    Quinoa quesadilla
    Maggie C.

    I came to Cafe del Soul for a lunch pit stop in the middle of a long bike ride. It was the perfect stop: outdoor seating with a light but filling lunch, and not too far off the bike path. I ordered online even though I was right outside since I didn't have a bike lock. My food was ready in about 10 minutes. I got the quinoa quesadilla - and wow, it was massive! I could barely eat 3/4 of it. I was impressed with how flavorful the quinoa itself was. The quinoa was cooked very well - it didn't have any of the bitter taste from not rinsing it thoroughly. The staff was really nice. I didn't want to waste the last piece, but had no way to take the box on my ride, so they gave me some parchment paper to wrap the last piece in. Perfect to slip into my bike jersey pocket! This place will probably be my go to lunch spot whenever I pass through on a bike ride!

    Maybe overpriced for a rice bowl, but man it does hit the spot when you're looking for a healthy lunch! I'd recommend getting double protein since they only give you a tiny scoop of chicken. The flavor is really good and the rice is cooked perfectly! The smoothie was all naturally sweetened with honey and dates as well which was a plus.

    This was a nice place. I mean, a place that sounds like it will touch your soul? All in! Haha, I had myself a quinoa quesadilla. It was good and definitely soul-soothing. It was also fun since I tried to eat it, and the small quinoa grains came pouring out haha. I ended up eating it like a half-quesadilla, half-bowl/plate! I believe they have 2 locations and it was my first time dining in this location. I shall return!

    Clean restaurant.

    Friendly staff, clean restaurant/shop, easy parking, fresh and delicious food. My only complaint is they didn't put the price on their menu, making it very difficult to budget. And the food turned out to be pretty pricey given the regular sized portion. -Quinoa Wrap: Quinoa, spinach, jack cheese, feta cheese, black beans and avocado tossed in chipotle dressing, served in a spinach tortilla. I ordered this and it was delicious. It tasted fresh and clean. I could almost feel it nourishing my body with every bite. I'd get this again. The staff also offered us a hot sauce, and I'm so glad we said yes because their hot sauce was good - smoky, spicy, and slightly sweet. It was perfect with their food. - Chipotle Sunrise: Brown rice, cheddar cheese, tomato, avocado and onion tossed in chipotle dressing, served in a spinach tortilla. I didn't eat this. - Quinoa Quesadilla: A blend of Monterey jack and feta cheeses melted, topped and smooshed with quinoa, spinach, black beans, avocado and tossed in chipotle dressing in a spinach tortilla. I didn't eat this, but I imagine it tastes similar to Quinoa Wrap.

    We stopped in randomly this weekend for a bite to eat after a hike in the Marin Headlands. I ordered a bowl and added chicken. Overall, it was pretty good, and I appreciated the ordering system (though, it automatically left an open tab and closed it before I finished, without giving me the opportunity to leave a tip). I thought the price was a bit outrageous, as my bowl ended up being $19 with the addition of a tiny amount of chicken. Not sure if I would return, but I wouldn't discourage others from coming.

    This is a really cute spot in Mill Valley. The workers were all very nice. There are such a large amount of vegetarian and gluten free options which is great for me and partner because I am a vegetarian and he has celiac. I got the Sunrise Wrap and it was really tasty. The chipotle flavor is really good with a mild spice kick. It was very satiating to eat. The food all feels very clean and healthy which is nice. Most definitely will be back again!

    Wow. Could not have been happier with the food!…read more Will present the food in the order I would recommend: Banana fritters- soft clouds of fried dough, over some rum dark chocolate sauce. Divine! 7/5 Curry cauliflower over a red non spicy sauce. Refreshing! The flavors blended together with the flavorful but not overpowering flavor, with the well balanced sauce underneath. Could not stop eating it. $17 8/5 Mezze plate - the coconut feta was very creamy and good, I really enjoyed the pomegranate arugula salad with pickled onion and with the pieces of falafel inside. The flatbread was a little hard, but good. The eggplant was good and hummus also good. $32 price a little steep for the platter 6/5 Impossible cheeseburger - classic impossible burger. The standout item was the fries, quite good! Crisp outside and soft inside. 5/5 French toast - ok, a little dry, the berry sauce was good but lacking a little dynamic flavor maybe some citrus? 3/5 Cookie with vegan ice cream. Alas, pastries are still difficult to make well vegan 3/5 Service was a little distracted and hard to order. Bussing was very on top of it. I will return for the top items

Everyone ordered different dishes so we could try a lot of things from the menu. 1/5 Athenian Eggplant - Far too sour and the flat bread was SO HARD. Even carb lovers didn't want to finish it. 4/5 Green Falafel - Came warm and the tzatziki sauce was pretty good. 4/5 French fries - Sauces were interesting. 1/5 Mushroom bao - ONE small piece of fried mushroom in each of the two baos that came out. It was stuffed with sour lettuce instead. 2/5 Corn pizza - That coconut mozz was not it for me. 3/5 Chicken sandwich - Solid. Drinks were good! What's up Doc was my fave. Located in the corner of the plaza next to CVS. Good service.

I reached out immediately and said let's meet for lunch at Veggie Today. So glad we did- we both really enjoyed our lunches. We ordered off the lunch menu for $8.95 that includes white or brown rice. My friend had the Mongolian beef and I had the lemongrass beef. We both agreed we would happily go eat here all the time. So glad this restaurant is back on my radar.

The restaurant is super cute and clean and the servers are so kind and welcoming. We got 4 dishes: Plant-Based Drumstick as an appetizer. They were chewy, crispy, well seasoned and the sauce was tangy and sweet. Fried rice. Honestly I'm a huge fan of fried rice and this fried rice might be my new favorite beating out even fried rice that I love that isn't vegetarian. It was chewy, super flavorful, veggies were perfectly cooked. It was just perfect. Caramelized chicken. This dish was good. The imitation chicken was chewy and tender with crisp caramelized edges. The sauce was sweet and it was balanced out by the veggies and spinach served with it. Bamboo soup. It was so delicious and simple but the broth was so umami and savory. The veggies were so fresh and so well prepared. This is definitely a new favorite spot for us. Looking forward to going back.

The paneer butter masala was finger-licking delicious, and the naans were fresh and soft--they didn't even get chewy when cold. The chaats are a delight, especially the onion kachori chaat. The absolute highlight, however, was the dessert that shares the restaurant's name: Jalebi.

There was a different jalebi with a dipping sauce, and I wonder if that would have been better. They were out of it when we went, but I would try it again with that.
