50 Best Soup near Oak Park

“Its nice to have an unpretentious and affordable place to eat Mexican comfort food in Oak Park. I am a fan of the $7 dollar breakfast which does not taste greasy at all. Also, the Chicken Soup is great when you are feeling run down. The restaurant is spotless despite being open 24 hours. Staff is super kind.“

“I highly recommend Manchamanteles Restaurant! My dining experience was exceptional from start to finish. The food was outstanding, with each dish expertly prepared and presented. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt welcome. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for any occasion. I will definitely be returning when in town!“

“Love Love this place!!!! Food is amazing and the staff are so friendly and attentive!!“

“GO TO SUDA’S!!! This was the best falafel and baklava I’ve ever had. Miriam, our server was so knowledgeable about the menu and so accommodating — multiple things were sent to us on the house and after we tried the Arak “milk of lions” and didn’t like it due to its strong liquors taste she was quick to taking it off of our bill and was very receptive of the feedback. You have to try the labneh spreads and beetroot mutabbal too! We had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who is Suda‘s daughter and came to find out that every recipe on the menu is her mom‘s very own. You can taste the love in every bite. The only constructive feedback I have is I wish I came here sooner. 11/10 RECOMMEND SUDA’S!“

“Great food and cocktails!“

“Found this place on accident. Highly recommend. Pad Krapao and Pad Kee Mau is delicious!
Round 2:
Khao Soi Chicken, my new favorite.
I go to many Thai restaurants and this is tops. Even the service is exceptional. Had an issue with our meal and it was quickly resolved. Stay tuned for round 3....we'll be back ?“

“The food was absolutely so delicious. I ordered a steak shawarma plate and it tasted very fresh and warm. Everyone who works here is so kind and the cashier was a young girl who read me the whole menu and helped me choose what to get. She was so nice and I loved everything about this cute cafe.“

“From the moment I walked in, I knew I was in for a treat—but I had no idea just how satisfying it would be. Let’s start with the French toast: golden, fluffy, and kissed with just the right amount of cinnamon and sweetness. It was perfection on a plate—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and topped with fresh fruit and syrup that made each bite better than the last. Next up? A wholesome egg white omelette that didn’t skip a beat on flavor. Packed with vibrant veggies and just the right amount of seasoning, it was light, fresh, and oh-so-satisfying. And that’s just scratching the surface. The service was warm, the vibe was cozy yet elevated, and every dish was crafted with care. From start to finish, this brunch felt like a hug on a plate. Whether you’re a fellow foodie, a brunch aficionado, or just looking for your next go-to spot, add this one to your list. Trust me—your taste buds will thank you.“

“вареники с грибами и картошкой, котлеты по киевски“

“Highly suggested! My mom has a strict diet, and she can just eat soups. She loved it! Every single soup is so tasty and fresh. I definitely suggest it. The price are reasonable, and the customer service is excellent. I am looking forward to come back every time I visit Chicago.“

“Family friendly restaurant with food choices for everyone but the made fresh pasta was the best part!“

“Absolutely fantastic wait staff (maybe the owner?), delicious food, and even had gluten free options! Especially in the recent heat wave, the strong a/c was a welcome refuge, seating was comfy, and our water was never allowed to reach the halfway mark.

My husband declared that if we lived here, this would be his new place for the Gai Kra Pao, which is perhaps the best praise it could get from him. My pad thai was equally fantastic and I'll definitely look to go back next time we're in the area.“

“the food and the atmosphere and experience“

“First and foremost, the staff is hands down the best! Literally the friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered! And I’ve tried a few things on the menu and nothing has been a let down. Usually I regret straying from “the usual” but I never do here. The crab rangoon is the best I’ve ever had, the wings surprised me with how tasty and well cooked they were, the basil chicken egg rolls were bomb (so is the basil chicken over rice), and the Khao Soi is a best seller for a reason!“

“Good food good drinks 🍺 real nice place to eat loved it“

“My husband and I just moved in and absolutely love the food! they have a broad menu with delicious options, it is made with love and the people who work here are so patient and kind. Highly recommend!🤗“

“Good food, good wine and a good time !!!

Came to enjoy diner here with a close friend, although I will say the food was good overall the prices were out of line for what food was being served at this restaurant. They need to be a bit more conscientious about what they are charging for some of the dishes there, although I love pasta I did not enjoy spending as much on the food there as I did when knowing I could’ve easily had a better meal from a restaurant I would’ve preferred for steak, but this is the restaurant my friend wanted to go to in particular for the breadsticks and soup, fortunately that is what made the visit worth going. The unlimited soup and breadsticks helped balance out the value of the meal.“

“This is the best Chinese food I ever had by a mile. Everything is quality and authentic. You will be happy you found this place once you do and will never order from other less quality places if you know what I mean. Quality Chinese food. Not easy to find.“

“They have the best Chinese food down. I always get the string beans and the sesame chicken. It’s so delicious.“

