One of the Triangle's only Black-owned vegan soul food restaurants, Pure Soul serves creative, plant-based takes on Southern comfort classics including soul egg rolls, jerk 'chicken,' BBQ jackfruit ribs, vegan mac and cheese, fried 'fish,' and collard greens — in a vibrant, Caribbean-tinged atmosphere with a DJ on weekends, proving that plant-based food can be deeply soulful, satisfying, and good enough to convert even the most dedicated carnivores.
