The 21 best spots for soup in Sofia

Lovely small place with few kinds of soup, probably changing every day. The service is great and the soup was delicious too… the only thing I was missing is to get the soup warmer than I got it. Worth it for a quick stop especially during the winter time!

Great little soup and salad restaurant. The selection is not massive but it's quite good. While the shop downstairs seems to be limited there is nice seating area upstairs that allows people to enjoy the food in a very relaxed space. The service was very kind and explain to us in English everything that was available on the day.

Supa star Went for a walk to see the Serdika ruins and then took some extra steps to see a little more of the city and ended up on this little soup store. Had a super flavoured chicken soup. Staff is kind and they serve Fritz Kola too. Really enjoyed. If you are searching for a light meal in Sofia this is a lovelly choice.

Awesome soup with freshly baked bread! We had the Moroccon Tomatoes with Chickpeas at 7.90 LEK and bread at 1.70 LEK. Hubby got his beer at 5 LEK. A value for money meal!

If you want to enjoy very tasty soups this is the place. All the soups are very tasty, I highly recommend the Chili Concarne.

Amazing and beyond delicious soups! I recommend the Mexican one.

The best soup of my life! 😍 The small restaurant has 5-6 kind of warm soups, if you wish there is also veggie option. I personally appreciated the Vietnamese vegetable soup, and it was amazing. The soups prices range between 6-7 lev (approx 3€), you can either take away or eat inside at the upper floor (warm and cozy atmosphere). There are also salads, sandwiches and some drinks. Payments accepted in cash or cards. Free croutons topping!

Nice place also for fast and great breakfast! We enjoyed very good breakfast there. We had some traditional Serbian breads, milk and relatively fine coffee. Service was nice and friendly. There is very fine outdoor terrace directly in front of the restaurant. You are seated in the middle of nice public space with full of life.

Their “O-cookies” make a bold first impression—part tease, part temptation. But the real magic is in the vegetarian creations that follow, each one full of flavor, flair, and a touch of mischief. The ginger-lemon smoothie? A zesty little spark that wakes up every sense in the best possible way.

We had a great lunch, the staff is really friendly and helpful. The food is delicious, we had the soup of the day and the potato stew and both tasted amazing. The coffee is also really nice. The pumpkin pastry is worth getting too! Would definitely recommend! All the cookies and loads of pastries were vegan, and so were loads of items on the menu.

Nice eatery with outdoor seating. Very friendly staff who provide great advise on how much to order. I enjoyed everything and would gladly return.

Great food and lovely host! It started off a bit weird, but maybe that's because we didn't speak Bulgarian and the host didn't know what to expect. It also took a while before everyone from the group arrived and we entered close to closing hours ;) Everything on the menu looked very good and the waiter passed by to tell us which dishes of the day were already finished. One dish had one portion and was served immediately, but it was cold. At first it was a problem to heat it up, but he understood it was too cold to enjoy. Then it came back warm with the other dishes. The eggplant with mozzarella in tomato sauce was delicious. It was sweet and hearty and just the right portion. The host was very kind when he sensed that we enjoyed his food and turned humble. All in all it was a great experience in a country that focusses on meat!

Food is good, but portions are a bit small for the price and the service is slow. We waited for ten minutes after sitting down, and when no one showed up to take our order, we had to go inside to summon them out. At the end, while paying at the register (as you have to go inside for card payments), the cashier still had to explicitly ask for a tip for the waiters and staff. Tips have to be earned and not automatically given. Asking for them is poor customer service.

I really, really hate leaving a bad review for this place. I even held off a bit on writing this, and am only doing so because I passed on going to this place for supper tonight after my last experience. My review isn't about the food-- that's usually great. It's about the service, and one waitress in particular, the one with the dreadlock. I'm not sure what her deal is, but everytime I have had her as our waitress she has been nothing short of insufferable. I am not a complainer or anything like that, either. But last time I was there she rolled her eyes at me (pretty sure for something simple, like wanting a to-go box). The only reason I didn't say anything is because I had my mom with me and it was supposed to be a nice night. It was so bad and she was so rude that I even had to tell the cashier to make sure my tip went to other staff members. If you value good customer service, make sure this person does not serve you at this restaurant.

✨ The food is not only fresh but also creative and full of exciting flavors. Every dish feels thoughtfully prepared with high-quality ingredients, making for a truly memorable dining experience. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming, always ready to recommend something great from the menu. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, but the real magic happens in the summer when you can sit in their beautiful garden—so cozy and peaceful, it’s the perfect place to unwind. Whether you’re looking for a relaxed meal or a special dining experience, Soul Kitchen never disappoints.🍃

TLDR: Probably one of the best vegetarian / vegan restaurants in Sofia. Will definitely be returning. Lovely garden, even though I am not a fan of the sand, it’s definitely worth the visit. Food: no complaints whatsoever. Service: very friendly.

Such a lovely location, the garden is so tranquil and enjoyable. The food was amazing, very large portions and overall just delicious. We had even a sax player in the garden, ensuring a nice atmosphere. The staff was very accommodating when we showed up without a reservation.

