"Got 2 sides of Mac and cheese both of them together is less than 1 side I would’ve gotten at another restaurant. Been vegan for 5 years I’ve been to over 1000 vegan restaurants. This was the smallest portion of food I ever got. And the bbq jackfruit sandwich was extremely tiny as well. Really wanted to love this place but they need to do better with their portions. The hibiscus drink tasted like water. Every time I get hibiscus drinks they are sweetened with agave but this one tasted like just water and food coloring. Also the empanadas have xanthan gum in it which is a very dangerous ingredient they put it in toothpaste. When swallowed it can cause digestive issues. Be careful ordering empanadas from here"

"Paula makes the most delicious vegan comfort food. I am NOT a vegan, and I still love everything she makes. The Cuban sandwich and Mac and Cheez are my favorites, as well as the Brussels sprouts. Be sure to check out some of the tasty desserts and the purple butterfly tea as well. The restaurant is located in Palmetto in a cute historic building, which is always fun to visit. Whether you're a vegan, vegetarian, or carnivore, I highly recommend visiting Happy Soul!"

"I love this place! It’s always clean. Her deserts are delicious and the food is fantastic. I almost always get the jackfruit bbq sandwich with truffle fries and it is a generous amount of food. Thank you so much for always doing a great job. I’m never disappointed."

"When I went there the owner was dealing with a difficult catering order, I’m assuming, on the phone so I had to wait a few moments before she took my order. She was very patient with whomever it was on the phone because she kept answering the same questions multiple times, bless her heart. Ordering was quick. My food just took forever to come out. She seems to be having some kind of electrical issue and that’s not fair for her. Anywho, I had a burger and sweet potato fries. The fries were cinnamon sugar sweet with almost like a marshmallow sauce which completely threw me off. I was not expecting that. The burger was pink on the inside which also threw me off because it already looked like a traditional burger but for it to mimic a medium rare burger was strange. Both items tasted great though. The burger was gone after the first bite. I don’t want to accuse anyone of anything but I was a bit gassy the next day and that only happens when I eat dairy. I mainly eat raw veggies and all I had was that burger with “cheese”, I’m going to leave that at that. The sweet potatoes seem hand cut so cooking them from raw in an AF, is time consuming and I wish I was given a better time estimate on when my food would have actually been finished."
