44 Best Soup in Vancouver

“During my visit to Hyderabadi Biryani House with four friends, we had a delightful dining experience that truly showcased the restaurant's expertise in traditional Indian cuisine. The garlic naan was a highlight, with its soft, fluffy texture and rich garlic flavor that perfectly complemented the meal. The veg dum biryani was equally impressive, offering a fragrant mix of spices and perfectly cooked rice that provided a satisfying, hearty dish. The veg curries were another standout, with their rich, aromatic gravies and fresh vegetables that delivered a burst of authentic flavors. The meal was a fantastic experience, with these dishes standing out as the stars of the evening.“

“I absolutely love their fresh sandwiches and soups all made from scratch and the menu is very affordable. My favourite sandwiches are the BBQ Pulled Pork and Pesto Chicken which is bursting with flavour. I love all of their soups although some of the soups are a little too salty for me. They also sell a lot of their soups in pouches that you can take home and warm up yourself which I like.“

“Ramen Kounotori is a good choice for late late sunny afternoons or even early evenings for the following reasons: the high ceilings, the beautiful decor, the mixture of post modern chic tones of concrete, pastel, wood, and blue. It’s a mixture of a warm and cool, postmodern vibe. The ramen is tasty, up until now the first three choices have been savoured with relish and delight. Service is most charming accompanied by smiles, good wishes & pleasant sounding nihon-rhythmic flourishes. At the end of the week, and later in the evenings, the café is well attended. Ramen here can be well appreciated on a cold fall day, but no less during the rest of the year with any weather.“

“Take out 👍 Food is delicious 😊“

“I’ve been eating soup from the Stock Market for many years, and to be honest it’s been an experience marked by inconsistency in service, quality, and sustainability. I couldn’t write a review because one day I was disappointed, and the next I couldn’t have been a happier customer. I feel that now I can finally write a review, because over the last year I’ve had nothing but consistently friendly service, excellent soup, and lately they’ve introduced reusable bowls and spoons, eliminating the single-use containers and plastic spoons that so often meant I’d look for another lunch option.

The effort and expense involved in choosing a sustainable business model can’t be overstated – there’s a lot more labour involved in washing and storing reusable bowls and spoons, and most shops couldn't be bothered. But in choosing to be more sustainable, they’ve become a lunch spot I’ll be choosing much more often.

I’ve noticed a couple unfair comments from other reviewers about the soup being bland – that’s a little petty and unfair. Some may prefer soup that’s exploding with spice of flavour, but consider that not everyone does. Common sense dictates that they provide a modestly spiced soup that more people can enjoy. I certainly enjoy it, and if I want more flavour I’ll go make my own. In fact, both my girlfriend and I find that most soup spots way over-salt their soup, and the fact that Stock Market doesn’t is something we’re both thankful for.

The quality, serving size, fresh ingredients, and delicious focaccia bread for dipping make for a perfect midday meal to fuel your Granville Island wandering. We also bring home their bagged soup as well, and it's just as good as fresh while also being a great item to stock the freezer with for those times you really want an easy and healthy meal. We’ll continue making the Stock Market a regular stop on our weekly GI visits.“

“Outstanding service and delicious pho! As we arrived, our server welcomed us and went through the menu with us to ensure we got something yummy. Highly recommend!“

“Best coffee in Vancouver!!!♥️“

“I was advised to check this small restaurant
First I was shocked by the line up people waiting to have a sandwich
But when I received my sandwich I found out why,
it was amazing, all ingredients were just fine, and very well made
So delicious“

“Love Deja Brew! I eat here at least once a week and we often place large orders for the office. My favourite is the Buddha Bowl, Power cookie and Oatmeal cookie. Mia, Sue and the rest of the Deja Brew team are super friendly and outgoing. I would highly recommend this place to others.“

“porchetta!!!! worth the trip“

“Both my sister and I visited and purchased food several times at the Purple Grain. My Father was at VGH. I'm a vegan and my sister an omnivore. This is some of the healthiest and most delicious food I've had in a while. It was a lovely surprise to find this gem and I would highly recommend it. Also Ami and Francesco are the most wonderful hosts. An awesome place with lovely people. If everyone ate like this, in the long run......I bet you could eventually cut the hospital patient load dramatically.“

