46 Best Soup near Newark

“It’s like the most legit Chinese food cooked in the area. I could tell the chef was properly trained and brought the flavors from sichuan. Love the rice noodles, and all the side dishes are decent. This is like ten times fancier than the rice noodles from hunan mifen in Newark. They also have amazing beef rolls, sesame balls and the seaweed salad was really good too. The new mixed cold rice noodle with string beans is super good. (Apologies I didn’t take very good photos the food was like half eaten. It looked better when it was served)“

“Decent beef noodle soup at this Chinese restaurant, specializing in northwestern Chinese cuisine. Surprisingly large menu. Flavorful soup, good noodle texture, and tender meat. However, the stir-fried veggies were a bit under seasoned. Efficient service. Large free parking lot.“

“Awesome sandwiches and very friendly service ! The ruben was delish and the broccoli cheddar soup good also ! Will definitely go back again ! I forgot my pickle though, darn ! Was chatting so much with the friendly lady up front, I totally forgot to make sure they gave it to me ! Oh well, next time ! I'm hoping business is good for them and they can stay for a long time !“

“Legend Hot Pot & Grill honestly surprised me for the price, you get hotpot and BBQ in one spot, and everything tasted way fresher than most AYCE places. The broth was flavorful, the meats were tender and well-marinated, and the conveyor belt made grabbing veggies and noodles super easy. The sauce bar was fully stocked with everything you’d want, the vibe inside was warm and clean, and the staff kept refilling things without us even asking. Overall, it’s a perfect cold-weather spot with great value, tons of variety, and a way better experience than I expected. I’d definitely come back.“

“The pho here was delicious bone broth was very flavorful, with a generous amount of meat, and noodles. The staff was beyond friendly and helpful, even made my kiddo a special pho plate free of charge. Highly recommend people to try this place out. We will be returning again when we're around the area.“

“The picture says it all. 😋“

“Pho Lan, a true family-run establishment in Fremont, delivers exactly what matters most in Vietnamese cuisine: spectacular, authentic flavor and generous value. While this isn't the spot for a luxurious, white-tablecloth experience, it is hands down the best place to find truly delicious pho and rice dishes in the area.

The primary reason to visit Pho Lan is the food, and they execute it flawlessly. The flavors here are deeply authentic, showcasing the care and tradition that only a family business dedicated to its craft can provide.

The Pho: The star of the show is, naturally, the pho. The broth is rich, complex, and clean—the hallmark of high-quality pho. It’s clear that the broth simmers for hours, resulting in a depth of flavor that many chain restaurants simply cannot replicate. Whether you choose a classic rare steak or brisket combination, the meat is fresh, and the portion size is substantial.

Beyond the Broth: While the pho is a must-try, the kitchen excels across the board. The rice dishes are equally noteworthy, featuring perfectly cooked meats and well-balanced marinades. If you're looking for Vietnamese food that tastes just like the dishes prepared in a traditional home, Pho Lan delivers.

Pho Lan offers excellent value. The portions are notably generous, ensuring you leave completely satisfied. In an age where many restaurants are shrinking servings, Pho Lan maintains a commitment to great portion size, making it a fantastic choice for lunch or dinner without breaking the bank.

It is important to manage expectations regarding the dining environment and service. As a dedicated, family-run operation, the entire focus is on efficiency and getting excellent food to your table quickly.

Ambiance & Service: This is not a restaurant built on trendy decor or overly solicitous service. The atmosphere is simple, casual, and functional. Service is efficient and straightforward, reflecting the priority of the kitchen over the front of house flair. If the quality of the food is your main metric, you will be thrilled. If you expect a high-end, polished dining experience, you might need to adjust your expectations. Pho Lan is an honest, no-frills location dedicated to its culinary mission.

Pho Lan is a Fremont treasure. It’s the kind of local spot that deserves strong community support because they consistently nail the most important element: the food.

For authentic flavors, generous portions, and truly delicious Vietnamese cuisine—from the masterful pho broth to the flavorful rice plates—Pho Lan is highly recommended. Come support this dedicated family business and enjoy some of the best Vietnamese food Fremont has to offer.

This was long due- will post pictures next time I visit them.“

“Zhangfei Hotpot in Fremont is an absolute gem! I've been searching for authentic, flavorful hotpot in the Bay Area, and this place truly delivers.
We opted for their classic Spicy Mala broth, and it was incredibly aromatic and delicious – perfectly balanced with numbing peppercorns and a rich, spicy kick. It genuinely transported me back to the hotpot experiences I've had in China! The selection of ingredients is fantastic; everything from the tripe and duck intestine to the fresh vegetables was high quality and cooked beautifully in the broth.
The sauce bar is incredibly well-stocked, offering a huge variety of condiments to customize your perfect dipping sauce. You can go classic with sesame oil and garlic, or get creative with their extensive options.
The ambiance is also lovely – a clean and comfortable space with a nice blend of traditional and modern decor, making it great for a casual meal or a gathering with friends.
Value for money is excellent too. Considering the quality of the food and the service, I felt it was very reasonably priced.
Overall, I highly recommend Zhangfei Hotpot to anyone looking for an authentic and delicious hotpot experience in Fremont. You won't be disappointed!

