26 Best Soup near Gretna

“Inflation is real. I hadn’t been in here in 3 plus years so man oh man have I been living under a rock.

Anyway, the food is still pretty solid (been here several times in the last decade). It’s mildly westernized bc the slice of carrots, radish are pretty thick by Vietnamese standards (note: I was in HCMC back in March 2025—HoChiMinh City). The chargrilled pork was 1/4th charred compared to the motherland but still solid in flavor. $14 for chicken spring rolls? Seemed pricey but they are super thick so not as shocking. I could have ordered two for $7.

Overall, $19 for a plate is pricey for the Westbank and would have thought I was uptown where rent is 2x. Idk. The volume is good for the price but I guess inflation is warping my perception. Overall, I still enjoyed the food and recommend them still esp if this is the new norm.“

“Anyi was a GREAT server! So friendly and attentive with all smiles. The food was excellent, it is by far my favorite in all of New orleans for gorditas. The tajadas are tasty, the sauces are good, and the meat is always flavorful and perfectly cooked. They're not shy with the cheese, either“

“Very nice restaurant, the Pho was good but not excellent. The soup was just ok, but the meat/ round was good. I have tasted better Pho than this restaurant. The size of the bowl was ok, not as large as other pho restaurants. The price of the soup was on the higher side because of the location. Overall experience was good. Thank you for the super attentive waiter. She noticed I needed a fork and immediately brought it to me.“

When it comes to Chicken shawarma, that was rocking I have never tasted Chicken shawarma like that before, I got addicted, I do A/C work. Every time I get a service call in New Orleans area I go get my lovely chicken shawarma.“

“Chef Trevor is the kindest! The sushi is Amazing! I recently visited The restaurant for dinner after a long day of school my grandkids. And work myself. We were told by the hostess that there was an hour wait and that there was barely anywhere to sit so she advises that we could sit at the bar which we did the sushi bar that is. After waiting for some time Chef Trevor noticed that we were not being really engaged. He then asked me if the kids and I would like something to drink so what you said yes the hostess one of the waiters chef Trevor’s prompting, served us drinks as well as kept our cups filled Thank you! we were very grateful for the kindness that was bestowed upon us. The Hostess. After advising of the long wait, didn’t offer a drink of water nothing. Never engaged, never updated nothing. It was busy so I didn’t panic. We just waited. Chef Trevor was very attentive. Updating and very engaging! He made our visit a pleasure. Thank you Chef Trevor! I hope that you were able to Kater Annex sushi party!❤️❤️❤️“

“my girlfriend and i always order the chicken Pho [we order the same thing every week, unfortunately dong have pics of it becasue i just have to stuff my face] but yesterday i went pick up our food and before picking up i called. i placed my order and it was funny because she called me marie instead of my govn’t name. when i got there, the owner and i laughed because of the mixed names. got on the subject of her liking my tattoo and she started telling me how her tattoo on her back is for her son Michael. my heart shattered and i honestly had tears in my eyes because the way she spoke so beautiful about how this was his dream and she wanted to do this for him was truly beautiful. we got on another subject of why i LOVE this restaurant so much!! yall, they make this broth sun up to sun down so it’s fresh for you! i can have dreams about this pho because of how yummy it is!! everyone needs to go try it! the people who work there are very sweet! great atmosphere!“

“Good rolled sandwiches. Very hearty and nutritious. Hard to beat their speed and quality in the CBD area, especially for the price. Plenty of ingredient options from the “roll your own” menu. The ladies here are very sweet, accommodating, and make an effort to learn their customers.“

“Always the best place for seafood, soup, and a good time! Been coming here with my family since before i could walk and it stands as one of our oldest traditions to have dinner or lunch here at least once a week. The staff are the absolute best! Carey will always take care of ya😉 idk who would ever give this place less than 5 stars, if you have the chance… get some boiled crabs, onion rings and a cup o soup and let em know Clare sent ya!“

“We ordered online and our order was over 43.00. According to the website when you have an order for over 35.00 you get free fried dumplings. We picked up our order gave them a 50 dollar bill to include a tip and we did not receive the fried dumplings. The rest of the food was good and made to order, but don’t say you’re going to get an order of fried dumplings for free with orders of 35.00 or more if they aren’t going to honor that. When I called to mention this the person I spoke to was a little combative about it saying if it’s not on the ticket they won’t make it. Then you need to fix the problem bruh.“

“Great food and amazing staff!“

“I never had an issue here with the service or the food. Once in a while I’ll get Chinese fry rice over and I’d choose here. I love that the rice is not greasy. It doesn’t give me stomach or chest burn. Taste just right not salty.
The things I see people complaining about is crazy. This is a small business. A fast Chinese food business. Please don’t go expecting fine dining quality. I saw one comment about chicken fry rice not having peas and carrots lol. Chinese fry rice does not normally comes with peas nor carrots. Panda Express has rice wiith peas which is a vegetable fry rice.“

“This place is nestled in the heart of the black community. They are the only place opened late in the area. The service was very rude, the menu items that they offer are not actuallY reflected on the menu. There are no prices on the menu. The place smelled like roach spray. However, I went back to this restaurant with a friend about a month ago and things were much better. The food is good there and the service was much friendlier now. In my view, they have upped their game overall. I have changed my mind about this restaurant.“