“It’s a family owned business. I see their young son helping his parents during his summer break everyday. He was very happy and even though my weight estimate was off, he gave me a hint and let me guess again for a chance to receive it for free. I was still wrong though haha. Very sweet, I will support this business again.“

“Ever since I was a child, I’ve seen this restaurant and always wondered how it was. I would bus to school and stand at the bus stop right infront of the restaurant not knowing the gem that was behind me. Fast forward MANY years later and I finally tried it. And the regret I had of not coming sooner hit me. I feel like I wasted so much time trying other Chinese restaurants. Because this to me is my favourite Chinese restaurant and it’s not even close. I’ve been a regular ever since the day I tried it. I highly reccomend it to anyone. Typically at other restaurants I’m scared to try other items on the menu that I normally don’t get. But here at Wo’s I haven’t had a bad experience with any item on the menu. Everything literally tastes amazing. Wo’s is the restaurant I recommend to everyone when they want Chinese food!“

“Had such a good coffee here! We are going to come back tomorrow for their Udon Soup! Very lovely family who runs it and they offer a variety of different foods like sandwiches and a chicken teriyaki dish! Excited to go back! The area doesn’t have much and this is a haven. They also have coconut water and maté ~ A++++ xo ra & ag“

“We had a wonderful lunch at Hokkaido Ramen Santouka and absolutely loved it! The Shio Ramen was rich, creamy, and incredibly flavorful - comfort in a bowl. The atmosphere is great, and the staff were welcoming and attentive.

Thank you for the amazing food and service - we’ll definitely be back!“

“One of the true local staples, go with my partner nearly on a weekly basis. Why? The price to the quality and service is unmatched. The chefs incredible career reflects in the workmanship of every fish, the egg on the Ebi, just wow, fresh real crab nigiri, who ever attempts this.

The chef is a genius and the food is amazing, sneaky good app, toko wasabi.

Must get real crab nigiri, ebi nigiri and scallop.“

“Great authentic food! Thank you for being in my life!“

“PROS:Have really on tried the spicy beef noodle soup, bbq pork fried rice, duck fried rice, and spicy won tons. They all have been tasty or satisfactory. No complaints in the taste department from me.CONS:I used to eat here twice a week at least when they had the 10% off when ordering online, but since the removal, I have eaten there a few times since last year.The price is similar to restaurant food, so a bit expensive considering it is food court food. Maybe this is due to the addition of the "free" drink. Maybe it is now due to the cost of food.The "free" drink included with some of the items should be removed. One reason is because of the cup fee in Vancouver. The other is that I don't care much for the drinks. Choice would be nice and hopefully will reduce the price of the meal and reduce unnecessary waste.“

“If I could give 10 stars I would, the staff have always been super welcoming and super kind everytime I’m there regardless of how busy it may be. The food is always brought out very fast and is always the same great quality I come for. Me and my girlfriend go a minimum of 1 a week and usually more since we’re always craving fast delicious food.

I’ve never been to another bubble waffle and I will keep it that way, this bubble waffle is the best bubble waffle in all of Vancouver!“

“Came here for the dim sum on a weekday and the place was packed. 3 of us went and we all agreed it was tasty. The serving sizes were 20% larger then most places. Prices are average but because they give you more it is a good value. Service was lacking they didnt have enough staff. We all agreed this place was a 8/10.“

“I used to come to this place all the time, since moving away it’s not as frequent but the amazing quality never changes. Excellent food and friendly service at this little family run restaurant. Get the spring rolls to dip in your soup, it’s the best!!“

“fresh and tasty every time!!! Hmmm...getting hungry now...may need to take a short drive!“

“So delicious. Worth every nickel 😁“

“Food:
Overall, the foods were like having a delicious homecooked Filipino feast with generous portions!

