Great food, not so great service.

The food was great, so I wanted to love this place. But the service was so terrible it really ruined the experience. Ordered two starters and only received one. My boyfriend was brought the wrong main, despite our French friend clearly ordering for us, so we spent 20 minutes awkwardly eating our food so it wouldn’t get cold while he waited for his to arrive. We asked for dessert menus and waited ages for them to take our order for that, finally gave up and went to the bar to pay our bill so we could leave. Maybe they were just understaffed this night, I wouldn’t write them off and would try again. But dang, get it together.

A classy Parisian vegan dining experience

It's difficult to find dedicated gourmet vegan restaurants, so it was a pleasure to dine at Soya. The ingredients were fresh, the presentation was amazing and the food was absolutely delicious. The restaurant is a little cramped, but the atmosphere was cosy and sophisticated. The extensive drinks menu and desert options are just the icing on the cake. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Pros: Incredible food, Classic Parisian atmosphere

Cons: Limited space

Try their soyafels!

I went to Soya several times and I love their Soyafels. They are the best Falafels for me.

Pros: tasty food, nice vibe

Cons: don't forget to book your table

Best gastronomic Vegan restaurant in Paris. 100% recommended.

I had the best masala I had in my entire life. They seriously are on an other level. It blew my not-vegan friends mind.

Weekend brunch 32€!

I have been here twice - once dinner (just ok) and another time on week-end brunch.
The brunch is great! Quite busy and a bit hectic, but worth the visit.
Reservation is highly recommended (online) and make sure you are very hungry to try all their delicious food!

Pros: Delicious and generous food

Cons: A bit too clouded

Money well spent if hungry

Visited for the 29€ lunch with friends, and ate A LOT. The food was great, and very well made: tasty but not greasy, so easily digestible.
There is a wide range of choices, both for savory and sweet foods.
The place is quite cute, with a colloquial atmosphere when crowded. Not cozy, but warm.
Service was nice enough, but could be more smiling.

Will visit again :)

Pros: Tasty all you can eat

Cons: A bit pricey

Brunch de qualité! :)

Nous sommes allés chez Soya pour le brunch du samedi, en arrivant à deux personnes à 13:00 sans réservation nous sommes vite placés - mais le restaurant se remplit à la vitesse de l'éclair ! Un plaisir de déguster tous ces mets vegan et d'avoir l'embarras du choix! Mention spéciale au smoothie rose banane fraise aussi beau que bon :)

Pros: nourriture délicieuse, beau local, un choix vegan fabuleux

Cons: staff pas très amical en période de rush, bruyant

Great brunch!

Last week end I went back to Soja after many years and for the first time since they went all vegan.
The brunch is an all you can eat buffet and it was absolutely delicious! My non vegan friend loved it. There were so many choices, we couldn't try everything. Highly recommended.

Pros: Delicious brunch

Best brunch buffet in Paris!

Come here on Sundays and you'll experience an extravagant all you can eat VEGAN buffet! It's totally worth every penny! We love that they converted to 100% vegan buffets! Makes life a lot easier. You've got savory dishes, teas, fresh squeezed juice, unlimited desserts, fresh bread, etc. Just writing this review is making us salivate! Make sure you make a reservation! (They are dog friendly too!)

Pros: 100% vegan brunch/lunch buffet, dog friendly, excellent service

Excellent place for blowout meal

Fantastic food. Very helpful and understanding about soya allergy. Good selection of dishes each with great attention to detail - bursting with flavour with interesting combinations of taste. We had couscous with an incredible piquant sauce, soyafels and houmous. Desserts, which are usually a low point of a vegan meal, were excellent. We had tiramisu ‘cheese’ cake and an apricot crumble.

Pros: Great selection, Amazing taste, Helpful and enthusiastic staff

Cons: Nothing - incredible!

Fantastic weekend brunch and nice atmosphere

Let's start by saying that I'm so glad Soya is now fully vegan (fyi, you might see "cow's milk" in the menu but they actually don't serve it anymore).

The weekend brunch (a buffet, now 29€) is great, a fantastic variety of dishes, cold and warm, and also small desserts and drinks. Reservations are strongly encouraged.

The regular menu, on the other hand, is good and tasty but it didn't impress me.

The atmosphere is pleasant and the service is friendly and welcoming.

The best vegan resto in Paris?

Without a doubt the best vegan brunch we've ever encountered. We found it on our 2nd-last day in Paris but would otherwise have gone daily for lunch or dinner.

The food is filling, generous in portions, and the staff are friendly. They speak English very well and have cool music on. Brunch is a buffet-style, serve yourself until you burst. The desserts are off the hook good.

A MUST for any vegan in Paris.

Pros: Delicious, Good location and Friendly atmosphere, All vegan

Cons: A bit expensive, Somewhat out of the way

My favorite restaurant in Paris

- it's so so good/tasty, I always take the mezze which has several kinds of hummus/guacamole + delicious marinated vegetables + it's so filling
- the brunch on Sundays is not cheap but worth it, there's a big variety of meals and vegetarian treats, all very good and tasty

Pros: diversity, taste/freshness of ingredients, inventive cuisine

Cons: can't see anything wrong with this restaurant

Brunch, oh my, the brunch!

Went for the brunch as part of my culinary solo tour of Paris.
Cooking is my profession, interest and passion, so if I go somewhere with an aim to check out a place, my expectations are hard to meet.
Soya did it perfectly.
I usually hear from others ''No, this cannot be vegan!'' and them I am happy to confirm that it is..well, this time I was the one that said to myself - ''This cannot be vegan!''
The food is made with lots of creativity (flavors/combinations/presentation), care and delivered in a tehnically good manner. Was really uplifting and memorable experience. While I might not go there every week (well, not living in Paris & it's pricey), will pay a visit also when next time in Paris.

Highly recommendable!

Pros: Creative, well delivered dishes, Friendly stuff, Variety

Cons: Price

Very good but too expensive

I have been to soya twice. first time for a Sunday brunch and the second time for a Saturday dinner. regarding food, it is really excellent: tasty, well prepared and nicely presented. price, if you consider: location, paper napkins, no table set, very basic stuff, it is extremely high. brunch is for 27€ and a main course is not less then 18€. service is very kind and people are very nice. that's a real pity that it's too expensive as i'd like to go more often :-(

Pros: very good food, waitress always smiling, eat as you can for the brunch

Cons: too expensive, very basic location

Fantastic Sunday brunch

The Sunday brunch is out of this world. It is served as a buffet with lots of great hot and cold choices for starters, mains and desserts. The dishes are French, Italian, Japanese, Indian, Middle Eastern and more. They are mostly vegan and there are many gluten-free options. For a fixed price of 27€, you get all-you-can-eat and you can keep coming back as much as you want for food, coffee, and several kinds of tea. Considering the quality and the quantity, it is not overpriced.
The style of the restaurant is relaxed and off-beat, with its high ceilings, wooden beams, and long wooden tables. It was once a warehouse and has kept an original style. The staff is particularly cheerful, smiling, and helpful and it is delighted to explain the dishes.
I recommend the brunch for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike. My non-vegetarian friends loved it!

Pros: Wide variety of delicious dishes., Fiendly helpful staff., Pleasant and fun atmosphere.
