50 Best Soup near Hawaiian Gardens

“we came in here to try the pho while passing through alpaugh and honestly it was really good. the broth is super flavorful i think they simmer it forever or something considering how deep it tastes. i had no idea you could even get good vietnamese food in such a small town like this but heres the definite prof. the service was also super friendly even though i kept changing my order at the last second. I told my wife we're definately taking that extra order to go because i couldnt get enough of the meat portions“

“Pho here is great with good beef selection. Little more pricy vit you'll get good cut of beef. Specially rare. Only down side is when order to g, they are skimpy on the meet side even though I ordered size large . And it did comes with any dip sauce.“

“We’ve been here four times now, which is probably the best compliment I can give. When Mo Ran Gak is at its best, it’s one of my favorite Korean restaurants in Southern California. When it’s off, the inconsistency keeps it from being a five star experience.

The first visit was outstanding. The galbi was perfectly seasoned, not overly sweet, not overly salty, with great caramelization and tenderness. The naengmyeon was exactly what you hope for. Icy cold with crunchy ice still floating in the broth, crisp vegetables and incredibly refreshing.

The second visit was a completely different experience. The galbi was noticeably drier and under seasoned and the naengmyeon arrived only slightly cold. The ice had already melted, which takes away one of the best parts of great naengmyeon. The slices of beef that come with the noodles have also been consistently dry. That may be traditional, but it’s never been the highlight of the dish.

The service is probably the weakest part of the restaurant. Nobody has ever been outright rude, but it’s difficult to get someone’s attention and the staff generally feels indifferent. You can tell they’re busy, but hospitality often feels like an afterthought. I’d probably rate the service around a 3 out of 5.

The restaurant itself is older but clean, with a comfortable atmosphere and moderate noise. Parking can be frustrating and there’s usually a wait, but that’s expected for a popular spot.

One thing I really enjoy is the complimentary crispy pancake they bring out. Honestly, I’d happily eat an entire plate of it. The banchan are solid overall, though fairly average.

Despite the inconsistency, I still think this is some of the best naengmyeon and especially bibim naengmyeon you’ll find in the Los Angeles area. That’s why we keep coming back. I just hope they can deliver the same level of quality every visit because when they do, it’s genuinely excellent.“

““Excellent Turkish restaurant with authentic flavors and a welcoming atmosphere. The kebabs were perfectly cooked, the bread was fresh, and the mezze selection was delicious. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. Portions were generous and reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for great Turkish cuisine. Looking forward to coming back!”“

“number one place to eat.“

“Great all around food choices with excellent quality! All the staff are personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. Great service with great prices!! Love Appu’s“

“I was here on a rainy day last week and can say how this lab curated the most nourishing pho broth I’ve ever tasted! Ever in the Huntington Beach area? Give it a try! Lifted my mood and gave my body back some life. The banh mi was also great - fresh crunchy bread with a soft inside filled with freshly cooked yummies! Enjoy 👩🏻‍🍳“

“Decided to pass by tomorrow and see how good the pho is because I know som great pho place is Alhambra. They had different item I wanted to try but my focus was on the pho. I order sat down , 5 mins later the food arrived. A good pho must have a good broth , it was ok ,I give it 3/5 the pho noodles was right on the money , but will say to a bit more noodles lol feel like it had a bit less or maybe I ate it fast and I didn't notice it 😂😂😂 the beef was nice and tender but also feel like it was a bit of beef 😂 who knows 😏 didn't taste that much spices on the broth. Or maybe this is how they make there pho broth. Overall 4/5 because I still enjoyed it ,the Thai tea was good also wasn't that sweet like other place they give you Thai tea and it felt like it was Thai tea leaf not that podwer Thai tea. I recommend you guys to come give it try , we all have different taste , you may like it or not , it all depends on you. I know I'm coming back to try their other items that good my attention 👀“

“After I dined in here I know why they could maintain their good rating. The soup is really good, I can say authentic Vietnamese taste. Big portion, my husband and I couldn’t really finish the small bowl. The staffs are amazing. They’re very attentive and careful. All of them will welcome and goodbye to you. Such a nice place!!!“

“Southern California has a LOT of great Mexican food but this place was next level. The carnitas burrito was had carnitas that was perfectly crispy and the flavor was great. The Birria del Rey plate was flavorful. The service was quick and friendly. The place had a great family vibe. Definitely going to make this a regular stop.“

“So delicious! Many selections for all palettes!“

“Delighted with their service and food. Serving is perfectly good for 2 and with reasonable price.“

“A Korean blood sausage soup spot in Cerritos!

