Ate some chili there for lunch today and it tasted good. My problem was that it wasn't hot. It was barely warm. No where close to the temperature that it should be served at.

Looked forward to eating here but was disappointed. We spent the day in Oak Ridge and decided to eat here. I do like soup and make it for my lunch. We entered the restaurant and noticed the modest attempt at decorations. My wife got the tomato basil soup with a three cheese grilled sandwich. She commented on the Mexican cornbread and the server actually gave her a broken piece. She really enjoyed her lunch. I got the clam chowder with a grilled cheese sandwich. Needless to say I was somewhat disappointed. The chowder didn’t have much of a taste.
I go in to eat soup that is hot!!! The soup is barely hot, the cornbread is cold. The servers always over fill my bowl, a nasty mess. The unsweetened tea was empty and the silverware is nasty. I believe in supporting local businesses, but I do not want to get sick either. Sausage and hamburger should not be served barley worm. They have a steam table and a wormer for the bread. Steam on the table, no heat on the soup. Im done with this business!

I had lunch with my Brother & Sister- awhile back & Everything is Great- even the Vegetarian Soup is amazing & their Brown Bread is better than any other I have tried!! Everyone is very nice & some people look at you- like you’re crazy, if you prefer meatless soup, well If they know me- that’s true, I will admit that I am a little bit crazy 🤪. They All deserve at least 10 stars, but if you have the chance to go there, you’ll be a repeat guest ❣️

OH MY GOODNESS!!! I popped into The Soup Kitchen on a whim this evening - I was in the mood for soup since it's fall and it felt right for a Friday night - and I am SO happy I did. The crab chowder was INCREDIBLE and the roll (I got white bread) was absolutely delicious. Like so good I could probably eat 6 in a sitting. And to top it off, some of the BEST Coconut Cream Pie I have ever had. I will absolutely be coming back to try more!

Everything I’ve had is great, but you have to come on Wednesdays and try the soft shell crab soup. It’s like I just ordered a fresh crab dish off the boardwalk, it tastes so good.

I order soup kitchen from Door Dash 2-3 times per week. It's around $20 bucks for 2 soups, a bread and the delivery tip. You simply can't beat that price! I've never had a soup from here that wasn't a 10/10. Do yourself a favor on a Wednesday and get a Snow Crap Soup and dip their cheese bread in it!

The lady was very helpful when navigating took us to the wrong spot (imagine that 🤣) our first time here! The chicken and dumplings is the best southern style chicken and dumplings I have ever had!! The chili is good! The white bread that is made fresh is amazing! The Mexican style cornbread is good, a tad dry for me but not everyone likes the way I like mine either so it’s just my opinion! Overall the service was great and the food we had was great as well! Thank you to the staff, well done!

Soup might be the ultimate comfort food. Daily special soups. And to remember eating at Grandma's, grilled cheese sandwiches.
