31 Best Soup near Pleasanton

“I recently dined at Pho Saigon and ordered the large beef pho, chicken with rice, and fried rice with shrimp. The dishes were served hot, the portions were good size and the service was quick and courteous. There was also ample seating, which made the visit comfortable. However, I observed a staff member using same set of gloves after cleaning tables, handling the register, and serving food...“

“We came here more than year ago for family reunion and we all loved the food here, this summer we came back here again for reunion. I love every dished my sister ordered.

The soup is amazing and I got two bowls of it and hope to comeback again next year. But the chef will be retired in few months. If you are in time in this area you better take the chance to enjoy the food here.“

“came here once a few weeks ago (i only have the time to write a review rn) but i really enjoyed the food. because of special eating needs there was only a few items on the menu I could have but the dishes I ordered and ate which fit this criteria were really nice. In addition, I really liked the decorations as well as the staff.“

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

“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!“

“I haven’t been in a while, but it did not fail to impress because everything is so clean, and the flow of the lines was fast. The crew had it all together, and I was introduced to trying new things like strawberry dragon, fruit drinks, and you can’t miss the falafel euro bowl.

I’m kind of a stickler, but when I look around, everything was organized and clean, and everything had its place. All in all, a great experience made even better.“

“Love Erik's Delicafe, very healthy foods! You must try this place“

“I used to go to the Mountain View store when I used to live in South Bay. After moving to Eastbay it's great to have the same menu with all the great sandwiches.
The half sandwich, cup of soup is perfect portion for the right price. Awesome consistency for decades now“

“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!“

“While hanging out around the Dublin area we decided to stop into this spot since our group was craving some Asian food. Odagada was really good and the staff was very friendly. My favorite was the fried chicken which I had with beer! Super juicy crispy chicken packed full of flavor paired perfectly with beer. Will definitely be back here to Odagada and try more items from the menu.“

“Amazing sandwich shop in Livermore! All the produce is fresh and the bread is made daily. The owners of the shop greet you when you come in and you immediately feel at home. The Italian Sandwich is incredible. The salads and soups are just as good.“

“My Livermore “Go-To” Thai Food fix. The family that owns the restaurant is “Hands-On” and super friendly and attentive. Most importantly the food is authentic and delicious.“

“Pho broth was amazing. Didn't need a lot of sauce. It was already good. Spent almost 400 and it was well worth it. Food was great, quiet and the ac worked awesome, especially in this hot weather.. lol.. will visit again if I'm in the area“

“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.“

“GRATE SANDWICH 🥪 NICE SERVICE FRIENDLY STAFF“

“Carlos was absolutely AMAZING! Our visit was on a VERY busy Friday night, and despite how busy it was, he was incredibly attentive, friendly, and on top of everything. We had a party of 6, so we were constantly needing something, but Carlos never forgot about us. Every time he passed our table, he checked in to see if we needed anything, and we never went without breadsticks!

He truly made our experience so much better. By far one of the best servers we’ve had! Carlos deserves a RAISE! 👏🏼 He’s a great example of what amazing customer service should look like. Thank you, Carlos, for making our night so enjoyable!“

“What a find! We stopped here on A road trip and were craving Vietnamese food, like we always do. Pho Dublin exceeded our expectations. The Bahn Mi was delicious and fresh, the bread was perfectly crunchy and soft. The spring rolls are wrapped very well and all of their ingredients are super fresh. Definitely recommend the vermicelli bowl too. Make sure you stop by this place if you have the chance! Cravings = satisfied“

“It's a bit of a hole-in-the-wall in a Dublin strip mall which isn't where I'd expect to find a tasty Hainanese Chicken Rice plate and yet its the kind of unasuming place (next to a Ranch 99) that I'd expect a yummy surprise.

It was the latter.

I haven't explored every corner of the Bay Area but it's been a long time since I've had a really satisfying chicken rice. Chicken skin has a really nice chewy texture to it. The fat is well rendered but the meat is just cooked. I'm a little surprised there aren't reviews complaining about undercooked chicken but its just as it should be. Rice was nicely seasoned. Quail eggs and peanuts on the side were a nice addition.

The soup was also a really pleasant surprise. It had a nice silky quality and rich with chicken flavor but they did a really good job of skimming any extra fat to keep it from being oily.

The ginger and scallion was good and traditional but a sweet soy or a chili sauce would have been welcome additions.“

“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!“

“Love their indoor/outdoor dining, healthy soups n salads, courteous n helpful staff!“

“I had been craving a sandwich with some good bread. We went right before closing and to my surprise the bread was still fresh, had a slight crisp outside and very soft inside. We loved it so much we went back the next day. Our choices were cold tuna, italian and the brisket sandwiches. All were very good choices. The clam chowder soup was a great compliment to the tuna. My son had the mac-n-cheese he doesn’t eat anyones, but mine, however, he liked it! I plan to go back and try the French Dip next time. ?“
