger and Jamaican wrap to go. Since it was pouring out I asked for a rough eta and they said 10 minutes. Went into Chucks for a bit, came back out as I was not buying anything and braved the rain. At 10 minutes my name was called and i was presented with a lentil burger???
I gave my to go order again and was told it would be another 10 minutes waiting in the pouring rain. Food was presented around 7 minutes later, but in baskets, not to go. Wait in pouring rain a bit more. After all that the food was not bad, really liked the wrap. If they would of simply comped some fries or something to make up for their blunders I would probably be writing a 4 star review but nothing was offered, not even an apology.

Plum Burgers was parked outside of Chuck’s Hop Shop — what a treat! Our group ordered a range of their menu items and everything was a knock out. The panko crusted Portobello sandwich was super flavorful and the Jamaican wrap with the yams in it was a big hit. My 4 year old loved the faux mac and cheese. The only downer was the fries — they were oily and soggy instead of crispy and could have used a bit more salt. I’ll skip the fries next time.

I love this food truck. It’s been my incentive to brave the commute into the 206 on Wednesday when they grace 2^nd and Pike (possibly moving to the Seattle public library soon). I’ve have eaten nearly everything on the menu and have not never disappointed, but my favorite is the chipotle grill topped with awesome sauce.
The «text your order» in option doesn’t work very well, especially on Fridays.

I love this food truck. Just tried it today for the first time. The quality of the ingredients was excellent, the amount was overwhelming and the flavor was delicious. I am very impressed!

I had the kale & tofu salad and a side order of fries. The kale was raw, dressed with a soy-​ginger dressing, and quite tasty, though cut a bit large (I had to tear several pieces up to get them to fit in my face.) The fries came with a side of aioli, were long and neither too thick nor too thin (not shoestrings, not steak fries) and some had a bit of crisp potato-​peel still on them, which I find to be a nice touch.
All their take-​out ware appears to be compostable, as well, though I’m not 100% sure about the forks. But I thought that was another nice touch.
Service was excellent, and the guy who helped me was rather handsome :)

I was getting some lunch here last week when they were downtown in the parking lot with others. Nice color design, btw.
Great stuff. Good flavors. I’m fairly sure I got the Mediteranean with subbed curry yam fries. The burger may have been tempeh, I don’t mind, but the fries were definitely wrong: they were the regular fries. Mind you, like I said, they were great stuff but I may make sure they have my order correct, next time.
Note: It’s good to have cash on hand; sometimes the device has issues or is slow.
