19 Best Soup in Madison

“The Globe is one of my go-to, favorite restaurants here in Madison. I highly recommend their Chili Buff and Korean BBQ with Rice (I've heard the Korean BBQ Noodles are awesome as well). I've had their vegetarian and chicken variations, and both have been flavorful, well-cooked (the chicken is very good and doesn't have chewy or "ick" textures). They're also very helpful with allergy restrictions, including peanut allergies. Additionally, they have extensive vegetarian options and alternatives for their menu items. If you haven't gone here before (delivery, carry-out, and/or in-person dining) I'd definitely recommend trying their dishes!“

“Great atmosphere, service, food and drinks. Glad to have found this place!“

“Overall the cuisine is excellent! Staff is friendly and the restaurant has a wonderful vibe. Indoor and outdoor dining is available. This is our go to restaurant in Madison.“

“look at the picture of the BBQ Brisket sandwich and then order one and see what it looks like 🤣🤣🤣 pathetic portions. I was so ready to devour a giant sandwich, this thing ended up being so tiny. also y'all gave me the wrong lettuce“

“PHENOMENAL PHO!
This was a great follow up after the botanical gardens, especially after going to the Hmong garden & Thai exhibit. The restaurant smells amazing even before you enter. Sweet spicy flavors accented with citrus lime were delicious to kids & adults alike. And the portions are enormous. Great value. Great prices. You'll be bringing home leftovers! Yum!!!

Kid-friendliness: Family style sharing totally ok! Try a little of everything!“

“First of all, the most amazing customer service I've ever had. The food is perfectly seasoned, very flavorful and so good I couldn't stop licking my lips. All is made with the hands of God(I'm serious, I swear I saw the lord).“

“Great place for hearty and comforting, delicious noodle soups! The service is fast and you get a large portion of the soup with lots of protein hard to finish in one go. We had the rice noodle soup with bang bang chicken (hot, beware) and coconut red curry flavored rice noodle soup (mild, easy). Both had excellent comforting flavors with a good heat. Will highly recommend, especially during winters!“

“Took a friend out here to treat her for being helpful since this is her favorite place.

I honestly can't think of any complaints. We were seated immediately, and the food came out rather quickly as well (?)

All in all, it was a decent meal. My friend said the same.“

“I totally love the Singapore Mei fun! The BEST I've ever had. Great service and polite staff. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Muy buena comida y atención !!!“

“It’s an Olive Garden, plain and simple. You want pasta, you’ll get it. You want moderate pricing, you’ll get it. Walked in and waited for 15 minutes, got to our table and started destroying our free bread and salad (get at least 1 salad to help balance the demonic amount of delicious carbs you’re gonna be ingesting).

We got shrimp alfredo, chicken alfredo, and shrimp carbonara. The carbonara is my personal preference as it’s more creamy compared to alfredo but they’re all pretty good.

I will say the staff here are super nice and they really made the experience way better. Asking lots of questions and always following up for more bread, salad, more bread, water, drinks, and more bread.“

“I’ve always loved Muramoto! Can’t go wrong for fantastic sushi!“

“Wow - what a pleasant dining option at the Memorial Union! It offers both made to order sandwiches and salads as well as grab and go items. I was totally impressed with the quinoa black salad I ordered for lunch - excellent mix of textures and the flavors of the components complimented each other. There are no tables at Carte to dine-in, but its not difficult to find a table elsewhere in the Union (Strada, the Rathskeller, the Terrace).“

“Nice atmosphere, the servers were very friendly and attentive. The Pork Blood, Beef Stomach and Soybean Sprout Stew wasn’t for me personally, but still tasted very good, and the Ox Tongue with Tripe Chili Sauce was amazing.

The only slight criticism I have is that the portion sizes are ludicrously huge. Seriously, if you’re thinking of eating here, bring some friends because a bowl of that stew could feed a family of 6.“

“I love this place. Dumplings are good, noodles are good and the buns are good. Ive only gone a couple of times, and only when I have the money since its a bit pricey, but it if def worth it. It tastes really good and you get a good amount of food.“

“I’ve taken my 1 and 3 year olds here twice now, as a solo parent outing, and both times the staff have gone above and beyond to help make everything easier for me while I manage getting my kids situated. The first time they brought my food out to my table after they saw my hands were totally full and this time the manager brought two cookies out to my kids. That was so unexpected and my 3 year old felt so special! Thank you so much for being a wonderful place for me to take my kids to!“

“I love panera bread the sandwiches is good“

“Outstanding service and food. Matti was exceptional. He observed from my hat that I was a veteran.and thanked me for my service. We are from out of town but will make a point to return. Thank you Panera breads and Matti you made our day.“

“Excellent customer service experience with them today; they corrected a mistake that WASN'T EVEN THEIR FAULT!!!

DoorDash delivery driver picked up my order, then STOPPED - a few blocks away, for >20 min (I'm 12 min from the Panera....).

Seeing the delay in my delivery time I called the driver, who was rude and admitted he was stopped because he was "waiting to pick up a friend from work". When I responded to ask if he legit stopped, after picking up my food, he yelled back at me "what do you f'ing want to do about it?!"

At that point, the order was on track to be in the driver's car >40 min, so the hot food would be cold and nasty, AND, I was worried he would tamper or mess with our food out of spite.

I called the Panera directly and talked with Paul (or Paulo?), who was the manager, and he apologized for the botched delivery, cancelled the order, and immediately had a new one made up and sent out (with a new driver). He called DoorDash on my behalf and gave me their number to file a report for this driver.

Replacement order was fast & fresh.

AND - the DoorDash rep confirmed that drivers are NOT supposed to stop after picking up food deliveries to run errands, etc. LOL

Give this place a try, and don't be afraid to advocate for yourself if you have a mistake in your order (vs. just ranting in a review). They genuinely wanted to make things right, and they did.“