What a gem! The interior design is the first 'wow' when coming in. A beautifully renovated town house, very charming and cozy. Service was from the beginning attentive and gave good recommendations. The food is outstanding in taste and very nice presented, great plating. The Tex Mex was perfectly balanced, my partner had the salad with nut cheese, a great choice as well. Fresh and crunchy bread was served as well. The brownie cake and espresso have been the perfect finish. Highly recommended, we had a wonderful experience. Thank you!

This is one of the few fully plant-based restaurants in Sofia, and it’s really impressing how they don’t use the word ‘vegan’ in the menu at all. They present their food amazingly and you can order one and the same meal every time and get totally different presentation, which is admirable in my opinion. I adore their salads and the root vegetable stew. The main reasons behind my 4-star rating is that the prices are just too high and they have only few options which barely change.

The food is made with love - you can tell by both the presentation and taste! The customer service is amazing - our waiter was very nice and helpul. The restaurant is very cosy with gentle music playing on the stereo. Just the right atmosphere for a long chat with your friends! The only issue are the prices that are a bit high :-(

Undoubtedly, my favourite restaurant to dine in Sofia. A beautiful place both inside and outside, immaculate service, the food quality varies depending on the day, though, but you won't have a bad meal there. Drinks and food are served beautifully.

I took one star off because of the prices. The food I ordered tasted great, but small considering the price. Also I was disappointed not to find sweet potatoe fries on the menu. I was happy to find the gluten free bun as an option. It is a tourist friendly place. The atmosphere is more like a take away or a fast food spot.

Located centerally with a nice vibe. The food was fresh and tasty. Alas, my bun fell apart, but the "meat" was excellent. Fries were not a menu option, so I enjoyed the small portion of potato salad. Pros: Meat of vegan burger, vibe good location Cons: Not especially cheap, no full grain bun, fries or potato wedges.

Awesome fully vegan restaurant ran by a cool guy. Huge menu with lots of gluten-free options. The food is freshly prepared between orders and tastes absolutely amazing, thanks man!

An amazing a tasty vegan portions, we ordered the Mac vegan burger and the green burger with a potatoes salad. Everything was delicious and the staff was very friendly. Recommended for everyone.

Loved this place. Good, fresh food. Friendly staff. Lots of range on the menu from burritos to tacos to burgers to protein shake. Really recommend!

I've been occasionally visiting this place since they opened and I'm always very happy with the food and the service. Currently, the prices are still reasonable, but the atmosphere could be improved a bit, so one feels more welcome to eat on the spot.

An oasis for vegans in Sofia, the food was very tasty and the service is outstanding. I've enjoyed a spicy vegan Burrito.

Very cool and unique place. The way it’s hidden inside a building entrance made me feel like I discovered a secret place. They offer a very wide variety of homemade vegetarian meals for very cheap prices.

How to find the restaurant: Find the location with the sign outside, go under the sign and go through the little corridor. You'll find a metal door where you just need to push and climb the stairs. Upstairs, at the first floor this is the door. There you will find the restaurant where you can eat vegetarian or even vegan ! And on Sunday you have a buffet for 15BGN, so pretty cheap. The food was great and the concept amazing ! I highly recommend it.

I had to edit this review after eating here for the second time. It is a shame I have to remove two stars, because I liked the service and the place itself. On my second visit, I had the buckwheat pancakes - they were quite bad, filled with what felt like cold napa cabbage salad in oil. Not good. The almond coconut curry (you have to order rice separately) was just some cauliflower and zucchini sprinkled with curry and grated coconut. Oh, and there were 4 whole almonds as a garnish. No sauce. Not a curry at all. The rice I ordered as a side was just some cheap watery rice with bad flavour. Nothing was served hot, just lukewarm The raw lemon cake was not good either. It had a pasty texture and the flavour wasn't interesting at all. My original review: I had the Tuesday menu: - sunflower tarator - moussaka - spinach meatballs with salad and sauce - ice-cream. The moussaka and the spinach pâtés would be much better served hot instead of lukewarm. I especially liked the spinach pâtés and the sauce that they came with. The moussaka was a bit bland and dry on top. Because the berries in the ice-cream make it sour, I would either sweeten it a bit more or serve it with a bit of sweet sauce. The food was 4* yet I give the overall experience 5* because the service was friendly, the ambience "real" and the prices reasonable. Everything was super low-carb. I would welcome some calories on the plate, so that after eating a 4-course dinner I don't have to leave the restaurant hungry.

It's a bit hard to find as it's upstairs inside a building and the sign outside isn't that obvious. You order from your table. It appeared to be a one man operation. All the food tasted good and was healthy. The prices are quite reasonable. Credit cards are accepted though I think they would prefer cash. We had a "Multicolor salad" - it's best shared as it's fairly big. Chickpea curry- a bit spicy. Peruvian Trip- quinoa based. The drinks menu is extensive. The decor is fine with many plants decorating the place.

Arrived on Sunday when only option was the buffet, this had approximately 12 vegan option and 1 vegetarian option. This includes curries, pasta, a vegetable soup, Salad and a sweet cake for dessert. Cost was 13BGN per person for the buffet which you can get up multiple times to refill. Drinks are an additional cost, we tried the hemp milk banana shake which was nice and home made lemonade with ginger which was refreshing. Can be a little tricky to find I have attached pictures to guide you if you would like to visit. There's a door on your left as you walk through the small hallway which you go through which leads to a set of stairs which you need to climb and will see the shop door on the left. Would recommend for vegans and vegetarians.

