37 Best Soup near Laguna Hills

“We absolutely love Brodino! The clean, functional ingredients are a huge reason we keep coming back. It’s hard to find products that are both nutritious and genuinely delicious, but Brodino nails it.

The Golden Chicken Curry soup is a 10/10 in our house. Not only do I love it, but it’s also a favorite with my toddler and even my picky eater husband, which says a lot! It’s comforting, flavorful, and made with ingredients I feel good about serving my family.

Highly recommend to anyone looking for wholesome, high-quality soups that actually taste amazing. ❤️🍲“

“After a long day at the office, I decided to try a new place. Craving a little fuss I decided to go to the place down the street and loved every second of it with a few caveats. Today is a holiday so I think it's an outlier, but this place is relatively empty and medium size compared to the other places I've been to around the area. Despite this, they had a very expensive menu, especially with a lot of drinks, which is something I love because I love flavor in my liquids. Ended up getting picture below and a strawberry smoothie and a bowl of rice which honestly wasn't that bad for what I got. The highlights, though would have to definitely be the pho which is perfectly seasoned and portion cause I ordered the small with everything tasting very well and not muddying the rest of the flavors. I also love the noodle portions because it was just right and under, which is what I'm used to to around the area at points. I would say the one low light of my dish, despite portion of eggrolls as the sauce was bland that I thought and the eggrolls almost tasted burnt with the flavors of the meat and vegetables inside not really coming out as much as I would hope. For the value I would definitely say that this place is a really good spot to go and definitely will be coming here more often. I a few things could be better for one thing that I wish was a little cheaper was the rice but then again I'm being a little picky on that since I like eating with my meal so much so your mileage on that may vary. I know this thing I wish was a little different, but definitely have no control over would be the fact that the food came out a little slower than other places. It could just be that they're understaffed, which I understand in this economy so that also may vary based on time of day when I went and the holiday being a significant change, but overall the people were very nice and accommodating they checked on me quite often and I would love to come back here again.“

“The staff was excellent.
The Manager was a Jerk .
We came to get the special but found out it ended a day before.
He the manager acted like he didn't give a crap.
Fire the manager worst
attitude ever.
Great food and service otherwise“

“Haidilao Hot Pot was a very great place for dinner. The service was very quick, employees were patient and respectful. Our server Jacob asked to reopen their kitchen just to make us some dessert even though it was after hours. He also gave us a complimentary food option in case they weren't able to make the dessert for us. The service is unbelievably nice. I would come again for dinner.“

“I am not a vegan but I must say that this restaurant is the best food I have had in a long time. The service was great and the ambience very nice. The food amazing !!!“

“The best pork chop I have ever had! Great atmosphere and kind staffs too I will definitely visit again 👍🏼“

“The best vegan pho I’ve ever had.“

“This Korean BBQ is seriously one of the best I’ve ever tried. The meat quality is amazing—juicy, flavorful, and perfectly marinated. Every bite tastes fresh and smoky in the best way, especially when wrapped with lettuce, garlic, and spicy sauce. The side dishes are also on point, and you can tell everything is made with care. The staff is super friendly and helps cook the meat just right, so you don’t have to worry about anything. The vibe is cozy, lively, and perfect for hanging out with friends. 10/10 would come again!“

“Hidden gem for Thai food. The quiet and nondescript building doesn't bear witness to the quality of food served.
Very genuine food and polite servers who aim to please.
We shared the Pad See-Ew with Pork and Yellow Curry with Chicken and rice. We also ordered the rare Mango Sticky Rice.
This is highly recommended but save room for dessert. The meals are hearty and the mango and sticky rice are plentious.
Service is excellent and helpful.
The atmosphere is very authentic with the ongoing elephant theme throughout.“

“The food is good, with vegetarian options available. The servers are attentive and trying to give the best experience. I took one star off service as the order was wrong for a couple of our items, but they did make the dishes again. Nice setting and if you get there earlier in the evening there is no wait.“

“I had an amazing experience at Olive Garden in Irvine! From the moment we walked in, everything exceeded expectations. The food was absolutely delicious, flavorful, and served hot. Every dish we tried was spot on.
The service was just as impressive. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. You can really tell the team takes pride in what they do.
A special shoutout to General Manager Miguel Jimenez for running such a fantastic restaurant. It’s clear that great leadership makes all the difference. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!“

“I order takeout from Siam Thai Kitchen regularly, and the quality is incredibly consistent. Their Rad-na is a standout—it's hard to find in this area, and they do it perfectly. If you like Pad See Ew but want something richer, the garlic gravy sauce on this is a game-changer.

I’ve also tried the Crying Tiger, Fried Rice, Spicy Broccoli with Crispy Pork, Fish in Black Pepper, and Larb. Every dish tastes authentic and well-balanced. As a Thai person, I’m usually a tough critic when it comes to Thai food, but this spot never misses. Highly recommend to anyone looking for the real deal in Mission Viejo.“

“The freshly boiled bone broth here is legit, like super rich and full of depth. You can tell they don’t cut corners—just feels real. Flavor? Totally authentic, reminds me of Yunnan-style dishes I’ve had before. Prices are solid too, which is great for students like me trying to eat well without spending too much. Portions felt generous, and it’s just overall good value.“

“Food is really good :) is well located and prices are reasonable for the area“

“WOW. Just amazing!! The limited time BBQ pork sandwich is so good! Been coming here for some time and the service has never disappointed. David, Bridget, Rei, and Alondra always remember me and my order. They are constantly recommending great options. You can tell their hospitality is not forced either, even in a rush they carry a smile. Keep up the great work Mendocino Farms!“

