14 Best Soup near Santa Cruz

“I initially went here with my family not know how many vegan options they have! I ordered the fried udon with tofu and it was delicious. The service was great as well, but it went over our heads at first that we had to pay at the counter. Just a heads up for those who end up waiting for their check to get picked up! Definitely going to come back here as a vegan staple.“

“I've been meaning to leave a review for Pleasure Pizza (Pacific Avenue) we visited Santa Cruz in March and decided to try this eatery as natives of New York we are super picky about our pizza, we were pleasantly surprised that it was what we expected. Fresh ingredients, crust, sauce, cheese content was just right and the vibe was laid back and relaxing. The customer service was on point, Ace our server was friendly, checked to make sure we were good throughout, well done!! Would highly recommend Pleasure Pizza yummy!!!“

“Came in because I was craving phô.. I have to say I was disappointed with the flavor of it so I would not order that particular plate again.. however, their spork spring rolls are really good. I just wish their peanut sauce was a bit thicker... the salt & pepper wings def were the hit of the night. I would go back and order more wings if my stomach could handle it, lol... overall, I had a good experience there, and the staff was friendly.“

“The kindest owners and chefs ever, used to go here as a freshman in college and shared stories with the eager owners. They'd create such a welcoming space and on-the-house freebies like desserts. Its such an underrated gem, hole in the wall spot. Please support local families! They'll feed you not only amazing food, but love too.“

“Excellent food, service, quality, presentation, and ambience. Beautiful table linens! Will keep coming back❤️“

“great food, employees very nice and sweet“

“They are open on Sunday!Wonderful authentic Chinese food(slightly less spicy for local tastes)- locally owned and friendly. Bustling, Casual sit down and take out. Lots of conversation in mandarin between kitchen, owners and hosts- which we love. We went in a large group and tried 10 dishes. Favorites were garlic chicken wing appetizer, spicy green beans, fish stew, cumin lamb, Sichuan style chicken, and the mu shu pork. We also like led the Sichuan tofu, scallops with broccoli, Mongolian beef (Chinese fajitas), and the candied walnut shrimp.“

“The food is what I expect from Olive Garden. Addictive breadsticks, yummy soup, etc. but what this review is about is Nick. This man knows what girls want. And that’s more breadsticks without asking. I found out today his only his second day but he’s working like he’s reached a flow state and this is what he truly wants to be doing. If you read this, Nick, thank you. You made lunch amazing for my child.“

“Visiting Capitola and the Monterey bay Area and went to this spot for dinner. The sandwiches were amazing! The restaurant is clean and our sandwiches and soup arrived sooo fast. The ingredients they use are fresh and top notch…and our cupcakes were soooo good!!! We plan on coming back to try other flavors of sandwiches.“
