50 Best Soup near Falls Church

“Yesterday was my first visit to Elephant Jumps. I was impressed by the many menu items I’d never heard of before, especially the ones that said there was no option to substitute ingredients, even the meat. That tells me they want their customers to experience those dishes in their traditional form. Everything I ordered was delicious and I can’t wait to go back!“

“Great food and great name!“

“Used to be one my favorite places for Korean bbq, and was high on my list of places to recommend to others, but with each visit I have noticed the portion size getting smaller. I feel like the price to meat ratio now is becoming a bit unfair (at least for me). Hence, 4 stars.“

“This is the best thai restaurant in NoVA, owned by such a lovely family, who also used to own Happy Thai near Mosaic. We know because we used to go to Happy Thai all the time but since the owner change it wasn’t the same. Through luck we learned that the owner family actually owned this restaurant first! We were ecstatic and indeed, it was the familiar taste that we remember from Happy Thai 2-3 yrs ago!“

“This is great Pho, would totally recommend. Awesome fast service :)“

“Outstanding restaurant that defines excellence! Every aspect of our meal was perfect from the amuse-bouche to the final petit fours. The service was world-class with staff who clearly take pride in their craft. The seasonal menu showcases the finest ingredients prepared with remarkable skill. The sommelier's recommendations were inspired. A truly memorable dining experience!“

“I got the all you can eat pasta with angel hair and the creamy mushroom sauce. I forgot the five dollar all you can eat topping of chicken, so I decided to go without that the rest of my plates. The plates come out fast. We had a party of four and two got soup, two got salads. We were only given one order of breadsticks and told they ran out. We left 15 minutes before closing. I still feel like they could’ve brought us some more breadsticks…

Another friend got a lasagna plate, someone else got the pasta and I forget what our other person ordered.

The two of us got soup got the gnocchi soup. That’s always my favorite. It was brought out a normal portion sizes, and super hot. I like that the service was fast because in the past when I got that all you can eat things they take really long time.

The pasta portions for all you can eat, were normal size the first time the other times in a smaller plate, but I felt like it was about the same portions.

The waitress did give us containers to take them to go, including any leftover soup. I thought that was cool. Some places that do all you can eat don’t let you do that.

We went on a Monday night. There was many tables empty. We arrived at 8 o’clock. They close at 10. That was a sufficient amount of time to spend eating and enjoying friends.

I ordered a piña colada that was really good and in a gigantic cup. They did no ice in my cup of water.

I hope this helps you out !“

“An aesthetically pleasing Panera location in a really cute neighborhood with the same great food, service and atmosphere I love at Panera. The team members are very friendly and welcoming and the shop is very clean.

Parking is a little more difficult in this area. There's only street parking available.“

“THIS IS THE BEST SPOT FOR CHINESE FOOD ✅✅✅✅✅✅✅✅I hate to see all theses people reviewing , making it seem as if staff and food are not good here . I’ve been coming here over 15 years and not once did I ever get disrespected or seen any unsanitary things . THE FOOD HERE IS SO GOOD IT IS TO DIE FOR SO DONT LET THESE REVIWES FOOL U GO TRY IT OUT . (Btw STAFF ARE SO NICE AND KIND LOVE THEM)“

“I visited Miss Toya"s Creole on Saturday September 30th. I took my oldest son for his birthday ?. My waitress Hope gave excellent customer service. The food was awesome as always. The manager Imai came to our table numerous times to make sure everything was good. Please go to Miss Toyas in Silver Springs Md the food and customer service will not disappoint you.“

“I’m going to post the same review I gave on Yelp - this is a 5 Star place! After a day in DC, my family decided to try Soul Thai on our way home. What a terrific Experience. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was some of the best Thai we have ever had. The Pad Thai was amazing. The Hang Over Noodles (Drunken Noodles) was exceptional. And the red curry was by far the best I’ve had in the area. The ambiance was quite pleasant as well. Initially we were sat in an area that was a little noisy for our taste, but they graciously moved us to a much quieter section. The owner, Nancy came over after our meal and was very appreciative of our comments on the meal. She shared with us that she personally picks the freshest ingredients she can find to ensure the quality of the food. I would highly recommend Soul Thai to everyone. We will be coming back soon. THANK YOU, Nancy!!!!“

“Service was great and beyond exceptional. A place to try for special occasion for seafood. We had the grilled octopus and sardines for appetizers. Both are great options. We had the Connecticut version of lobster roll which came in hot. The catch of the day was a pan seared cod. It was good. The hit was the squid ink risotto. This place is great to celebrate special occasions but not for weekly or even monthly dining. Would be cost prohibitive.“

