Reviews for Good Life Cafe in Columbia, SC
Beautiful new decor with a subpar service. Wow what?s going on here!? The staff is seriously scattered. We had no idea if we... needed to order at the front or if we were supposed to have a waiter. After waiting for 15mins I had to go grab the front deskperson. Multiple people had the same experience. The good: The sweet potato fries and the Cauliflower bites were good. Nicedecor The bad: The black beans side were not seasoned at all. Not even salt. Just heated canned beans. The Reuben wrap was goodbut not even close to how they made it in the past. The tuna special was sour and could use a splash of maple syrup. But it wasreally the lack of service that was the biggest let down. Note to the owner: please create SOPs for your employees and puttogether a system where your employees can succeed. I can see them trying but the lack of the organization set them up forfailure.

This place was simply amazing! I Google searched vegan brunch and thankfully tried this place. If I lived in Columbia I would go... to this place often. The tofu scramble very tasty. The biscuit and gravy was full of flavor. The potatoes were semi crispy andhad nice seasonings. The eggplant bacon was way better than what I've made at home. Yum yum yum Read more
Amazing experience and spectacular food! I got the eggplant bacon wrap and it was crunchy and tasty. The French fries were... perfectly cooked. The staff were so kind and caring. The sweet potatoes burger was also excellent! Amazing experience overall! Read more
Decent food and great ambience. Their food is saltier and this is the only restaurant where I felt so. Especially their... cauliflower buffalo wings and egg plant bacon were the ones too salty. Like, you can't eat them alone. For a vegan restaurant,they have a well crafted menu which I struggle to find as I am a vegetarian. So, appreciate that. Read more
As a vegan that lives in NYC, I was so excited when a vegan restaurant came to downtown Columbia. I?ve frequented this... establishment many times in my visits. For the longest time they were my go to for takeout, but something has changed over thelast 5 or 6 months. The food quality has gone down hill. Tonight I got the nachos and the beans were barely cooked. They?re socrunchy I couldn?t eat some of them. The guacamole tastes acidic too. Can?t even try to finish it. Going to try to eat themushroom nori that I got for tomorrow?s lunch. Hopefully it?s better. Probably going back to mostly cooking from home when I?min Columbia. So sad. Read more
Great experience! The service was top notch. They have a lot of grab and go items available in the cooler. The girl who took my... order was very knowledgeable and helped me to make my decision. The grits and sausage are vegan and delicious. I crumbled thesausage and put it in my grits and they were perfect. The overnight oats with Chia seeds and blueberries we're just plainoutstanding. Everything is delicious and fresh. You don't have to be vegan or even vegetarian to get full on this deliciousfood. The bread is amazing! Read more
