50 Best Soup near Mercer Island

“This is my favorite restaurant on Mercer Island. It has been here for years, I have eaten here a billion times, they are always so sweet to customers and the food is always warm, delicious, and cozy. Writing this review because I genuinely love this restaurant so much and I want it to be here forever.“

“The food was phenomenal! Authentic, flavorful and so delicious. My mind was blown the whole night. Their mocktails and sweet tea are amazing! We will definitely be coming back!“

“Very good sushi and Japanese food. I don't remember many eclectic or unique items, but the menu is extensive and everything is well prepared. They have just about every kind of Japanese food and a nice variety of sake, cocktails, and non-alcoholic beverages. The service is friendly and efficient.“

“Delicious food, excellent service and the drinks! If you know, you know. 😉“

“Very good! I wish they did the kalua pork with the combo plates (didn’t notice until I got home) but the bbq pork was really good. Will have to try just the kalua pork next time. Def worth getting the +$1 upgrade to fried rice. Mac salad was delicious, I’m picky about it and often don’t eat it when I get Hawaiian food but this was good. Can’t wait to try more things from the menu. Spam musubi was standard edition but still yummy.“

“Had a hankering Sunday evening for an elite Lobstah Roll while in Newport, RI so I did a lil internet searching and Luke's was consistently at the top of the list. Checked out their menu online and saw they offered a Lobster Roll flight! SOLD! Off I went to find parking and get an order ASAP. Found Luke's on the corner on the Wharf and got to ordering with a quickness. Lobster Roll Sampler with three 2 oz half-rolls: lemon butter, spicy honey butter, and truffle butter w/ chips and a soft drink. Choice of Sea Salt or Sea Salt and Vinegar Kettle Chips, and choice of beverage. I got the Sea Salt and Vinegar (duh) and Blueberry Lemonade in a glass bottle. The lobster in their rolls comes cold, but for a $1 upcharge, you can get it warm, which is my preference. I also got an affordably priced Poppy Seed Slaw. Folks - these Lobster Rolls deserve top billing on "Best Of" lists. My fav might have been the truffle butter lobster roll. It adds something I never knew a lobster roll was missing, but they were all delectable. The roll makes the roll, though. Buttery sourdough with the perfect thin layer of crisp. All flavors were well-balanced and left me wanting more, even though it was plenty food to make a satisfying meal with maybe/maybe not room for dessert. I honestly didn't get any dessert nearby because I didn't want to lose the taste of what I just had! The Poppy Slaw was different, but in a good, not-too-different way. It was a little on the dryer side for my liking, but I liked it just the same. I am sorry to other local Lobster Roll vendors because I don't think I'll try anywhere new on my next visit. It'll be Luke's, no doubt. I might even make a special trip just for the rolls sooner rather than later, but that time I will try the chowder too!“

“AMAZING! Huge lamb and beef ring plate was fun to eat from. Sesame balls were good, Szechuan cucumbers were very spicy, complimentary soft serve ice cream is my favorite icy, bad quality texture I strangely love. Medium hot was too spicy for me, I liked the Chinese herb with no spice.“

“Yes they do review farm for a free drink, but I genuinely thought the food was delicious and great value and portion.

The shrimp fried rice was tasty and fillings, and the fried skewers definitely satisfied the craving we had. The staff were so nice and attentive as well. We will be back“

“This is by far my favorite teriyaki spot amd my go to! I love their chicken yakisoba, they don't skimp on anything. The food is always fresh and delicious. The helping is definitely worth the money spent. We ordered over the phone and then by the time we get there the food is ready. So service is standard time, which I would expect when the food is that good. I've never had a bad experience here like I've had at many other teriyaki places.“

“This amazing establishment provided chowder & bisque for the Classic Yacht Association's Bell Harbor Rendezvous over this last Fathers' Day weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed luscious bowls of absolute scrumptiousness, and appreciated their courteous, kind, and professional staff. Thank you!!! Highly recommend!“

“Great service and the food is AMAZING! Our server, In, remember us from our last visit and even remembered what I ordered.“

“Beef onion buns are a must try!!“

“Best Salmon EVER!!!! And what a fun crew working there too!!!! These folks can cook, I HIGHLY recommend the Salmon and coleslaw!!! Next time I’m up in Seattle, I’m definitely going back to them!“

“What a perfect grub session! Got some falafels,baba ghanoush, and Greek fries and it all rocked. My only complaint and the only reason that I didn't give them 5 stars for atmosphere is because it was hot as Hades in there. It's not the prettiest joint, but it was very well priced and delicious so we just enjoyed the heat. Overall 5 stars!“

“Been here once and impressed. Ordered the special, soup and sandwich, who’d guess. M ore filling than bread; fresh tasting focaccia style bread, fresh tomato and greens, all good things! Soup was good. They have 12+ soups on hand. My clam chowder was perfect. Usual style chowder, wasn’t watery or overcooked so perfect.
If you want soup with variety of accompaniments this place fits the bill.
It’s the least flashy place there so both days very little line.“

“Good food and good service!“

“The services at this restaurant was top notch! The food were amazing and well done. Loved the environment and good music. Will be back soon“

“Menu is awesome, quick services and good food!“

“I absolutely love this place! Total hole-in-the-wall (as the best places are) and incredible food. Family-owned! They have online ordering for pickup or delivery, AND btw if you’re vegetarian, they have a vegetarian broth for their pho so 💯 just saying. Pictured here are the 5-spice chicken banh mi, cole slaw salad, and some home-brewed Thai iced tea 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 Also, I normally get grandma le’s egg rolls and oh my god 🤤 highly recommended!“

“I love this place. The food is always fresh with well balanced flavors, with lots of options depending on the flavor palette and proteins you are looking for. The value is excellent, with generous portions of protein in all my go-to entrees. I love the sushi burritos and poke bowls, especially.

