This place is amazing, the price is so worth it. Everything is made fresh, so much flavor, I've been going here for about 2 years now often and I never had a meal that disappoints. You can even sample the soups they have that day, it's great! The staff is always friendly and accommodating. I am not a beef or pork eater and they always have something either vegetarian, chicken or turkey.

Donna is warm and welcoming and the food is amazing. Since it was my first time there she offered me lots of samples and threw in complimentary sides. I ate a Caribbean wrap and the fiesta chili plus a dessert (sweet yam or something?) and it was all fresh and delicious. It’s a small local spot and she goes out of her way to connect with her customers and the community so I look forward to supporting her with more business.

The beef bone broth is amazing — tastes fantastic and is gentle on the stomach if you need something easy. Will be back.

I love going to Soup Up. The menu changes everyday, so every visit I try a new soup. Wholesome ingredients, healthy, flavorful and delicious. I can’t leave without an order of one of their signature spring rolls or jerk chicken wings.Vegetarian options: Always a daily vegan soup option.

I came here for lunch and was very impressed with the homemade soups and sandwiches options available. The cashier/server gave me a sample of all her soups and it was hard to decide which one to go for. They were all good, but I decided on the Curry Chicken Vegetable Soup. It was the perfect fix on this cold afternoon. The soup was rich and full of flavor throughout. The curry was mild, not spicy and fragrant to taste. The vegetables in the soup were cut rustic and in large chunks which made this dish very hearty. There were loads of chicken cuts within the soup that were so tender and seasoned well. I also order a Jerk Chicken Spring Roll which was not bad. I will say it was a bit on the dry side but still edible and tasted good. In all, a great neighborhood find with healthy food choices. The soups rotate often; weekly and by the season. The customer service was outstanding and the female that assisted me (sorry...I forgot her name) was outstanding. She was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back to try some of their other soup options and menu items. P.S. I heard the jerk shrimp spring rolls and beef bone broth are awesome! Apparently this must be true, because it was sold out the day I came here.

I stopped by for the first time and found a gem! I was welcomed in and sampled the two available soups. I decided on the lentil soup with smoked chicken and turkey which tasted like home. I will be back !!
The soup was unbelievably good! Low/no sodium and no lack of both chicken and vegetables! I'll be back.

While in the area, I stumbled upon this hidden gem. From the moment that I walked in, I was greeted politely, informed of the days special and offered a tasting. Everything was so delicious that I can't only recommend one item. Will definitely be a repeat customer in the near future.

This wonderful hidden gem satisfied every craving I was having on a nice day. I almost went to Panera for my soup fix and I'm so glad that I didn't. Upon entering your greeted by a warm welcome and smile from I believe the owner who made the soups herself Akita (sorry if I misspelt ) the soup I opted to get was the lentil, it had such warm, fragrant and nice flavors. The jerk chicken wrap was just perfect it had beautiful jerk seasonings, fresh spinach and peppers just overall a perfect pairing for my soup. After inhaling it all I felt a sense of satisfaction instead of sluggish I felt like I was leaving from a family members house. And wish I could've took leftovers lol this is definitely my new spot, menu changes weekly so you can never expect the same thing until you try the whole menu. Will be back very soon !!
