Off Walnut Street, Shadyside, Pittsburgh…read more My husband and I arrived around 2:30 in the afternoon and noticed they close at 4. That stood out because everything here is cooked from scratch. We were greeted by a man who handled everything from start to finish. He greeted us, took our order, prepared the food, and served it himself. While we waited, we were brought drinks along with a beautiful fruit dish topped with fresh coconut shavings. It was light, refreshing, and a great start to the meal. We ordered fajitas that were not traditional, along with mushrooms, vegetables, and a side of sweet potatoes. This was our first visit and the impression lasted longer than just the taste of the food. The fact that the menu is vegan infused made the experience even better when choosing this spot. Prices were reasonable for the quality of food served.

While browsing the menu, the woman, who I assume is the owner, brought over a bowl of fruit with granola and coconut shavings. She explained that she does this so people have something to munch on while waiting for the food to be made, as it's made fresh and takes some time to cook. While waiting I also enjoyed some coffee and it was delicious! I'm not usually a fan of drip coffee but this was great coffee and the portion size was nice. The nachos with soyrizo were delicious!! They came with a side of guacamole, sour cream, and salsa. Everything tasted amazing and the chips were homemade which was the cherry on top. I didn't think the nachos would fill me up, but they were so filling. I would love to come back here and try the other items on the menu. The woman and the other 2 men working with her were so friendly. I can't believe this place has only been open for 8 months. I really hope people choose to come here for a lunch/brunch in Shadyside. I also love the mission of this restaurant. The fact that they donate meals to the homeless makes me want to support their business even more!!

I got a warm bowl with brown rice, spinach, cucumber, apple, edamame, citrus chicken thigh, and organic tofu. The portion was solid and filling, especially with the two protein add-ons at extra cost. I also tried the avocado creme sauce, but it was a little spicier than I expected, so I was glad it came on the side. Without it, the bowl tasted a bit plain. I'd still come back and try a different sauce or mix-in combo because it feels like a solid healthy option. Also worth noting: adding a smoothie to a bowl order drops the price to $6 instead of $8, but you have to add it through the bowl order rather than as a separate item. The Tropicolada smoothie was really refreshing and I'd definitely order it again.

The flavors were clean, vibrant, and well-seasoned--exactly what you want when you're choosing to eat better without sacrificing taste. For drinks, I tried the Sunrise smoothie with added blueberries, plus their berry lemonade, and both were refreshing and perfectly blended. I also grabbed chips and matcha to round out the meal, which made this feel like a complete lunch (or shareable spread). What I really love about SoFresh is that it's a healthy, vegetarian-friendly restaurant that still offers protein options like salmon, making it easy for everyone--whether you're plant-based, pescatarian, or just trying to eat cleaner--to find something satisfying. If you're downtown and want food that's fresh, flavorful, and intentional, SoFresh is definitely worth the stop.

We went to the rink in downtown and I was in the mood for a smoothie. I saw across the street that…read morethere was So Fresh so I decided to try it. I stepped inside and it was a cute little quaint place. Not big but a few tables, cute decorations and multiple kiosks. You dont place your order traditionally which was different only because if I had questions then id have to wait for someone to come to the front. Not a big deal to me but elderly people might have issues. I ordered 2 smoothies, a chicken, black bean and cheese quesadilla, and a fruit cup. Ready for the total? $33..... insane. The prices are very steep. If you go in for just a smoothie thats a little more acceptable but to pay $5 for a couple strawberries, half a banana, and half an apple is crazy. The smoothies are also not even that great. I got my son the strawberry banana one and it was so bland. I got the sunrise sunset one and it was somewhat flavorful. I did ask my son if he liked the quesadilla. He said it was good so I have to take his word on it. I dont eat gluten so I didnt try it. I will say after waiting about 30 minutes for our stuff, the guy who worked there was very nice and brought it out to us. Im not sure if thats their policy or it was just kindness but I did appreciate it. All in all its a 4/10 for me. Too expensive for too bland of flavor.

Everything on the menu is connected to mindful eating, loving and appreciating yourself, and improving your health and the way you feel about yourself. That sounds pretty heavy, but I recommend that you try it. It may not change your life, but at least you can appreciate how delicious it is, and how vibrant and healthy you feel after eating it. All the ingredients are fresh and healthy, you couldn't ask for anything more. Bottom line, it tastes fantastic.

I visited them last August while attending the VegFest and like many other places I've enjoyed over…read morethe years that I have yet to review I am just now getting around to leaving them one. So, actually a guy at the information booth was eating something from here and I asked him where he got it from because it looked very good and he recommended them to me. So we headed their way. Tbh: Every place that we wanted to eat at had a line 25-50 deep and we were super hungry and their line was only like 5-7 people deep which was a blessing. First off, the service in general was kind of crappy, but I understand as it was a hot and very busy day and from what they told my gf at the time they were getting low on food as well and only had a couple items that were left from the menu. After deciding what we wanted which was one of three things my gf at the time ordered us the Mac and Cheese and a container of ranch to take home while I looked for a place for us to eat. So after they handed her our food we headed over to an area with tables and chairs to eat the Mac and Cheese. I must say we both thoroughly enjoyed every single bit of it and my gf at the time isn't even vegan. So that says a lot! I highly recommended it :) FYI: The person who took her order also forgot to give her the container of ranch she paid for. I wasn't made aware that she purchased it until afterwards because my gf at the time wanted to surprise me but they didn't give her a receipt so she had no proof. Oh well, you live and learn, sadly! The vibe on this day was on point so we let the little things go in regards to the crappy service and the shorting us of an overpriced container of ranch fall to the wayside and continued on with our wonderful day, smiling and enjoying the amazing festival and area. If I decide to stop by your food trailer again this year at the festival or whenever I am somewhere you are posted up in front of, I hope you make up for your mistakes from last year because that's the right thing to do.

Having heard about this establishment, and not admittedly in a rush because we aren't…read morevegetarians/vegans - we finally got to try the Sunday brunch.....and it was excellent! Probably one of the quirkiest places in South Pittsburgh - fronted by a thrift and curiosity shop - it's rather easy to miss given the off-the-beaten path location. Anyhow, we had an excellent experience. The brunch had several options - we opted for the seitan "pot roast" and the mushroom pasta. Both were great - ample portions and flavorful. The salad buffet was great, offering a bunch of options, all of which were pretty tasty. I didn't try the dessert section, but it was also pretty large. Overall, possibly the fairest deal on a meal you can get in the greater Pittsburgh region, while still keeping things healthy. Tables are arranged where it's communal, so you end up meeting other folks in a close environment. The walls are adorned with all kinds of artwork, there's no shortage of things to look at. Lastly, I saw some people on a certain social media platform had some critiques of the menu development method - it's all a bad opinion, this is a legacy business in our city and deserves even more of the positive attention they currently get.....support this place!

The layout is wonderfully chaotic; half of it is a restaurant and the other half is a packed antique shop and vintage clothing store. You're literally sitting at a mismatched table surrounded by creepy old dolls, retro lamps, and racks of 1970s jackets while you wait for your food, which is just the coolest vibe. The service matches the aesthetic...it's laid-back, totally unpretentious, and run by folks who just let you do your thing. But let's talk about the food, because it's some of the best vegetarian and vegan comfort food you will ever eat, hands down. I always crave their Seitan Reuben (and I'm not even vegan), which is so perfectly savory and messy, and if you go for their famous Sunday brunch, you have to load up on the sesame peanut noodle salad and grab a slice of whatever vegan cake they have out that day. It's affordable, incredibly quirky, and I'll keep coming back forever.