“Handmade noodles and dumpling. Best siu Mai in the south bay. Everything we ate was very tasty. You cant beat the prices. My new favorite dumpling and handmade noodle get away. Check it out. You won't be disappointed. Beef noodle is on point if you cant decide where to start“

“One of the best and most authentic noodle shops in Mountain View! The flavors are very traditional and really remind me of home — every bite brings back memories. What really stands out is how generous they are with the meats, definitely more than most Chinese noodle places I’ve been to. Everything is legit and absolutely delicious. The service is fast, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended if you’re looking for real, comforting Chinese noodles!“

“My boyfriend and I frequent this place regularly and every time we have the food, it’s still amazing! The Seolleongtang broth is always rich and the meat is very tender. We’ve had some other options like the clay pot Bulgogi which is flavorful, and also the Galbijjim (my favorite). The staff is also so friendly and welcoming!“

“There are those rare instances that You feel Thankful about The Dining & The Experience of Dining. B3-Boyz Dhaba takes the prize for that, imho. If you crave Authenticity in Tamil Nadu & Kerala cuisine then You are in that Zone here at this Restaurant. My wife & I came here for lunch on the Happy Occasion of PONGAL. We were warmly greeted by the Hostess Owner & the food was Splendid. The Chef: A Keralite was formerly with Taj Coramandel, Chennai for years & the flavor of the food we savored put that Stamp of Authenticity to the Meal Experience!“

“Nice place good serving staff“

“Update:
Jianbao is still delicious. I’ll probably skip the hot and sour soup next time. It’s tasty but too much for one person. Also, there’s a lot of soup and I don’t think it’s worth the money. OK if you’re sharing.

Tasty and juicy jianbao. Bottom was nice and crispy.“

“Enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant, was provided excellent service and hospitality, and the food was amazing.“

“I have been coming here for almost 14 years. And I would not change this japanese restaurant for another. Ambiance, food price, friendliness the taste of the food is wonderful. Like my mom always says : bueno, bonito y barata. Good, wonderful, comfortable prices. You won’t be disappointed!!“

“AMAZING snacks! There is a free snack bar with all kinds of delicious chinese snacks, the staff were very kind and gave children toys. You can walk in at any given time and they will find you a table immediately. The place is very clean, and my family and I love it so much we go at least 2 times a week. If you’re ever looking for a hot pot place go here!“

“As of mid-october 2025, a 15% service charge is already included in the bill. Customers do not have to pay additional tips unless they are particularly happy with certain servers. The food of this restaurant is mainly Sichuan style (spicy), but there are no less non-spicy option. They are generally good. It is getting pricier and pricier, as are other restaurants.“

“Chi Xiao Guo seems to be gone. Now it’s Liu Yue Teppanyaki Cuisine. They don’t sell hot pot in summer, but the Teppanyaki cuisine is also delicious. It’s very similar to the signature Teppanyaki Noodles at Taiwan’s night markets. Love! Definitely will come again : )“

“Best sandwiches! The garlic sauce makes the sandwich. The avocado is so fresh!“

“They’re reliable! Been going here for about 8 years now. It seems to be ran by a Chinese couple there, very kind folk. Always a smile on their face when I see them. It’s a super no-frills hole-in-the-wall call—ahead type dealio. Our regular items are:

1. Beef chow mein
2. Beef or house chow fun
3. Fried Rice
4. Beef and Brocolli
5. Sweet and sour pork
6. Fried pork wontons
7. Shrimp egg foo young - recent pick-up

& some refrigerated Dr. Pepper cans! Call ahead about 15-20 minutes and they’re always pretty good about getting done by then. Sometimes I wait a little extra but it’s because they’re a bit busy for dinner time.“

“Highly recommended!!

This was my first time trying Olive Garden, and everything was amazing. I had one of their homemade soups as an appetizer, it was so flavorful. I also ordered the Herb-Grilled Salmon 😋 and it was absolutely delicious, definitely a 10/10. The Chicken Alfredo was really nice as well.

The whole staff was welcoming and polite, especially our server Andy. Thank you for the great experience! 🙏🏽“

“Known for their menu family-style plates to share, Daeho brings quality Korean food to the Bay Area. Make sure to enjoy the food while it’s hot because as it cools it becomes more thick and heavier to eat.

Doh Gal Jjim / braised short rib + ox tendon (~$110 for large with add ons of mozzarella cheese, potato noodles, and rice cakes): shared this between 3 people and was not able to finish it. The presentation was amazing – the staff bring it in a hot stone bowl and blow-torch the cheese in front of you. The meat is extremely tender and juicy due to it being braised. We got the highest spice level and it was perfect – it made an impact but not overbearing to the point where it ruined the meal. The potatoes and caramelized onions were great complements to the beef. The ox cartilage was extremely gooey but I wish they added more.