The staff are all great, always kind and very attentive to my questions. They have always been kind to accommodate any modification requests I have to my order. I have been coming to Deli Queen regularly since April of this year. As a new transplant to Washington, it has become a comforting place to eat for me.“

“The pho at Meekong Kitchen in downtown was absolutely delicious! The broth was rich, aromatic, and full of comforting flavor, while the noodles were perfectly cooked and the ingredients tasted fresh. Every bite was satisfying and well balanced. The portion was generous, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere made for a great evening. We will definitely be coming back!“

“I am like the food,fresh and delicious.“

“Haven't been at this Than Brothers in ages so the new location was a surprise. It's nice to see that the cream puffs have returned. Easy parking on the south side of the building. Nice open dining room. Always a favorite fast lunch option.“

“Such an incredible new Chinese place for north Seattle! Every dish we had was amazing. Mongolian beef with crispy rice noodles--perfect flavor. The sweet and sour pork was like nothing we've had before, and the pot stickers are clearly made from scratch on site, they taste soooo fresh. Best of all, the chef had just whipped up a bath of popcorn chicken with this amazing sweet/spicy seasoning, and let us try it to give our opinion on the new recipe. So good! Very high quality food, made fresh, and incredibly reasonable prices. (Most entrees I saw are $9-12.) And the owners are exceptionally kind and professional. This will be our go to when we are in the neighborhood.“

“The Rabbit Box rules for honest Seattle music. Low key, hi-fi, all genres of music and people, great food, and absolutely unique vibe. It’s under historic panels of glass built into the sidewalks on Pike St. at the Market. Seriously, you can hear great sounds, drink a fabulous cocktail and eat super food while you actually enjoy seeing people walk all over you. ❤️❤️🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠“

“I had the beef teriyaki and my husband had kaee Mao dinner soo delicious! Very kind people who are invested in your experience and making sure you enjoy the food they put their heart into. If you enjoy this type of food at all, this is a must to try!“

“I like that this place gives you an order sheet to customize your meal. I ordered a congee bowl with century egg and pork, along with steamed tripe. The congee had a clean, mild flavor—a little bland for my taste, but soy sauce, chili oil, and ground pepper were available to season it to my liking.“

“Great food and the best service .“

“This is the best Pho place so far for me. They have 4 sizes of the bowls which is perfect cause sometimes you wanna switch the amount of soup size and the price is from 14,15,16,17 bucks depends on the size. I don’t think you find any deals like this somewhere else. The ladies staff here are very sweet and try to serve you as soon as she can. Clean place!“

“probably the best Mexican food I have eaten in years. everything was flavorful and well seasoned. The steak in the queso fundido was tender and delicious. the tortillas are fresh and warm. absolutely delicious.“

“We've had a number of meals here now and, Saigon Gardens has been a model consistency. The plate dishes have been very good, and their Pho-Tai has been exceptional. Not sure why some reviews complain about a flavorless broth.

Now the real test will be how good will their food be 18months from now. Common habit for some south Seattle Vietnamese restaurants is the food quality drops off about a year or two of operation.

But, so far so good!“

“muy rico y buena atención gracias bendiciones“

“So yummy! I was excited to see this place here in the Seattle area. I had only been to the one in Honolulu before and it was so good! The noodles are thick and the flavors are amazing. The tempura is fresh and delicious. Definitely recommend.“

“This amazing establishment provided chowder & bisque for the Classic Yacht Association's Bell Harbor Rendezvous over this last Fathers' Day weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed luscious bowls of absolute scrumptiousness, and appreciated their courteous, kind, and professional staff. Thank you!!! Highly recommend!“

“I stopped by Pho Than Brothers on Broadway and had a really good experience overall. The pho was flavorful, comforting, and served with generous portions. The broth had a nice, rich taste, and the meat was tender. I also appreciated that they include a complimentary cream puff with the meal—it’s a small touch that makes the experience feel a little more special.

The restaurant has a casual, no-frills atmosphere, and the service was friendly and efficient. My food came out quickly, making it a great spot for a satisfying lunch or dinner.

The reason I’m giving four stars instead of five is that, while the pho was very good, I’ve had a few places with broth that was a bit deeper and more complex in flavor. That said, it’s still a solid bowl of pho, and I’d gladly come back whenever I’m craving a comforting Vietnamese meal.