“Great little diner, huge portions, and the food was so good. We had the hash plates, biscuits and gravy, their special french toast, pancakes, and it was all delicious. We went Saturday morning and it was definitely the old folks time but it wasn't too busy and the food came out quickly. If I'm ever back in Chicago, I will be back.“

“I haven’t eaten inside the restaurant yet but we order take out almost weekly. We recently moved to the suburbs from Chicago and have been disappointed with the Thai places we’ve tried. We’ve finally found our go to place to order from! Food is always delivered still warm and fresh. You can choose your spice level and even the medium be quite spicy so order accordingly. We love this place and hope it stays around!“

“I was impressed with their healthy menu items. Had the Kale salad and cup of chili to go. Their salad to go container was a small square clear plastic that at first glance looked too small with all of it's ingredients squished including the dressing and condiment cups inside. I'm not a big fan of placing condiments cups or packets into or top of my fresh clean food ingredients. I would definitely ask for condiments be bagged outside of salads for future. As for quality and taste. Their menu doesn't mention that all of their produce is organic so had to ask and I was told they use organic greens. Which is a big plus bc I try to avoid any salad greens, fruits and veggies that are high in pesticides. As far as taste, once I arrived home and opened the salad, I was pleasantly surprised that while packed it didn't seem like much, unpacked and once arranged, it was a good portion for the price. The kale and veggies in my salad were fresh and crisp. Their in house dressing was also very good with quality clean ingredients! The cup of chili was small but hearty and very flavorful. It's exactly how I would prepare my own and I was very impressed with how well seasoned it was and had just the right amount of a spicy kick as Chili should be:) I will be returning to try some of their other items. I was curious about their Snickerdoodle cookie but never tried them before so $8 for 2 cookies was a bit much for me. I asked if they ever allow their customers to sample any of their cookies or menu items in general and I was told no. I would have definitely bought one cookie if it were an option. Would be nice if you offered your customers samples of small bites from time to time. It would definitely be an incentive to come back and try more of your menu items and specials in the future. I live in the area and had driven past this place almost daily and I'm glad I made the effort to find parking. Just like most of the city, it's becoming more and more difficult to find parking to even stop and visit spots like this. This is another reason you might consider appealing to new and returning customers that aren't walking distance to your new spot by offering lunch specials w/cookie or drink maybe and don't forget the complimentary bites:)

My compliments to you Chef Sarah for being "Locally sourced, Sustainably minded, Always organic and Carbon conscious"!

Vegetarian options: Their website states they are:
Locally sourced, Sustainably minded, Always organic and Carbon conscious

Dietary restrictions: They accommodated omitting rice from salad for more greens. Would use Agave, Honey and Coconut Sugar for sweetening instead of processed and inflammatory Cane sugar.

Parking: Bike path on Augusta narrows street more than before and make parking even more difficult.“

“Jesteście Mega! Dziękuje bardzo za super obsługę (w szczególności Patrycja!) i świetną opcję odebrania zakupow na parkingu podczas tego ciężkiego dla nas wszystkich okresu! Jestem bardzo wdzięczna i serducho się cieszy że na stole wielkanocnym będą pyszności z waszego sklepu 🐣🥰“

“My family and I cannot get enough of Alisha's cakes. Her tres leches is the best ever. We typically get the Oreo tres leches for our birthdays now. Everyone asks for Alisha's cakes for their birthdays. The cake is dense and rich so we usually serve smaller slices (but people will go back for seconds).“

“It’s my favorite place for banh mi in the area. My only issue was they wouldn’t give me a fork when I asked for one. Lady working there said I didn’t need it for a spring roll ? which is fair but I didn’t want to get my hands dirty. Otherwise good food.“

“The food is absolutely fantastic. Been eating Polish food all my live - and this is the real thing. My Busha would approve for sure. 🥰“

“Went there yesterday for dinner had the best nachos ever for an appetizer The guacamole was the best guacamole it was incredible really love the salsa and I would have to say that was the best chicken quesadillas I ever had at a restaurant And the waitress we had was great she was super nice and very helpful when we had questions we would be definitely coming back :)“

“My fav korean spot.
The owners are very sweet and friendly
Free pancake for party of 2 or more.
Love their yukgaejang and cold noodles
Reasonable price
Will hear korean music/entertainment in the background“

“The best goulash and meat products.They do smoke the sausage and salmon here. Steaks are high quality, aged well.

Vegetarian options: Stuffed peppers with rice and vegetables, delicious cabbage,Feta goat cheese .

