50 Best Soup near Takoma Park

“I love this bakery! I go often to grab bread or baked goods for the weekend or to bring to a friends. Great location in town and good vibes there! Cute place to read a book and relax. I wish they had more Gluten free items for my husband because the gluten free carrot cake they have is always good but the only item!“

“I visited Miss Toya"s Creole on Saturday September 30th. I took my oldest son for his birthday ?. My waitress Hope gave excellent customer service. The food was awesome as always. The manager Imai came to our table numerous times to make sure everything was good. Please go to Miss Toyas in Silver Springs Md the food and customer service will not disappoint you.“

“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.“

“Cozy restaurant with big personality. Our server was happy to be there and answer any questions asked. We got the steamed dumplings and crab Rangoon. By far the best crab Rangoon we’ve enjoyed to date. Will be back to try the drunken noodles!“

“Ambar's newest location does not disappoint. If you know Ambar, it goes without saying the food is amazing. new offerings on the menu gave me some new favorites to add to my already long list. New cocktails for a new address, yes and thank you! The design esthetic is light and refreshing...And the 2nd floor ceiling is an instagram dream. Easily 5 stars.“

“Nice food good service and good prices“

“I’m going to post the same review I gave on Yelp - this is a 5 Star place! After a day in DC, my family decided to try Soul Thai on our way home. What a terrific Experience. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was some of the best Thai we have ever had. The Pad Thai was amazing. The Hang Over Noodles (Drunken Noodles) was exceptional. And the red curry was by far the best I’ve had in the area. The ambiance was quite pleasant as well. Initially we were sat in an area that was a little noisy for our taste, but they graciously moved us to a much quieter section. The owner, Nancy came over after our meal and was very appreciative of our comments on the meal. She shared with us that she personally picks the freshest ingredients she can find to ensure the quality of the food. I would highly recommend Soul Thai to everyone. We will be coming back soon. THANK YOU, Nancy!!!!“

“Service was great and beyond exceptional. A place to try for special occasion for seafood. We had the grilled octopus and sardines for appetizers. Both are great options. We had the Connecticut version of lobster roll which came in hot. The catch of the day was a pan seared cod. It was good. The hit was the squid ink risotto. This place is great to celebrate special occasions but not for weekly or even monthly dining. Would be cost prohibitive.“

“Pho VN One in Laurel is hands down one of the best Vietnamese restaurants around. The pho is incredibly flavorful rich broth, tender meat, and perfectly cooked noodles every single time. Their portions are generous, and everything tastes so fresh.
The staff is always welcoming and attentive, and the service is quick even when they’re busy. I also love their spring rolls and iced coffee they’re the perfect combo!
Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or sitting down for dinner with family, this place never disappoints. Definitely a hidden gem in Laurel highly recommend!“

“It was my first time there. Food was great. I would definitely return.“

“My Family and I stopped here because we love Greek food and heard this was authentic Greek food. First thing I tried was the calamari appetizer, as we are from Louisiana and love our seafood. The calamari hands down was the best I have ever had. The texture, the flavor, everything about it was fantastic. You can get that kind of quality in a 5 Star restaurant. Next home made fry’s, absolutely delicious. Don’t left me forget the Spanakopita, first time hearing it and eating and also fell in love with it. I had the Big Fat Gyro lamb, as well as my son and wife. Again another fantastic dish. Full of flavor and the size of these are huge so you’re getting a great deal. My wife also order a platter of Souvlaki and a Gyro platter as well for us to try. Completely delicious. Hands down such a great place. I will definitely be coming back my next trip. Keep up the great work YiaYia’s.“

“So good! Loved everything and service was great“

“(2026 Update... This place used to have the best service and the best tasting Pho in town. The broth is no longer flavorful, the spring rolls are soggy and greasy, and the service is not as great. They are still nice to customers, but not attentive and forgetful of orders.) (2022...The Pho is so delicious 😋. It's very small inside and very clean. We arrived when they first opened and we barely got a table. Try to get there early if you're going on a Sunday. The staff's really nice and the food is so good. The broth is very flavored! Awesome place!)“

“Lo mejor en comida mexicana“

“We are visiting from Tennessee and wanted authentic Thai cuisine. We found it at Sampannee!!! The best Thai meal I have ever eaten. The cocktails were delicious and the food was perfection! Very friendly kitchen and the waitress was very friendly. I’ll be dreaming of Sampannee for many months! So, so good!!“

“The best taco spot around.“

“Visiting from St Louis and so glad we came across Luke’s Lobster! We ordered Luke’s flight so we could try all three rolls. Each one was so delicious. We also got the lobster bisque and NE clam chowder. Very good!! Friendly service and neat atmosphere.“

