Riding on the wave of plant-based eateries that seem to be taking a major hold of the hospitality industry, Soul Tavern recently debuted in Miami’s cozy Sunset Harbour area, debuting vegan and vegetarian comfort cuisine in a hip, gastropub setting.

The new eatery, founded by Jason Gordon, incorporates inventive bites and libations by Chef Kristof Czartoryski, from hemp crusted edamame cakes and savory eggplant medallions, to an assortment of kombucha-based cocktails. Emerging from a background of more than 20 years in the health and wellness industry and as a Doctor of Chinese Medical Gigong and an Acupuncture Physician, Founder Jason Gordon worked with the chef to bring forth cuisine that incorporates the five elements of the mind, body and spirit. The specially-curated menu allows you to indulge in food that tastes good and is good for you—health and harmony come together in every delicious bite.

Gordon’s background in Chinese medicine also prevails through the restaurant’s unique addition of 37 different types of tea elixirs created with various herbs, which are known in Chinese medicine to induce a certain feeling from the body, bringing out the five elements of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water to maintain balance within the body.

But if you’re craving downright good, comfort food with gourmet ingredients, but still don’t feel like going fully vegan—don’t fret. There’s still something for everybody, and Soul Tavern’s scalding hot, wood-fired oven assures that guests can have their favorite guilty pleasure—pizza. For the vegans, each pie can be substituted with vegan cheese. The Soul Fired Pizzas include one of our favorites—the Fire Pizza—a classically simple, yet delicious pie created with tomato base, roasted red pepper, tomato, brussels leaves, tomato, mozzarella and basil; The Earth Pizza with miso base, mushroom, garbanzo, caramelized onion, mozzarella and lemon basil; The Metal Pizza with pesto base, onion, jalapeno, onion, mozzarella, goat cheese, pine nut and watercress; Water Pizza—yellow beet base, eggplant, red beet, black sesame, mozzarella and arugula; or the Wood Pizza—tomato base, leek, zucchini, olives, mozzarella, feta and mint. To take things up a notch, there’s also the Molten Ricotta Calzone, an incredible creation of ricotta, pecorino romano, truffle oil, pepper, crushed red pepper, oregano, roma tomato, balsamic drizzle.

And of course, we can’t forget desert. The menu features a creative mix of sweet treats that allow you to indulge your sweet tooth without all the guilt. The options include The Impossible Mousse, with chocolate-covered chia and berries; the Fire Roasted Strawberry & Oat Crisp; and the Gluten-Free Vegan Carrot Cake with Cashew “Cream Cheese” Frosting—we promise it’s so good, you’ll forget it’s not the real thing.
