47 Best Soup in Seattle

“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!“

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

“I get my Little Ting's food from their Greenwood location. I've ordered from Little Ting's twice, and both times I've been very satisfied with the food I got! The potstickers and buns (northern-style dumplings) are delicious--I particularly like the pork and Napa cabbage potstickers. They send small containers of chili oil and soy sauce to use on the dumplings, and this is a great addition! If you're a vegetarian, there are veggie options for the dumplings (don't know if it's vegan but it's definitely vegetarian). It's wonderful to have an authentic dumpling shop in the neighborhood! I'll be back. A lot. Highly recommended!!! (If you want to order delivery, you can order via DoorDash.)“

“This restaurant is located right at the main entrance to the Summit building of the Seattle Convention Center. It has a large patio that opens onto the entry courtyard. I had talked to several people who ate there prior to my visit, and they all said the food was excellent but was very expensive. Quite true. I feel like this isn’t just an expense due to convenience, but because the food and service is very good. If you look at the fine print on the menu picture I uploaded, you’ll see a statement about how they pay staff and that a 20% gratuity is included in all bills.

I went with a friend. We sat at a cute two person table on the patio. The staff did a great job of accommodating for my friend’s allergy. We shared an asparagus dip and house-made potato chip appetizer; it was incredibly delicious, but about half our chips were crumbs that were impossible to dip, but when we asked for more chips, the server had more brought out without quibbling.

I had the Caesar salad, which was huge and very fresh. I had a local cider from Yonder along with it. My friend had the chicken parmigiana, which was huge. She gave me a piece of her chicken, and it was very good.“

“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“

“I've been to Migoto a few times with my husband and we have consistently enjoyed my experiences. The atmosphere is super cozy and the service is friendly and attentive. Every roll and dish I've had has been good, with the Samurai and Caterpillar rolls being standouts. The Japanese cocktails are also a highlight, especially the Lady Apple made with nigiri - definitely worth trying. We will definitely keep returning.“

“We absolutely loved the food, the people, and the history - what an experience! Thank you for an unforgettable night!“

“Although hot pot is known for their meats, Chengdu Memory is incredibly accommodating for vegans. All the soups have a meat base, including the mushroom, BUT you can request it with a water base instead. Additionally, waiters will double check and ask you if you have any dietary restrictions ALONG with the menu having a dietary restriction option! I’d recommend Chengdu because of how helpful the staff are and the abundance of tofu and veggie options. You can also eat with your Omni friends since they can give you split broths!

“Side quest for Hawaiian food is always comforting, and Kauai Family Restaurant is the spot for it. They’ve got all your Hawaiian favorites on the menu. I ordered a couple of the combos and some katsu—everything was solid. Some items were a bit on the salty side for my taste, but still enjoyable. It wasn’t too busy when I went, so the food came out pretty quick. The vibes inside really made you feel like you were in Hawaii. Definitely check their hours before you go, since they’re mostly open just for lunch and early afternoon.“

“This place has a special place in my heart. I've enjoyed the restaurant a few times on my own but me and my friend went in on the dia de los muertos parade event and it just felt *right*. Chips and queso is so good. The tacos are always good. Gotta say, the potato taco is my favorite. They also serve two soups and who doesn't love a warm cup of soup? It is a little pricey but it's worth the hype.“

“Delicious!!!!! Their food is HOT so be forewarned but it is soooo delicious.“

“The food was fresh and tasty! The space is bright and roomy.“

“New restaurant, good food on Alki!“

“First time eating here.

The dumplings and spicy noodle with beef & brisket , meatballs was good portion and lots of flavor!

The menu is easy to order and lots of options you can customize your own bowl of noodles. Pick from toppings, soup , and sides.