Parking: They have free parking on the side, and paid parking right by their entrance.“

“I just got off an 11 hour plane ride from Japan. Lucky's hit the spot. They don't skimp out on the servings and the food is delicious and freshly cooked. Just what I needed! The staff was nice and noticed they greeted their regulars by name and talked to them. The place is clean and comfortable.“

“Recently opened in my neighborhood. excellent egg rolls and crispy fried egg noodles with beef. Will definitely be back once we can eat in.“

“Typical Olive Garden experience and menu. The food is good when you want quick, semi-authentic Italian. The staff was all friendly, very helpful, and efficient. I don't have any complaints, other than I wish their food relied a bit less on salt.“

“I am beyond please with the service our server Kelsey gave. I hated that that I couldn’t do the survey for her because the kiosk died. Hopefully the managers will be able to read this review. It’s not very often I see someone super kind and very energetic. Kelsey you truly are wonderful with your customer service. Definitely would be amazing to have another day as a server. You definitely set the standard! Anyone would be happy to have her as a server! Thank you so much Kelsey!

The food was delicious! Definitely a great place to come!“

“Horrible food. Over priced and gross. Do not recommend. No flavor and what I ordered was definitely not what it was supposed to be. 🤮“

“LOVE this place 😍...wish they would open one closer to me, I travel 3 hours to get my fix .. probably should move back to the area lol ..so much cheaper than the S-Way place ..and better, always crowded ..“

“Workers were so sweet and accommodating for my wife who has celiac disease. Food was wonderful and the restaurant was really clean too!

Dietary restrictions: Workers knew about gluten safety and washed their hands, wiped down surfaces.“

“Delicious’ I had the honey vanilla iced latte with oat milk. One of a kind! 😋“

“Some of the best sushi I’ve ever had in the Chicago area. The ingredients are fresh and high quality, the price is affordable and the portions are large. The owners are also very sweet. Definitely a hidden gem, I always make it a point to stop by whenever I’m in the area.“

“Auntie Amy has made our lives so much simpler, and tastier. Kateri's desserts are out of this world (so to speak).“

“Thank goodness this place exists. This is your classic Chinese-American take out joint and the food is simply delicious. We ordered two dinner specials and a crab rangoon app - generous portions, hot, fresh, and tasty. Specifically, there is an element of “wok hay” (a Cantonese phrase denoting smoky aroma and flavor) present in the cooking that makes it 5 stars for me.

Don’t expect any level of “service”; that’s not the point here. This is a mom and pop shop operated by weary food industry veterans. Just pick up your plate, quit yapping, and enjoy what you ordered because you won’t regret it.

Friend chiming in: Regarding the service, the woman is lovely. You get everything you need and neither more or less, perfect in my opinion.

Parking: Small parking lot but easy to navigate“

“I love the food! My favorite are the wraps! And me and my guy swear by the detox tea! It's healthy and delicious! I highly recommend it! ❤️“

“If you’re craving some legit Thai food, Rice & Noodles should be on your list. The pad Thai is straight fire—tangy, flavorful, and the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The spicy basil chicken? Don’t sleep on it. It’s got the right amount of heat that’ll have you reaching for your water, but it’s so tasty you won’t mind. I spent around $30 for a generous serving of pad Thai and basil chicken, plus a refreshing Thai iced tea. The vibe is chill, and the service is always on point, which makes it a great spot for a quick dinner or a laid-back meal. Definitely coming back to try more items on the menu!"“

“Our regular spot when traveling from Midway. The staff is awesome. The FOOD is the best in the airport. The staff recognizes us EACH time Annnnnd our Order!!! The Chicago Sour is great drink!!!

Jessica and Isabel are great!!!“

“The food is definitely pretty good here and it's got an old school atmosphere with a touch of modern which is pretty cool and they work pretty hard to keep everything fresh so that's always a plus when you know you're going to get great food so the only downside, parking is really rough around this area and it is a bit expensive but the meal was good?❤?

Parking: They have free street parking but it's a pretty busy area but the food is super fresh and pretty good so that definitely might be worth the hassle of parking“

“We ordered takeout to eat up the street at Hop Butcher—and we wound up being very pleased with the food! Our order was finished right on time and packed with care. We only asked for chopsticks and napkins no (to avoid plastic forks, etc), and they were included accordingly. The veggies were fresh and we appreciated that they had some different offering from the usual Thai places.“

“Always a must stop on my way to or from the Brookfield Zoo. I don't live in the area any more, but when I visit I always try to hit up Mr. Submarine. I don't know what it is, because at face value the ingredients are just OK. But when you get that shredded lettuce soaked with vinegar and oregano, and the not quite sure what kind of cheese it is, mixed with a true sub roll and solid deli meat. It's a beautiful thing. And the grumpy guy behind the counter, he's been there for 30 years. Different faces over the years, but it's the same guy. Just part of the experience. Never change Mr. Submarine.“

“Food & beverages are very good. The one thing I hate is NO PAPER TOWELS IN THE RESTROOM.I know it cost more but I hate those dryers that stir up all yge germs.I also hate using the door handle after people who don't wash their hands.Come on, add a dime to my coffee and keep things more sanitary.“

“Nothing to take you girlfriend to on a date, it's super stark abs drab in atmosphere, but where it lacks in looks, it delivers in some delicious ass shawarma, ages you get a ton of food for the money. The last who works at night, she's a doll, crazy nice and so helpful and kind as well. You never leave here feeling like you've missed out on something, they do what they do well.“