Spicy Kalbitang ($24 for regular size): flavorful and refreshing soup that would taste amazing on a cold day. Broth was light and great salt levels – never fell flat on flavor.

Kalbi Ttoek-bokki ($13): basically the same sauce and seasoning as the Kalbijjik dishes but a smaller portion to share if you want to try other menu items.

Had to make a Yelp reservation in advanced, and upon arrival to confirm the reservation, had to wait for about 20 minutes. The restaurant is small in size but relies on a quick turnover rate and quick service to host many guests. The staff even pack up the food for you with their own sealed containers. I would go here maybe once or twice a year to celebrate with family or friends but the wait time deters me from coming back more frequently.“

“I went in today and I must say the type of customer service I got was amazing!!! Didn’t get her name but was a short Hispanic lady!! She went above and beyond to help me find some jalapeños chips(she went to the back to check) also her attitude was just amazing!!!“

“It’s my first visit here. I loved the rice casserole and the fried pork ribs. The rice casserole was very authentic and delicious, just like the best ones I had in China.

The place was clean and the service was great. The manager answered my questions and when she saw there’s oil on my hands, she got me a paper napkin before I asked. I was very grateful!“

“Im a big fan of their Phò, grilled chicken and shrimp vermicelli and their pastries . The staffs and owner Alice are very attentive and go their way to know their customers/guests. I highly recommend La Patisserie“

“We've entrusted Erik's Deli to cater several of our events. Most recently, we requested they provide 25 box lunch meals on a very short timeline. The Erik's Deli team were more than happy to accept the order, super responsive, accommodated our special requests, and had our order done early! We couldn't ask for better service.“

“Good food and service. Finally inside seating with 3 tables.“

“Great Rio Grande Club sandwich, service & conversation. Thank you“

“I ordered the make-your-own-pasta bowl with fettuccine and marinara sauce. The breadsticks were amazing and the pasta was pretty good. Our waitress was really nice and we got our soups in about 3 minutes. Even though they didn’t have fettuccine on their make-your-own-pasta bowl, she made sure I got it free of charge. The main course came about 5 minutes later. Overall it was a nice experience.“

“Celebrated my friend's birthday here. Initially we were a party of 4 but later some friends decided to give a surprise and joined in.. The staff here was really accommodating and they let us change the table so everyone can sit together and celebrate our friend.
Generous portions and tasty food.“

“TK Noodle in Milpitas is an absolute gem for anyone craving authentic, comforting, and flavorful Vietnamese cuisine. Every visit here feels like a treat, and their dishes never disappoint. The broth in their noodle soups is incredibly rich and aromatic, clearly crafted with care and packed with bold flavors that make each bite irresistible.

The menu offers a great variety, but the classics like their beef noodle soup or pork and shrimp rice noodles are absolute must-tries. The noodles are perfectly cooked with just the right texture, and the fresh herbs and garnishes elevate the dish to perfection. Portion sizes are generous, and everything is served piping hot and beautifully presented.

The service is always quick and efficient, even during the busiest hours. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make you feel right at home. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for a quick bite or a relaxed meal with friends and family.

TK Noodle is hands down one of the best places for Vietnamese comfort food in Milpitas. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Vietnamese cuisine or trying it for the first time, this place is a must-visit. I can’t wait to return and try more of their amazing dishes!“

“Tried their food for the first time and I reenjoyed it.
The food seemed quite fresh and tasty. Love the large selection of toppings they have as well.
I absolutely loved their wasabi which was the spiciest one I have tried so far.
I will be going there again.“

“This is delicious! I really like eating rattan pepper fish. It would be better if the potato shreds were more sour and spicy. The pot-roasted pork is also delicious, but I don’t eat fried food very much. If I eat one piece, it will be almost the same. Overall, the service was great, the food was great, a bit pricey but fresh, will definitely go back.“

“Take out or Delivery app only.

This little shop is great. Food is fresh, delicious, and plentiful. do Kinda wish they had a lunch-box meal where it's a half portion of their rice meal with a drink (I feel like I need a nap)“

“Food was done quickly and it tasted amazingly delicious.“

“Every time I come into this Panera, I’m greeted with nothing but positive energy and awesome service🤌🏾Tianna and Sabbath always go above and beyond🙂‍↔️ They’re warm, welcoming, and consistent every single visit. The rest of the staff is great too, and you can tell they take pride in what they do🔥

“The best pho / Vietnamese place in the area. We stumbled upon this cute place en route home and loved the food. Super quick service, fresh delicious food, polite, caring host & server who took her time to explain the dishes. Even though we entered to sit & eat right at about closing time, service was amazing!

Vegetarian options: Not too many vegetarian options“