Overall, Pho Than Brothers is a reliable neighborhood favorite with good food, reasonable prices, and welcoming service. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.“

“Amazing food, service and drinks!“

“My favorite Korean restaurant in the Seattle area! Their broth is always incredibly rich and flavorful. I’ve tried most of the menu, and it has never disappointed. The warm Korean ladies there are so welcoming and kind. They remind me of my mom back in Korea 🥺 If you’re looking for authentic Korean cuisine, I highly recommend this place.

너무 맛있게 잘 먹었습니다ㅎㅎ 레드몬드에서 제일 맛있어요♥︎“

“Great spot for some good Korean food, especially the tofu soup and #22 octopus bimimbap

The Kalbi was a bit too sweet and salty for me but I like less sodium these days

Service is great. They proactively ask if you want more of your individual side dishes. That’s such good service“

“Amazing service and delicious food every time I go. Years ago you had a lady named Renee who worked for you as a hostess; without doubt she was THE friendliest, warmest, kindest, most sincere customer service representative in any industry I have ever had the privilege of meeting and being served by.“

“I'm sorry to give only 3 stars but wontons in shrimp wonton soup had tails still on some of the shrimp in the wontons. I hope this was an accident and not the way they are supposed to be made. But being unfamiliar with shrimp wonton, maybe thats the correct way. Sorry, but I didn't like it with the tails still on the shrimp.“

“The pho was pretty good. Not the best I’ve ever had, but enjoyable. And the wait staff was very attentive and kind. When we’re in Burien we would go back again.“

“Update: I am sad to say that because of the huge changes made to the menu by the new owner, I have to take a star away from my rating. The food has become under seasoned and sometimes the execution is poor. The quality is now inconsistent but broadly underwhelming, with old signature dishes having been removed or turned into something unrecognizable. It is nowhere near where it was three years ago when the founder ran the restaurant. I hope that they reconsider a lot of these changes so I can give the star back.

Not just the best Chinese food in the Pierce/King county area, but the best food. My wife is a Chinese expat and this is pure comfort food for her. Their food is authentic Chinese, the way I remember it from my time there in Henan, and on top of that, it's relatively cheap.

You know it's real Chinese when it's fresh, delicious, healthy, and reasonably priced. We drive all the way from Tacoma to come here every time, at least twice a month. It's worth the trip not just because the food is so good, but also because the location is great -- we can do our shopping at Ranch 99 for cool Asian import groceries and other comforts from back home.

On top of all this, the service is warm, sincere, and efficient. My favorite place to eat, period.“

“Me and my friends come here all the time and the workers are so sweet and the food is always delicious!! It is definitely me and my friend groups must go place!! If you’re hungry and want a friendly face definitely go to this place !“

“Love this comfortable place in the heart of Seattle. Great proximity to two theaters.“

“Great little place. Check out is self service so it saves time. Not a large variety but really like the soups and sandwiches. It's convenient when you're on the go and need to grab a quick bite. Herkimer coffee is available too and packed lunches (noodles, wraps) and breakfast wraps and sandwiches.“

“WE LOVE EVERYONE THAT WORKS AT TAQUELIA TAQUERIA! They are so nice and always treat us like family. Food-wise, I recommend smothering everything in their amazing homemade salsa 😂 Their burritos are massive and a family-favorite. I love the taco salad and little tacos!! How can I pick just one thing?? It's all amazing! ❤🤍💚“

“Good food. Quick. Reasonable prices. Yummy. Do not hesitate. FIVE STARS!“

“I’ve been coming to Sushi Omiya every 1–2 weeks for a long time, and the food is consistently good, the quality has always been there, and the staff is normally very friendly. I’ve honestly never had an issue until today.

I regularly special-order two salmon skin rolls and a salmon skin hand roll through their QR ordering system. Today I placed my usual order to table T6, got the confirmation, and even watched the order print out on the little receipt machine next to me. After 20 minutes, nothing arrived. So I ordered it again. Same confirmation, same receipt printing out. Another 20 minutes passed and still nothing.

During those 40 minutes, nobody stopped by the table to check on me, so eventually I gave up and decided to leave.

What disappointed me more than not getting the food was the response when I mentioned it on the way out. Instead of simply saying, “Sorry about that,” I was first asked if I was sure I had ordered it. Then I was told maybe the internet was down—even though I literally watched both orders print out and other customers were receiving their special orders. Finally, I was told that I should have let them know.

Well, I did let them know—twice, through the ordering system they provide. I don’t think a customer should have to leave their seat and track someone down because an order hasn’t arrived.

Mistakes happen. Maybe they were out of salmon skin, maybe the kitchen missed the tickets, or maybe something else happened. No big deal. But when something does go wrong, the first response should be an apology and an attempt to make it right—not finding different ways to suggest the customer did something wrong.

I’m still a regular customer and I’ll be back because this was definitely the exception, not the rule. The food has always been good and normally so is the service. My suggestion is simple: when you miss one, just own it and take care of your customer.

See you next time.“

“Decent broth (does have MSG) , they do jave other MSG free options ok the menu. The friend rice can use some help bit overall it's decent.“
