Great café with very good selection of italian and Asian food. Only thing that bothered me a little, the smoothie was so freezing cold, that it actually hurt, so it took 45min until it was drinkable (and I like very cold stuff...) and each time it took very long to get the waiters attention. But over all the spaghetti were great and the dessert, too, so I’d definitely go there again!!

Was actually here to have a normal dinner that use to be a cafe and did not expect it changes the concept and also renovated. It's now called Soul, Restaurant and Bar. Use to gather there and hangout for it's good and place since high school. Food had changes and taste way better. Thanks Christopher for letting us in to try out if not we won't know how it is despite the unexpected good change. Follow by Shapina, host and cashier who introduced the menu and what's new and what happen to the old Soul Cafe, really appreciated. Lastly not to forget, our chef who prepared our food, Chef Balbev who cooked for his guest and love seeing him cooked live by the station. Can't imagine how talented and calm and professionally he was while preparing his food. There's no rush in cooking and all came in time even though there's alot of guest. Cheers to you all👍👍👍

There were 9 of us family & kins. We booked for dinner on Sat 8 Jun 24. Ms Yen was very courteous and prompt in taking our booking. We arrived at 6.00pm and was met by Ms Supina who quickly sat us down at a long table. She recommended us the seafood paela and pan-seered cod which we ordered. The cafe manager, Mr Murali came and chatted with us. He revealed that he had worked several years at Spore's Raffles Hotel before returning to Penang. Our dinner quickly arrived and we commenced our meals. The paela is excellent with the the crunchy scarrat !! The cod is fresh and succulent! As all of us are teetotallers, we didn't order any wines which Soul Cafe does offer. Overall, we had an enjoyable dinner in a very comfortable embience. Thank you , Mr Murali, Ms Supina and Ms Yen. (:

Not too bad but of course not the best pasta i have had in my life... just a great place to catch up with friends. Service is great, Food average, dripping cold coffee was great, unique container for certain smoothies, limited dessert (only 3 from the menu) but taste alright. Will I visit again, probably no due to over crowded environment (to small dining area) and extremely hard to find a parking space... just my personal opinion

Excellent 👍🏻 Located on a hidden street but worth the visit. Very well served. Attentive staff and very good food. The dishes were all well served and tasty. Detail for dessert, delicious and very well executed. It is worth it

We were ignored by the staff as the head server was too busy gossiping to her customers, so we left after waiting too long. So we cannot rate either the food nor service LOL wouldn’t go back obviously

Price is too high. The portion of food is small. The place is too small and dark. The taste of food is not bad but the portion is really too small....
