49 Best Soup near East York

“ordered combo 3 the chicken fried rice and fried chicken were good! surprised by the big portions in a takeout container. fried rice was just yummy, not salty like other Chinese places. The fried chicken was great too, just the right crunch. I'd recommend it if you're in the east York area :) the space was small, looks like a family run shop“

“Food is fresh and delivered quickly and still hot.“

“Micheal and assume his wife run this family joint. They treat everyone like family. Ordered 4 chicken salad and souvlaki dinners and what a good job on food. The picture of the water is symbol of their heart. I forgot to ask for water for the kids and they give the kid a bottle and say don’t worry about it. Michael saw my kids and he brought them two bag of fries while we waited for our food.

This is not a one off act of kindness, a young guy was about to leave and they packed up some soup for him to try.

DON’T go expecting free stuff you cheapskate!!! Go because they are good folks producing quality food and it shows.

TIP well!!!“

“Soup and wraps are amazing! Bursting with flavour! They never disappoint 🥰“

“My girlfriend and I recently visited this restaurant and had a great experience. The staff was polite and accommodating, and the service was excellent. I ordered the rare beef soup, and she initially chose the seafood soup, but later decided she wasn’t in the mood for it. The staff kindly replaced it with the same beef soup I had, which she ended up enjoying.

The shrimp roll we shared was delicious, and when it came time to pay, we were pleasantly surprised that they didn’t charge us for the returned seafood soup. I mentioned leaving a Google review, and they even offered us a complimentary juice (normally $7–9).

Overall, we enjoyed the food and service and will definitely return. Pro tip: mention a Google review, and you might score a free juice too!“

“Absolutely loved this place. Food and service was top notch. Fresh bread, variety of meats and everything tasted amazing. I usually don’t enjoy lamb in Canada, and this is the first time I loved it. Take a look at the photos and videos, I don’t need to say no more.

Kid-friendliness: They provided high chair ☺️“

“The food was fresh and delicious. They have daily specials. I also had a very good smoothie that was made on the spot, with fresh ingredients and real fruit. The place is spotless, with the space well used, and the attention is very friendly.“

“We had the spicy pork bulgogi on a sizzling platter and seafood noodle soup and we are stuffffffffed. Also hot take but the california rolls are weirdly good. Cozy place too with a cute front room. Our server was very friendly and kind too. :)“

“Posted my original review five years ago and this place still gets 5 stars.
Cozy local restaurant with polite staff.
I really recommend the Dynamite chicken paired together with their radish side dish. There's something about the tarty radish that bring out the flavours and the crunch to the chicken.
I also enjoyed the beef bone soup really refreshing to have low sodium witg the option to add it myself.

All the best HanOak!

First review (2019):
First time here. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, like visiting family. They have specials for students and a well rounded menu. I had the Fried Chicken with hot and sour soy sauce. The chicken was crispy to perfection with sides and a cute star shaped rice.
Highly recommend and will definitely come back.“

“Great food, service, and atmosphere.“

A Caribbean Staple Of Rich Fullness, Fulled To The Brim!!

Steaming Hot & Fresh That Will Warm To Body & Heart Especially During The Winter Months.
Chef’s Kiss!“

“This is objectively the most authentic Japanese ramen place you can probably find in Toronto. Number one many of the stuffs are Japanese who speak Japanese. The ramen has the classical texture that you would find in Japan. The portion is somewhat small though.“

“Soup It Up has always delivered exactly what I want from it: ruthlessly efficient service and unpretentious soup and sandwiches. Nothing more. Nothing less. Looking at earlier reviews, the complaints seem to be focused on the decline in quality over time. I've only been coming to Soup It up for the last two years, but haven't noticed any decline at all in that time. The sandwiches are particularly good value.There are better lunch options in the PATH, but these ratings are largely unfair in my view. I for one will continue to proudly and shamelessly SOUP IT UP on my lunch breaks.“

“The food here is so delicious, just like ancient gluttonous food, the food Nan eats😻🫶, Zhongguo𡿨 don’t lie to Zhongguo people, the service is all uninspiring😻👍old and young b beautiful horse riding lion Zhongguo people,😻👍👍 I’ll definitely give it a try, it’s the Chinese version of Guan Shi.“

“best place to eat soup in Toronto.“

“Food was delicious!! Very friendly, amazing service! Must try…“

“Good services. Freshly made“

“Thank you for a generous big bowl full of tasty, nutritious real food after travelling a long way. Friendly staff. Just what we needed landing in an unfamiliar city. Recommended. I wish you well in your business.