“It was my first time there. Food was great. I would definitely return.“

“So good! Loved everything and service was great“

“This place really deserves the high rating! It's a great place for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The cafe is charming, very clean, and as cheerful as the name suggests! We had a veggie breakfast burrito and a veggie omelet, both of which were delicious and full of fresh ingredients. The coffee was really good too. There are lots of options on the menu and the prices are very reasonable. The lady who runs the place (owner?) is so nice and welcoming, too. We'll definitely be back!“

“We are visiting from Tennessee and wanted authentic Thai cuisine. We found it at Sampannee!!! The best Thai meal I have ever eaten. The cocktails were delicious and the food was perfection! Very friendly kitchen and the waitress was very friendly. I’ll be dreaming of Sampannee for many months! So, so good!!“

“Best pho I’ve ever had! I take my friends here to show them and they all love it. I usually do takeout but I dined in today, the food came out very fast. I usually prefer a more spaced out seating arrangement but that’s my own personal opinion and it isn’t even possible because the place is small. It doesn’t take away from the beauty of this restaurant. 10/10 would recommend!“

“Loved it!!!!... Nice and Cozy“

“The best Vietnamese food hands down! When I’m in the area I always have to stop by Le Bledo to get a banh mi and a soup. The consistent quality and attention to detail is what makes this place great. I know what to expect so I’m always satisfied with my food from the fresh baked daily bread to the variety of Vietnamese classic soups such as pho, bun bo hue, and bun rieu 😋 10/10 highly recommend and bring a friend!“

“Great food at great car meetup.“

“Pho Saigon 75 is a go-to spot for authentic Vietnamese food. The Bún Bò Huế is rich, flavorful, and perfectly spicy with tender beef shank and pig knuckle. The grilled clams are a must-try — smoky, juicy, and topped with a savory mix of scallions, peanuts, and buttery fish sauce. Fast, friendly service and a clean, welcoming space make it even better. Highly recommend!“

“I love Phonatics. Something about the texture and flavor of the broth makes it my favorite, and I love sitting at the window and watching 14th St. There is even a bald eagle that flies around Columbia Heights that I occasionally spot from the window.“

“You have got to ask for Jay Kim, he is the best server in the house. He was patient and ever so helpful with us as first time hot potters. I had a vegetarian hot pot, well, except for the dumplings. Although they have no vegetarian options, he worked with me and provided me with an alternate option. It would be more awesome for them to add it to their menu tho for those of us who just love veggies. The broth is vegetarian based so it makes sense to have a vegetarian option along with it. We had a party of 8 and Jay Kim made it so much fun!!! The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was so fresh. One other option that would have been great to have would be fresh ginger at the sauce bar and mushrooms on the vegetable plate. We were all pleasantly pleased with our food. The ambiance is very nice, low light but more than enough to cook and enjoy each other's company. Jay Kim made sure we always had what we needed. The sauce bar was amazing, so many choices. I recommend making a few bowls, some for the broth and and some for dipping your cooked food. If you get any type of meat, also make a sauce to marinade the meat. You don't have to but it made a good difference. Meats are thinly sliced for quick cooking and again,so fresh. The price was worth the amount of food and the experience. There is an all you can eat option or an a la carte option where you just get one meat selection and a vegetable plate which was more than enough for us as a party of young ladies. This was a great first hot pot experience and I definitely recommend it, just make sure to ask for Jay Kim. I know you will enjoy it!!!“

“3 Reasons. Food was plentiful and so good!, the owners super friendly and the location was perfect!😍“

“I came to this cozy Vietnamese restaurant primarily to enjoy a warm, flavorful bowl of pho, but I ended up leaving with a sense of belonging and being part of a welcoming family. Omg, this place was unlike any other I've experienced. Its strong sense of community, along with the caring and a strong Mom made the pho here special and memorable.“

“😋Outstanding food! Everything was amazing!“

“Delicious authentic Vietnamese food! I've been here three times now, and each time I loved what I ordered. The first time I had the rice plate with grilled lemongrass chicken (com ga nuong), the second time I had the pho tai chin (eye round steak and well done brisket), and the third time I had the vermicelli bowl with grilled lemongrass chicken (bun ga nuong). The lemongrass chicken here is so good. The food reminds me of the rice plates, vermicelli bowls, and pho that I had when I visited Saigon last year. The staff is all super friendly, and I enjoyed chatting with them, practicing my Vietnamese. I will always try to stop by here again when I'm in the area. I highly recommend Pho 72!“

“Best sandwich I’ve ever had. I got the turkey and Brie. You can see the cranberry sauce/relish brewing right there in a big stainless steel pot on the stove right behind the cashier. Everything was warm and melty and delicious.

