Vegan Louisiana Creole Cuisine Back in Oakland - Edit
Super stoked to see Souley Vegan back in action keeping the dream alive! I was fond of their journey and totally dig the new place. It’s currently in its soft opening and is cashless, using QR code to view menu/place orders.
Read moreYou may sit anywhere, the vibe is very cool with personal photographs along the walls and a large open seating area.
I ordered the Combo tasting platter - didn’t disappoint, those collard greens had NO chance! Highly recommend the yams and BBQ tofu as well! I love mixing the sweet and savory flavors. Great presentation and portions. Also ordered the cornbread, which due to sizing I had to get it for takeaway!
While they are in their soft opening, service may be slightly delayed or confusing if you don’t know it’s cashless - like me when I was like, “where do I order?” Bring kindness and enjoy!
Pros: Fully Vegan/Plant-Based, Original OG Vegan Spot in the Bay Area, Amazing Chef Tamearra Dyson and Friendly Service
Cons: Recommend More Sustainable Packaging for Takeaway

I haven’t even left this place yet - Edit
and I had to immediately write about how good this food is.
Read moreMy partner got the Chicken and Waffles, and they said it is the best vegan chicken they have ever tasted. The waffles were amazing too, I stole a piece :p
I got the Country Steak Plate which came with collard greens and mashed potatoes. Delicious mashed potatoes!! And I wolfed down the collard greens.
The place was great, too. Great music and amazing sound.
Pros: Best vegan chicken, Good music, Good portions

Good comfort food⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Edit
I’ve been to their other restaurant before. This one is way cooler. The ordering system is go to a table and order off a QR code. Staff was really friendly. The BBF burger and fries were good and messy😜 Had Beignets for appetizers.
Read moreThe new location is big and kind of fancy.