Hidden restaurant behind large metal door and up the stairs. Food was nice. Fully vegetarian with vegan options. Shame we weren't there on a buffet day as the buffet sounds delicious

Adorable restaurant! Should be more visible from the street as it was not obvious how to go in (need to enter the building and there's a black door on the left). This is a hidden gem for veggie/vegan food. Had the Sunday buffet and there was a wide variety of dishes from pastas, different types of rice, beans, lentils, vegetables, various salads, soup and some dessert! Tried everything I could on my plate and you can go for as many rounds as you want. Really lovely owner and staff. Would love to come back and also try the regular menu. Forgot to take a picture of the dessert, it was a squash semolina cake 👌

We wanted to have dinner here and after reading the reviews, we decided to go here (also based on my previous experience with Nepali food from other countries). We came here and we were really satisfied. Great food, great service and great atmosphere. 10 stars out of 5.

What a lovely place to dine in! Unpretentious, cozy, and serving truly delicious food! And a rich variety of it! The staff were very polite and friendly. Serving sizes were adequate and the price-value ratio was more than great. Lots of vegetarian options on the menu! Can’t think of anything I wasn’t happy with, maybe be prepared that your clothes might smell a bit of food, but it’s not a big deal, just air them out after. Will definitely be visiting again!

Loved the places, the atmosphere is calm and relaxing. The staff was very polite and friendly and were able to suggest good dishes. The portions were really good for the price. Overall it was a really good experience and we'll definitely go back again

We visited the restaurant on Saturday night and the area was very quiet. The food was good, especially the Jhol Momo was tasty. We also liked the Katmandu Mutton. Raja-Rani Polau and Nun were average on taste. The main dish comes without rice or bread. You have to order each item separately. Drinks and services could be improved. We had expected more hospitable and friendly services. Menus are little bit expensive compared to the quality, taste, services, and location.

I don’t know why I didn’t know this place,,, it was so good!!!!! Delicious food (a lot of vegetarian options🌱),delicious Nepal beer,cozy atmosphere(feel like local restaurant in Nepal), good service,,, I’m happy to find this restaurant. Definitely recommend 🫶

Great food, super fast service. 5 stars well deserved.

Great food and atmosphere overall. The dishes with potatoes tasted a bit ordinary, but everything else was really enjoyable.

Great place with good food. We had 3 different curry dishes, and all were very tasty. Service was very attentive, and orders arrived fast. The only downside is that the temperature was a bit warm, but at the same time, we ordered the curry to be spicy... Highly recommended 👌

The place shares a building with apartments, which is a bit tricky since the entrance is quite small (watch out, haha), but the dining area inside is spacious enough, with nice ornaments and spotlessly clean. The guy who greeted and served us was so lovely, friendly, and helpful (bring cash, as they only accept cash for payment). I ordered vegetable Pad Thai (17lev, for chicken/beef option around 20++ lev) and beef soup (23lev), the portions were large and satisfying. You can choose your spice level, but even the Thai level (the maximum) wasn’t very spicy if you like spicy. Prices are a bit high—for example, mineral water (I ordered 400 ml(in menu book), but it was actually 350 ml) costs 4 leva. Overall, the Pad Thai tasted good. 👍

Great restaurant, lovely decor, and good service! Very interesting menu, especially for those who like spicy food! They offer 4 different levels of spiciness! I personally ordered the traditional Tom Yum soup, and it was very delicious! The only thing that could be better is the desserts.

The atmosphere was nice and chill. I ordered the beef noodle soup (slice level) — it was alright, though I felt the soup could use a bit more coriander and spring onion for extra flavor. The menu was quite large for a Thai restaurant, and they also had some other Asian dishes adapted to a Thai style, which was interesting. Service was absolutely amazing!

Service and atmosphere were excellent (5 stars). The Tom Yum and coconut soup with noodles and beef were both very good. However, the ribs were extremely dry and overcooked, with some pieces carrying a burnt aftertaste. It might be worth serving them already tossed in sauce to improve both flavor and texture. The papaya salad could also be better balanced – it lacked crunch (only a few peanuts), and the sauce felt thin and watery. The Sauvignon Blanc tasted unusually sweet and left a bitter aftertaste. Finally, I noticed in earlier responses from the owner a mention of having Thai chefs. Just a note: having chefs from Thailand doesn’t automatically mean the dishes will meet authentic standards or consistent quality.

If I could give 10 stars I would! We only had the Khao Soi but it was even better than in Thailand and a great portion size too! Thanks!

My girlfriend craved Thai, sooooo we went on maps and found this place! The food was very tasty, and the staff was super nice and also helpful when we had to leave. The spring-rolls were amazing and the sweet chili was sooo good! Our main course “phanaeng curry” was super nice, could have used a bit more rice, but the taste was definitely there! It’s a shame that you can only pay with cash, when you come as a tourist with card. At first we were concerned about the place, because of how dirty and dark the alley is, and the presentation of the building isn’t that nice either, BUT the inside was absolutely stunning or hyggeligt as we Danes would say! Overall good food and we would definitely recommend it! - 4⭐️

Lovely small family place with homemade vegan foods, all fresh and delicious. The owner is very friendly and kind. We ordered the tasty cappuccino ever with coconut milk, also the famous potatoes salad with smoky tofu and wrap with chickpeas and almond mayo.