Vegetarian options: Big generous serve of tasty vegetarian food. Lots of variety and choice is up to you.“

“Amazing salads!! Sooo yummy and amazing customer service!!“

“If you really like fresh Japanese food, that is the place.“

“Finally! A salad oriented restaurant on the east end. Creative menu and charming decor too!! I had the Caesar salad and it was really great!“

“Love this little spot in the corner of the food court! You can order ahead with ritual too which can save you a ton of time if you know what you’re looking for. Try to come before 1pm, as they don’t tend to replace soup options as they run out after the lunch rush.There’s no dining in the restaurant as it’s just a takeout place attached to regular food court seating.

Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian soup options!“

“Mapo Gamjatang has the best pork bone soup in toronto. The food is delicious, but what makes this restaurant even more amazing are the waitresses' customer service skills. Their customer service is beyond amazing, and they always give me a very pleasant experience every time I visit. If you are looking for authentic korean pork bone soup, go to Mapo Gamjatang.“

“best place to eat soup in Toronto.“

“The place looks sketchy initially but dared to try out their food after seeing all the reviews. Glad, I did! One of the best banh mi I’ve had in my life - bread was crispy and pork belly was so tender. Would recommend to friends and family.“

“Really good food. Will definitely come back again.“

“Oct2024: third visit, and fond of the beef dry noodles, extra spicy and crispy pork bun. The special, marinated pork belly on rice with a braised egg is good too.

Have tried several of the side dishes and liked all of them: three delicacies in tofu, tofu with preserved egg, kelp salad, wood fungus salad, spicy beef tripe, crispy bun with pork and siu mai.

The noodles and sides are a good size serving for single diners. I think a noodle dish plus one side would be filling for most diners.

Rice noodles are also offered if you don't want wheat based noodles.

They also have lunch specials between 11:30am-3:30pm.

Seating is limited and austere, but service and food was excellent.

Not many places offer dry noodles and I thought this version was quite good and a decent serving size, will be back.

Vegetarian options: There are tofu dishes, vegetable dishes and dry noodle dishes made without meat.

The dry noodles sauce is made without meat or animal products and ingredients are listed in the menu: sesame paste, cilantro, green onion, sour green bean, dried radish.

Parking: Plenty of free parking, the restaurant is located in an office building surrounded by a parking lot.“

“Used to order from here via UberEats during the lockdown. The pho always tasted good, a deep beef flavour, very rich. They used to have this delicious fried rice dish cooked with crab fat. I don’t see it on the menu, but if you ever see it, it’s a must-order!“

“My family and I are previous owners of 2 Mr.Sub stores in Toronto and let me tell you, this store is excellent. I remember growing up making sandwiches for people and just having a great time with customers because we were in the community and everyone knew us; why am I sharing this? Because for the first time in a very long time I felt that moment again just through eating a sandwich today at this exact location. I ordered through skip the dishes and not only did they get my order correct down to the very last item and request, but they were not stingy and the bread was not old or frozen like some of these owners do to save costs. As a previous owner, I understand all too well the struggles of being a franchisee with a Mr.Sub, and everywhere I go I see many Mr.Subs failing because of poor ownership and it’s really sad. This place is doing it right and they deserve 5 stars. Who ever the owner is should be proud that they are one of the last of a dying breed; a quality Mr.Sub where you can feel nostalgic about enjoying your childhood favourites without having to deal with rude customer service or terrible food practice. Kudos to you good sir/ma’am.“

“good food.. friendly staff..“

“Hands down the best BUN BO HUE in the city. The combination of spices and spiciness in the soup base really hit the spot. I substituted the beef shank and pork bone for lean rare beef. Been coming here for decades and will continue to come back for this soup, which is only served on weekends. Service was quick and easy.“

“This is a nice little spot to get some bento box and meals. I got their Spicy teriyaki bowl meal and the seafood tofu soup. It came in this cute adorable box that had their logo on it. I love Corgis. My only set back was that the feature picture shows a lot more broccoli with my dish and I was left very little. The Seafood tofu soup was ok and it was a bit messy. It had a few shrimps and squid in there but mostly tofu and the tofu would fall apart. Overall I enjoyed my meals and I would come back and try another dish.“

“they did a Great job at the corn festival“

“Awesome food. Courteous service. Great value for traditional and tasty foods.“

“The food was tasty, fresh and delicious. They were spiced generously and very flavourful. At first glance the portions seemed small but after eating, our party of 4 was very full and satisfied. Dishes ordered: Dum-Pukht chicken biryani, hirayali chicken, dry manchurian paneer, hot & sour soup, aloo gobhi masala, schezwan rice (spicy crowd favourite), nest rasamalai(this was assembled table-side), and the sour amaretto (this wasn’t as strong as I’d like).“

“雲吞及水餃都係萬錦，列治文山同行水準之上。招呼在疫情期間也可算是上佳，值得推介!“

“A bowl of rice noodles and a plate of grilled skewers, two highlights:

1) Satisfied with meat noodles. A spoonful of noodles with a piece of meat left in the end is better than eating dry noodles with the meat gone first.

