36 Best Soup near Pacoima

“Muy buena atención y muy rica la comida 😋“

“A must-visit spot with an entirely vegan menu bursting with flavor. The Truffle Mac 'n' Cheese is unreal—creamy and rich enough to question its vegan status (confirmed by the owner!). Standouts include Spicy Garlic Ramen, Smoked Chili Ramen, and addictive Avocado Crispy Rice. Sushi rolls and sides like Japanese curry shine too. Cozy ambiance, quick service, and bold dishes make it worth the hunt in the unassuming plaza. Minor tofu texture quirks are forgiven for the explosive flavors. Pricey but worth every bite! 🌱✨ Updated from previous review on 2025-08-05“

“Test its by yourself.clean foods and good service“

“We were driving around shopping and got hungry, so we stopped in to Monta Factory. I was completely unfamiliar with the food, but the aromas were fantastic. We decided to play it safe and got the chicken sandwiches plus a couple of the cheese khinkali. While we were waiting for the food, several large orders went out catering style. So, although we were the only patrons dining in, it was clear the restaurant does a good catering business.

Our food arrived in a few minutes, and it all looked great. The chicken sandwich had a generous piece of baked chicken. There were pickled veggies, roasted peppers, a great garlic sauce, all in a perfectly toasted chibatta bun. All together, it amounted to a wonderful sandwich. It was delicious and filling. A great combination of flavors.

I had never had a khinkali before, so didn’t know what to expect. It was a very cheesy, lightly fried dumpling. Very good!

After having a sample of what they make, I want to go back and have a selection of the rest. I’m definitely coming back.“

“Food was amazing, even got an appetizer on the house. Service was fast and professional but also very friendly and inviting. Our server Natalie was fast and made sure we had everything we needed and made good suggestions on what to order. This place is a 10 out of 10….. highly recommend“

“Absolutely THE BEST RAMEN!!!! I LOVE THE SPICY TONKASU. YUMMY. I have tried so many ramen places and this is the only one that satisfies. The staff is amazing, too. They even remember what every member of my family usually orders. Personalized, kind and attentive service.“

“I came in on 05/10/2025 around 5pm.

Food: Tried their Tsukemen for the first time. It was served with two tender slices of pork and marinated egg. The broth was thick and salty, pairs so well with the jumbo ramen noodles.
They have a new Fried Calamari appetizer on the menu, it comes with I believe a sriracha mayo dip. The batter was well seasoned and the calamari itself is not rubbery. The batter got burned a bit, but I do not mind at all.

Service: It was perfect. The staff were attentive.

Atmosphere: The dining space was clean. Gives off a typical Ramen Restaurant vibe. It has counter seating.

Overall the food tasted great. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
I don't go to Tsujita anymore for Tsukemen. Kai Ramen all the way.“

“They have the most amazing soups! Healthy and delicious! Plus they have amazing customer service!“

“They have the best Pho in the Reseda area. This is my go to spot since the goldfish in the front entrance.. they have really made it look nice. All their pho is delicious. Everything on the menu is amazing. They are also opened late that is a plus. Location is always busy but worth the wait. Their food is authentic tasting.“

“100% RECOMENDADO DELICIOSA TODA LA COMIDA ♥️“

“This has been my family’s go to restaurant for decades. Every time I go here, I am hit with nostalgia. Most birthdays and special occasions were spent here. Since I live out of state now, I always have to stop at chi chi's whenever I visit California. The plain cheese pizza is the best pizza hands down. I’ll never find another pizza like it. Also the cold cut sandwiches are delicious 🤤 I wish chi chis would extend into Oregon 🥲 also, please NEVER go out of business or I would be so devastated lol“

“Swung by this little ol establishment with 3 others on a blistering Sunday afternoon and what a surprise Thai Victory was! I now understand why TV has received the voluminous amount of 5 stars. Coming from Thai Town, TV can really be ranked amongst the gr10s.

Inside - 4/5
Very cozy and intimate with only a handful of tables. Bunch of Thai decor around the restaurant. And of course a random TV and hanging Xbox hah.

Service - 5/5
This sm0l establishment is run by the nicest (I assume) couple. They checked on us often and offered recommendations for the different dishes (e.g., spice, rice vs noodles). They also gave us a couple Thai tea's on the house! Very refreshing during this heat wave.

Food - 5/5
Now I'll be honest with the non-lunch special value of at least ~$14-17 a plate, I was worried that we would not have enough food and/or they quality would not be great. Alas, I was gratefully mistaken. This day we got Chicken Pad Thai, fried Eggplant, Roasted Duck Basil and Garlic Basil Tofu. Each dish was made with fresh ingredients, wasn't overly cooked or oily and was filling. Much like I said above, TV could stand on it's own Thai Town. But, why compete with so many other restaurants when you can capitalize in NOHO? My personal favorite dish was the roasted duck. The duck was crispy and was on a bed of Chinese broccoli. All dishes were distinct, but complimentary. Also we had some Thai coffees and man did it wake us up (and also sent us to the bathroom hah).

