Vegan Options in Genoa

Following on from my post yesterday about the vegan snacks I snagged in Genoa, I wanted to share news of a plant-based restaurant meal I enjoyed last night.

Soul Kitchen is a vegetarian restaurant nestled into a narrow lane way in Genoa, which is not really necessary to mention because everything in Genoa is nestled into a narrow lane way.

The majority of the menu at Soul Kitchen is vegan with some of those options being raw. But what did we eat?

Read more below.



The star dish was the ravioli. The filling was plump and plentiful while creamy sauce was smoky.

10/10 for the flavour and texture of the potato gnocchi. I needed a bit of convincing with the sauce as it was an unusual taste for me. I believe it was black garlic.

Coming in at third place were the bao buns. The seitan inside was enjoyable however the dish wasn’t cohesive. Carrots with bao buns is not something I’d order again.




I was thankful for this meal in a city that is a bit lacking in vegan options.

Soul Kitchen offers a few dessert options which we didn’t sample and there is a full wine menu for the drinkers.
