50 Best Soup near Merrifield

“Very friendly staff.. good service.. and more important great food 🤙“

“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!!!!“

“My sister and I really enjoyed the calamari, cucumber salad, braised beef and noodle soup and garlic green beans. I rate those 5 stars. We also ordered the ugly dumplings sampler, I rate this zero star and it a waste of money. Now the service was excellent! Our server Abel took his time explaining the menu since it's our first visit. He was always smiling, courteous and respectful.“

“So good! Loved everything and service was great“

“Great food and great name!“

“Loved it!!!!... Nice and Cozy“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
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!“

“I liked most dishes I’ve tried, especially the spicy eggplant. I don’t recommend the pad see ew — it’s dry, noodles are gummy and the vegetables are basically stems.“

“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!“

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

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

“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!“

“역시 튀김류와 고추짬뽕 매생이 누룽지탕은 최고인듯 합니다! ^^“

“First time customer. Ordered the following carryout lunch specials for myself and the kids.- General Tso's Chicken- Crispy Orange Chicken- Chicken with Broccoli- Sweet & Sour Pork- Pork Fried RiceThe gentleman behind the counter was nice and smiled when I entered.The prices were really reasonable and the portion size across the board was good.The kids and I enjoyed everything, especially the orange chicken and sweet and sour pork. We'll be sure to come back.“

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

“Came into today for the Chicken Kabob wrap.
Fresh off the grill. Spices & flavor were unreal. Atmosphere was great, nice clean place. It was one of the best lunches I’ve had in a long time. I’ll be back in next week. You can taste the authenticity. Highly recommended. They don’t skimp the meat, and they make it super fresh.“

“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!“

“Best egg rolls and crab wontons I’ve ever had“

“A gem in Burke! The food is always really great, fresh, and flavorful. Service is consistently good, and the staff make you feel welcome every time. Prices and portions are very reasonable, which makes it an easy go-to spot for both dine-in and takeout. They’ve been around for years...and for good reason! Definitely worth checking out if you’re craving Thai food.“

“⚠️ This Panera is located within a hospital system and to avoid confusion, enter at the WOMEN'S HOSPITAL entrance ⚠️

Parking is free for the first 30 minutes in the parking garage.

This Panera location has limited seating but offers a full menu 24 hours a day.“

“Excellent food and customer service.“

“There are so many pho restaurants in NOVA, but Pho Hai Duong has quickly become my favorite. I order their combination pho with extra hoisin and jalapeños at least once a week, and with their early opening hours I can even get pho for breakfast! I love the quality of their meat, the flavor of their broth, and the consistency of the meal each time I order. I definitely recommend this restaurant and feel spoiled to be able to eat there so regularly. 💯“

“Their food, customer service and fast delivery are all great and consistent. My favorite would be the Chef’s special orange chicken which comes with a side box of white rice. Try the veggie spring roll, crispy and delicious. Ask them for some homemade chili oil. Thank you!!“

“Very helpful and friendly staff. Managers present helping speed up the serving process and they are very helpful should you need anything. ALI provides awesome customer service and makes sure you have a pleasant visit. Ali went above and beyond today to make sure I found the food items I was looking for and that I was satisfied. Cannot recommend dealing with him enough.

Really nice improvements here at this location the past few weeks to bump my review up to 5 stars for this Panera.
For reference we stop by 1-2 times a week at this location. Typically between 3-4.
We frequently order the Roasted Turkey & Avocado.
The new Deli Ham sandwich is really nice too as they return ham sandwiches to the menu!“

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

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

“We had a nice evening! Thank you!“

“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 !“

“Stellar and phenomenal Panera Bread location in the heart ❤️ of Ballston, Virginia! I’m visiting many different Panera Bread locations and each one is so incredibly special! The staff and the customers are amazing. The food and beverages are, of course, outstanding! I can’t wait to return and thank you tremendously for being such a wonderful company. 💙🙏“

“It’s the usual Panera experience with a delicious selection of food.

However, the dining area felt a bit off. It was giving an uninviting feel. It was somewhat comfortable, but the ambiance just didn’t feel right. Overall, the place could benefit from an update and improved lighting to bring it up to the Panera vibe. That said, the food & staff were great as always!“

“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 must say, this has to be the best Panera location I’ve been to. Seems that they actually put effort into preparing the food. This was the first time I had a side of a warm baguette from Panera, other locations are cold and stale. The rest of my order was hot and tasty. Props to the team here and setting the standard.“