“Great service! Food came out piping hot in less than 10 minutes. I had veggie spring rolls and my son had the shrimp pho. Both were delicious although I personally could’ve used more flavor in the pho. Love the decor and was able to find street parking right out back. Mind you, it was the middle of the day on a Friday. Wasn’t too busy inside but the ambience and music was nice.“

“Loved it!!!!... Nice and Cozy“

“I want to personally thank the wonderful staff at this restaurant! I was quite ill and not only to take give me medicine with. They drove me to the store so that I could get medicine and clean up. The kindness was incredible and I actually cried because of that kindness.. I can’t wait to get back to DC to show them how much I appreciate everything they did! I will always remember what you did. Thank you so much!“

“I love Phonatics. Something about the texture and flavor of the broth makes it my favorite, and I love sitting at the window and watching 14th St. There is even a bald eagle that flies around Columbia Heights that I occasionally spot from the window.“

“3 Reasons. Food was plentiful and so good!, the owners super friendly and the location was perfect!😍“

“We've been here a few times now and the food has been incredible every time. The quality is really good, the sizes are on the larger side, and the price is affordable during a time where nothing is affordable.
I'm a fan of the burritos but their pupusas are a must as well. Would definitely recommend and we will be going back.“

“I came to this cozy Vietnamese restaurant primarily to enjoy a warm, flavorful bowl of pho, but I ended up leaving with a sense of belonging and being part of a welcoming family. Omg, this place was unlike any other I've experienced. Its strong sense of community, along with the caring and a strong Mom made the pho here special and memorable.“

“I’ve been eating at this place since 2023, and it is definitely the definition of “Comfort food”. There are many Pho places in DC, but this one has the best taste! The Pho has always been delicious, with a consistent taste and good amount of meat. The dishes are varied and served fast but without missing a detail. The prices are also very good.“

“😋Outstanding food! Everything was amazing!“

“Best sandwich I’ve ever had. I got the turkey and Brie. You can see the cranberry sauce/relish brewing right there in a big stainless steel pot on the stove right behind the cashier. Everything was warm and melty and delicious.

Great ingredients. Friendly staff. Good music playing. Fast service. Chill little tucked away spot. First time here so I can’t speak to rest of the menu but it’s gotta be great. Five stars.“

“$2 Crazy Hour is absolutely insane! They have a great selection of sushi and various appetizers. The sushi is the same high quality as their dinner service ,the fish pieces are huge and incredibly fresh. The alcohol are 50% off, and the selection is massive,they're not stingy like other places that only offer one or two brands. It's a super friendly restaurant, and you absolutely cannot find a better deal in town!“

“We love the food ?“

“All I can say is .... wonderful pho at this restaurant. Definitely reconmend!.“

“My recent experience at Olive Garden was truly exceptional, surpassing my own expectations. Because of the warm and attentive hospitality of Brittany, the my mother and I now consider this our Olive Garden home and encourage anyone reading this to visit this genuinely cozy location.“

“Epic SmokeHouse – Arlington, VA Overall Rating: 8/10 Parking lot upgrades at the Pentagon brought G-FORCE to Arlington, but we didn’t expect to stumble upon BBQ royalty just a mile down the road at Epic SmokeHouse. Let’s just say… the name fits. We kicked things off with the App Sampler—and every bite hit like a flavor freight train. Smoked wings so tender they felt like they’d just left the hog pen—crispy skin, juicy interior, absolute perfection. Burnt ends? Melt-in-your-mouth with just enough sauce to whisper "I’m fancy" without screaming it. And the Kalua Pig Rolls… I still don’t know what’s in them, but I want to shake the chef’s hand (or hug him). Then came the showstopper: Brisket Poutine. Hand-cut fries crisped to golden excellence, smothered in rich brown butter gravy, melty cheese curds, and that sweet smoky brisket—topped with green onions and sesame seeds for that crunch-and-pop finale. This dish is dangerous… the kind of comfort food that makes you forget what day it is. The House Secret Burnt Mac rolled in hot in a mini skillet—smoky, cheesy, and just saucy enough to coat every bite without drowning it. Balanced, bold, and addicting. Don’t sleep on the Collard Greens either—just the right amount of flavor, a lil’ bit of spice but not too bold. A solid side that holds its own. Final Verdict: If you’re in Arlington for business, BBQ, or just breathing—get to Epic SmokeHouse. And if you're lucky, G-FORCE might’ve just made the parking lot a little smoother on your way in. #PaintAndPlateCrew #SupportLocal #EpicEats #BBQNearThePentagon #HIREAVET #GFORCEApproved #8OutOf10 #WINWITHVSB #PAINTCORPS“

“This tiny hole in the wall is amazing. The food is rich and delicious. I have eaten Italian across the globe and rarely come across a more balanced and delicious dish. Did I mention the portions are huge? The servers are so nice and the restaurant has an eclectic vibe. I cannot recommend it enough.“

