50 Best Soup near Studio City

“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.“

“GREAT COSTUMER SERVICE ON TOP OF THE ABSOLUTE DELI FOOD - VERY PEACEFUL ENVIRONMENT <3“

“The best Chinese in L.A !!! Always fresh & made to order.. excellent service too!“

“Great customer service! Will def return“

“Another ktown classic which I’m so glad I finally got to try. Sul lung tang is such a comforting dish for me with the warm hearty soup. I got the mixed which came with brisket, flank, intestine, tripe, tongue etc, although you can customize it however you want. I topped mine with a generous helping of spring onion, seasoned with salt and paper, poured in my bowl of rice and proceeded to slurp the bowl till I could lick the bottom. Thinking about it makes me drool. Highly highly recommended!!
We got lucky and there was no wait when we arrived but by the time we were done eating, the line was out the door! Service is quick they only serve cabbage and radish kimchi for banchan.“

“This place is soooo EPIC!! So epic the cast of Parasite movie ate here after winning the #Oscars! Nackchi bokum was the best I ever ate but everything was authentic and delicious!! 🦑👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️“

“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.“

“Ordered the seafood and leek pancake with the assorted mild tofu soup combo and mild wasn't really spicy which is great since I cannot handle too much spice. My friend got the cold noodle jjol myun and it was quite spicy. The banchan (side dishes) were delicious and we asked for refills!“

“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!“

“Hands down one of my favorite Korean restaurants for years. The food just tastes amazing. Well known amongst Koreans for a reason. I always get the bulgogi and dongchimi noodles. The dongchimi noodles are a must when coming here, it’s what it’s best known for. Paired with their bulgogi, the experience just gets better. I’m not one who likes sweet, soy based marinated meats, but this place does it so well. Their marinade is not too strong or sweet, the meat is soft. Dip it into their nutty and savory sesame oil? Game over. The combination is just amazing. Please try these two together! Highly recommend. Yes, the bulgogi is a bit pricey, but it hits and the meat is so soft.“

“Amazing authentic Korean food! The kkakdugi was incredibly fresh and delicious, and all of the side dishes were excellent. The food was flavorful, the portions were generous, and the service was warm and friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant if you're craving authentic Korean comfort food. I'll definitely be back!“

“อาหารอร่อย บริการดีมากๆครับ 😇🙏🏻“

“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. ❤“

“My first time and very satisfied. I ordered pork soup with rice and it is soooooo good!“

“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! 🍣 🇯🇵 🍱“

“Staff friendly and awesome Thai foods“

“Thai aunties run this place with their smiles and charm not young staff mindlessly running around. Food is truly authentic and menu offer surprisingly wide selection you do not easily find at other Thai restaurants. Many Thai patrions reassured my praise. Thai Central Cuisine is truly special.“

“Chichen Itza is a local gem; a real, honest cocina Yucateco. I often find that even if yucatecan cuisine is on a menu of a restaurant, it may be half hearted, perhaps assuming the flavors and heat won't sell. Absolutely not the case her

Chichen Itza is a small, but confident showcase. There is consistent high quality to the food, which is artfully prepared and served. The dishes include delicacies such as: Cochinita Pibil, Poc Chuc, Relleno Negro, Agua de Chaya, and others. Humble, basic ingredients from the earth and sea, crafted into dishes possessing impeccable flavor and soul.

For those wary of high scoville numbers, the heat is restrained, but you can lay it on too and enjoy the wonderful flavor that can be harnessed from the Habanero.

As it is within a food court, and there is the intensely popular Holbox next door, the smell of ceviche and other uncooked seafood can be present. Finding seating can be challenging as well. Do not let this keep you from going.

Park on the street, and ignore the line out the door for Holbox. The food, and the people of Chichen Itza are worth every effort to come enjoy.“

“Delicious Udon and other Japanese specialties“

“What you don't know is the menu can be a bit redundant. Besides the sandwiches, everything is a variation of itself. I fount the Boureg to be some of the best I've ever had. This is definitely a lunch spot, the bites are pretty small. I like this casual, large glass windowed eatery.“

“their foods are good.. i like it..“

“Delicious 👌 the greatest meal at Korea town LA“

“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.“

“Great food, location and service“

“JunTong SulLungTang is a cozy Korean restaurant in Los Angeles known for its authentic sullungtang (beef bone soup) and other traditional soups like galbi tang and haejangguk, served with house‑made kimchi and rice that many diners find comforting and flavorful. Customers often praise the rich broth, generous portions, and friendly service in a relaxed, no‑frills setting that’s perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner any day of the week. While it’s a simple spot, the hearty soups and classic Korean comfort food make it a go‑to choice for warming up on a chilly day or satisfying cravings for traditional flavors in Koreatown.“

“100% RECOMENDADO DELICIOSA TODA LA COMIDA ♥️“

“Kobawoo House is an excellent restaurant that offers authentic Korean cuisine in a welcoming and comfortable setting. The food was fresh, flavorful, and prepared with great attention to detail, delivering rich and satisfying flavors in every dish. The portions were generous, and the quality of the ingredients was evident throughout the meal. The staff was friendly, attentive, and efficient, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable dining experience from start to finish. I appreciated the warm atmosphere and the consistency in both food and service. Everything felt well organized and professionally managed. Overall, Kobawoo House is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for authentic Korean food and outstanding hospitality. I would definitely recommend it and look forward to returning again.“

