39 Best Soup in San Jose

“### Omogari — 5-Star Review

Had a fantastic experience at Omogari! The food was flavorful, satisfying, and beautifully prepared, with a great variety of authentic Korean flavors. The atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable, and the service was friendly and attentive. Everything made for an enjoyable meal, and I’d definitely come back again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a delicious Korean dining experience in San Jose!“

“My family and I had a great experience. It wasn't busy when we went, so we got seated right away. Our server was attentive and friendly (I wish I remembered her name). We ordered chicken parmigiana and chicken alfredo with all you could eat soup and breadsticks. My son and daughter shared the alfredo and my husband had the chicken parmigiana. I simply had my son's soup 😅. I got to try 2 of the soups and was full after the 2 bowls. For four people, we spent only $56 (tip included) and left feeling full. I thought it was pretty good for a chain restaurant.“

“This is the best pho I have eaten since I worked in the peace core in Vietnam. The broth is delectable. The meat is succulent the veggies add a fresh crunch and aroma that you just can’t get at other local pho restaurants in the area. The pricing is affordable. The portions are mega. If you get the large and I honestly wish that I could dispense the broth out of my nipples because then I would have the delicious taste of Pho long Thinh with me at all times. Just get the #2 large bowl of pho, and thank me later.“

“Delicious & #shrimplythebest shrimp garlic noodles & shrimp chow fun. Tender & tasty beef ribs pho & beef ribs sizzling🫶“

“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!“

“Sandwiches is good n had a very friendly server“

“Went to lunch here and oh my gosh the soup was absolutely delicious!! Bomb ox tail noodle soup never had pho with that meat before and it is scrumpcious!! Loved it!!! Totally recommend it!!“

“Who woulda thunk that a Reuben sandwich with eggs could taste amazing! The chowder was fresh tasting and soda fountain was regulated correctly!“

“Finally tried Thai mama for the 1st time tonight. I’m so impressed, sorry I don’t know your name but the young man taking orders was super helpful & helped me make great choices. Lots of delicious vegan options which makes a nice change. We’ll be back.“

“The brisket is tender and juicy. Our go to comfort food with large portions. I love the open patio dining too.“

“More stores like The Great Mall, may find cheaper prices when it comes to clothes + Restaurants and food Markets. So on and on.....yes.“

“The best food and service.“

“So glad they’re open early. It’s a perfect spot for a comforting bowl of pho to start the day. The broth is rich and flavorful; you don’t need to add a thing. I also love the complimentary tea and the full set of condiments — even culantro, which is such a nice touch. Simple, delicious, and done right!“

“I asked to have some veggies added my Wonton Egg Noodle Soup pick-up order. I received an extra container with cabbage, broccoli, bok choy, and carrots. I added Hoison and Chili Paste sauces to flavor and it was delicious! The vegetables cost an additional $3.85 making it seem expensive. But the generous portion size allows me to get two meals. I'll do this again!“

“Love this place !!! Great food very welcoming ! I recommend to anyone“

“Great place for lunch!! 😋“

“Very nice and good food I love it“

“A great food 5 star 💫 service friendly highly recommended. ☝️“

“Much improved from already decent large portion Chinese food. The lady and son are polite, the lunch special is $12.95 filled and comes out hot n crispy. Its worth it. It may vary when busy, still worth it. Should have taken photo but engulfed it instead. Was hungry. Wo ai ni“

“My favorite deli of all no lie! Yummy turkey walnut pesto. 🦃🥑🥬🧀🍅🍞😁“

“I can't eat dairy and I had asked our waitress if the mushroom ravioli's had cheese in it and she said no it didn't and then so I ordered it. So then a few minutes later she came back and she's like. I'm so sorry the ravioli doesn't have dairy but the sauce does and so she helped me pick out something else which I ended up doing to build your own pasta. While that was going on. The manager came out and was very nice. Very helpful. Apologized about the miscommunication with the dairy on the first thing I wanted to order showed me on the tablet that's at the tables where you can find allergy and dietary restrictions so you can tell like everything it was super easy to read. It was so great and they were just. I can't remember when I've ever been to a restaurant that has been that helpful and that nice about a dietary restriction. They were amazing.“

“I’m always looking forward to my next meal here! I must say, Pho Dac Biet was my favorite. 😍“

