47 Best Soup near Newark

“First timers! Bahn Mi's were so good! customer service was very courteous, and quick. Food was delicious, portions were worth the price. Soups looked amazing also!“

“Beyond average but missing some to push it to GOAT territory. The dining experience is very Chinese, from the way you order to how they structure the menu to how the dishes are served I feel like I'm back in PRC. Which could be good or bad depending on person. I ordered the signature spicy noodle combo. I agree with other reviewers that the noodles are the weakest link they are way too soft and wimpy. The soup base is good with the distinct spicy profile but the ingredients in there doesn't really get the taste integrated, they all just fell flat. Prices are on the slightly expensive side but portions are big, two people of average appetite could easily share a combo, and they have a condiments aisle you can add cilantro peanuts or whatever unlimited. Kinda weird for the noodles tho since they are already heavily seasoned, it's more of a hotpot thing. But I added some fried peanuts into my noodles nonetheless. Service was OK and vibe is family / locals.“

“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 !“

“Amazing hot pot experience! The food was fresh and delicious, and there were so many ingredients to choose from. The broth was flavorful, and everything tasted great when cooked together. I also loved the atmosphere—it was lively, clean, and perfect for a fun meal with friends or family. The staff were friendly and attentive as well. Definitely a place I’d come back to again! 🍲🥢❤“

“We stopped by to get some soup on a cold Friday night and I'm so glad that we did. The soup was absolutely delicious. The noodles brought up childhood memories of my grandma's homemade noodles. The broth was very tasty and there were plenty of vegetables. My boyfriend had steamed buns with pork, he like them a lot. Very reasonably priced. We'll be back.“

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

“Great experience at Zhangfei Hot Pot! The food was fresh and delicious, with a great variety of meats, vegetables, and other hot pot options. Everything came out quickly and was nicely presented. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. Definitely a great spot for hot pot, especially if you’re hungry. Will be back again!“

“One of the few authentic Korean restaurants in the Bay Area that doesn't skimp on the food! The Seolleongtang is delicious, but the Dogani Seolleongtang is incomparably rich and savory. The Doenjang Bibimbap truly deserves to be called a signature dish. I would also like to thank the staff for always treating customers with bright smiles and sincerity.“

“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!“

“Came on a Sunday around 7pm and there was still a line but we were seated within 15 mins so not terrible. They use QR scanning on the table but the servers do come around to check if you have questions. We ended up seated outside, which wasn't bad since it was a bit warm that day.

We ordered the regular soup dumplings (XLB), the pan fried ones, (SZB), the egg and Chive pancake, and the green onion noodles (recommended by the server). Both baos were excellent and we ended up ordering seconds of both of those. The chive pancakes were pretty good and the noodles were tasty as well but we felt that for the price, it wasn't worth it.

We'll likely be back again but stick to the baos.“

“The food was absolutely delicious! Everything was flavorful and well-seasoned, and the noodles were especially good. The portions were generous, and all the ingredients tasted fresh. Definitely a great spot if you’re craving something flavorful and satisfying. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“The picture says it all. 😋“

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

“House of Dumplings is an absolute treasure! Their dumplings are incredibly fresh, flavorful, and clearly handmade with care. Every bite is a delight, whether steamed or pan-fried. Beyond the dumplings, their other Chinese dishes are also excellent. This place is a must-visit for authentic and delicious food. Highly, highly recommend!“

“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.“

“Uniquely decorated Chinese hot pot restaurant, located in the Milpitas Square shopping plaza. The meat and veggies were fresh, and the large sauce station offered a wide variety of ingredients for you to create a personalized, custom dipping sauce. Several levels of spicy soup to choose from. Definitely one of the better spicy hot pot places in the South Bay. Fast and efficient service. Large free parking lot.“

“Great restaurant for authentic Korean Food. The location was filled with patrons. The other dishes I saw looked delicious. I had the Beef Soup with Seaweed and Egg. Along with Purple Rice and other sides. The food was amazingly good. This was my 2nd visit.“

“Went to ok noodle for lunch around 1:30, walked in and we were the only customer which was odd. The gentleman helped us setup but you mainly order from your phone. I’ve seen from the search that everyone gets the chili noodles which I couldn’t find on the app. I had to order it personally from the waiter which was weird. The food came out fast with my buddy getting the lamb which he said had a real strong lamb flavor that was overpowering. The chili noodles were okay, nothing special. The chili wonton which I was wonton in chili sauce but in reality it was wonton in a soup. Overall not the best place for “pulled noodles” but not the worse, I’ll say it’s OK.“

“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!!“

“GREAT value for the price and the sandwich was yummy! The customer service was amazing. A customer next to us was taken care of speedily and respectfully to rectify when she realized there was a sauce on the sandwich she didn’t want. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I dont like to give small businesses a hard time, the food was amazing the only issue i have is the consistency of their hot and hour soup, ITS EXTREMELY THICK, I've been to house of dumplings and hong Kong city restaurant in the area, this is thr first time encountering soup being served like this. I hope I can either get a refund on the item or an exchange. None the less everything else was great, just wish I didn't pay 11 bucks for this item“

“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!“

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

“Tried Olive Garden’s Calabrian Steak & Shrimp Bucatini through curbside To Go and overall I really enjoyed it. The pasta has a creamy Calabrian sauce with a nice little kick of spice, and the combination of steak and shrimp makes it a pretty filling dish. The bucatini holds onto the sauce really well, and I liked the spinach and tomatoes mixed in too.

