50 Best Soup near North York

“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!!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“looking for relaxing atmosphere and cheap eats.. this is the place in North York. Must try.“

“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!“

“We have been ordering from them for years and they have never disappointed. Last night we tried something new, the Cantonese Beef #31 and it was amazing. The chicken wings are amazing, the dishes are always full of meat and veg. The veggies are always fresh and cooked to perfection.“

“mon an ngon,“

“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!“

“This was our 2nd visit for lunch. We had chicken pad Thai and Bun Bo Hue today (attached pics) which were as delicious as the Pho combo and Chicken white meat soup that we had a two weeks ago. Flavourful soup, tender meat, reasonable prices for large portion sizes, nice ambience, friendly staff and lots of parking in large plaza. This place has become one of our favourite lunch spots!

Parking: Restaurant is an end unit in a large plaza with lots of free parking. Located behind Imagine cinemas.“

“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 ☺️“

“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. :)“

“Great food, service, and atmosphere.“

“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.“

“Best service, pork chops and atmosphere in the GT. Shout out to server David for a great experience every time! Funny dude. I’ve brought my family and they’ve all loved it… just try it. Special mention to Helen - she really knows what she’s doing by not allowing customers to skip us in line!“

“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.“

“This place was basically like my second home at school. I would come here almost every day to eat lunch with my boyfriend. Andy, the owner, knew every single person's name. Not only is his service amazing but he is a friend to anyone that walks in. There was a family cultivated there. He always was so generous and the food was so amazing each time - my boyfriend would make fun of me for scraping the bowl. The student discount was also so affordable. I've had so many memories there, and it is the definition of authentic, homey food that makes you feel nice and warm inside. 😋😋“

“best place to eat soup in Toronto.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Good services. Freshly made“

“Skewers need improvement; pork bone large was not as expected size wise, appetizer platter is not recommended since a few items were not impressive at all.“

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

“Mapo gamjatamg Soup very flavorful. Served piping hot. The pork bone generous with lots of meat. Side dish not as much but enough.
The chicken with sticky sweet sauce is the best. Portion is big enough for sharing.
Place is nice and clean.“

“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.“

“Very good food 🍲 and friendly“

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

“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!“

“best place to eat soup in Toronto.“

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

“Very hard working owner and staff! Very polite and super smiley! Good quality service all the way until closing!

Wish I took a photo of our meal sets as the presentation was super cute and well done- but I was too excited and ate it all before I could snap one!

Would definitely recommend if you are in the Markham area!“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“Excellent food. Always fresh.“

“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.“

“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“

“love this place. it is authentic Korean food. it is my 4th time in two months 🥰“

“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).“

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

“they did a Great job at the corn festival“

“Chive, pork, and shrimp potstickers were a 10/10. They’re already well seasoned, perfectly fine to eat them as is, I added chili oil and vinegar to mine for an extra kick.

Chive pockets were well seasoned, the chives were not dry at all, no sandy texture either.

Would get both items again!“

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

“Excelente atención, buen ambiente y gran variedad de platillos“

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

“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“

“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!!! 🫡🫡🫡“