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

“Came here with a group and had a lovely experience! The parking lot is valet only but it's only $4. The hospitality was awesome and all the meat was amazing especially the pork and extremely tender galbi! Loved the pancake and soups as well. Lovely service! She brought us free soju and soup as well! Highly recommend this place for great atmosphere and BBQ!“

“Came in for the first time a few years ago because I was interested in the "twice-fried noodles" (tsuivan)... was instantly hooked. Everything here is just produced with so much attention to detail and served with such charisma. Highly recommend, also try the salted milk tea 😁😁“

“OMG I loved the experience. Heaven bless this sweet, nostalgic restaurant. The Korean lady who served me was very friendly and caring, the atmosphere reminded me of family. I tried their breakfast with seaweed soup and the food was delicious. The side dishes are homemade and have many varieties. 100% recommend 💖“

“A 4 in one location! Loved the variety of the different type of foods! The soups were delicious, the smash burger smelled good(didn’t taste it was for my young son) which he said was good, the arugula salad so tasty and the pink power salad was indescribable(that good) definitely coming back again. The young lady who took our order was so kind too!“

“Great atmosfier, amazing food, unforgettable time with friends!!!$“

“All Korean menus are okay. I feel like I am in Seoul, South Korea..🥰🥰“

“hands down my #1 korean food joint! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“My parents came out of town and wanted to try fresh raw crab and after browsing multiple websites we landed on this restaurant. The crab was perfect and exactly what they were craving. Food was really good and we really enjoyed it. We will definitely go back when they are back in town.“

“I love this place! I used to live nearby and i stumbled in right at opening time my first day. they have a wait if you're going at popular times. Small strip mall parking.

wow, i became a loyal fan of the cheonggukjang, which i never had before. The owner is kind, and it feels like we're being taken care of like I'm at their home.

i am not korean, and especially at that early time 10 years ago I was often the only non-korean... but when they saw me eating cheonggukjang not bbq, i got some nods of approval 🤣 One korean man came up to my table after i ate once and asked me how i know this soup because it's controversial with even koreans.

But i loveeee fermented foods. and honestly, anytime i was sick this soup made me better in a day. I miss living so close to it, i have to make special trips to go now.

I tell all lovers of korean food to go here!“

“Great customer service and delicious and flavorful food“

“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.“

“Swadikaa 🙏

if it has to be Thai, it has to be NAT

One of the best Thai food experiences in Los Angeles! If you're a Thai food lover, this place is an absolute must-visit. And if you haven't tried it yet, you're truly missing something in life.

The food is authentic, incredibly flavorful, and the portions are amazing — one dish is easily enough for two people. Every bite feels like comfort food made with love.

What makes this place even more special is the owner and chef, Nata. She serves every guest with so much warmth and care that you'll feel as if your own mother is cooking and serving you. She is sweet, approachable, open to suggestions, and always makes you feel right at home.

Great conversations, outstanding hospitality, and unforgettable food — this place has it all. It's not just a restaurant; it's an experience. Highly recommended, and definitely one of the hidden gems of Los Angeles!“

“I’ve been meaning to try this spot but it’s always packed during the day. Came around midnight since it’s open 24hrs and I’m happy to finally ate here. Food so good I didn’t even bother with a before pic 😭😅 I’m coming here again for sure! Great and friendly service!“

“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.“

“I visited this place on 04/07/2026, and saying that I liked it would be an understatement.

The service was 100 out of 10. The waiter knew the menu very well and was able to make great recommendations. I ordered the coconut milk soup with seafood, and it was absolutely delicious. There was a lot of seafood in it, and the portion was very generous.

We also ordered chicken and drinks. Honestly, the amount of food they brought us could easily feed three people. For $49 total, it was definitely worth it.

I also want to mention the honesty and kindness of the staff. I accidentally left my AirPods at the table, and the waitress found my car in the parking lot and personally returned them to me. That really impressed me and says a lot about the level of service and care they provide.

The atmosphere was calm, pleasant, and very welcoming. I definitely recommend this place and would be happy to come back again.“

“The best Korean restaurant I've ever known in LA. The food is not localized and served just as it is in Korea. Also very reasonable price.
One thing I was not comfortable with was that, the owner lady talked only to my friend (white), and she didn't even looked at me (non-korean asian) when i asked a question.“

“조미료가 전혀 들어가지 않은 깔끔하고 맛있고 풍성한 음식은 한 사람 한 사람의 건강을 우선하는 주인의 따뜻한 마음까지 합하여 최고의 레스토랑으로 추천합니다!!!“

“A must. So delicious. Can't wait to go back!! Thank goodness for friends that share food stories. �“

“While I miss the old school San (Mountain) restaurant’s samgyetang, Buil remains a top choice for a good reason.

Best Korean ginseng chicken soup for recovery. The fruit based kimchi without msg was my reason for rating this spot an extra star making it to five stars on my review. Quality over cost saving when it comes to health is a major win for this spot 👏🏻“

“Excellent, clean, attentive, friendly service. Definitely would go back.“

“Best Thai food in town by far!!!
I’ve eaten there twice and have tried their green curry, Penang curry, pad Thai, and papaya salad and all are 10/10.
And their Thai tea is a MUST!!!
Two thumbs up 👍
Looking forward to going back and trying everything on their menu.“

“Delicious food. Owners always happy to accommodate my son with any changes to the dishes. They're very pleasant to deal with. This has become our new go to restaurant when we're craving Chinese food. This review is an update from 7 years ago.“