Every To Go order also comes with two breadsticks and your choice of their salad or one of their soups. I went with the salad, which was neatly packaged and actually a pretty good-sized portion.

The curbside To Go process was super easy and convenient. I just pulled up, checked in, and they brought everything right out to me. My only downside was that it was a Saturday, so the food took longer than normal to come out.

Overall, a solid takeout experience. The Calabrian Steak & Shrimp Bucatini was flavorful, filling, and I’d definitely order it again.“

“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“

“Mr. Pickles is sooo good the staff is very nice and they smile when they take your order.“

“Nice place good serving staff“

“Really enjoyed our meal at Fang Kee Claypot Rice in Newark! The three-item braised platter with pig feet, pork stomach, and pork tongue was the highlight—everything was flavorful, tender, and well-seasoned. The signature eel claypot rice was delicious, with fragrant rice, savory sauce, and crispy bits at the bottom. The mushroom chicken claypot rice was also tasty and a milder option.

If you’re dining with two people, ordering the large size is a better value and makes it easier to share. Just note that the vegetable dishes can be a little pricey—the garlic stir-fried choy sum was $16. Overall, a great East Bay spot for comforting Chinese claypot rice and braised dishes.“

“I really enjoyed my lunch at Pho Tai! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. I’ve been coming here regularly and have always had a great experience. The portions are generous, the service is friendly, and everything tastes authentic and satisfying. Definitely one of my favorite places to stop by for a good meal!“

“I had a really good meal at Chili Garden. We tried the crispy shrimp, sweet-and-sour pork, spicy chicken, and the wide noodles with beef short ribs. The noodles were my favorite! We also got the braised pork with buns and pumpkin cakes for dessert, and everything was delicious.
I also tried the jasmine and green tea craft beers for the first time. I’d never seen them before, and they were soooo good 😊 Definitely try them if you go (:“

“Just had a wonderful Italian salad...so good and hubby enjoyed his sandwich and salad very much. So happy to find a new delicious salad/sandwich joint!“

“Best food ever great service been to all three highly recommended 😋5 star's definitely“

“We were here a few days ago for a birthday lunch and our server, I think her name is Arie, was the best! She was very sweet and accommodating. I had the chicken alfredo, house salad, calamari appetizer, and tiramisu. Every dish was so good and I would definitely eat here again!“

“Darin was absolutely outstanding! From the warm welcome to the exceptional service, he made our dining experience truly enjoyable. He was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The food was great, but Darin’s hospitality made the visit even more memorable. He deserves more than five stars. Highly recommended!“

“It's still good as always, provided me witha basic noodle soup. Some saud it's bland, but to me that's the best part, since I can flavor my own soup the way I like it.

I am curious... The meatball flavor has always been very consistent, but it has been hit-miss the past few months.“

“Pretty decent overall. I wish the protein (fish) servings were a little bigger.

Kind and helpful staff

The atmosphere is a little louder and brighter than I would like but that's just personal preference

Overall a decent spot with room for improvement“

“I was new to Panera and didn’t know how to use the computer menu. The people up front were friendly and quickly took my order, saving me from ordering everything wrong. I ordered a Turkey sandwich and French onion soup that was super yummy. The manager Sabbath asked if I wanted to sign up for the Sip Club and explained how it works. I signed up and use it almost every day.
I’m super happy Panera is now in Union City. It’s my go to place. I just picked up the brown sugar cinnamon bagels and am stoked to have one for breakfast tomorrow.“

“Sandwiches are made to order which is nice good selection on soft drinks with free refills. I took home one of their taken bake sourdough loaves tonight to try it.“

“Stopped by Erik’s DeliCafe for lunch in Palo Alto, and it was a great choice for a quick, satisfying meal. We ordered several vegetarian options, including the Farmer’s Market, Del Monte Special, Natural High, House Salad, Caesar Salad, and a bowl of Tomato Basil Bisque. Everything tasted fresh, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The Farmer’s Market was loaded with crisp vegetables and avocado, while the Natural High was hearty, cheesy, and packed with flavor. The Del Monte Special is a classic that’s simple but delicious. (Eriks Deli Cafe⁠)

The service was quick and friendly, making it an ideal lunch spot for office teams. The casual atmosphere, fresh sandwiches, and healthy vegetarian choices make Erik’s DeliCafe a reliable go-to when you’re looking for a tasty lunch in the Palo Alto area. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Sweet family-owned restaurant. This place is called Elite Dumpling for a reason!! Get their dumplings.

I see people on here complaining about the other food, but you’re not trying the best stuff. Food is delicious and comes out very fast.

I recommend their potstickers, chili oil wontons, all the dumplings, salt and pepper pork chops, and walnut shrimp.

They even give you free goodies when you order over $30, $50, and $100. In this economy, it’s impressive. Thank you for being a neighborhood staple!“