This restaurant serves one of Korea’s most classic comfort foods and hangover meals — soondaegook.

The soup is hearty, rich, and has a slightly thicker, saucy texture. It’s best enjoyed with fresh chives, perilla seed powder, and a bit of the classic salted krill sauce mixed in.

I really enjoyed this hearty bowl of soup and would definitely recommend this spot for a quick and satisfying lunch!“

“el mejor restaurant de comida Koreana.... regresaré!!“

“Great Food and in small restaurant could see large groups we had two tables of 7“

“We ordered ahead when they opened for the day, and when we arrived 15 minutes later we picked up our order. We had two extra large thai curry pizza with chicken and were able to sit down for lunch. It tasted good. There were peppers, chicken, and a lot of cheese on the pizza, with curry on the side as a dip or topping. The curry is slightly spicy, but good. Highly recommend.“

“Food is amazing. Good, filling portion sizes. High quality meat and good spice levels. Atmosphere is chill and employees are helpful and caring. Would always recommend and come again. Delicious, appropriately priced, and suitable for any occasion!“

“My first time and very satisfied. I ordered pork soup with rice and it is soooooo good!“

“Food is delicious and great variety“

“Not only the gomtang (beef bone soup) but all the other dishes here are delicious, too. We ordered the budae-jjigae (army base stew); the portion was generous, and it tasted great.
And the server was so friendly. We had an even better time thanks to the server who took care of us.“

“valuable, set lunch very good. especially Chai Siu Fired rice, homemade Chao Siu is really taste good.“

“Tang was exactly what we were craving after a night out. The portions were generous, and the side dishes complemented the meal well. Since the soups already include rice noodles, I skipped out on the extra rice.

We ordered the soondae guk and the galbi tang. The galbi was rich and flavorful. The highlight of the meal was the soondae (blood sausage). The texture was different, filled with a mixture of pork blood and noodles.

Overall, it was a great dining experience and a perfect choice for a morning comfort meal. Definitely a spot worth returning to.“

“I absolutely love the vegetarian pho here! It’s packed with a wonderful variety of fresh vegetables and mushrooms, making it both flavorful and satisfying. The Pad Thai is also delicious and can be incredible when it’s on point, though I’ve noticed some occasional inconsistencies. That said, the flavors are consistently bold, fresh, and far superior to many other places I’ve tried.

The Pad See Ew was another standout. It’s perfectly cooked, rich in flavor, and absolutely delicious. Overall, I’m a huge fan and a frequent customer. The food keeps me coming back, and I highly recommend giving this place a try!“

“This place has the best Pho and Lousiana Cajun seafood near Knott's Berry Farm.

Its located on Magnolia near La Palma Ave same center as Popeyes.

Its a mom and pop operation and the food seems home cooked.

Atmosphere is quiet and soothing with the sound of birds

The Lousiana seafood can be boiled which is a great healthier option. The fried seafood is savory.

You must try the Rib Cube beef Pho its super beefy.“

“I had lunch yesterday with friends and I ordered the eggplant dish. It was absolutely DELICIOUS and came with a salad and rice. The service was excellent and the prices are quite reasonable. I'm looking forward to a return visit!!“

“Great Vietnamise food. Food it really delicious and the owner is very nice.“

“Finally got our fix of yummy food🤤🤭“

“This has been my go to spot for Pho for over tens years now!

The broth is rich in flavor, not oily and so delicious! Obviously simmered for many hours with care.

Regardless of the bowl you choose, you will be pleasantly surprised with the quantity of meat, the quality, and the service.

All the spring rolls are delicious although my favorite is the sausage.

All in all. This is the place. It is called Pho Tasty for a reason. Try it and see. You will not leave disappointed.“

“The food is alright. The one I had in LA was much better!“

“Legit Chuncheon-style Dakgalbi.

When I go to Korea, I love eating dakgalbi. Specifically, Chuncheon-style, where the meat is cooked in a spicy sauce with vegetables and other items that you can often choose (e.g. rice cakes, ramen, udon noodles, cheese, etc). I've tried to find the best dakgalbi in Seoul, and I feel like I've only scratched the surface.

