5 Best Soup near Westminster

“Very good food!“

“On a cool and sleepy early spring Thursday, we ere the 1st customers for lunch, not having been here for most of a decade, since before the pandemic. That Ying Thai even exists speaks to the stability and staying power of the business.

We really were wowed. The lunch specials are very cost-effective with portion sizes that represent exceeding good value. Spice can be moderated to taste (they will ask you to rate 1 to 5, how spicy) and service was rock solid by the charming waitress. The dozen or so lunch specials on the menu, all are priced the same, with a small variable depending on the protein you select (tofu, chicken, shrimp or beef).

The physical space is small (we can easily imagine the dozen small tables being full) and parking is quite limited right nearby (tiny municipal paid parking lot) but this inconvenience is well worth it. We definitely plan to come back.“

“Had not been to Olive Garden in years and was honestly surprised by the overall quality of the food. It was much better than expected. The Lasagna Fritta appetizer, basically deep fried pieces of lasagna served with marinara sauce, was surprisingly tasty and a great start to the meal. The soups were all very flavorful, though a bit on the salty side. The salad was the weak point for me since it barely had any dressing or seasoning. The famous breadsticks were also disappointing and tasted a little stale despite supposedly being fresh from the oven. The main dishes were decent overall, nothing particularly memorable, but certainly not bad. Service was very good though, and our waiter was friendly, attentive, and stayed on top of everything throughout the meal. One thing that really stood out was the $6 take-home meals, which ended up being a great value and made for an easy lunch the next day.“

“Thank you Panera Westminster for good food and good service. Over the years since you've opened I've enjoyed an early breakfast on Black Friday with my kids, an enjoyable lunch or dinner with friends and family and picked up bagels for the sports team.“

“We have been going to steeped tea since 2021 and it has been amazing every single time. The food, the tea, the atmosphere- all perfect. We have been to valentines there and we even got to go to their murder mystery tea- our group dressed up as the characters from Clue- it was a hoot! I wish they were open during the week though- our weekends get so crammed that we don’t get to visit as often as we would like.“
