Very delicious food - Edit
The restaurant is very well limited for which reason I was only able to go there with a strict time slot at an off-peak time. The recommended dishes were both very delicious. The team was very friendly and attentive.

Incredible food - Edit
I can see why this place has mostly 5 stars! It was delicious. It was so busy inside when we stopped by, every table was full, which is always a good sign. So many incredible dishes to choose from. We got the romantic sampler and a traditional Malaysian dish with coconut rice as well as tom yum soup. It was really hard to choose bc everything looked amazing but I think you probably cannot go wrong here. Service was lovely. The person I assume to have been the owner was especially warm and friendly. I would not hesitate to come here when in the area!! I would eat here all the time if I could!😄

We passed by Edinburgh and had amazing food here. Can definitely recommend! We were lucky we got a table with no reservation as we came before the evening rush.

Best vegan restaurant - Edit
Amazing vegan food and friendly staff! I had one appetizer and one of the soups as my main and both were phenomenal. I would go back all the time if I lived in Edinburgh. Don’t miss out on this place!

Delicious but very expensive - Edit
I had the deep fried tofu with stir fried rice. Everything was delicious, if a little salty for my personal taste (but I have a very low salt tolerance so I doubt that would be the case for most people). Friendly staff keeping your water glass full thé whole time, and very speedy cooking. My one complaint is that the mains don’t come with a carb, so what is already quite expensive requires you to get a side too. For me, I’d prefer the price to be a tiny bit higher but come with rice or noodles or something, as paying £4-5 on top of a £14 main comes to a lot.

Great food, terrible reservation system - Edit
The food was incredible but unfortunately you have to give your credit card information to make a reservation and the amount will be reserved for a week. We didn't want to do that so we went there without a reservation. We were asked to sit next to the door, even though the restaurant was almost empty and remained that way for the entire time we were there. People kept opening and not properly closing the door and it was freezing cold. The people were very nice but pretty overbearing. Someone stopped by our table every few minutes to ask how everything was and if we needed anything. While I appreciate the sentiment, it was impossible to have a conversation or even just eat without constantly being interrupted.
Read morePros: Great food, Affordable prices
Cons: Annoying reservation system, Overbearing waiters, Tables next to the door

Fully vegan comfort food with rich flavours - Edit
We went here spontaneously and were lucky to get a table for two as it was very packed and most tables were booked.
Read moreDespite that, staff were very friendly. The food was served quickly and the portion sizes were very good.
We had the sweet corn fritters and satay tofu as starters and the wantan noodles and mapo tofu as mains. All of it was delicious, flavourful and well-made. I would have loved to try some dessert too, but we just couldn't eat any more :D
Pros: Very quick, Friendly staff, Great flavours
Cons: A bit packed, tables close to one another

Cosy and elegant - Edit
Fresh and savoury food. I got the mapo tofu with boiled rice. The tofu was silky and the sauce slightly spicy. The vegetables were crispy. They have gluten free options and desserts. The price is correct.

Kind and amazing 😍 - Edit
The ambience is so special, something between high class restaurant and botanical garden and jazz bar. My laksa was on point, spicy and hot, so I could enjoy it mindfully 😊
Read moreYou get free water (every restaurant should do this) and the waiters ask about allergies, how incredible is that (also this should do every restaurant).
Thanks 🙏

Great to have a new Malay and Singaporean inspired restaurant in Edinburgh.
Read moreWe had special fried tofu, fried rice, Singapore noodles and lion mane mushrooms. Everything was tip top and pretty well priced for Edinburgh lots of flavours and I am looking forward to going back.
Dropped in for a laksa and pineapple rice. Really enjoyed
Good option. No longer new but still a great shout in Edinburgh.

Water is being refilled very often, portions not too big and good to share!

Soul Searching 🤔 - Edit
A much anticipated visit to Soul Vegan, turned out to very underwhelming and left us bitterly disappointed.
Read moreCan't fault the house red wine, katsu curry with king oyster mushroom and the sweetcorn fritters, which were delicious, but the salt and pepper lotus roots were lacking seasoning and the Rendang lion's mane mushroom was so dry and inedible. I'm still baffled by that rendang a week later after visiting 🤔.
Our visit was also not helped by having to stand outside for a good 5-10 minutes with our 6 year old son in the freezing cold Edinburgh weather, whilst they prepared our table.
Would I return again? Possibly? Was it an off day? Maybe? One thing is for certain, don't order the Rendang!