I chose a lunch special; they gave an in-house soup as a complimentary appetizer. It does remind me of having a veggie & Chinese shark fin soup, and it does taste great — it compensates my time of waiting for the main course 🍲

Then the pork adobo w/ lumpiang meal combo arrived. They were so savoury, really flavourful, and all well-cooked! Definitely an excellent value and worth the try 🍛 The portion size was like 2 servings worth, so it may be worth bringing a lunch box if eating alone (they charge $1 / container).

Then I had the buko pandan sherbet for dessert. It had just the right amount of sweetness and a nice coconuty creaminess. It's like a milkshake, but Filipino edition. 🍧 Also, it was a tall cup worth nearly 2 servings!

However, my only slight dislike was some handful of bubble tea pearls having the undercooked, gritty texture on their inner-center. I don't mind since that is a tolerable minor issue.

Service:
I went for a one person dine-in. After going through the menu, I waited for over 10 minutes, while seeing a group of patrons who were after me, already being serviced. Then I put my coat on and was about to leave till a server lady quickly attended me—I finally had my order taken. Moreover, the server staff don't really check up on the patrons, so I'd have to grab their attention if I wanted something. But they were cordial nonetheless, since they did, at least, provide the takeout containers as requested. In conclusion, the service can be frustrating at the start even if it's not too busy—from my own experience.“

“Go there for soups to eat now or frozen for later, then indulge in a soft serve ice cream“

“We have enjoyed Sandy's food for years, For large parties they have been more than helpful. We will continue to eat locally and suggest if you like Chinese food to try Sandy La. Frequent Customers Always. The Wongs“

“Stir Fry Clam Fried Chicken“

“AMAZING food and the staff were SO friendly! If you haven’t been yet I highly recommend 👌🏼“

“i got a tofu bowl, i am not vegan but i can said now this bowl is better than a burger, delicious simply delicious“

“Yummy chicken worth trying“

“An absolute gem of a Hong Kong-style restaurant! They had some of the most iconic HK noodles and non-soup entrées.

I loved that they could let me choose pork intestines or any other meat topping for my noodle soup. I ordered laksa and I found it perfectly hot and spicy and creamy. The hot milk tea was so delicious and more rich than that at other HK places in Vancouver.

Although we were the last ones there with 5 minutes to go until last call, they let us take our time eating until closing time. However, because they had finished cleaning and were chatting while waiting for us to finish, I felt like I should hurry to be respectful of their time. Next time, I would love to come for lunch and spend more time here. I was told their fish soup is amazing, so that’s what I’ll try next time.“

“I had a take away from Tractor today and it was so delicious!! I had the tuna bowl with rice and salad and the flavour combination was excellent! ♥️. Service was very friendly so for sure I will be back! Thanks Tractor....H“

“Awesome food kids loved the Calamari and prawns!!“

“The kimchi and duck tongue in the cold dishes are very delicious. The cold pot crucian carp is mediocre and expensive. The seating arrangement at the table is not very reasonable, and I could hear other tables chatting during the entire meal.“

“This place is a Canadian tradition! Amazing subs. Very nice owner. Always very clean. Subway can't come close to the special sauce. 5/5“

“I come to Vancouver for medical quite often and usually stay just at chateau Granville I’ve never eaten here. The bacon cheeseburger was top notch and fries were amazing too. We’ll be back for sure. 🫶🏼🥳🥳“

“Came here to watch UFC 313. Speakers were very loud, almost too loud to hold conversation at the table. Service was okay.
Most annoying thing was we ordered the 4 cheese melt and menu clearly indicates it comes with tomato soup. Our server never asked about the side and it came with fries.
Took forever for her to come back and she acted surprised when we inquired about the soup. It’s commented etiquette to ask about the side, no? Fries were nothing special so kind of killed the vibe on the food.
Otherwise everything was just okay“

“Visited Vancouver and went to Jang Mo Jip! It's a must go to place to visit for us whenever we go. Their Korean fried chicken wings are fantastic! Also try their galbi (bbq short ribs) and mixed rice dish in a stone pot aka bibimbap! Tried a medley of other things as we went twice. Check them out!“