“very clean, staff is very nice, 100% recommend ! owner is also extremely kind and friendly :)“

“DELICIOUS !!! food and wonderful people“

“The best service ever. Delicious food. 💯 recommend“

“とても美味しいスープがお手頃なお値段でいただけます。“

“Always our choice for Thai food!“

“Delicious food! I highly recommend the filet mignon over fried rice. Excellent fried rice! Also, I am not usually into chicken nuggets but here they are extremely crunchy, juicy and the taste of the fried batter was addictive. Very casual basic atmosphere but do not be fooled!“

“Came in during a Friday evening and it was pretty empty and I tend not to like that cuz it's kind of awkward when ur alone eating and the server's the only one there (they were nice though), but the food was really good. I got chicken pad see ew. was the perfect ratio of oil/sauce for mouthfeel. Also medium spicy not too spicy. All in all W experience“

“Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about this spot! First of all, their Wagyu Stacker is hands down one of the best dishes I’ve ever had — it’s incredible every single time.

The buffet is always spotless and well-maintained, which I really appreciate. It’s also super family-friendly. I’ve been here with both large groups and smaller parties, and they’re always accommodating and welcoming.

The pricing feels very reasonable for the quality you’re getting. You can truly taste the difference — the meat quality is excellent. They also offer outdoor seating, and dogs are allowed on the patio, which is a huge plus.

It’s consistently delicious every time I visit. I’ll definitely be coming back anytime I’m in Irvine!“

“My friend brought me to this place and I was excited to try. I ordered the tonkatsu and rice cake/dumpling soup. Not gonna lie, my expectations were shattered. I can't go back to my usual spot to enjoy the soup and tonkatsu anymore. Soup was so flavorful and tasty, the dumpling was massive, the tonkatsu is enormous. For the price, it was worth it. Would come back here again.“

“Ordered the beef short rib yuk gae Jang. It was delicious! Beef was super tender and fell off the bone. The only negative is they don't offer a lot of side dishes. Only 3..kimchi, chives and fish cakes. Other than that it was good. I'll be back when I'm on vacation again.“

“Excelente Servicio 100% Recomendados“

“We had a wonderful experience at IT’S TOFU in Irvine. The food was delicious, comforting, and full of flavor—everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. What really made our visit special was our server, Jenny. She was absolutely excellent: attentive, kind, and genuinely caring about our experience. Her service made us feel very welcome and well taken care of. We’ll definitely be coming back, and we hope to have Jenny as our server again. Highly recommended!“

“Excellent Persian food in warm surroundings at reasonable prices. What everybody calls professional staff with great service, is actually the PERSIAN HOSPITALITY which no Persian restaurant would last without it. Even when you are waiting for your takeout order, they offer you complimentary tea while you wait. Persian moms take their cooking seriously and if the food at a Persian restaurant doesn't meet their high standards, they wouldn't load up the whole family to go there for family dinners and catered parties.“

“Very good food with my baby“

“Great ramen rice noodles soup 🍜“

“My experience here was very good. I came in a bit later so there weren’t many people there and the service was fast. The food was so good it flew off the table before I could snap a picture. It a very good restaurant with reasonable prices and tasty food. They have dishes designed for 2, which I find very convenient if you come with your significant other.“

“Yuchun can be found inside the food court at H Mart Irvine WestPark. There are a good number of Korean food options within the food hall, but we decided on Yuchun and it was the right choice. I went with the Yuchun Signature Set which included a variety of banchan, rice, soup and bulgogi for $25.99. I paid an upcharge to substitute kalbi as my choice of protein and it did not disappoint. Simply order at the kiosk and they’ll call your number when your order is ready, but be forewarned that the tray can be on the heavier side when you pickup. The Signature Set is not the most affordable menu option, but it provides a balanced meal of Korean dishes and the portion size is hearty enough for leftovers. I’ll def be back!“

“One of my favorite places when I’m craving noodles or soup. Good food with big portions at a great price. I ate here last year and the service wasn’t very good and the place felt smaller, but when I visited this week, they’ve improved a lot. The two ladies serving were very friendly and attentive. The customer service was so much better this time, and I’ll definitely be back. I recommend ordering the wontons in chili sauce, braised pork with sticky brown sauce, and braised beef noodles everything was delicious. Totally worth it!“

“Chicken pot thing was weird. Noodles were bomb!!!!!!“

“I have the broccoli cheese soup for the first time. It was delicious. 😋“

“Actually came in here because the other restaurant I was planning to go had a long wait. This restaurant didn’t look busy at prime dinner time so I was a little reluctant but I only had 1 hour to eat before my next stop. Service was quick and food came out fast. Soft soon tofu soup included everything just like BCD but more variety of banchan. They were very generous with refilling the side dishes too. As I was eating, I noticed they had nonstop takeout orders getting picked up. I got the bulgogi/soon tofu combo. The bulgogi was good and tasted authentic but I think the only miss was the soon tofu soup lacked a bit of umami flavor.“

“This establishment is known for it's excellent Asian cuisine, but horrible customer service. Some of us have chosen to endure it since the loss of Sam Woo. However, I think I've found the key to being treated, at least, decently. I took it upon myself to engage the aloof, borderline rude server. I asked his name, was very pleasant with him and asked his opinion regarding a couple of dishes, even though I was quite familiar with them. He offered advice. We engaged in a conversation. Then I said the magic words, "You know you have the BEST Chinese food in Irvine, right?" It was smooth sailing from there. While being ultra friendly is not a part of their server DNA, stroking the product ego didn't hurt. The best meal I've had there in 3 years.“