“love cơm gà roti & cơm gà hải nam.“

“I recently dined at Năm Giao restaurant and was thoroughly impressed by their bánh beo. It was not only delicious but also served piping hot, with the perfect combination of toppings. The crispy pork skin and fried shallots added a delightful crunch that complemented the bánh beo exceptionally well.While the Bún Bò Huế was good, I felt it could benefit from a deeper flavor profile. However, the highlight for me was the chili oil they offer—it was delicious, with a nutty undertone and just the right spice level.I appreciated the variety of options, including a cooling herbal drink, which added a unique touch to the dining experience. The restaurant boasts a spacious layout with plenty of tables, creating a pleasant and inviting atmosphere. Overall, Năm Giao offers a delightful culinary journey with standout dishes and a comfortable ambiance.“

“Best Erik's I've ever been too. This is my GoTo for work lunches. Same friendly staff every time, fair prices, same high standard of cleanliness, and quick and accurate service. I wish all businesses we're like this Erik's location at The Plant. Great job all the way around!“

“I recommended very highly but you got to remind them to give you your pickle. They’re always forgetting to put the pickle in the bag 🥒“

“Great food but can get busy - they need a bigger place with more workers“

“We live in Sacramento and mIss the days when we could get Una Mas regularly there. Stopped in today at this location and it was amazing as always. Love the grilled fish burrito - fresh fish cooked to order - AMAZING as always. And the hot sauces are perfection. If you live in San Jose consider yourself lucky and go to this Una Mas!!!“

“Pho Wagon offers a solid, casual Vietnamese dining option. I ordered their most popular dish—the chicken pho—which was clean and comforting, but surprisingly mild in flavor. I even added a side of vegetable broth and still found myself reaching for the Sriracha to give it that extra kick.

The shrimp spring rolls were a highlight—fresh, light, and paired beautifully with their rich peanut sauce. I also tried the chicken fried rice, which was decent but not particularly memorable.

Overall, it’s a reliable spot if you’re in the mood for something light and simple. I’d dine here again, but it wouldn’t be my go-to for pho cravings.“

“I ordered takeout at the counter and the staff was very friendly. She told me it would take ten minutes. I arrived back early and sat down outside and before I could get up to go in she brought my food out to me outside. Good service and good food.“

“I recently had the chance to try Pho Papa, and I gotta say it exceeded my expectations! I’ve driven by it a few times and always wondered about it, and today I finally decided to give it a shot. The broth was rich and flavorful, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. They offer you the option of thick or thin noodles, and I went with the thin ones. The amount of food was just the right size, not too big, not too small (I ordered a small). Overall, it was a great experience, and I’ll definitely be back!“

“Very good food . I actually like it“

“Great sweet and sour chicken. The chicken pieces are really big which could be a plus or minus depending on how you like it, but the sauce was great, chicken not overcooked, and good fried rice.

The place is tiny, but compared to other tiny Chinese takeout places, not stuffy and very clean. The hostess was very polite and I noticed that tables were bussed very quickly.

This area of SJ / Santa Clara can be really hard to find good "basic" Chinese takeout, but if you're looking for all sorts of bite-sized pieces of chicken, beef or pork in a familiar variety of sauces, this is the best option I've found within a 10 minute drive of PayPal.

Parking: You'll have to get lucky with curb parking on the Alameda or down one of the residential side-streets. All dedicated lots in the area are "X parking only", and this place has no lot of its own.

Wheelchair accessibility: No weird thresholds or floor warping, standard height tables with movable chairs. Sidewalk in acceptable condition.“

“Fast service, fresh bread, great service. Easy online ordering.“

“Food was pretty good, had the egg foo young and general chicken lunch special with veg fried rice crab ragoon and orange chicken wing , The crab ragoon was bland the wings was good the egg foo young was on point similar to the kind I get from the east coast Chinese stores ! Will be back“

“Delicious! The food was magical! I ate alone and I felt like a � Queen. The service was fast and the servers very polite. Is worth the drive from San Leandro“

“A heartfelt thank you to Andres and the Mexico Lindo team. You went above and beyond to make my Dad's memorial lunch such a wonderful atmosphere for our family and friends. The food and patio were perfect and Maria was so thoughtful. Thank you for all the special touches.“