Best noodle place I had in while !“

“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’m super picky about my pho broth after spending so much money on flavorless white broth (especially for chicken) around cap hill but this place does not disappoint!! Large portion of meat for the price and the cream puff is always appreciated :) they’re also very fast and efficient with to go orders for anyone looking to grab and go!“

“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.“

“Aunthentic Chinese Mandarin food NOT Americanized Prepare to be surprised & pleased!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Came by on a quick lunch break and enjoyed my experience. I had the Hue style beef soup. Everything was very tasty and kept me warm in the Seattle rain. I liked the variety of meat and the spicy soup base gave me a lovely numbing mouth feel. I will say I think they accidentally gave me lettuce instead of cilantro, or I could’ve been mistaken. Either way, this is a great spot.“

“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 was expecting this place to be so much better. I’m not saying it’s bad but my biggest complaint is that the pies were not even close to being hot enough. I knew these were not going to be made from start to finish at order but they were barely warm. If that aspect changed I’d probably go back but until I hear from someone else I need my food HOT!“

“I love the food, and the owner was very kind hearted.

I bought chicken sandwich, chicken platter, lentil soup and gyro plater, all are very delicious. The owner was very generous and kind hearted. I did not have enough money to pay because I forgot my wallet at home and he let me pay the next day😍.
Thank you sooo much Mohammad, may God reward you and your family greatly.
I am very happy costumer.“

“I love skewers but haven’t been able to find any quick spots in Seattle, so was excited to have stumbled onto this place!

The chicken cutlet was crispy and delicious, although the chicken skin wasn’t very crunchy at all. Definitely not the best skewers I’ve had, but it was solid and nice for a quick meal. I’ll be returning to try other skewers! Service was friendly, although it was pretty busy so took longer than we expected for our two skewers.“

“Hidden Gem with the Best Phở in Seattle**

Phở Vietnam is the definition of a hole-in-the-wall treasure. Tucked away in Ballard, this unassuming little spot delivers *some of the most soul-warming phở you’ll find anywhere in Seattle*. The broth is rich, clear, and deeply flavorful—the kind that’s clearly been simmering for hours, maybe days. It’s comfort in a bowl.

The portions are generous, the ingredients are fresh, and the service is always quick and kind. It’s the kind of place where locals become regulars, and one visit is all it takes to understand why.

No frills, no gimmicks—just pure, perfect phở that hits the spot every single time. If you're a fan of Vietnamese cuisine (or just really, really good soup), this place is not to be missed.

“My first time in and really didn’t have many expectations but was blown away by the friendly staff. Ordered papaya salad w/ tofu. Tofu came fried to perfection in my book. Requested some fish sauce, the server asked if I would prefer fish dressing, big smile on my face :). Ordered a (banh-mi) sandwich w/ tofu, tofu was a little soft for my liking but had great flavor and a overly fair amount of ingredients, two thumbs up 👍. I received a side of fish dressing I used some chilly paste in it, the other server asked if I would like to have the chilly oil… ohh man was I happy with that suggestion!! Loved it!! Would recommend for an authentic flavor and palates. Will return and try more. Super excited to have a very good pho place here at the beach!! Thanks for doing what y’all doing there!!“

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

“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. ❤️❤️🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠“

“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 wonderful spot and a perfect stop after visiting Kubota Garden. The dining room was clean and spacious, and the service prompt and friendly. The bun bo hue was delicious and a welcome change from the salt bomb broths I’ve become accustomed to from Vietnamese noodle soups in Seattle. The flavors were nuanced and not too heavy or salty. I especially enjoyed the tender pork knuckle and the (homemade?) small meatballs flecked with what tasted and appeared to be makrut lime leaves. An easy place for kids - my 5 year old slurped up his plain pho.“

“?FOOD?: 8/10
Quality: This is a very nice Chinese Noodle place! We ordered a fried rice, and lamb with scallion! The food quality was better than I expected! They are not super oily and salty, I really like the fried nice, it has a nice satay touch. The lamb is very flavorful, and it does not taste overwhelming! We all loved them!

Appearance: They look great! They look appetizing and I loved the colors combination LOL

Portion size: Very generous portion, my friend cannot even finish her fried rice and I have to finish it for her! And 4 of us shared 3 main dishes and we were all full.

??‍ Service??‍: 7/10
Friendliness: The lady that served us is very nice and friendly! She is very kind and attentive! I love her!