“Always a great time at Kura! Always bring my daughter, she loves the Robot helping with drinks! I'm not some sushi connoisseur but I like it and I've never gotten sick eating it. They always have specials and keep sending me $5 n $10 coupons for future visits! So I'll keep coming back.
Oh... Reserve your spot ahead of time on App! Comes in clutch when they busy!“

“I have been going to this place for the past four years and I can say it is by far my favorite pho restaurant! You know a place is good when they only have one type of dish on the menu! The atmosphere is perfect for a quick bite, most people are in and out, it does not claim to be anything fancy - just simple hearty food. Be aware that this is a CASH ONLY establishment, I always come with a $20 bill and that is always enough to cover my meal + tip. I would recommend the eye round steak & brisket pho. Always one of my favorites to cheer me up. There is free parking outside of this establishment. The manager is clear, straight to the point, and will get you your meal quick and efficiently! Give this place a try if you are in the area.“

“This is a wonderful, low-key restaurant in the heart of Courthouse serving amazing Indian-Nepalese food. I ordered a vegetarian Thali and the curries tasted very fresh and homemade. The thali also comes with a good quantity of rice and fresh naan all for a very reasonable price. While there is no seating inside the restaurant, there are places to seat outside in the plaza. Overall, this was a great experience for a quick takeout spot and I will definitely be back!“

“Great Service!!! Lobster Roll was a nice segue from a regular fish sandwich.“

“Huge portions! You get potatoes with every platter, they were over cooked for my taste. First timers will be a little confused as to the order of things but the staff will quickly get you sorted out. Nice outside dining area, birds are a little aggressive.“

“Great servers! This was a great surprise to find this place so far south from Maine.“

“Since Eastern Gourmet has opened it has become our go-to for great Chinese takeout. We have ordered an extensive amount of the menu and there aren't any dishes that haven't blown us away. The food is amazing, the service is attentive, and the prices are quite reasonable for the quality and portion sizes.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
As a keen Panera Bread customer across the States, I’ve visited many locations, but this one at Dipont Circle truly stands out. From the moment you walk in, the staff greet you with warm, friendly smiles and provide remarkably efficient service, making the experience feel effortless. The store itself is impeccably clean, with a welcoming atmosphere that’s perfect whether you’re popping in for a quick bite or planning to sit and relax.

The outdoor seating is a real highlight—beautiful tables bathed in sunlight, ideal for enjoying a meal while taking in the surroundings. The food is consistently cooked to perfection and presented with care, showing attention to detail in every dish. It’s clear that the team takes pride in their work, from the friendly service to the inviting environment and the quality of the food.

Overall, this Panera Bread location exemplifies everything you could want in a visit: great service, clean and comfortable spaces, lovely outdoor seating, and delicious, well-presented food. Truly a standout experience—well done to the team!“

“ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE!!! No I'm not employed here! I have to limit myself to once every other week. After being in the restaurant industry for 25 years I DEFINITELY respect this places consistency. Try it out.“

“Great sandwiches! Today I enjoyed the grilled chicken burrito. It was outstanding! Nice and fresh! The beef and chicken cheesesteaks are also delicious!“

“I love Panera the sandwiches and the salads. Yesterday my hubby and I ate lunch���“

“Very good food, with the best flavor in the area!!“

“Great waffle with an amazing sausage, egg and cheese sandwich! The atmosphere is so nice inside, and the chill music was a great touch. If you like apple juice, try the sparkling apple juice! It’s so good! Also the workers are so nice. Such a great breakfast spot in DC 😊“

“This Panera has been a lifesaver with return to office. There aren’t many places on my commute route that are open and able to prepare lunch items at 7am. If I haven’t had time to pack lunch I’ll place an order as I’m leaving the house and it’s ready to grab by the time I get there. I just wish they had more/better vegetarian options.“

“Me and my group of friends always come here to eat whenever we hangout.This spot is always our top go to place to go whenever we’re hungry and bored.The sushi here is amazing, especially the chicken teryaki rolls.The workers are so nice to us , and the place is overall amazing.However , I don’t really recommend online ordering.Sometimes the sushi will get smushed, it’s better to just order in person.But this place is honestly the best im genuinely impressed , the place is so quiet and calm whenever you enter its a great place to just chill.Me and my friends love it here!“

“Hands down the best chicken soup I’ve ever had 🎉 A true supporter and fan now after trying at the IDDBA show! 💕“

“Crowded. I had an email for 20% off pick 2 which is what I ordered but they did not honor it. They said it was online only. The print was so tiny I didn't even see that!!! We had a large party that day and it was a sale to them! What difference does it make how one orders it!! I even have their Panera card for these sales. To no avail. Makes me mad and it's not fair at all“
