The food is great, the service is fast and friendly. But there’s hardly anyone ever here. How do they make money?I would love for them to have more customers (and make more money). It might also help drop the prices. I know I know I know. Inflation’s a bear. But $32 for chicken nachos and a smoothie? I must’ve blacked out for three years.Anyhow, the kale chicken nachos have been my favorite with Cafe del Soul for over ten years.

A really good place for vegan and vegetarian food. We ordered the quinoa cilantro salad and quinoa chipotle salad, which were flavourful and ample for a fulfilling lunch!

Unfriendly staff, which makes the atmosphere unpleasant. The cipotle wrap is very spicy because it has so much sauce on it.

Stopped in for lunch, ordered tacos and Queso. The place was cute, the waitresses were friendly, but the food was just okay. It seemed like they had just opened and we’re still figuring things out, though. I’d be interested to stop in again when things are more settled!

Overpriced food with little to no flavor. Ambience is nice but that doesn’t make up for the exorbitant prices. I ordered a quesadilla with chicken and a drip coffee ~$20. Quesadilla was basic, lukewarm at best.

Very cute and small cafe with amazingly tasty wraps. I also enjoyed the ginger limeade 👍. Loved the mindful living book for sale at the shop.I specially appreciate the on site read now copy of the book.

I do not have one positive thing too say about this dump and slop I would not even feed a pig.... Except that somehow they tricked people in believing their food actually tastes like anything besides what goes down the garbage disposal. So, whatever you are using to put a spell on your customers I would love to buy that ingredient. Thanks.

LOVE the food, left a star off only because they are quite pricey. Although their food is organic, thats what led me here.And one of their juices had overwhelming amount of lime

The smoothies were good. Some things were a bit expensive for what you got-- the soup for instance-- a tiny take away cup. Shouldve gone with a wrap as those looked more satisfying. Would have liked to see more vegan options.

The food is tasty and fresh but even with the extra, you only a small portion of chicken and so a $17 salad is not a meal. Ah, gotta love Marin (and Florida?). I really dont care if the salad costs $20, if its satisfying, if only there was some way to document portion size, like maybe pictures on the menu.

I went at 6 pm. I felt hurried the entire time by the cashier. The restaurant is untidy. The food is pricey and not worth the money. The freshly made juice I was looking forward to was not available. They need to hire more personnel.

The food is still very good but prices are just too high.Used to eat at their Mill Valley location.Chicken or tofu used to be included.You pay more now with smaller portions. Thats understandable due to cost. But keep the protein if price goes up 50% and the portion size is cut in half.Also adding spinach and almonds was $1.50, now $3. Less of it used to because portions are smaller.Can only eat here a couple be times a year now

Great vegan food, unique preparations. Delicious, fresh beverages. A little pricey but good food.

Weird location and mediocre food. I was so excited to try this place but it’s not nice or cute inside at all. The food is not a great value either. It was a bowl of quinoa with less than 1/8 a cup black beans, some shredded lettuce and sauce for $16?

This is my favorite restaurant in the whole wide world. The chipotle sauce makes me happy that I was born. For just $0.50 extra you can experience this for yourself (thats the cost of going full triple sauce). Salads are great and leave you feeling like a better person. Theres no other restaurant that makes me feel so healthy and so well fed. If youve been eating like a racoon for most of the pandemic and need a one stop shop to remind you that healthy food can taste dang delicious, this is your place.

This place was tasty, but Google has it up as a vegan restaurant. They are not vegan, but do allow you to make some of the items vegan. Very friendly staff. Limited kids options. I really thought San Rafael would have more meatless options, unfortunately this place was it...

Good place for healthy wraps and rice dishes. Would love to see a non-GMO corn chip option.

Thank goodness for this place. Organic, sustainable, delicious and reasonably priced - we dont get a lot of that in Marin. I eat here every week and although its hard to get off my favorite (quinoa wrap with chicken) everything Ive tried is fantastic. Go. Now!

2017-08-30 07:17:10

Food is great. Healthy and flavorful. My go to is the Mediterranean Muse wrap plus chicken. This time, I called ahead and still ended up waiting 20 minutes for my wrap. Mix up. Kind of ruined my experience. Made with love; but pay attention, folks.

