After having beaten for the quote and the various options, we had the pleasure to discover the day I a pretty buffet installed to us very pro. Unfortunately, the entrances were frades and dry, or little worked (such as spring rolls composed of isolated vegetable lamelles), the main dish was disappointing (tofu marinated in the skewer without flavor, curry of the vegetables acquired and shocked by coconut milk), only that we are looking to favor vegetarian/vegan restaurants, we can go back to the place, but we will not entrust our neighbors.

The chocolate pear tart I had was delicious and I can't wait to return to try the others. (It would be helpful to label these in the display cabinet . I had a stew which would be good for meat-eaters as the texture and colour was very similar to meat. My only problem with the main course was that the plates weren't heated so it got cold very quickly and the optional slice of bread was very dry. The main course and the dessert together came to €15, a little bit expensive for students, so I can't come here too often. This restaurant has a very casual atmosphere and the service is very fast as it is like a canteen, with the food served in front of you. The staff were also very friendly but I think the atmosphere and ambience/ lighting could be made a lot cosier; I felt a bit like I was in a primary school canteen! Another thing I would recommend that the company do is provide hair-nets for the chefs; all the kitchen staff who I saw passing through were only wearing head-scarves which is very off-putting in terms of hygiene (the last restaurant I went to where the chefs wore head-scarves but no hair-nets, I found a hair in my food! . Overall, I really admire what this restaurant is doing in terms of providing delicious/ fast vegan food.

The food was super yummy, the soup was amazing, the homemade hot sauce was perfect, and for dessert I had cheesecake! Almost everything was gluten free which is perfect because I'm allergic. I highly recommend Soline.
