50 Best Soup near East Rutherford

“Not even exaggerating: this was one of my favorite dining experiences to date! Had a surprise birthday party for a friend in one of the private back rooms, and the staff was so accomodating, helpful, and friendly. Our waiter, Chris, was especially awesome: he was super sociable and patient with any questions we had about the food, the hotpot process, and splitting the check. The energy of this place was so warm and inviting- anyone looking to host a night out with friends: rest assured, you will have a great time and memorable experience here. I haven't even started talking about the food.

The wagyu beef is absolutely worth the cost. There are more affordable items on the menu and they are also yummy but guess what? Everything felt priced so accordingly that it is 100% worth spending that extra money on those special menu items. The thin wagyu melts so perfectly into the delicious broths, the thought of it will keep me up at night. Treat yourself and get that meat!!

And my god. The broths. Holy cow. I got the spicy broth, and it was the perfect level of heat* that, combined with the huge selection of sauces, made the proteins and noodles DIVINE... THE RICE CAKES TOO omg.. The tofu, fish balls, and mushrooms were all also really well sourced, just really premium products priced very modestly for how quality they all were. *note: be ready for the peppers that have the slightly numbing/tingling effect- not on a Szechuan level, but a nice and perfect build that makes each ingredient have a beautiful taste profile.

We had the table with personal pots/induction stoves, so all the proteins/veggies we shared, but we would also pass along samples of the other broths to each other, and I wish I had ordered my own bowl of the seasonal vietnamese pho broth too because the one small bowl I sampled was heavenly.

I will definitely be back again to try the drinks, they looked fantastic and the ambience of the bar felt so nice.

Also, just realized I was too engulfed by the good food and fun with friends that I forgot to take pics. It was that good man“

“This is one of my favorite places! The sandwiches and soups are always fresh and delicious, the restaurant is clean, and the staff are consistently friendly and welcoming.

A special shoutout to Diego, the manager. He's always on the floor, working hard and making sure everyone has a great experience. He's incredibly helpful and truly cares about both the customers and the team.

And don't leave without trying the cookies and pastries—they're absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this place if you're looking for great food and excellent service.“

“amazing! can you please open a location in Burlington VT? like tomorrow?“

“very authentic Chinese restaurant. like the decor. service is 👍“

“One of the best Palestinian food around 10 stars“

“My daughter chose this for a birthday dinner. The food was absolutely amazing and the service was fantastic. Audrey was our server. She was extremely knowledgeable of the menu, made great recommendations, she was there when we needed her without being there too often. I would highly recommend Rosella Sushi. Can’t wait to get back to New York City and return for a meal here. It also makes it extra cool when Chef Jeff is wearing a Florida Gator hat!“

“A neighborhood gem! Very clean and well taken care of. Atmosphere is nice and welcoming. Not too noisy. I love their Sushi - ingredients are always fresh and they give a generous portion. Michi, the manager, is very kind!!

Updates: They just started serving Japanese Curry Rice! It was so tasty.“

“Good People - Great Food - just Go! Food so Fresh!“

“A classic ramen spot. i love the service and the dining experience. i go in between this place when i want to bring someone to experience dining differently or if i want a more social place i take them to ippudo. Cant go wrong with coming here hope to be back soon!“

“Been wanting to try this place forever, finally got around to it on a cloudy, chillier summer day where I wanted something warm, and boy am I glad I did. This place has the best value for legitimate soup in NYC. I'm not talking your watered down soups with canned vegetables from some the grab and go lunch spots with hot bars in the area, I'm talking quality broth and ingredients. I got the Lobster Bisque, which is excellent on its own, but for $14 - the large size, you also get a delicious chunk of baguette, an apple and a piece of chocolate. Terrific value. Come to the counter prepared, it was a quick handoff, and I will certainly be back.“

“The waiters in white coats are busy behind the counter, the menu has not changed for decades, and even the lighting seems to have remained in the last century - this is the old New York I want.“

“Wonderful thai restaurant — with a full service bar, really clean and nice interior, with tons of seating.

The food is always wonderful — the pad Thai with chicken is great. The staff is very welcoming, providing excellent service!

