Homemade. - Edit
We had burgers and a bowl. Forgot the name of the noodle bowl. Was written that it was spicy. But...the creamy and the spicy flavor where just too much. Half way i was full. Little disappointed I couldn’t eat further. Although I’m used to spicy. I think I am ...
Read morenever the less it was not small, enough. Still curious for the other bowls. The burger was tasty. And the service was warm. Thanks.
Pros: Service , Nice portions.
Cons: Bowl was Too spicy and creamy.

Could be better - Edit
I was really excited to go to this cafe but left a little disappointed. We sat at a wooden table with grime and old food between the slats, to move to a cleaner table. The table next to us was never wiped down and the books they have as a part of their library definitely needed a wipe too.
Read moreIt had such potential and the food was okay but it just lacked that little extra love.
They were really helpful with my partners allergens which is one of the only reasons we stayed.
Pros: Cool vibe , Good with allergens
Cons: Dirty tables , Very wet toilet floor , Lacking love

Decent food & experience! - Edit
I tried the Ben Ben Noodles and Miso Salad here, both of which were super solid but not exceptional. They tasted nice, but the Miso Salad was missing the smoked tofu entirely and both dishes were overwhelmed with sauce/dressing.
Read moreThe restaurant is in a great location and has a cozy interior. Overall, I’m happy with my experience at SOIL but might not put it at the top of my list for future visits, or would opt for different menu items.

Incredible - Edit
The Ribs were absolutely delicious. The only bad thing about it was that I didn’t order more of it. The kimchi burger was a home run too. Staff and chef were super friendly too. 10/10

Great vegan food - Edit
Loved the smoky eggplant dip to start. Had peanut butter curry which was good, although could have been a bit spicier for my taste (I also didn't ask, so fair enough). Decadent and yummy cheesy cake at end - very delicious :)

Unfortunately very disappointing - Edit
I read good reviews about this restaurant, therefore I decided to try it while staying in Amsterdam.
Read moreI was unfortunately very disappointed.
I ordered the kimchi fried rice with edamame and black fungi. My dish had no edamame beans nor fungi. I asked the waitress, and she gave me a couple of cold edamame directly from the fridge. My bowl was ruined, the service was very poor as they did not even try/offer to improve the situation. I do not recommend at all this restaurant.
Cons: Poor service , Unfriendly staff, Poor customer service

Good range of vegan flavours - Edit
A very nice place to eat. Relaxing atmosphere and good food with some tasty and interesting options. They make their own pickles etc. which gives the food a depth of flavour and range of contrasting options. You may need to book as it is a popular spot!

One of the best in Amsterdam - Edit
The place is super cozy and you can go for a warm drink either for a meal.
Read moreI had many times their Oat Chai Latte, which is fantastic!
The plates are all bowls and for me their best option is the Peanut Curry Bowl which is a Thai-inspired dish with a lot of veggies, chickpeas and peanuts flavoured curry. You can then add your preferred carb (like quinoa, rice, etc).
Pros: All vegan bowls , You can add your favourite carb , Cozy and warm place

Small cafe with busy atmosphere - Edit
Good food but quite pricey, unfortunately. Service was good!
Read morePros: All vegan
Cons: Expensive

Thanks for the review. Unfortunately the price comes with the cost of our top quality ingredients and the fact that we spent countless hours in prepping our house-made ingredients. Hope you understand and to see you soon.

Ok - Edit
It is really just ok and not necessarily value for money. The food was basic and we waited for it at least 1 hour. When after 1h, I asked the waitress how long it was going to take, she said it was almost ready but it has been very busy and that is why it is taking so long. I turned around and saw 3-4 tables and there were no more than 3 tables when we arrived. It took them at least 10-15 min to bring us a bottle of wine with 4 glasses. My jackfruit burger was very very basic. I could prepare it at home in 2 min.

A Delightful Vegan EXPERIENCE - Edit
My wife and I (both of us vegan) visited the restaurant for a dinner not having read any reviews beforehand. It has an unassuming but cool atmosphere with a small library of plant-based and other interesting books. Also on display are a number of their pickles and spice.
Read moreThe dishes on their small winter/fall menu were all clearly creatively and carefully selected to provide optimal health and flavour, We shared the “ribs" smothered in a rich BBQ sauce as a starter. We have sampled many seitan ribs in the past and this is one of the better in terms of flavour and texture. They could have been slightly firmer though to give a more authentic ribs eating experience.
For mains, I ordered the Ben Ben Noodles with a creamy sesame sauce, sticky meatballs, pak soy, crispy chilli oil, scallions and pickles. It was really delicious, rich and indulgent. My wife ordered the Peanut Butter Curry
with smoked tofu, pumpkin, celeriac, carrot, parsnip, slaw, peanuts, coriander and white rice. She really enjoyed the dish, and the smoked tofu was particularly tasty.
We shared the baked cheesecake for dessert which we both commented was one of the best vegan cheesecakes that we have eaten.
Service was helpful, friendly and fast. A delightful experience overall!
Pros: Very tasty, Cool atmosphere, Helpful staff

Dont order the chips - Edit
Great, little café. Its cosy with a nice, busy atmosphere. We had some starters and both the burger with "chips". The starters were really nice, as were the burgers. The chips were actually just crisps, the ones you buy in a bag in the supermarket. For 2.5 I expected chips as in fries or wedges to go with that wonderful burger.

Cons: Dont order the chips.

A pleasant discovery - Edit
We tried this venue by chance thanks to HappyCow because The Meatless District was closed unexpectedly (changed opening hours). A pleasant discovery. Definitely worth trying the Ben Ben Noodles.