Great ingredients. Friendly staff. Good music playing. Fast service. Chill little tucked away spot. First time here so I can’t speak to rest of the menu but it’s gotta be great. Five stars.“

“$2 Crazy Hour is absolutely insane! They have a great selection of sushi and various appetizers. The sushi is the same high quality as their dinner service ,the fish pieces are huge and incredibly fresh. The alcohol are 50% off, and the selection is massive,they're not stingy like other places that only offer one or two brands. It's a super friendly restaurant, and you absolutely cannot find a better deal in town!“

“We love the food ?“

“This tiny hole in the wall is amazing. The food is rich and delicious. I have eaten Italian across the globe and rarely come across a more balanced and delicious dish. Did I mention the portions are huge? The servers are so nice and the restaurant has an eclectic vibe. I cannot recommend it enough.“

“All I can say is .... wonderful pho at this restaurant. Definitely reconmend!.“

“Epic SmokeHouse – Arlington, VA Overall Rating: 8/10 Parking lot upgrades at the Pentagon brought G-FORCE to Arlington, but we didn’t expect to stumble upon BBQ royalty just a mile down the road at Epic SmokeHouse. Let’s just say… the name fits. We kicked things off with the App Sampler—and every bite hit like a flavor freight train. Smoked wings so tender they felt like they’d just left the hog pen—crispy skin, juicy interior, absolute perfection. Burnt ends? Melt-in-your-mouth with just enough sauce to whisper "I’m fancy" without screaming it. And the Kalua Pig Rolls… I still don’t know what’s in them, but I want to shake the chef’s hand (or hug him). Then came the showstopper: Brisket Poutine. Hand-cut fries crisped to golden excellence, smothered in rich brown butter gravy, melty cheese curds, and that sweet smoky brisket—topped with green onions and sesame seeds for that crunch-and-pop finale. This dish is dangerous… the kind of comfort food that makes you forget what day it is. The House Secret Burnt Mac rolled in hot in a mini skillet—smoky, cheesy, and just saucy enough to coat every bite without drowning it. Balanced, bold, and addicting. Don’t sleep on the Collard Greens either—just the right amount of flavor, a lil’ bit of spice but not too bold. A solid side that holds its own. Final Verdict: If you’re in Arlington for business, BBQ, or just breathing—get to Epic SmokeHouse. And if you're lucky, G-FORCE might’ve just made the parking lot a little smoother on your way in. #PaintAndPlateCrew #SupportLocal #EpicEats #BBQNearThePentagon #HIREAVET #GFORCEApproved #8OutOf10 #WINWITHVSB #PAINTCORPS“

“You can’t get better soup than from a place that specializes in it. The seollongtang had plenty of noodles and meat. The galbitang had a savory broth, lots of meat — great flavor all around. The haemul pajeon was crispy and stuffed with seafood.

The standout item was the kong-guksu. Dad had been craving it as it was a favorite of his in childhood. He has tried it at other places and wasn’t impressed. Here, he finished the whole thing and would’ve licked the bowl clean.

Note: the soups are under-salted so you can customize them to your liking. The salt containers on each table have enough salt to please any saltaholic.“

Great experience at Olive Garden! The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Big thanks to Mr. Brayan for being so kind and attentive — he really made our visit special!“

“If you want a great breakfast, with homemade home fries and great pancakes, go to Madison deli. They also have terrific sandwiches salads and soups. During non-Covid times, they make the best Korean bulgogi around. I highly recommend it!“

“This is a wonderful, low-key restaurant in the heart of Courthouse serving amazing Indian-Nepalese food. I ordered a vegetarian Thali and the curries tasted very fresh and homemade. The thali also comes with a good quantity of rice and fresh naan all for a very reasonable price. While there is no seating inside the restaurant, there are places to seat outside in the plaza. Overall, this was a great experience for a quick takeout spot and I will definitely be back!“

“Great Service!!! Lobster Roll was a nice segue from a regular fish sandwich.“

“Great servers! This was a great surprise to find this place so far south from Maine.“

“Food is nice 👍 and friendly staff as well no negative comments“

“Having been to a few other Chinese restaurants in the area, this blows them out of the water! The food is authentic as you can get, especially how you can see the chef making the noodles fresh. The meal was crafted with love, and I definitely will be coming back here a lot!“

“I eat Pho for fifteen years… it’s delicious.. I love the crispy chicken wing too“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
As a keen Panera Bread customer across the States, I’ve visited many locations, but this one at Dipont Circle truly stands out.

“I like this location best. There's always plenty of parking and they have good customer service. The food is always delicious. 👌 😋“

“This is our go-to Chinese takeout spot! Food is usually ready in 10-15 minutes. I'd recommend the moo shu chicken, Szechuan string beans, pan fried pork dumplings, and the lo mein.
Parking is available behind the restaurant, and it's easier to get in/out if you come in that way.“

“I love Panera the sandwiches and the salads. Yesterday my hubby and I ate lunch���“

“Thank you Panera, my dinner was: free Pick 2 meal and a free large drink. 😋 <3 👍“
