The service was great. Super friendly, even when we spilled wine all over the place. The food isn't your traditional Chinese restaurant. The idea is more of Asian tapas. You order a couple of items per person and then you share everything. We ended up ordering literally A PAGE of the menu! We were delighted about the food. Everything was delicious and surprising! Hard to choose which one we liked best. Everyone was super happy, we had a perfect experience and I warmly recommend it. (You might want to check that, but I think they also do take away food.)

The food highlights for me are definitely the vegan duck pancakes (total highlight!) and the Pad Thai. I also tried the red curry salad, which was a really interesting and fresh combination of flavors. If you're into cocktails, the strawberry and elderberry G&T is awesome. They have plenty of vegan options, which is a huge plus, and the service is always warm and super quick. My only minor gripe is that the interior is a bit on the dark side, but it's still a nice vibe for a date or a group dinner. Really glad to have them nearby now. I'll definitely be back!

We had Chicken Noodle, Mango Shrimp Crab, spring rolls, red curry, and pad Thai. The restaurant caters to many eaters, vegan, vegetarian, and meat eaters. They have beer, wine, mixed drinks.

Red Chili is the sister of Hanting, the 1-Michelin star Asian fusion restaurant in Den Haag. Though…read morein case this, it is most likely the ugly stepsister who thinks she can marry a prince. Red Chili does nothing but disappoint with mediocre food, terrible service and ridiculous wait times. My advice is to avoid this place because you will leave with an empty stomach and an even emptier wallet. Food: 1/5 You can order from several set menus or a la carte. We chose the 5 course "surprise" menu, and boy were we surprised... and not in a good way. The amuse and the first few courses were tasty but nothing amazing. However, when we reached our 4th course, the beef was practically raw on all 4 plates. We rarely send food back in the kitchen but this beef was raw and at room temperature. There was no way to chew it, let alone eat it like that. For a restaurant of this standard and price, I should not be getting raw meat. Also, the portions were tiny and I was still hungry. Service: 0/5 Oh so many things wrong with the service, where do I start?!? -Wait time was on average 45 minutes per course, so for a 5 course meal we were there for almost 5 hours. -All the wait staff are either new or college students. There was a lot of inconsistency regarding things like handing out menus, removal/placement of cutlery. In one case, the cutlery for the appetizers were removed for 2 people but remained for the other 2. Then 1 was removed a course later, and finally 3 courses in, the last set of cutlery for the appetizers were removed. -They serve tea in wineglasses. WTF? Atmosphere: 1/5 In terms of decoration, it is quite modern with many Asian elements. I wasn't a huge fan of it and might even be slightly offended, but I suppose if you are not Asian you wouldn't be so confused by all the buddha heads randomly placed in the dining room. One thing I really disliked though was how low the chairs and high the tables were. It was very difficult to eat and my arms could not reach over the table. Perhaps it is designed for the Dutch giants, but with chairs so low their knees would have been super uncomfortable. It wasn't pleasant for me either and I have short legs! Also this same problem repeats again in the women's toilet. The furniture selection must have been done by a child because the proportions make no sense. Value: 0/5 The surprise menu was 35 euros per person, without drinks. Let's say that I wouldn't eat here again even if it was free.

Completely vegetarian Chinese food and it's cheaper than any "regular" Chinese place I've ever…read moreordered food from in the Netherlands. No worrying about whether or not that piece of "ham" was actual ham or tofu. No stress about finding a very meaty chunk of something in my sateh sauce. And no more wondering about mystery ingredients such as trassi or fish sauce possibly being used in my vegetarian dishes. Soy is just completely vegetarian and there's no mucking about, I love it. What could I love even more about vegetarian Chinese food? Well, besides already having a much wider range of dishes to choose from (over a hundred here as opposed to the same four dishes at any other Chinese of which two are noodles) they also add a lot of extra vegetables to their dishes at Soy. Which really helps to stretch an already reasonably priced take-out meal into a cheap dinner, breakfast and lunch because this food really fills you up. And let's be honest, we all know with Chinese food that we overeat, feel completely stuffed and don't understand how we'll ever eat again but then half an hour later suddenly have this massive hunger and wonder whether we've actually ever eaten any food before in our entire lives and then scoff down the leftovers like a rabid coyote. Well, suffice it to say I've never had that vicious overeating cycle with food from Soy. An added bonus: because I can eat everything here, I aim to try at least one new dish every time we come here. This is how I've discovered that I adore Koe-Loe-Yuk, which are little balls of "shredded meat", battered and fried and then served in a delicious sweet and sour sauce. So yummy and I definitely recommend that you try it too! To sum Soy up: -No worrying about meat or seafood showing up in my meal -Cheaper than it's non-vegetarian renditions -Actually a nutritious, delicious, wholesome and filling take out meal -In case you were wondering, yes, they're also vegan friendly And to close it off, my pro-tip: make sure you bring cash! No cards here but at least there's an ATM at about a five minute walk from Soy and it's totally worth the walk!

Yassss! I've been wanting to go here for such a long time! In the vegan community this place is…read morefamous for its delicious Chinese food and I heard so many people raving about this place online and after also hearing from my friend Rebekkah that is was awesome they went even higher on my wannogo list. Still it took me quite a while to go because it is 1. in Utrecht which is not around the corner, and 2. in is also not in the center of Utrecht so when I am there if often go to another place that is more located in the center of town. Last weekend we were actually on our way to another place but the event there got canceled so we decided to finally go to Soy, since we were by car anyway. That was a good choice! Almost all of their food is vegan, except for a few agg dishes. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant itself is quite small and it is mostly meant for take-away. There are stil about 5 tables though, so eating in is also fine. We ate some delicious food like vegan chicken with cashews, veggies and noodles, nasi rice with brown tofu and sauce and fried bananas. Sooo good! I understand now what all the fuss was about :)

I do find it exciting that they are trying innovative flavors, but I also think its important to not overshadow some of the foundations in the process. (Tuna Nigiri: C) - Smells extremely delightful, but unfortunately dullfully lacking saline that could only be partially resolved by soy sauce. (Salmon Nigiri: C) - Fascinating concept with a South Asian influenced flavor profile that seemingly works. I'm not sure what the foam is supposed to be for since its completely disjoint from the salmon, but this dish wouldve worked if it was balanced with saline. (XO Siu Mai: B) - Surprisingly well flavored with a tender meat mixture, topped with some subtle xo to enhance with a noticeable but not overpowering spiciness. (Steamed Scallop: A) - This is the least fusion dish but also unironically the best from what I've sampled. A very classic profile with tender scallops, and an abundance of vermicelli and garlic that is perfectly seasoned with soy and sesame.
