Souls Ground Cafe - Benton Harbor

Pleasant cafe small and personal. Chef Audy is friendly and knows a lot about good food. We both got tacos but with different fillings and sides. Everything tastes wonderful. So happy we found this place. Will be back as often as we can. Best vegan food we’ve had since Bartertown Diner closed in GR HIGHLY RECOMMEND Updated from previous review on 2022-05-09

I ordered the Audy Burger with a side of Potato Salad and a carrot cake. Everything was fantastic. The burger was loaded and the sauces were creamy and delicious. The potato salad was rich and so delicious. The cupcake tasted like one you would buy at a bakery. The chef is very friendly and helpful. 12/10 recommend, and I'll definitely stop here once a week for my lunch break!

I found this cafe via the Happy Cow app. There were zero reviews, but I’m always up for an adventure so I decided to try it anyway. I’m soooooo glad I did. The cafe is small and is situated in a small space in a large building. However, it was very easy to find. I wish I would have asked the lady her name, but she was a sweetheart and helped me decide what to order. I ordered a seasonal smoothie, jackfruit tacos and a vegan brownie. All of it was so great, especially the tacos!!! My kids also loved the brownie. The only con was that there were date seeds in the brownie which i would have removed prior to making.

My partner and I tried the Mexi bowl and a vegan sandwich at this restaurant. We originally ordered the vegan turkey sandwich, but the staff kindly offered a grilled veggie sandwich as a milder alternative for my partner. The food was delicious, flavorful, and satisfying. For the vegan bowl, you can choose between two types of vegetable proteins - Falaco (a falafel-based protein) or Buckwheat Kasha. Both options provide a unique twist on a bowl or taco. I opted for the Kasha and it was delicious, but I plan to come back to try the Falaco. While the restaurant is no longer 100% vegan, they still offer plenty of vegetarian options on the menu. The chef and the menu continue to prioritize vegetables in their dishes.

The menu at this restaurant is based on the fresh ingredients they receive. Each dish is carefully prepared after you order, so there may be a short wait, but it is definitely worth it. We opted for the vegan options, of which there were several to choose from. The presentation of the dishes was as beautiful and artistic as the flavors. We particularly enjoyed the Mexi shell and the Tacos with sides of Plantain, as well as the fried green tomato side. The freshly made juices were also a highlight, with the green juice standing out for its great taste and energy. This is how food should be experienced. This was one of the best meals we have ever had. It is truly underrated so we highly recommend spreading the word.