Timeliness: Food arrived quite fast, we did not wait for too long and it came to us in nice and warm temperature.

Environment: Very clean and nice, Very old-fashioned Chinese noodle spot that looks almost the same as China. This is a very small restaurant and I think it is cute to dine in here!

Location: Great location! Right on the ave and they do not have a big sign so it might be a bit hard to know where they are. But it is obvious if you look closely!“

“We had shrimp Teriyaki and chicken and beef combo Teriyaki.
Both very good, the shrimp was slightly over cooked which is not bad but my preference is for it to be less dry like. The beef/chicken combo was very good, the chicken very tender with the just right amount of char giving it a very nice flavor. The beef was extra tender and tasty as well. I would come back to this place as service was good, service with a smile. The food came within a reasonable amount of time, not a long wait. Tables were nice and clean, no film residue which is pleasant to find. Nice neighborhood establishment.“

“Foods are authentic taste, staff is polite and eager to serve us during our meal. Restroom is clean and restaurant location is easy to reach in Fremont area. We recommend here ! 👍🏼🥳😊“

“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! ❤🤍💚“

“I've been a customer for years, and there's no mystery why I keep coming back. The shop is peaceful, spacious and well maintained. The broth is hearty, noodles and dressings are great, and the varieties are delicious. Thank you for many lovely, memorable meals!“

“Try the Obama Noodle...it’s really good!“

“I’m giving it five stars because it’s cheap and fast pho. It’s not amazing or anything it’s just good when you’re craving it yk. Also, the front door kept becoming slightly open so it would constantly blow cold air in. the other reviews said that it was lacking depth and i thought ‘well thats specific’ and didn’t think they were right. But surprisingly it’s a fitting word, the pho isn’t bad it’s just lacking depth.“

“Great food and great service I go there every time I visit my daughter“

“My review is going to be pretty narrow in focus (because I essentially get the same order every time), but I feel obligated to write it because I've gone here dozens of times.

As a vegetarian, the Kitsune Soup Udon is what I get every single time, and as someone who hasn't eaten a lot of Udon, I was surprised that such a simple dish was so tasty. Even with the bare minimum of soup, udon noodles and piece of aburaage (sweet tofu), I found it to be a dish I could eat over and over. Then I realized I was being too simplistic, and adding some toppings (especially chili oil), enhanced the dish even more.

I gave 3 stars for the service and atmosphere because it is essentially a buffet style where they hand the food to you across the counter before the register, and the atmosphere is pretty standard for a sit down restaurant. However neither of these things makes the experience worse, hence why I gave it 5 stars overall. The prices aren't cheap, but they aren't overly expensive either, and I feel like I'm getting my money's worth for the most part.

I don't want to say too much because my experience with the menu is very limited, but for my purposes this has been an outstanding Udon restaurant that I keep coming back to again and again. Definitely recommend if you're in the mood for simple, good Udon without a crazy price tag attached.“

“I do not like pho, or I did not like pho before visiting Pho Than Brothers. I had to come here for work with a client. This place has completely changed my view on it. Absolutely delicious food, and very quick service. I will for sure be back, and very soon.“

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

“If congee were a religion, this place would be the holy land. I came for a warm bowl of comfort and left questioning every other congee I’ve ever had.

The noodles? Silky little strands of happiness. The fish cakes? I would fight a small bear for another bite. And the chili oil? So good it probably has its own fan club.“

“I will keep it brief: Me before my smoothie = :( Me after my smoothie = :) Thank you for nurtuting my soul, Juicy Cafe!“

“I had just gotten off a stressful flight from Denver and had my cat with me. I saw open tables and I was hungry so I didn't think much of if. But the host was very welcoming and on top of everything, the environment was calm which was just what I needed for my cat. I ordered the TBLT and fries. It was excellent, especially the fries, they were cooked perfectly, the perfect crunch while still being soft inside. Whatever you order I suggest getting the fries with it. This was great. If I have to fly through seattle again I will eat here again.“