We visited Loving Hut and loved it! The food is 100% vegan, incredibly delicious, and full of flavor. The owner, who is also the cook, was so kind and took the time to explain every dish and dessert in detail, making us feel as if we were enjoying a meal at a friend’s house. We highly recommend this place, and if we’re ever back in Sofia, we would visit again. Pd: I highly recommend the pistachio cake.

Delicious Healthy and high quality treats… Vegan options are great Most importantly it was my first interaction with a local Bulgarian person he was sweeter than the desserts! 💯

A very cozy and charming place with great attention to detail. The menu is impressively varied: lots of delicious cakes, excellent vegan burgers, and tasty pizzas and quiches. The food quality is outstanding, and you can tell it’s made with care. The friendly and welcoming owners make the atmosphere even more enjoyable. Definitely a spot worth visiting!

Beautiful friendly couple, wonderful homemade food, so lovely thank you 🫶🏻✨🌱 (had for more food than in the photos!)

Carefully crafted food with so much flavor in every bite. I am so happy to have found such a place. The owner was patient and kind enough to explain the ingredients for everything we asked which was a lot of items. We got a chickpea wrap with homemade mayo, an intensely fresh cheese and basil cake, two kinds of quiches one with smoked tofu and peppers one with spinach. The spinach one for me will leave me dreaming the seasoning was great. We also had cold cucumber soup which was refreshing for the 40 degree day, and two kinds of cake-mango and berry. We were going on a long road trip so we wanted to eat healthy which is difficult to do with gas station options especially being a vegan. My partner who is not yet vegan was also super happy with the food and enjoyed as much as I did. Thanks!

A rare gem in the center of Sofia. If you're vegan or have several intolerances - do not hesitate to visit this place! Even if you're not vegan, you will love the food here. The owners are very friendly and welcoming and create a great, cozy vibe. Had to visit multiple times during the stay in Sofia. The coffee is also amazing!

I recently visited a charming restaurant in the heart of Sofia, and overall, it was a delightful experience. The food was absolutely delicious, however, there was not something that stood out and left me craving more. Moreover, I did find the prices a bit on the higher side, especially given the menu. Still, the portion sizes of the dishes made it somewhat justified. The service, on the other hand, was top-notch. The staff were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect throughout the meal. Their professionalism really enhanced the overall experience. The atmosphere of the restaurant was cozy and inviting, making it a great place to unwind and enjoy a meal. Whether you’re dining with friends or having a romantic evening, the setting makes it feel special. But the real star of the show was the dessert. I had the cottage cheesecake, and honestly, it was the best I’ve ever had. The texture was flawless, rich yet light, and the flavor was perfectly balanced. It was clear that a lot of care and expertise went into making it. I’d return just for that cheesecake alone! In summary, a great spot for a special night out, though expect to pay a little extra for the experience. Highly recommended a dinner there, especially if you are a foreigner!

Nice restaurant in one of the best neighbourhoods in Sofia - Oborishte! The atmosphere was cozy and the service was on point. The food was delicious and I particularly enjoyed the dessert which was fried bananas with some caramel sauce. Overall I had a good time and a nice experience.

Really good restaurant with very professional service and👌high quality food. The #food I could say is gastronomic but not too pretentious. Tasty and homemade. In same time in the menu you could find very interesting choice of 🥗 salads and dishes that you will not easily find in another restaurant in #Sofia as roasted quail. ❤ Highly recommended place to go!

I've been to this restaurant based on a colleague's recommendation. Out of the 10 things they have on the menu, only 2 or 3 were available. Same for beer, only 2 available out of a huge list. Like literally two bottles. Starters were ok and tasted I'd say decent, nothing extraordinary, I ate way better in other places in Sofia. The ribs were one of the worst I've tasted in my entire life, and I eat ribs everywhere I can. Meat was dry, you could barely pull it from the bone. I would definitely not recommend this to anyone, expensive, and for nothing. Maybe it was once great, but not it's a shadow of that past only. The only reason I'm rating the service and atmosphere to a 3 is all the laughs we had every time we were ordering something and the waiter had to tell us they don't have it. Also it was cold inside, we had to wait ALOT for the food, and while I was there I only saw one person from staff, I guess the guy was a jack of all trades. Terrible experience.

Small insude so it easily gets noisy. Outside is okay. The food is good but the prices are excessive. I lowered my evaluation of the service as I noted them to insist on a tip.

I was seared on the street in front. Small table, narrow distance between tables. Food is OK. Nothing special, a bit extravagant combinations, but not bed. Service and food quality can be a bit better. More expensive than average.

The service was amazing, with a great location and a nice atmosphere. The food was not as great as the prices would suggest. Some things from the menu were missing. Either way, I would recommend it for some special occasion but definitely not an everyday restaurant.

