The Soup, located on Irving and 24th in central Irving, is a restaurant that specializes in homemade soups and rice dishes. Despite its central location surrounded by Asian supermarkets and shops, the restaurant was surprisingly empty during the reviewers' visits.
The interior of The Soup is described as clean, bright, and fresh, with two unisex restrooms located in the back corner. While the restaurant has a large space, including an upstairs area, it seems that the upstairs is not utilized, which some reviewers found to be a waste of space.
The menu at The Soup features a variety of soups and rice dishes. Reviewers particularly enjoyed the "steamed rice in lotus leaf with braised pork," which they described as having a delicious, melting-in-the-mouth pork belly and rice drenched in a flavorful sauce. However, the "hog maw and chicken stew" was less well-received, with the soup being overpowered by a strong white pepper flavor.
The service at The Soup was generally described as better than at other Chinese restaurants in the area, with the staff being attentive and responsive to the customers' needs. However, one reviewer noted that they had to wait for a while for their food to be served, even though the restaurant was not very busy.
Overall, The Soup seems to be a decent option for those craving homemade-style soups and rice dishes, with a clean and comfortable dining environment. While the prices may be a bit high for some, the large portions and generally positive reviews suggest that it could be worth a visit for those in the area.