In the US, I've only had dakgalbi a few times, and before Mhat, I'd been consistently underwhelmed. But Mhat has changed what I think dakgalbi can be in the US. Mhat serves up a version that is excellent, much like the better spots that I've found in Seoul. I didn't get a cheese version, but then again, I'm not really into the Korean trend of putting cheese on everything, so things like dakgalbi and galbi jjim usually go without cheese.

In short, my favorite dakgalbi in the US so far.“

“I am not local to the OC. But this place had been on my Saved place for a while. As I was passing through to another appointment, I was on a time crunch. There was a significant wait, but the folks at the restaurant heard me and tried to make things work. Otherwise I was going to order a take out. So they get a plus for service. The food was good too. I really liked the different noodle options. Though the flavor was not as rich as I had thought they'd be. But it is still pretty ok.“

“I haven’t been to Olive Garden in a long time because my past experiences honestly weren’t the best, but Kevin completely changed that! He was super friendly, attentive, and really helpful when answering my questions about the menu. Everything came out fast, and he made the whole experience feel welcoming and enjoyable. The food was just as good as I remembered too. Huge thanks to Kevin for making it such a great night! Will be coming back for those delicious breadsticks!“

“This place has my favorite chicken dishes. When I’m feeling like I need something with broth, I’m going for the pho ga. When I’m feeling for some rice, I pick the com ga chien ( fried chicken rice). They have many other great dishes as well. If you’re in the area, stop by and dine . You won’t be disappointed.“

“I used to live in Buena Park and came here at least once a month. Way better than bcd imo and the side dishes are what make me come back. I was a little sad that I couldn't pack the side dishes to go, but other than that very good experience. My son and daughter loved the robot waiter. I'll definitely come back when I'm in the area“

“1. The Hu Tieu is delicious and comforting! I love the veggies that came with it!
2. The spot has chill casual vibes! The interior is spacious!
3. The staff were friendly and timely with my order! It was ready in about 10 mins!
Note: There is a fee for credit card charges!

“Fish tacos are AMAZING!
The Lengua was boiled or over cooked for me.
Great food, homie feel inside, service is VERY Good.

Parking: I usually park in the liquor store parking lot

Kid-friendliness: Very clean.
Lots of seating.
Salsa bar.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's a slim doorway but worth the amazing food.“

“Our family loves Kaju food.“

“Absolutely love it here! This place exceeded my expectations. I was greeted with warm hospitality the moment I walked in, and the environment has a cozy, authentic atmosphere! Every dish was packed with unforgettable flavor :) My favorite has to be their jokbal and bossam!

Service was amazing as well. They were very attentive and answered questions about their dishes. You can tell that the food was thoughtfully prepared, and they truly care about the dishes they serve.

If you’re craving some comforting Korean food or want to try something new, this is a definite must-try!“

“Went in today !! Gotta say the food was great .. had spicy beef soup and my wife had bulgogi and dumplings … was completely satisfied with this place !! Also we were the only 2 customers there .. which was shocking after having tasted the food … very delicious… how is this not a popular place ???“

“A small catering, food to go shop, 3 small tables inside, 3 outside. Their banh canh cua, udon crab noodle, is fantastic in quality and quantity, probably the best in oc, $17 eat in, special $8 only to go on Friday, a great deal.

The crab udon has a lump of minced crab, 3 large shrimps, large slices of boiled pork. The broth is rich, tasty, delish, no fishy odor, no excess sugar, light, nice, clean, not greasy and gooey like those in other shops. I ate it to the last spoon, and I am a picky eater.

If taken home, the udon noodle should be recooked in the broth for about 5 minutes to soften up.