A great, easy Friday evening dinner spot.“

“Every time I come and eat here during my lunch hour, they take really good care of me. The Service is amazing. They take care of me right away. The wait time is super low and they are so attentive. I highly recommend this place for anyone who loves a good sushi and Ramen.“

“Very good well done food.“

“Fresh and delicious. We loved the starters and the Beef main. Fun place.“

“this place is amazing; the food the service and the atmosphere….its jus sooo good and fresh and i appreciate that they are in my neighborhood

fany and phyo have both helped me and they are kind and friendly and knowledgeable

mikado, you’re fortunate to have both fany and phyo on your side

give this place a try you won’t regret“

“Great value for lunch omakase in the UES. The $49 lunch set comes with an appetizer, 9 pieces of nigiri, miso soup, and dessert, which felt very reasonable for the quality and amount of food.

The fish quality was good, especially the o-toro and salmon belly. I personally prefer a more traditional/simple style of sushi where high-quality ingredients are served with minimal seasoning, and some pieces here had a bit more toppings or flavor combinations than I usually like. That said, everything was well prepared and enjoyable.

The caramel ice cream dessert was surprisingly delicious and a very nice ending to the meal. Overall, a solid and satisfying lunch omakase with great value.“

“Just finished eating here and this place is amazing. We ordered the Sesame Chicken and Young Chow Fried Rice. The Sesame Chicken was delicious as it wasn’t too sweet, but instead hits right on the spot. The Fried Rice tasted really good. The waiters were pretty nice and it wasn’t crowded when we came so we only had to wait like 10 minutes for the food. The atmosphere is very decorated and clean which adds to the authentic Chinese restaurant look. Overall, I recommend this place and if you’re in the area, try it out!“

“Listen, I love when a place makes you feel good from the moment you walk in the door. These brothers are truly hospitable and cool. The food was very tasty and the smoothie was amazing!! I had such a pleasurable experience. So much so that I returned the next day!!!

You must have the burger with blue cheese as well as the Choco-latte smoothie!!! The vibe and the energy is just right! It’s an intimate place that can maybe fit 6 people as you order, however, they treated me like so had been there a thousand times before!

Enjoy your time there!!! Tell them Chase sent you!!! Boom! Yes Jamaica!!! Did I mention that these amazing guys are pure Jamaican? Well now you know!!! IRIE!!!!“

“Chola is easily the best Indian restaurant in all of Manhattan and Northern Jersey. My wife and I drive in bi-weekly for their awesome food and ever changing menu. The staff is incredible and friendly, we've gotten to know them all and consider them personal friends at this point. Any time we can, we take friends and family to Chola. It's is the best!“

“Okdongsik serves one of the most memorable Korean meals I’ve had. Their pork bone broth is exceptionally clean, rich, and deeply comforting, showcasing just how much flavor can come from a deceptively simple dish. Paired with what is, in my opinion, the best kimchi and mandu I’ve ever tasted, it becomes an unforgettable meal. The minimalist menu, meticulous preparation, and focus on quality ingredients make this a standout destination in Koreatown and a must-visit for anyone interested in authentic Korean cuisine.“

“i went & i lovedddd the guy working there!!! he was so funny & it just immediately felt like i was a regular, despite having been there for the first time. the sauce options were CRAZYYYY and yummy as hell. the only thing i would change is that the wings were slightly burnt on the outside, but it wasn’t unbearable to deal with. the sauce is what made the wings soooo good“

“my favorite vietnamese restaurant in the area—this place has gotten me through for YEARS. pho broth is so flavorful and the staff are really kind. recently brought a friend here who has a lot of allergies and they double checked with the kitchen and gave specific recommendations, honestly the most accommodating restaurant ive been to.“

“This is such a lovely spot. I first tried this spot many years ago. There used to be a Polish restaurant one block south of here, Neptune. We would go there and then come to brodo and grab a broth to go, often for my dad in the VA hospital up on 23 St. few places would sell you just broth.

I absolutely love the Hearth broth and you can add the ginger turmeric, which I highly recommend. I also ordered and tried the beef broth with ginger and turmeric, it was fine. Oddly enough, the hearth had a richer, beefier flavor than the beef did. It’s just a heartier flavor, I highly recommend it. I could easily pop over to enjoy a cup of broth in place of my daily coffee, it’s a similarly comfortable cup that travels well.“

“The porterhouse for 2 was what we went with for my girlfriend's birthday dinner and it was phenomenal! The service was great and the ambiance even better. We were also watching the Knicks beat the Spurs in game 2 to end a perfect night! Will be back soon!“

“The food is consistently fresh and tasty. So happy to have an excellent Szechwan restaurant in a neighborhood where good Chinese cuisine is sorely lacking.“

“Surprised to find decent Xinjiang food in Manhattan.