I haven’t tasted a better potato cream soup in my life - perfectly seasoned! I loved the option to compose my own salad and the sandwich sincerely exceeded my expectations - soft bread, delicious dressing and quality products overall. The staff were very kind and helpful! They also have a backyard where in the summer I suppose you can chill under the shadow of the surrounding buildings and trees. Prices - fair, location - convenient. I overall recommend this place for breakfast, brunch and why not lunch.

Literally the coziest place right at the city centre. Incredible staff, very kind and always ready to experiment to satisfy every taste. The food is stunning to say at least, absolutely the best burgers in Sofia. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a place to have a lunch with friends or just a chill dinner by yourself. Come try it, i assure you you won’t regret it! P.S really wish i could shoot the whisky sauce burger, but it looked so good i couldn’t wait to try it

Good ambience, good value for money, quite clean, mediocre food. The chicken soup felt very meh, the "flagship" cheeseburger with bacon and whisky sauce felt like a partially improved Big Mac. 4.0 stars is about right

We walked a long way to reach this restaurant at its opening time just to find it closed. ...Since the message on the door confirmed the opening hours during the Summer we waited one more 1/2 hour; to no avail. Not a professional behaviour.

Food was not bad, and the atmosphere was good. However, they lack a full English menu. The English menu they have only contained part of the things they had. For the soups, you had to go to the counter and physically turn the menu board to reveal the English translation.

Solid burgers, solid place. But at the end nothing to rave or tell your grandchildren about. You go there to grab some food in the city, and that is very fine. Try the home made lemonade.

It is ine of my favourite places in Sofia. I have been there many times and nitices some bad things, so I can not give 5 stars +people working there are very friendly, know English +good prices +the tastiest burgers in Sofia +personal is very fast. They don't make you wait for your order +place looks nice and is very comfortable -I wanted to buy something like vegetable cookie (I don't know what is real name of this). The woman working there said that there was not any mashrooms, but actually it was a lot. I don't know what is the point of cheating clients. +-fish soup is my favorite, but I they don't always have it. Fist time I tried it - it was awesome, a lot of sea fish, but next time it was not that good, less fish, nothing special

Veda House is an absolute gem for tea lovers in the heart of Sofia. The moment you walk in, you’re transported into a peaceful sanctuary filled with the calming scent of herbal teas and natural wood interiors. Their tea selection is exceptional – thoughtfully curated, organic, and beautifully presented. I especially loved the Ayurvedic blends and the homemade vegan desserts that perfectly complemented the experience. The staff are knowledgeable and helpful . Whether you’re looking for a quiet spot to work, relax, or meet friends, Veda House strikes the perfect balance between cozy and inspiring. If you just want to by tea for home-like the herbs better make an online order,they are pretty busy.

I visited Veda House with my partner and we had such a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely delicious, full of rich and vibrant flavors. They also offer a huge variety of unique teas, which makes the place extra special. The service was outstanding – Nick, who took care of us, was amazing! He patiently explained each type of tea, what it contains, and how it’s prepared. The atmosphere is calm and serene, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. Highly recommended!

One of the best restaurants in town. An exceptional selection of tea from all around the world with written explanation about every sort. The food is tasty, spices are very well balanced. Ice-cream made from tea is amazing! The atmosphere is great with relaxed music, the place is quiet. In the end it’s like going out from a yoga class with a full stomach ;)

First time come here with all reference and always full place but I am so disappointed. We ordered, Jasmine tea and Oolong Tea. This is not my first time to drink these teas and I just drunk hot water without any taste. I asked them "why it's like this" and their answer , this how should be , it's normal not to smell and strong taste. Are you kidding!! No smell of Jasmine tea ?? I paid 10 leva for just a hot water. Never come here anymore.

My personal favourite place for a great cup of tea. They have a big variety of teas for every single kind of taste! From herbal to fruity or even black! Great food, great people. Has three levels of floors, the second is the best! Go and see yourself, you won't be disappointed. Also they offer tea for home and boxes for it, if you don't have. I won't say no more, the magic happens when you visit the place!

Quiet place, friendly and smiling staff, the atmosphere is really calm and pleasant! This is by far my favorite place in Sofia. The food is delicious! If you want to get out of the busy streets, looking to have an intimate conversation with someone or looking for a place to spend some time in, reading you favorite book with a cup of high quality tea ☕️, looking at the autumn leaves 🍂 or the falling snow ❄️, this is the place for you!

Visited this place last night, all i can say is that’s one of the best service i’ve ever gotten, the waitress treated us so nicely, she was very kind and lovely. The atmosphere was so cozy i will definitely be coming back soon! The tea menu was fascinating, im not a big tea lover but even i couldn’t choose one tea from all the different and interesting options!! Overall, such a cute and unique place, not going to lie i want to gatekeep it 😆

The place is cozy, the food is always tasty, and the portions are generous—definitely worth the price. There’s something for everyone, including options for those who are fasting, vegan, or have gluten or lactose intolerances. I recommend it for a quick bite on the go, for enjoying on a nearby bench, or if you’re lucky enough to grab a table.

Very nice banitsas, pastries, coffee, and choice groceries. Great cosy atmosphere inside, great playlist. Would recommend sitting at the long communal table by the big windows facing the street. Recommended menu: lamb banitsa, cheese and leek banitsa, the apple strudel banitsa is especially amazing, coffee, various baked goods that changes from day to day.

