Quite nice really

Updated from previous review, it's improved, the outdoor terrace is nice. I had the burger and pizza lunchtime special for 1300 bob. The seitan burger was decent enough, although the seitan was cold. The pizza toppings were plentiful and quite lovely, but rather ruined by being placed on the sort of cheap long life vacuum packed pizza base you'd find in a dodgy supermarket. The ginger juice was excellent. Service was fine. Pricing outrageous by local standards.

Amazing food

Service, food, portions, all perfect. Steven our waiter was amazing and recommended the fried tofu which was enormous so definitely something to share between a few people (but sooo delicious).
Also the BBQ tips and the gluten (seitan) burger were unreal.

Pros: Staff, Food, Portions

Best and most dedicated vegan restaurant in the country

They have burgers and pizzas but really you want to come for their soul food and brunch options served daily. I have a ton of vegan desserts

Pros: Soul food plate, Brunch plate, Chocolate chip cookies

Always good food

I've been a regular customer here for almost 2 years - the food is really tasty and the portions are huge! The desserts are great too but be aware that both the food and desserts are quite heavy(it's soul food after all!). Also it usually takes a long time to get your food, so make sure to go when you're not in rush ;)

Pros: Tasty food, All vegan

Cons: The food takes forever

Delicious, Filling, Many Options

I have been here a number of times since it opened, and had used their delivery option during the pandemic a few times. They feature home-made seitan dishes, home-made burgers and sausages, and a variety of other vegan dishes. To my knowledge it is one of only two completely vegan options in Nairobi. The plates are substantial and will fill you up. Brownies are also good if you like sweet things. They make custom cakes for birthdays and events.

Pros: Home-made seitan, sausages, burgers, Filling

Cons: Sometimes slow service

Really great food!

This is one of the best places for vegans I have eaten at in Nairobi. Food was soooo good, a little slow to be served but was worth the wait! Our server was really lovely too!

Very good comfort food

Bring your friends who are meat eaters (most are in Kenya) and they will love the mock-meat dishes

Updated from previous review on 2023-11-25

Pros: Taste , Mock-meat dishes to please meat eaters in Kenya, Pretty terrace

Cons: A tad pricey, but I guess it's the cost of quality

A little haven.

Great fast food. The food takes a while to arrive but that's because they make it fresh, so just relax and have a chat/read a book. The burger I had was warm rather than hot.

Pros: Junk food, Milkshakes

Cons: Make sure food is hot before serving

So good but soooo slow.

The good is really tasty and the portions are really big. In from America and it doesn’t taste like soul food at all-but a fusion of foods and flavors. They took 1.5 hours to complete my single order. The server was too sweet for me to even get mad. I’ll go back but I’ll call in my food instead of waiting so long.

Pros: The food

Cons: The wait time

Everything was delicious. Friendly service and decent eating area. The food is different from ATL, of course, but just as tasty!

Pros: The soy chunks with Matoke was delicious, The Mac n Cheese was very tasty, Food was prepared fresh

Cons: Slow to receive the delicious Tumeric tea

Special place

My husband and I simply loved this cute restaurant! The staff were kind and it has many plants on the outside area which makes it extra special. We ordered the Mac & cheese and a burger and it was absolutely delicious! We loved the food so much that we got their whatsapp number and ordered dinner. We had the pizza and the chocolate milkshake and it was, once again, very tasty! It's not cheap, but the portions were generously sized. We would definitely go back for more meals if we were staying longer in Nairobi.

Pros: Vegan, Delicious , Cute

Great brunch place

I ordered the brunch. And the pizza. And the tofu samosas. And the strawberry smoothie. Well - where I live vegan options are few. So when you get a place like this, with so many tantalising options, what can you do? I'd planned to take the pizza and samosas home for later, but I only got half way through the brunch. The portions are enormous! The brunch was scrambled tofu with greens and fried potato - a good mix of western and Kenyan. The pancakes it came with are a meal in themselves - and, I can confirm, very good even as the next day's breakfast, coming with a fruit compote and syrup. Smoothie too, made with almond milk (you get a choice of milks), was fantastic, and the pizza great. Service is exceptionally friendly, although allow time as everything seems to be made to order. Perhaps not the most ambient location, but they've done well with what they've got, and my only reservation would be the size of the portions. You can have too much of a good thing, so order judiciously.

A vegan treat

A lovely cafe with generous portion sizes - I had the Mac and cheese which is served with greens and bbq Seitan and it was great. Also really enjoyed the vanilla milkshake! They have an assortment of baked goods on offer too.

Wow. Great food and awesome selection! And all vegan!

We had two set lunch plates and an order of samosas. It was a crazy amount of food, and it was all really tasty and wonderful. I would highly recommend anyone go here and have a nice meal. They also got their baked goods early in the morning and they were wonderful as well. Cinnamon roll for the win!

Pros: All vegan!, Great selection

Cons: Expensive

Delicious and Delightful

This is such a great place for a meal. Sit on the porch amongst the plants and enjoy a delicious meal. I’ve been to the Atlanta location, and I have eaten at the original Chicago Soul Veg For years. This location definitely does stand up to the name!!! I had the Soul Platter that consisted of greens, Mac z& cheese, bbq twists, and salad. There was lots of foods and it was great to taste all of the local flavors! I truly enjoyed every bite, and I will be back again!

All vegan, all good

It's close to Sarit Center. Has a nice, green terrace and also space inside to sit. They have a menu with Pizzas, Burgers, daily lunch (when I was there it was mac and cheese) different kind of fries, like sweet potato or garlic fries. Moreover they have lots of vegan pastries. We bought the cinnamon roll and a cookie and it was delicious 😋 the food definitely makes you full 😁

Pros: All vegan, Nice green terrace , Varieties on food (fast food and pastries)

The food takes over an hour

Edit:: if the owner is from Atlanta she is certainly not in the building. The flavors are good but it is definitely not soul food flavors as described. I think this would have been a 4 star review if not for the 2 hour wait.

The mac and cheese taste more like a cheesy macaroni salad but hey 🤷🏽‍♀️ this ain't the south.

------

I'm still waiting. Hopefully it's worth it.

The server gave me a heads up that it would be 40 minutes. She called me about an hour later to let me know it was ready (I went for a walk, I appreciated the heads up). Now I'm back and waiting for someone to pop out. 1.5 hours so far. I'd love to change this to a positive review but how in the world does it take this long to make one dish for the only customer in your establishment?