Ding ding fried noodles were quite authentic, just a bit salty. Lamb pilaf wasn’t greasy, which I liked. Lamb skewers were tender and not gamey.

Service was okay but a bit inexperienced — had to remind for water.

Overall, good food, service could be better.“

“Well, this is a special place, don't you believe? Let's see.I was walking around looking for a place to eat and saw this deli , mind you that when you see a line outside a deli and customers willing wait in the cold for food , you know the food is going to be off the hook ! In line a sweet man was telling the history of the deli and how is the best town and anything I choose will definitely make me happy, another customer arrives and tells me to how much he loves it ! I knew I had found a gem that needs to be shared , because customer's are raving for it , the employees and owner sweetest guy very patient in waiting for me to decide what I wanted I even bought few things brought from Italy while I waited for My delicious 🤤 Little Nicky sandwich 🥪 which not only is so big I ate it for lunch and dinner 🍽️ is the best sandwich I've had in years ! I appreciate the stories of when it was established. I care so much for the excellent customer service and the way they run the place makes you feel like you step into a home! I'm definitely looking forward to what to try next!!! Sorry for the no picture of the sandwich, I ate the whole thing 🤣 don't forget grab freshly made mozzarella!!!!!“

“awesome food... great service.“

“The best restaurant ever delicious food,sweet service“

“I really enjoyed the Salmon Poke bowl and Edamame and then I went back for their Spicy Salmon Rice Crackers and Salmon Avocado Roll the next day! Their staff is so kind and attentive. Great way to end an evening with sushi at one of their tables outside.“

“Only soup I eat is split pea. Not everybody can make it. Best ever next to grandma. ❤️“

“Food is okay, service is good, atmosphere is pleasant, though can get rather loud.
They have decent beer and cider on tap. Bathrooms are a bit cramped but useable. Menu has a decent number of choices on it and is reasonably priced for the area. Staff are helpful.“

“Great food, nice services, good amenities.“

“Amazing lobster snd crab rolls! So authentic….Makes you think you can smell the sea air!“

“The food was delicious! My fiancé and I enjoyed every dish, the service, and the ambiance! We will be back.“

“I Love the Glorious Juice! So refreshing and good for me!!“

“Wonderful owners make amazing Thai food. I have been to many in the area. This was hands down the best.“

“I would say this is a solid 3.5 stars. Service is fast, food is edible, but not something I would crave or after eating felt satiated.

I’m vegetarian so I got the veggie bowl which was kale, broccoli, picked veggies and sweet potatoes with quinoa. There was too much quinoa in relation to veggies. I did eat everything and left most of the quinoa.
Veggies tasted ok and everything was seasoned well.

If you are in a pinch and need a fast healty-ish lunch, I think this place could work. I have been here twice in the year and a half I have lived in DUMBO.“

“Dry good food, fast service“

“good food and lot's of variety to choose from“

“Delicious soups and reasonably priced!“

“Perfect lobster roll ...so tasty 😋“

“One of my go to’s in the city since ‘06. This isn’t your modern day scene, rather old world NYC meets Italy. Never disappoints. And the staff 💯!!!“

“Came in for lunch after a very busy morning at work, and, if I'm being honest, with a minor hangover. Everything about this place fixed me right up. I felt like I went to lunch at my tia's. The ropa veja I got tasted exactly like the one I grew up eating. Comfort food and comforting vibes.“

“The Drunken Noodles were packed with flavor, and the Pineapple Fried Rice was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and perfectly prepared.
The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. Great food, great service, and a wonderful atmosphere.
I highly recommend Five Star Thai to anyone looking for authentic and flavorful Thai food.“

“Ottima qualità del cibo Aragosta ottima“

“Had such a great dinner at Sushi Dairo. The sushi was incredibly fresh and delicious, and the chef was so kind and welcoming. Also love that it’s an easy walk-in spot—no hassle, just great food and a relaxed vibe. Will definitely be back!“

“This place stands the test of time with its reliable quality. Staff offers a friendly welcome to all visitors. The menu balances delicious options, fresh ingredients, and attractive presentation. Despite size constraints, this place stays busy. You should try their complete selection.“

“One of the best Vietnamese restaurants we’ve been to! The food is always fresh, authentic, and absolutely delicious. The pho has a rich, flavorful broth with perfectly cooked noodles and tender meat. Every dish we tried was amazing, and the portions were generous. The service is excellent every time—friendly, attentive, and welcoming staff who make you feel right at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for outstanding Vietnamese cuisine and exceptional service. We’ll definitely be back!“