Delicious home made sweets ! Enormous portions. Decent prices. I highly recommend it !

Pretty good place for a bite and drink Deserts are fantastic (tiramisu is one of) Bio food available to take away or to eat in Quirky interior

Also known for one of the best banitsa in Sofia! This is truly a gem for pastries, cakes and bread. A must try.

Decent local bakery with brunch/lunch menu. Big variety of sweet and salty things. Great coffee. It is quite expensive, a piece of banitza is 5+ BGN now. Also, all of the packed food is bio, variety of bio vegetables and fruits. Early in the morning is good for work there. During warm weather only the pigeons are very annoying and arrogant! Usually the staff is awesome but sometimes they are really really slow.

The staff is nice, the food is delicious and has many vegan and vegetarian options, as well as gluten free and sugar free goods. The beverages variety is rich and tasteful. The only downside is that it is a bit pricy but due to the location and organic food, it is reasonable. After all it is a diner-like shop. Would recommend if price isn’t an issue.

The food is tasty and mostly vegan on the day I went there. Its sold by weight and the it came out expensive for what I ordered. I paid close to 30 lev(17USD) for just a plate which is not eben full. But its a good ambience

I went there around 12:00. Since it was early there weren't many varieties. They sell the food by weight. Considering everything is plantbased, I found the prices a bit high. (my plate on the photo costs 12 levas) I tried a few things, didn't like the legumes salad. The offer water for free. I liked the serene ambiance.

Excellent vegan buffet! It's self service style, paid by weight. We filled our plates and paid about 12€ per person. There was a variety of cold and warm dishes, everything delicious. Bread and water for free. The lady was very friendly and spoke English. The ambiance is very peaceful. 100% recommended!

I'm vegan, and this place has been wonderful. Almost all the options are vegan, and the flavor is exquisite. You weigh it, so the price depends on how much you add to the dish. If you're looking for homemade food made with love, this is the place. The atmosphere is calm and cozy! I would come back again and again❤️❤️❤️

There were enough options, they all looked really nice and amongst all I really liked the vegan pizza. Every item had their own flavor. Simple interior and the service is not much needed since it's a buffet, after one is done with their dish they can just place the plate somewhere else. The only downside is the price, can't believe that for the dish I got I payed 22,30 leva. Comparing overall the restaurants with those around, it's quite high.

Prices - 2.25€ for 100g. Water and bread for free. I found around 15 vegan options including salads, potato, humus, bulgur, quinoa. Great stuff, there are many tables. Toilet is available.

Hidden gem I don’t say it this often for a comfort food style restaurant, so this place is really special. The food was absolutely incredible. Loads of different options. Each and every single one of them with their own unique flavour. I could tell from that variable flavour palette that food was handled with love and care. The curry sauce and the seitan are unforgettable. The chef is clearly talented. Go start heaven’s kitchen vegan edition 💜💜

Was excited to order from Ninja Bowl until we received our order... The curry (Chicken Korma) tasted bad. The edamame was rotten... I don't understand how no one from the staff double-checked what they're shipping to customers?!?!?! It's not okay to charge high prices & deliver spoiled food that has mold & can make you sick. We ordered a big salad with salmon (16 BGN) & got the tiniest piece I've seen in a long time.

Nice poke bowls, various sauces and friendly service. Good fast food option. I recommend for take away.

I like their bowls, they’re a healthy version of you want to eat something quick while you’re in the city center. I think they’re reasonably priced and they are rich in protein. I haven’t tried all types but so far they’re alright

The hawaian poke bow with tuna was pretty bad. The tuna was not fresh, but marinated and overly salty. It was never stated like this in the menu. The pineapple was from can, had smell of a fridge and almost started to get spoiled. The avocado was almost missing. Total lack of balance in the flavour. The service was fine and quick. Inside was so hot, luckily I ordered for take away.

This is a great place if you are looking for a Poke bowl for the day. Don’t expect it to be the best one of your life though, the avocado is pre cut (with lemon to stay „fresh“) and the mango wasn‘t ripe. The sushi rice was well seasoned with vinegar and the other toppings were alright. The small portion is good for its price and is a good light and healthy lunch or dinner. The service and atmosphere didn’t really make me feel welcome. Three workers were outside smoking and didn’t even say hello of acknowledge me. The man who served me was somewhat friendly showing me the english menu and recommending a drink.

A bit disappointed of the taste of the ramen. Egg was simple hard boiled one, saltless stock and nothing more than that. If there is next time, it would be for something with rice.

Affordable, healthy and extremely tasty. Wide variety of options and really good portions. If you want a time out from unhealthy street or traditional food, this is the right place to enjoy a meal and relax a bit. We tried chicken curry as well as a salmon bowl with their own lemonade/ice tea and were blown away. Service could be a bit nicer but than again I don't blame anyone slightly annoyed in gastronomy, mostly when two tourists with broken English come in at the end of a long shift.

An awesome place! Amazing food decent prices, extremely delicious food and very good staff and service!

Highly recommended in Sofia. Delicious food. Real Arabic food taste.

Amazing traditional Lebanese food, nice place very good music, good prices.

