Totally delicious 😙👌

We had a selection of starters, 2 mains and shared a dessert. Everything was really tasty, my favourite was the cabbage balls, the pickle veg, pineapple rice and the banana fritter. You can tell there is a lot of effort and thought put into the food. The staff were very nice and the vibe of the restaurant is very relaxing and beautiful. I definitely recommend 💚

Pros: Loads of choice , Loads of vegetables and fruit , Friendly staff

Absolutely amazing

We spontaneously went to Soul Vegan for dinner yesterday and it was totally worth it! 😍 The food was amazing as well as the staff - they were super nice and very attentive. We felt very welcome and enjoyed our dinner so much.

So much flavor!

I’ve never seen Malaysian food veganized like this — I wish I could’ve gone back again to try some other dishes!!

We got a bunch of starters and the Nasi Lemak. Highlight was definitely the Nasi Lemak and tofu satay.

Overall, I wish there were more “light” and protein-filled options. Many of the dishes were carb-based and deep fried. It was still a great experience, but I would go more often if it had more variety.

Incredible!

I discovered soul vegan a few weeks ago and have ordered three times since. The laska noodle soup is perfectly seasoned, the wonton and spring rolls super crispy! I will be in Edinburgh for 3 more weeks and will definitely order again before leaving!🌱🤍

Extremely popular

Really pleased we’d booked. When we arrived there were people outside waiting, hoping a table might become available. Every seat was taken, and in demand so when you’ve finished eating they really need you to leave.

The service is friendly despite them being busy all the time. The presentation of the food is lovely, and it’s tasty.

It’s a lovely space and even though it was packed it wasn’t too noisy. Looking forward to visiting again.

The hype is real!!

Absolutely delicious. Full of flavour.
Can understand why it was so busy on a Wed's evening at 6pm. Advise you book in advance.

So amazing I still haven't recovered

We ate so many dishes here, every single thing was delicious. The atmosphere was quiet, calm, perfect. The owner and chef is from Malaysia and wanted to share his culture and food. The portion sizes were generous, everything in homey feeling dishes, when you order tea it comes in a teapot enough for three or four cups of tea.
I ate here over a year ago and I still think of it fondly every once in awhile. I will definitely return.

Pros: Jasmine tea, Portion size, Atmosphere

Absolument incroyable

Les 5* devraient être réservées pour ce type de restaurants! La qualité et la richesse des plats sont absolument incroyables. Nous sommes revenu·es à plusieurs reprises pour pouvoir tester un maximum de plats. Ils sont tous aussi savoureux et originaux les uns que les autres, c'est une adresse à ne pas louper!

Pros: Plats très savoureux - Very tasty food, Diversité de la carte - Diversed menu, Service parfait - Perfect service

Cons: Pas d'explications sur les plats

Scrummy

Scrummy food, lovely and piping hot. Good options to choose from.
We had the Laksa, Gan Lau mee and the special tofu along with the Mapo tofu which was delicious. I really enjoyed the Char Sui in my Gan Lau mee and at first I thought it looked like a small portion but actually it was the right amount of noodles. Yeah I really love a good amount of food 😆. My husband had the special tofu which was nice enough but he thought it was too expensive for two fried stuffed tofu and tender stem broccoli. We also had the salt and pepper chips which didn’t taste like it had any seasoning but just fried with peppers and a little lemongrass.
Staff were overall friendly although we did feel rushed by one member of staff as she quickly cleared bowls as soon as she thought someone had finished. We had only been in there for about 45 minutes so we certainly weren’t holding a table up. However food was spot on and we would definitely return. Make sure you book though as it’s very busy.

Pros: Great food, All vegan

Cons: We felt rushed by one member of staff

Tout est bon, beau, quel plaisir de découvrir ces saveurs.
Le resto est petit mais chaleureux, service rapide et impeccable . Si vous mangez a l’heure anglaise je vous recommande de reserver cependant.

Really good laksa

100% vegan! We got the laksa, BBQ combination, and the fried tofu. The laksa was really flavourful, all portions were generous. The seitan in the laksa and BBQ combo was a little softer than I prefer still very delicious. The fried tofu was nice but lacked a bit of flavour, still no regrets - and the broccoli it comes with was perfect.

Quick, friendly service. Definitely recommend - but make sure you book. The space is small and it’s frequently full. If you can’t get in for dinner, it’s worth going for lunch since the menu is the same.

Also reasonable prices for Edinburgh considering the size and quality.

Wish we would have had room for dessert! Something to look forward to next time 😁

Pros: Laksa, Service speed and friendliness, Portion sizes are generous

Cons: Deep fried tofu only okay

Perfection 🍜

For anyone that appreciates the magic of asian flavours, this is the best place in Edinburgh. Amazing service as well. The only way they could improve is by extending their opening hours and maybe moving to a bigger space as the current one can feel a little claustrophobic when it’s busy.