2) The spiciness is appropriate, not some weird spiciness that makes you feel uncomfortable after eating, but the kind that feels more natural after eating.

Worthy of praise“

“More of an eatery vibe , the variety app plate is highly recommended and the Muhammara is just to die for!

The Kefta was a bit too gamey so if that's not your thing... The pulled chicken was lose although very generous amount and super healthy cooking so ... Depends

The shesh tavuk is probably the chicken winner!

Would come back for casual healthy lunches for sure“

“I’ve been here a few times, and I love the steak & frites, love the creative mocktails, and the atmosphere is really nice and chill. If you’re on a first date, it’s a great place and location. I wanted to give shoutout to Suzanne and Dan, really amazing people with wonderful personalities and of course service. Great job gang!!! 🫡🫡🫡“

“I had the red peas soup for the first time it was delicious,well done I have found my place see you soon.“

“I can’t believe it took me this long to try this gem! The food here is incredible. I had the XLB and sesame noodles—both were outstanding. The dumplings were packed with flavourful soup, and the noodles had that perfect chew you only get with fresh, handmade dishes. I learned that everything here is crafted by hand, and you can truly taste the difference. The service was warm and welcoming, and the place was spotless. The staff were having their meal while we were there, and the baos they were enjoying looked mouthwatering. I’ll definitely be coming back to try the rest of the menu.“

“Great franchised restaurant specializing in boiling hot soup noodle and braised chicken rice. No beer (or any alcohol) to kill the heat but there are other drinks available.This location seems to be more generous with their portions but the flavours seem lighter. Still good.Unfortunately there is only one single stall unisex washroom, so sometimes you'll have to line up.Good service, nice ladies.“

“It is difficult to beat a bubbling pot full of Yunnan style rice noodle (云南米线) on a cold evening. We shook the rain off of our jackets, sat down and ordered ourselves their classic: served with the noodles separately from the broth so we get to customise how soft or firm the bite of the rice noodle will be. Once served, we warmed up straight away.

The broth comes piping hot and feels pretty much like having a one-person serving of hot pot. Indeed, there are side dishes that complement the noodles including a selection of meats, vegetables, quail eggs and tofu which require time to cook in the hot broth.

Our other order was the rice noodles in lamb broth which had spices and enoki mushrooms. It was a bit on the heavier side in comparison but equally delicious, especially for a cold evening.

Their menu had plenty of other interesting dishes, and at fairly reasonable prices this restaurant is in our opinion worth multiple visits.“

“The food is excellent and cooked to perfection and the portions are big enough to fill you up and the soup is excellent you have to try it I've been to other locations but this one is the best one for service and the quality of food“

“I love this place! It reminds me of the food from my hometown Nanjing. Please be aware that the buns and shu mai here are Nanjing style meaning that they are different than the other Hong Kong dim sum varieties which are popular in downtown Toronto. Truly a good representation of Nanjing specialties!“

“Ordered the black pepper sauce on pork chop and chicken steak on rice. Had a side of mix veg (carrots, corn, peas and beans) and broccoli. Place seemed cramped with the tables close together. Food is proced from $10 to $20. Friends say this is one of the better HK style restaurants out there. Will try their pork curled and pitato salad next time.“

“Went there unintentionally just to get some quick snack while waiting for friends. The atmosphere was like you are so where in France. I grabbed salad and a coffee and my partner enjoyed tasty cappuccino. Great balanced dressing not overpowering the taste of the fresh greens and sesame seeds. Service itself was great, since they recognized I was a first-time visitor, the ambassador had helped me to make a choice. To my surprise the prices were “balanced” as well. Great place in the heart of Toronto! Recommend it.“

“Really good food. Will definitely come back again.“

“We were so happy when we found out that this Pai location was in our neighbourhood and it has now become a staple. We don't notice a difference from the downtown and Eglinton locations - it's the exact same quality and portion sizes. We also love that they are so accommodating about substitutions and making items gluten free. Never a bad meal here!“