I've been here in Sofia since 10 days and have tried 7 different restaurants. By far, this one is worst, or maybe least good place here until now. I went to Turkish restaurant which was amazing, so I went there hoping the same. Staff was very nice and friendly. Place was good. Hummus was very nice. But main course, meat, was not cooked to proper. It had smell of meat. And I am awake since 5 AM holding my stomach, and now being bored, writing this review. See, maybe it was just a bad day for me and they usually had good food, but I'm not going there again. You can still try. Hummus is good. Ciao

The food was excellent. The service was exceptionally slow regarding meals, check, takeaway. We are talking 1 hour for a simple dish. Then half an hour for bread. Inappropriate and unacceptable. I hope it's just some bad luck and they are usually well organised and fast.

Looked good from outside and gave a impression that prices where good. Inside and seated reality hit you in the face, wow, this place is expensive. Hooked.. We ordered some food, but couldn't really enjoy it. Most of us ate a quarter of the dish, no point of asking for a doggy bag even if they offered it.

We ordered mixed grill with some extras around 13:00. The service was extremely quick, food was warm and very delicious. Recommend place if you don't speak the native language.

Outstanding deli and bakery options offered here. Quality meets cheeses coffee wines. Plenty of comfortable seating inside.

(speaking from takeout experience) excellent pizzas and charcuterie platters; Wouldn't trust the authenticity of the cannoli and other pastry fillings, but they're probably also great

They get 5 stars for the really delicious food experience :) We got tapas with wine and pizza. So lovely!!! We paid 48 Lev for water, wine, soft drink, pizza and tapas and it was worth every penny :) But the staff could be more welcoming, answer us when we said hello and goodbye and give a smile. The looked liked they were not very happy to be there...

I really liked it, given the value for money, it's better than some bestsellers in the area. It's self served, so on busy days it might be tight, but on my visit it was like a private coffee house. The winter special - Italian hot chocolate, is the best hot chocolate I ever had in a coffee shop. Literally chocolate. I loved it. Coffee is good. Would visit again!

The pizza was not the best I have eaten in in my life. On the other hand, I received a beer as a bonus. Good atmosphere and fast and good service.

This place has just my favorite attributes - small, off the beaten tack, quality ingredients, quality wines and unobtrusive ambience. Looks small as an entrance but opens to the back to reveal a large and cozy rooms. It is self service, in actuality it is a deli/gourmet shop that doubles as a bodega for gettogethers. Plenty of good charcuterie and cheeses to choose from, has mostarda (yes, please!) and small but pleasant wine selection. Wished to have some more wine to choose from, but they fit the purpose as here it would not fit strong wines with character. Baked bread crisps are by weight so get a whole bunch, lots of charcuterie, wine and just relax. And prices are quite reasonable if you know what to get.

I love this place! Delicious food, lovely atmosphere and great wine!!! I recommend it to everyone to visit it! 💯%🔝🤗🤗🤗

They put noodles instead of rice, and employee is arguing with me that I said noodles, not rice. But nevermind, food was good. 22 Lev for this Bowl, veggies with salmon. Wait is 7-8 minutes.

Perfect location on the famous Vitosha Boulevard - main street in Sofia. The best choice is to compose your own set.

We were just looking for something different for dinner tonight and some Asian food fitted the bill. You can either pick a dish that they’ve designed for you or you just pick the ingredients and a sauce - either way it’s cooked for you to order. We had a Thai basil chicken dish and a prawn and salmon stir fry in oyster sauce. You get a buzzer to tell you when it’s ready and have an outdoor seating area on the main shopping blvd. Food was hot and tasty and even though it doesn’t look it there is quite a good portion in those containers. Just what we were looking for

Just awful. Got an upset stomach from the food. Ordered the veggie and chicken with pepper and garlic sauce. It was gross. Sauce was watery and of unrecognisable taste. Some of the veggies tasted funny as if they had mouldy before they were cooked. Would not spend 12€ at this place ever again. Pizza by the slice around the corner was 2.30€ and much much better. Avoid.

The food tastes ok, but menu photos differ significantly from the actual dishes.

Fresh tasty food You have tried you're best to replicate eastern Asian. Cuisine Just portion sizes are about 30% to small I believe you should have a lunch deal to attract more people 20 Lev starter soft drink and a small selection of noodles or rice dishes Must add you need more lime for Thai dishes and sesame oil for Chinese dishes I was surprised at using bamboo shoots in the curry overall was good but to fill 2 hungry men up a bit expensive so this will be a treat not a regular unfortunately

We never cease to come eat at this place whenever we come to Sofia. Everything is beautiful. I ate shrimp/egg noodles and it was perfect 👊🏼

Clean and cozy modern coffee shop that offers quality food and coffee/ tea drinks and heathy choices , vegan and gluten free . The square cake pieces are bit dry maybe because are displayed open for few days. The ciabatta’s are delicious and the cheese cake’s too 😋 The coconut cappuccino is my favourite and rose chai latte. The atmosphere is office like because of the millennials sitting for hours on their laptops and occupying the best sitting places . The staff offers good service and are overall friendly with few exception where the guys never smile . It looks overpriced but for the high quantity and the good portion size is actually reasonable. Note that is very hot inside , they keep the temperature high on purpose because the staff are working with t-shirts . Highly recommended it if you have special dietary requirements 🫶

Very good place for work and dates. Fast wifi and good tables. Very friendly staff

Good food for reasonable prices. There's a wide variety of food and drinks to choose from and everything is very delicious. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is cozy.

