36 Best Soup near Santa Monica

“I never really liked lobster rolls before, but my husband convinced me to come here and try it. Honestly, it was the best decision! This lobster roll completely changed my opinion — it was absolutely delicious, fresh, and so flavorful. Now I finally understand why people love lobster rolls. Highly recommend this place!“

“Great spot with all the feelings Japan. Amazing skewers and phenomenal hand rolls. Couldn’t get enough of the salmon sashimi. Great sake selection (we finished three bottles) and multiple drafts to sip. Engaging staff with a chef who knows what he is doing. We will return! 🍣 🇯🇵 🍱“

“Glad Hurry Curry has reopened after closing their Sawtelle location. if you are new and don't know what to order, try the chicken cutlet curry and the Chicken pasta with Alfredo sauce. The curry is bold and savory. make sure to request picked vegetables for the curry. the chicken pasta is also rich and savory. both dishes complement each other without repeating the same experience. the portions are large so bring friends or bring home plenty of portions for leftovers.“

“love this place sm!! 💜

the prices are awesome, I love the outdoor seating.

the food is super well portioned and lots and lots of veggies, which has been a pretty rare experience for me at most vegan Asian restaurants.

staff is friendly, even when swamped.

the customers are nice, which sounds weird to say but sometimes the crowd at restaurants (especially vegan) feels weird and pretentious or just icky.

their papaya salad is my favourite in LA. It's not too sweet and it's a really really good portion. super fresh. flavoured so good, and if you ask for it to be spicy they don't joke back :)

they sell little plant cuttings of bamboo and other cute home items for fair prices.

they have pickled jalapenos on tap!

they always give me extra citrus, which I appreciate!“

“Nice service and good food 🍱“

“Their spicy beef and leek soup was really not that good. That beef was super tough and the soup was incredibly spicy even after I’ve asked the man in the back for it to be little spicy as possible. Their other soup won gi tang was amazing, packed with plenty of beef and it wasn’t too salty. Their big soup plate won gi soo yook was really great too! The two servers in the front were super nice and the welcoming. Very nice atmosphere and we got seated right away and served with water.“

“I got the oyakodon set and it was such an elaborate meal, I felt like a queen. The oyakodon was so comforting and I really enjoy the fresh fish and tofu/beef sides!! I was also in a rush but the servers were kind enough to get me in and out in a jiffy :) Will be back!!“

“The stars aligned. We were overjoyed to find a BOB vegan restaurant, inspired by grandcestor Dr. Sebi's alkaline nutritional guide. Highly recommend Beyond Vegan - Culver City. The food was flavorful. My friend ordered the namesake quesadillas, and I ordered the jackfruit tacos with mango salsa. Double the flavor - we shared our meals. Yum! The portions were large, filling, and pleased my soul. What I thought to be a side of mashed sweet potatoes was warm, smooth mashed beans. Tacos and quesadillas on point. Purple wild rice was a delightful surprise. Diversity in texture, flavor, colors, and quality ingredients. No better way to catch up with a friend than eating outdoors at Beyond Vegan!“

“The ramen here is some of the most impressive in all of LA. They bring you what looks like a culinary masterpiece, yet it is all vegan. The vibes are perfect with soft lighting and good music. The staff is very friendly and accommodating while also being highly skilled, as this is not the easiest to create.“

“Couldn’t be more happy about my experience today. The staff were very kind and helpful and the food was beyond fulfilling. Nothing cheers me up more than ramen and Kai took it that much higher. Something about the tonkotsu in addition to the charsiu pork absolutely reigned based on my memory of LA selections. I don’t think I’ll ever get this close to thins location any time soon but I’m glad it left a valuable place in my ramen filled heart. ❤“

“I’ve had pho in about 6 different states. This was the best I’ve ever had! Bravo! You guys deserve it! Thanks for letting us visit! 🍲“

“Delicious Udon and other Japanese specialties“

“Yanina Nunez the manager is amazing, excellent service. She made me feel important by asking me how was the food? Is there anything we can do better? She also helped me carry my food since I walk with a cane and it’s hard to carry things! Thank you Yanina💕. I will be back. The food was delicious.“

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

“Great customer service and delicious and flavorful food“

“This is one of my favorite places on Sawtelle.
Everything I’ve ordered has been excellent, and the Galbi and Seafood Sundubu stand out.
I usually dine in, though I sometimes order food to go. The quality has been consistently outstanding.
The restaurant is comfortable, and the staff are very friendly.

With so many great restaurants lining Sawtelle Blvd, located in the area known as Little Osaka, it can be hard to decide where to eat. This place is always at the top of my list.“

“Great SOUPS! Very delicious and made with high quality ingredients. Friendly atmosphere and owner of the restaurant is friendly professional intelligent man. He poured 2 cups of soup for me and my little daughter complemented and the soups were the best what I ate for a years! I’m a soup lover and tested different soups in many countries around the world but Sole Soups Calabasas place is the greatest restaurant in my experience!“

“Food was amazing! We got papaya salad, Tom Yum seafood, Pad Kee mao, green curry, and mango sticky rice and they were all good. Be careful asking for the spicier levels because they make it actually spicy. It's ~10 min walk away from Beverly Center“

“Nong La has a dedicated Canto Viet man diligently directing the back of the house day in and day out, making sure the food hits their level of comfortable consistent cuisine, which won’t exactly blow minds or taste buds, but fills an exotic unfamiliar question mark into a manageable modern meal. But there’s this really Skinny Canto Viet lady bossing a bunch of diverse ppl around… she’s kinda scary at times and fiery at times… I suspect Nong La (Nong La means Burning) was named after the hot heat came from her own… hot… …..!😉🤓🔥🥵)“

“THE BEST PHO 🍜 ever. I travel the country and I’m a good snob. This is home cooking, unique…and absolutely delicious. Please treat yourself and go!“

“My sister and I ate at Olive Garden for lunch and our server, Marlon, was amazing from start to finish. He was very friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we always had everything we needed. His customer service is on point and he’s a really hard worker. We were so happy he was our server.“

“Rick has amazing customer service skills. We were a bit hesitant to come bak because the last time the service from another server was not great. This time around, Rick really delivered exceptional service. He is representing the restaurant and the company very well.“

“I ordered the sopes special, and it was absolutely delicious and satisfying. The salsa and handmade tortillas had an authentic homemade flavor that really stood out. The portions were great (one sope was enough for me), and the prices are reasonable. The overall experience was excellent. I will definitely be returning to try more items on the menu. Highly recommend.“

“Posting this review so I can reference their menu and throw this brochure away after (Summer 2026). Great hole in the wall chinese takeout spot. Great mom&pop alternative to Panda Express. Friendly staff and make sure to knock on both doors or call the phone number to grab their attention.“