They have a menu of about 30 traditional Viet dishes, hopefully as good and healthy as their crab udon. Will definitely come back and try them out.“

“Today at M’s kitchen, I went with the chef’s suggestion of “cold noodles” (which is the meat sauce noodle with soy bean paste, ask for cold noodles). The pronunciation sounds like Tsa Chang lian mein, and while my mandarin is terrible the food was thankfully not. The cold noodles, cucumbers, and pork sauce hit the spot in this warm California afternoon and i couldn’t be more satisfied with both the taste and my full stomach. 10/10 Would eat again. —Recommendations— For those who want a comforting dinning experience, Treat yourself to these delicious dishes: -general tso’s chicken -spicy diced chicken -green onion pancakes -braised string beans -house special beef -braised shrimp -cold meat sauce noodle with soy bean paste —Finger foods for your office/party— For those looking to feed your office finger foods ask for a party tray (I’d get the last 3 since they are more likely “known” by the people you are feeding): -spicy diced chicken -xiao long bao -pan fried dumplings -spring rolls -green onion pancakes When in doubt, do not be afraid to ask Monica the owner for suggestions. I’ve been coming here for the past 3 years and I have always left satisfied.“

“Hangyang has been one of the must visit places ever since I found it about 15 years ago when I visited Anaheim for blizzcon. The place only serves a limited staple of Korean food but what they serve they do them so well that it's worth going just for that small menu. Over the years they expanded their menu but their staple imo is the galbi tang or beef bone soup. It comes with 2 pieces of large beef bones. The soup is delicious and is paired perfect with the mustard sauce.

There are other delicious offering such as the thistle rice bowl. I'd say because of the limited menu everything is great. The parking lot can be packed especially in the weekend as all the church goes come by. Most of the clienteles are usually middle aged or older so you know they know what authentic Korean food is.

The service is extremely efficient and very friendly. The place is clean just like most Korean restaurants. Nothing to complain about. Order the galbi tang and you'll be coming back.“

“Friendly and hospitable staff, delicious food, fast service.“

“Tôi đã đến ăn 2 lần Ngon“

“There is a sublime, almost religious satisfaction in sitting down in front of a live fire with a plate of raw, heavily marbled beef and a freezing cold beer. It’s an interactive theater of fat, smoke, and instinct. And if you want to experience this ritual at its absolute peak, you don't look for white tablecloths or corporate steakhouse polish. You look for a place that feels a bit tucked away, cozy, and smells instantly like caramelized soy, rendered fat, and sweet wood charcoal the second you open the door.

This is world-class Yakiniku.

You start with the yukke—the raw beef tartare. In lesser hands, raw beef can be a texture game with no payoff. Here? It’s seasoned with precision, rich, clean, and spiked with an egg yolk that ties the whole beautiful mess together. It’s a declaration of intent: we know meat, and we know how to treat it.

Then, the main event. Plates of A5 Wagyu, Kobe outside skirt, and prime beef tongue arrive, sliced with the kind of geometric reverence usually reserved for fine tailoring. The marbling on the Wagyu doesn't even look real; it looks like a geological map of some frozen, beautiful landscape.

You drop a piece onto the grill. It hisses. The fat hits the element, flares up, and perfumes the air. You don't leave it on long—just enough to get a quick sear, a bit of char, while keeping the inside beautifully rare. You dip it in the tare, put it in your mouth, and it simply ceases to exist as a solid. It melts. It’s an absolute explosion of umami that makes you want to close your eyes and laugh out loud at how absurdly good it is.

Even the sides here aren't an afterthought. The kimchi fried rice has that deep, fermented funk and spicy kick that cuts right through the luxurious weight of the beef, waking up your palate just in time for the next round of short rib.

It’s not a cheap night out, and it shouldn't be. This is a celebration of the animal, handled by people who deeply respect the craft, served in an atmosphere that strips away all the pretentious nonsense of high-end dining and leaves you with what matters: incredible food, good company, and the smoke in your hair. It is, quite simply, perfection.“

“one of the best korean food in town
the service was amazing
surrounded by older koreans ppl
we ordered two dishes and both of us are extremely full
their sidedishes were really goood
soup using ginsheng and whole chicken, heart warming
i love their cold noodles and kimchi“

“Always stop by here when I'm down visiting family. Its spacious, the services is always fantastic here. The food is delicious. Sure it's not exaggerating portions like I'm used to but the food ia good none the less. simple, delicious and flavorful.“

“Was working nearby looking for dinner to go. Asked if they can accommodate for gluten free, certain menu items yes(confirmed with an older woman, she was super sweet).Tom Yum Soup, Pad Thai, Pad Woon Sen, and one of the salads. AMAZING! Best Thai I've had in a decade, especially for my allergy. I will be back and will continue to order from here“
