12 Best Soup near Blue Springs

“I had such a great experience at Olive Garden! From the moment we walked in, everything felt welcoming. The restaurant was spotless — nice, clean, and well-kept — which always makes a difference when you’re dining out.

On our previous visit, Ashley absolutely made the evening with her friendly and attentive service.

This time, we came back today and were lucky enough to have Audrey as our waitress — and she was every bit as amazing. Audrey is a genuinely pleasant, personable, and hard-working server who clearly takes pride in what she does. She greeted us with a warm smile, made us feel right at home, and stayed on top of everything without ever being intrusive. Her kindness and professionalism really stood out, and it made the whole experience feel even more special.

The food was delicious (love that never-ending soup, salad, and breadsticks!), and everything came out hot, fresh, and exactly as ordered on both visits. But the service is what keeps this location feeling top-tier. Whether it was Ashley before or Audrey today, the staff here truly goes above and beyond.

Jeremy whom is a manager was so kind and genuine. I could talk to him for days about life and projects but alas there’s work to be done!

All in all, another wonderful experience. Big thanks to Audrey, Ashley, and the entire Olive Garden team for consistently making each visit enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back!“

“I couldn't figure out how to order delivery through the website so I called the store directly. The lady who helped me was very professional and courteous and helped me get my order placed. The prices are fair and the portions are large, this is my neighborhood Chinese take out spot.“

“I came to Panera to enjoy some soup on a cold night, and Mr. Richard made the experience even better! He provided excellent service, offered me an option that wasn’t even on the menu, and was sweet, he even gave me a little treat to go with my soup. Thanks to him, I left with a warm smile and a warm meal.“

“Wow! What a great lunch. Chicken salad is the centerpiece here, and it's done perfectly. It's not the heavy, greasy, swimming in mayo stuff you're used to. It's light, flavorful, and available in many different versions. Get it on bread, crossant, or just a big scoop. The broccoli salad is great with a light, sweet yogurt-based dressing. We heard that the pimento cheese was good, so we got that to go. This may become a favorite spot!“

“Where to begin….. from the moment my wife and I walked in, we were met with an angel by the name of Kristen, by far the best darn server I’ve ever had in my life. She went out of her way at every step 👟 to ensure we had the most excellent experience at the Olive Garden. She was charming and delightful, and her grace was unmatched. We were waited on hand and foot, feeling like royalty 🤴 in our Olive Garden booth. We split the lovely boocatini pasta with the ten cheese marinara, and oh! What a sensation. The breadsticks and salad never fail to bring a smile to face, but even better was Kristen’s impeccable service. When we arrive back at this Olive Garden, which we no doubt will, we will be requesting service from the wonderful, outstanding Kristen. I wish I could perhaps in another life give the service a million stars ⭐️. I provided the following photos below. The meal was so delicious I was so excited I didn’t take a photograph until after I devoured the whole darn thing. Whoops 😅 silly me 👍“

“food was great when we got it we did the never ending pasta and it took the server quite a while to bring us refills on pasta breadsticks drinks etc so we finally just gave up and left because we were clearly weren't getting refills on any more food after the second time“

“7/2/25- it's been since beginning of civid since I last ate here. We popped in, I brought my service dog lucky and my friend who has never had food as good as theirs. Still my favorite Chinese food even after all these years and this place is still run by the same family. You guys are wonderful! Please don't ever go out of business 🙏

2020-My favorite place to order Chinese for the past 20 years. Only problem is when new cooks make things taste different than the usual cooks but its pretty rare this happens.“

“The food is always amazing. The staff is friendly. The prices are great. Rae’s coming to Independence has been great for my breakfast adventures.“

“Different family owns it now. It is not the same Wing Lee restaurant.2020 Ordered Orange Chicken and Half of it was large pieces of bean curd to look like it was full of Chicken. Cathay Express is so much better. Do not waste your money here 🤬“

“I went to Panera Bread this morning and accidentally placed my order through the app at the wrong location. Totally my faultI should have been paying closer attention. When I got to the store, Alexis went above and beyond to help me. She made sure I got my order without having to drive all the way to the other location, and she handled the situation with kindness and professionalism. Alexis truly turned my mistake into a positive experience. We need more people like her, she made my day so much easier, and I’m really grateful for her help!“

“They have great outdoor seating options and dogs are allowed. The food is always good quality and you can easily sub out bread you don't like for different bread on your sandwiches. Bread bowls with soup are excellent and they have a cheaper priced meal option on the self check kiosk called value duets many don't know about. It is significantly cheaper and you get half a sandwich and soup for under $9.“

“Enjoyed our lunch… clean & food was fresh & delicious!“
