Good service, food not great - Edit
Good service, nice staff, good music. But except the ribs - which were good but not the best I ever had - the food (Ban Ban Noodles & Kimchi Rice) was disappointing especially for the hefty price.

I like Soil because the food here is absolutely delicious. Especially things like the ribs and the Ben Ben noodles. I’m giving it 4 stars because I think it’s a little too expensive for what you get

Nice fusion restaurant - Edit
I had the bulgogi cheese steak. I would not have put bulgogi together with cheese and jalapenos, but it tasted great. Looking forward to trying the noodle menus next time.

Incredible! - Edit
The staff were super friendly. Food was incredible the burger was so cheesy and juicy. The kimchi loaded fries, was easily some of the best kimchi I’ve ever had. The tacos for starter and cheese cake for dessert also delicious!

Nice vegan place in the east of Amsterdam - Edit
I usually go to the West location of Soil, but it’s nice to have tried the East location as well. It’s in a multi-cultural street, so the vibe is different. The staff seems to be more social/chatty as well.
Read moreI tried the Kimchi reuben, which was huge and tasty. The chai latte was too sweet for my taste and also very foamy.

Thanks for visiting our East location! We’re glad you enjoyed the Kimchi Reuben and the different vibe of the neighborhood.

Tasty - Edit
I've enjoyed this 3 dishes the ribs (I was the most excited for this one as many people told many positive things about it/that excited that I haven't had the opportunity to take a picture), pulled pork burger and peanut butter curry. They were delicious. I have just one little note that the mains had a slightly note of spiciness

Delicious - Edit
Had the ribs and the peanut curry bowl with their “decent” (which was quite good) rose. So good, lots of leftovers. Also got a snickers bar to go. I recommend reservations - I didn’t make one but many people did.

Nice menu! - Edit
This café has a nice menu with many different choices, something you're not accustomed to as a vegan. When we entered, it didn't smell very fresh. The service was very good, but they were quite busy, so the food took longer than usual. The food was tasty however.