This is a 10/10 cafe. The food is really healthy and well-priced, the atmosphere is pleasant and peaceful enough for working, and the staff are very nice and efficient. They were even teaching me Bulgarian words. Quite a variety of food choices too. Definitely coming back if I get the opportunity.

A bit overpriced but with modern interior. Good selection of products and fantastic coffee.

Great place. Open early in the morning. Great coffee and tasty food. The staff is also very nice. We loved the atmosphere.

Nice place to have a coffee, price is fair. I paid 2€ in a coffee (americano), 2€ in a really good pumpkin cake and 2,40€ in a Banitsa, which was also very tasty (although it was the first one I had in Sofia). They have a lot of healthy options of snacks, the price is really fair and they also have free wifi with power outlets in the upstairs tables. The wifi is not so good though, the signal is weak and the internet keeps dropping.

Decent, but nothing special. Right on the main mall of Sofia, Edo has a nice “outdoor” area in the mall which can be closed up with heaters as well so you don’t get cold. Dumplings were cold and a bit undercooked so wasn’t the best start. The sushi was nice and we enjoyed the Bulgarian twist of cream cheese in there. The chicken teriyaki wasn’t really the teriyaki I’m used to. It was fine but not amazing. Expensive by Sofia standards.

Affordable sushi of a dencent standard. I took tempura mix and tuna maki. The portions are quite generous and everything was fresh. The rice was OK, but nit the best I have tried. The menu is quite extensive with various sushi and cooked dishes.

The food is great even though a bit pricey. The staff is very friendly, but some of the servers are very pretencious and it makes you feel unwelcome to the venue.

Very central and easy to get to. Had teppanyaki and sushi. Teppanyaki chef was great and portion sizes were sufficient. Service was friendly but below par - very slow and they forgot half of our order, despite it not being that busy. I was disappointed by the Japanese tea because it was very weak, tasted like just hot water and there was no colour to it. Overall, teppanyaki was a good experience but would probably not visit again.

Really good sushi in central Sofia, other branches of same restaurants (zero) have rather variable quality, but this one is good.

Overrated! Atmosphere is very good but everything else is moderate. I disliked the sushi - avocado was dark, shrimps were falling of the sushi, it wasn't fresh! Noodles salad was tasteless! I won't visit again!

Nice place, enjoyed the food here alot. I ordered the chicken teriyaki which was tasty but a small portion. Dumplings were very tasty and the desert was great. My wife ordered sushi and said it was good. We would go again

Amazing place! The owner is very passionate and works only with high quality products, the deserts are delicious! They are all raw and vegan, but the taste is nothing like the usual vegan deserts you know. The chocolate truffle is as creamy as a normal one, but healthy! Can’t wait to visit their classes!

Absolutely the best raw cakes in Sofia. Everything in the shop is delicious and on top of that healthy. The staff is always friendly, they make all the food themselves with lots of attention to every detail and are constantly introducing new flavors.

The best guilt-free pastry shop in town! Everything is very delicious and healthy! The girls are very kind and helpful! You can also have a cup of coffee or tea there and you can buy some bio products. The place is tiny with a very limited sitting area.

The delicious, healthy and raw desserts best in Sofia! Everything is custom and fresh. Everyday you can eat different healthy cakes from near 100 recipes made with fantasy and of course sweet healthy candies. You don’t need to worry for calories any more this is the place I strongly recommend.

Best cake ever!!! Tasty and healthy! Recommend the Chocolate Sour Cherry. Best birthday surprise and decoration for my Mom's event!!!

The most delicious and tasty cakes 🎂.I’m inlove with this place!Strictly recommend! 🙌🙌🙌

One of my favourite places in Sofia! Cute and cosy raw sweet shop/shop with delicious cakes, biscuits, and all sorts of health natural organic foods and cosmetics!

I recently dined a few times at this buffet restaurant in downtown Sofia, and it was a decent experience! The food was consistently great, with a diverse selection of dishes that catered to various tastes. I highly recommend anything they do with turkey. While the prices are on the higher side and the portions aren't particularly large, the quality and flavor of the food made it worth. The atmosphere was pleasant and the staff were friendly. The place is clean. Overall, a good spot for a satisfying meal in the heart of the city!

I come here everyday during my stay at a hotel nearby. The menu is different everyday, all are delicious, and with good price. Staff are friendly, willing to speaking English to me. Highly recommended!

The personnel were really nice and helped me with the vegan choices as I was in my Christmas fast. I would definitely dine there again if I have the chance

Very clean,modern self serve restaurant with bargain prices,just as good as downtown but without the inflated price.Unfortunately they close early as they focus on lunchtime trade,recommended and had rather good wine in small bottle size,about 6euro with wine!

Great place! Delicious food, different menu everyday and friendly staff. Been having lunch there everyday since I found them. Definitely recommend.

Not much of a selection at 1 PM on a Friday.

Delicious food. The tarator was quite salty today though and not eatable - usually it is very tasty. Please, watch out with the salt.