TL;DR
Overall 5/5
- Sm0l cozy hole in the wall with a handful of tables
- Small lot, plus plenty of street parking
- Lunch specials will be your best deal
- GR10 service
- Recommend Thai coffee, Thai Tea, Pad Thai, Eggplant, Roasted Duck Basil, and Garlic Basil Tofu

“Absolutely Amazing Food and Flavors!
Definitely will save this place in my phone cause this is a hidden gem and a must visit when you’re out in Van Nuys. The spring rolls are amazing and the spicy friend veggies rice as well. Definitely will be Back! 10/10“

“Great atmosfier, amazing food, unforgettable time with friends!!!$“

“I’ve had these sandwiches and gone to this sandwich shop for a while now. I’ve never had an unpleasant experience (this place might have given me food poisoning before but it’s unlikely, because my whole family had these sandwiches and had no effect, but that only happened once) if you are looking for a good Italian, check out this place. The actual restaurant is quite small, but I usually order from the app. This place is wow. Just amazing. Please check this place out. It will not disappoint.“

“Was thrilled to find a place with so many vegan and vegetarian options for a bunch of new food I've never tried before! We asked for some recommendations and the ladies explained what each dish was and offered samples. In the end, we went with the Armenian potato salad, mujadara, itch / eech, and lahmajun - all were tasty, but the eech was my favorite. Looking forward to trying more!“

“Hidden gem! Great Thai taste took me back to Bangkok! Will be back again“

“It is wonderful!! Service great and the food is delicious. Try the Tortilla soup!!!!“

“They serve Northern Thai food (Nam Prik Ong and Sai Ua). They also have Larb Northern style. It’s not on the menu, however, you could request it.“

“THEY HAVE ANGEL WINGS but was disappointed in the mango with sticky rice especially for $15 the chrunchie rice better without rice didn’t taste traditional under cooked minimal coconut sweet cream I asked for an extra they wanted to charge me$2 for 1 ounce cup…$3 mango $1 for rice coconut cream from c8 oz can 15 cents total 4.15 cost $15 charge crazy but the food bombs ?“

“we have been going to this restaurant for a long time. we love their food But we noticed that they changed the portion size! We understand that everything is getting expensive but they made portion size way little. I ordered vegetarian quesadilla and always ordered and my husband ordered torta and both orders came out too small!! they barely put vegetables inside so we really did not like it!“

“Ordered chicken pad thai, pineapple fried rice, spicy (drunken) noodles, and spicy beef salad.
Everything tasted fine, except the spicy drunken noodles itself was a bit overcooked, and was a bit clumpy, I never had that experience at other Thai places. Maybe the rice noodles were frozen and thawed. But the flavor was good. Will definitely be back next time when cravings hit.“

“Fresh delicious food prepared to order.“

“The food here as well as service is beyond any experience I've had in LA since I moved here 14 years ago. Chinese food is my favorite, but I have never found one in this town or surrounding cities that could match this place on all points. Some places have good food but rude waiters, or good waiters bad food, you get the point. Came here Sunday after church with my mother for lunch and we were both so impressed. Definitely give this place a shot, and to the restaurant don't change a thing! ❤️❤️“

“The selection of vegetables, salad, meat chips and wraps are what sold me!! Very healthy and tasty! They also have drinks without sugar!!“

“Old School Chinese food. Service has always been great. Servings are generous. I love their take on orange chicken because it has a lighter batter.

Dietary restrictions: I often request for less sauce since my husband is on low sodium and they comply“

“The best Chinese in L.A !!! Always fresh & made to order.. excellent service too!“

“GREAT COSTUMER SERVICE ON TOP OF THE ABSOLUTE DELI FOOD - VERY PEACEFUL ENVIRONMENT <3“

“Grandma’s Thai Restaurant hits the spot for comfort Thai food. The Pad Thai my favorite. Perfectly balanced, flavorful, and cooked just right. The rest of the menu is solid too, with generous portions and friendly service. The interior could use a bit of a refresh, but there’s a certain charm to its cozy, lived-in vibe. Worth grabbing a pickup order.“

“We had early dinner there today. Wonton soup was delicious. Chicken in garlic sauce was extremely tasty and vegetable noodles was succulent. The service was utmost friendly and polite. Thank you.“

“Your sourdough bread is the BEST bread I have ever had. We finished off a whole round loaf in 2 days. I’m now in a mission to track them down when they are in the area so I can buy them out!!!“

“I've never been here before but I ordered from doordash on a whim.

We had the wor wonton soup, pupu platter, and the veggie egg rolls. They also sent us pork ribs! I'm guessing the pork ribs were a bonus. Either way, the food was absolutely delicious! Next time I'm in the area, I plan on ordering from them again because the food was so good! 5/5“

“Very attentive and hard working people. We didn't have to wait for refills at all. Unfortunately, they only have two kinds of dressing for salad: ranch and Italian, and Italian was extremely sour. For soups ( we tried 3 of them) minestrone was the worth. Neither one from our party liked it. The other two were little bit better, but not as great as they were a year ago.“

“It was our first time here, and we came to celebrate my husband's birthday. The place wasn’t too busy when we arrived, and we were welcomed right away. Our server was friendly and attentive, making the experience even better.

We tried a variety of dishes, but the real standout was the San Pedro-style shrimp, it was absolutely delicious! While we wouldn’t have minded a bit more potatoes and corn, the flavors were on point, and overall, it was fire 🔥

No doubt, we’ll be coming back!“

“Their beef pho is delicious and filling.“