I recently moved to Corte Madera and this place has been our go-to for all lunch needs! Everything tastes fresh, delicious and is made with lots of love. Even your meat loving friends will love it as everything is super tasty and hearty. Get the Chipotle Sunrise Wrap with chicken - you wont be disappointed.

This is a great place to pick up salads/wraps before heading out (or coming back from) a hike. They use organic ingredients when possible. My favorite is the Southwestern Salad; my husbands fav is the Curry Dont Stop Wrap, and my son loves the Yummy in My Tummy Burrito. Its nice to have an affordable, delicious option in Marin.

Review №22

2018-11-20 21:20:30

Fresh, clean & delicious. I frequent here almost weekly. I recommend the nachos, curry soul good is my favorite or anything with there one of a kind chipotle sauce. Definitely a staple of Marin right here.

We were in the neighborhood for a bike race and needed to grab something quick to take back to the race. I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was! My curry quinoa quesadilla with tofu was I credible, and my toddler enjoyed her Mini Me Quesadilla. However my Passionate Date smoothie was only okay-- it tasted mostly of bananas and neither my husband or I could taste either flavor in the name. But well definitely return again for the food.

2018-05-10 17:13:20

Oh, how I love this place. All the food is amazing. I made it my personal mission to try every wrap. My favorite is the quinoa chipotle wrap, in case you were wondering. A fresh, guilt free meal for under $15 with an awesome beverage.

Review №25

2019-12-02 20:15:10

The nachos were terrible and way overpriced. Big plate of tortilla chips that were mostly broken so small you need a spoon to eat them topped with cheese so greasy that I was pouring the grease off the plate. For $13 you get about a quarter of a diced avocado, a bit of diced tomato, and a sprinkling of beans on top. No flavor beyond the cheese. Will not be returning.

This place would have gotten 5 stars but they do serve meat so if your a staunch strict vegan/ vegetarian you dont want to eat here. Although they do use to separate cooking utensils and serving devices and such according to the young man at the counter. The owner responded to my Facebook review and I like her I think shes a very good person I think the ideal of this restaurant is very Advanced thinking. I would recommend this place

Had a quesadilla with quinoa, black beans, avocado and feta cheese- I thought I didnt like quinoa-Loved it! Delicious, not cheap but I want to eat a more plant-based diet and this place is in my neighborhood. Ill be back for sure.

I had really high hopes and everything on the menu looks very tasty and healthy but I was very disappointed when I got my food. The food is reminiscent of recommended bell but I wish I had just gone to Taco Bell instead.

All I wanted was a quick cup of coffee... I didn’t find it at this “cafe”.They had a few premade drinks sitting in a fridge, and it seems like they were store bought. They only have almond milk to add in. Strictly a vegan wrap store it seems to me.

Review №30

2020-01-29 17:47:18

Whole nutritional foods that also taste good. I love the greek wrap type of thing and the juices taste amazing, basically same price as an odwalla. Supporting local business like this is so important.

If only I had the words to write a review as glowing as I feel after eating Cafe Del Soul. CDS, as it’s know in my family, is a staple, as essential to the spiritual practice of living in Marin county as a Range Rover and a poodle. Truly, there are few places I would rather eat than here. Only complaint: why didn’t they name it “Cafe del Sol”? Who wouldn’t want to eat at the cafe of the SUN!Pro tip: Ask for extra sauce inside — the chipotle sauce is the best thing since Obamacare.

Review №32

2016-08-26 22:49:46

I liked that this restaurant is very natural and health minded. The almond latte I drank was very good (which would make this a 5 star) but I felt the price was too high for the size of the latte. Servers were also very nice and helpful.

Review №33

2018-05-21 03:11:08

We each ordered the Curry Don’t Stop with extra chicken.The chicken wasn’t cooked with the curry and tasted bland and boiled; also, there was not curry in the wrap which is misleading for a curry dish.Two stars for courteous service and the delivery was on time.

Nachos were just chips and cheese with a few beans sprinkled around. And by sprinkled I mean like 12 beans.
