One of the best vegan restaurants I ever ate at

OK, I'm a bit late with my review, but better late than never. We visited this restaurant in November last year and the visit is still fond in my memories. The service was amazing, we had a good talk with the waiter, and the food was absolutely great! As I'm writing this, I'm already thinking of my next visit there😄We had "King Oyster mushrooms with lemon sauce" and the pineapple fried rice. Amazing!!!

What a find!

Loved it here, sad we only found it on our last day in the city or we'd have eaten here every night, well maybe not every but most nights. I had one of the specials and my wife had the rendang curry with tofu which was altered to her request.

Pros: The food was amazing, The staff were very attentive , The service

Absolutely wonderful!!

Completely blown away at how wonderful this gem is - as a fairly recent convert away from meat I can confirm the char Sui is as good or better than the pork equivalent. Tofu satay is a dream and rounded off with magnificent banoffee fritters and ice cream. So very pleased to have found this place!!

Pros: The food, The flavours, The friendly staff

Cons: Nothing at all to dislike!

Taste sensation!

Got delivery from here so can’t speak for the restaurant experience but the food was absolutely amazing. I tried the laksa noodles, sweetcorn fritters and the gyoza and all were fantastic. If I’m in Edinburgh again I’d definitely like to eat in and try some different things from the menu as it all sounded great. Was exploring the city and found out about this place from some local vegans doing street activism so a big thank you to them for this recommendation!

Incredible flavours

Hands down one of the best vegan meals we've ever had. We've been vegan for over 4 years and during that time have travelled around Europe sampling as many different restaurants as possible. After a long day in Edinburgh we called Soul Vegan to try and get a table and despite the fact it was Saturday and they were very busy they did their best to get us a table.
As we're not familiar with Malaysian cuisine the staff were extremely helpful with helping us choose a few dishes.
We ordered the satay tofu, salt and pepper lotus, Laksa, and Gan Lau Mee (between 2 of us). Very generous portions (we could not finish everything) and absolutely incredible flavours!
PS: we highly recommend trying the Laksa!

Pros: Food, Staff, Location

DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU HAVE A PEANUT ALLERGY

Everything in this restaurant contains peanuts and even the non peanut dishes are cooked in the same wok. Peanuts didn’t even cross my mind when I was in Malaysia and were not an issue. The food that I did have was too plain and I would not recommend.

Updated from previous review on 2022-11-20

Pros: All vegan

Cons: Peanut central

Excellent food

We had really tasty dishes and did not have to wait long for the food to arrive. The only negative thing was the location, it seemed a bit overcrowded (which is a good sign anyways). Definitely recommend!

Pros: Everything we ate was delicious, Reasonable prices , Very friendly staff

One of the best meals I’ve ever had

I came here for dinner on the weekend with my partner and a friend and the food, the service and the atmosphere were all incredible! We had a bit of a wait to get in as we wanted to sit inside and didn’t have a reservation but it was 100% worth it! I had the fried mushrooms and the Laksa and the Laksa was one of the best meals I have ever eaten! The service was also superb with regular top ups of water and kind, friendly, helpful staff who were wonderful even though clearly they are very busy during the Fringe! I will absolutely be back and recommending Soul Vegan to everyone I know.

Very happy with the noodles

Got the wonton soup noodle and noodle with char sui. Very happy with both. Didn’t eek out similar dishes at some of our other favorite vegan restaurants back home, but still really nice food!

Pros: Outdoor seating option, Good portions, Fried wontons

Cons: Soup a little too salty, Noodles a little too sweet for me

Fantastic Food & Fantastic Staff

We went here on a busy evening during the Edinburgh Fringe & despite not having a reservation, the staff were very accommodating & found us a table. The food is all freshly prepared so given how busy they were, we did wait a while but it was worth it. We loved it so much we went the following evening between shows & again, the staff were very helpful when we said we were short of time, suggesting dishes that were the quickest to prepare.

The Katsu Curry King Oyster Mushroom & Singapore Fried Noodle dishes were particularly delicious.

Pros: The food, The staff, The location
