Soup near Downey

“It was my first time visiting, One of the best clean and welcome Olive Garden restaurants I had visited. The service received from my waiter Jesus was excellent but the whole staff was constantly greeting us, asking if we were well served, the manager approached as well. Everyone was so polite and i really feel like bringing my family back to this location“

“The cheddar broccoli soup from here is delicious! I get it as a side when I get a sandwich and it goes well together, perfect meal. Not too much, but not too small just the right amount! Every sandwich I tried was the excellent, but I love the Buffalo chicken one! Try their soup you'll thank me later!“

“I have tried a variety of items on the menu. A few of my favorites include the Al pastor nachos , caldo de pollo, torta de milanesa and the chicken tacos de canasta. You can’t go wrong with anything you choose. Irene and Jose are both really nice and will accommodate most requests.“

“First time coming here, we ordered the kimchi fried rice, beef galbi plate, and grilled shrimp plate - it was all soo delicious! Probably the best kimchi fried rice I've ever had, and it had an overeasy egg! I got it to go but it was quick and made fresh. Will definitely be back!“

“Wow!!!! Hands down my new favorite Vietnamese restaurant. Their beef pho is delicious? and out of this world. I’ve been a big fan of pho ? and have been eating this dish for years just about everywhere I travel to when I’m out of state or in the mood for it here in the city. This is my new favorite spot for pho. Wish I can give them 10 stars because they deserve it.“

“The food and service at the new location are just as wonderful as the original location. I look forward to more of my favorite dishes coming over. For now, I am enjoying trying new dishes and the lunch specials are a great deal. The team members are extremely friendly/inviting, and I always enjoy their recommendations.“

“Craving some good and authentic Korean food, I found my way back to Jin Cook and as usual, it did not let me down.ITEM'S ORDERED:Sweet Potato Cheese Curry KatsuSpicy Braised Beef Short RibGarlic SuYukMilitary SoupTASTE:Let me first mention that I'm half Korean to add some credibility to my review :) ;) I will say that the Kimchi here is probably my favorite out of all places. That is mainly because it has a slightly sweeter flavor and less sour than others that usually have that more pickled flavor. I was told that it's the owner's mothers recipe so that just makes it all the better.The Spicy Braised Beef Short Rib aka Galbi-jjim is a dish I've had before and is one of those flavors that just wants to make you keep on eating. The only thing that slows you down is how hot it is with it being in the stone pot. It's so savory, a little sweet and has a slight amount of heat. I will say that I do have a good tolerance for spicy food though. Besides the meat which is so tender, I really enjoy the pumpkin and rice cakes in the dish. Unless you are with 3 or more people, you'll most likely have leftovers.Sweet Potato Cheese Curry Katsu is a unique variation that I don't think I've seen at other places. There's a subtly sweetness that goes well with the cheese, pork, and crunch. Be careful when you take your first bite, it comes out and stays very hot.The Military Soup is one of those really comforting soups that'll make you feel good if you're under the weather. It's actually pretty spicy so be warned. The pork belly that came had a real nice flavor that adds to the dish overall.It was my first time having the Garlic SuYuk and it's as tasty as it is to look at. The pork is cooked perfectly and the garlic paste that it comes with has so much savory flavor, with the right amount of salt. I could really see this garlic paste tasting good on so many other dishes in general. The chili paste is not really hot but provides a slight chili flavor adding to everything else.SERVICE:The service was exceptional. Getting all the warm Korean welcoming vibes at this place just adds to the comfort food feel. They were really friendly and attentive the whole time.LOCATION & PARKING:They are basically located in a shopping plaza with an Albertson's so there is lots of parking. The interior is very comfy and warm with its abundant wood use making for a welcoming ambiance.If you are craving some delicious Korean cuisine you should definitely check this place out.“

“I have mixed feelings about this place. While it has been my go to spot on rainy days this past season, it's been a hit or miss. Sometimes it's like the best pho ever and other times the meat is really undercooked and the broth wasn't hot enough to cook it further which resulted in a rather rubbery experience. All in all, I think I will continue to come back as everything else was enjoyable.“

“My friend came from Tijuana to visit me ??‍♂️ and we found this amazing place?? NEW LOCATION, the food is amazing, VEGETERIAN NO PROBLEM i was really happy with the food, service is very friendly and they speak spanish tooI highly recomend this place?IOVE IT“

“Best beef noodle soup that is sanitary! I say this because there are some very yummy shops in SGV for beef noodle soup but your stomach would not appreciate them. Really generous with the meat and tendons. The broth is amazing and tastes super authentic. There can be a wait if you come around noon on weekends where they get the lunch rush. I would come here right after they open to dodge the wait. I overheard roughly 30 minutes wait when I was leaving so not sure how bad it could get. They also accept Apple Pay, credit cards, debit cards, and obviously cash.I genuinely love this place!! They also have 椰果奶茶(coconut milk tea??) that tastes reminiscent of 五十嵐in Taiwan (50 lan/Wushiland, but the coconut drink isn’t sold in their US locations). A bit sweet but maybe they can adjust it down. I just watered mine down and it tasted great.“

“It was my first time coming here and let me tell you it's amazing. The portions are good and the service and atmosphere is super friendly. Such nice people helping you out. I would definitely be coming back here again. Their thai tea is a must to get!“

“Been here a few times and honestly, for the price, it's a great place to go to when you're craving pho. We usually get the beef steak for $8.89 or the chicken bowl for $7.87, which is honestly a steal in this economy! Bowl upgrades are only $3 more, which I say is totally worth it. The pho tastes so clean and with a deep flavor. Personally, I think the pho is very worth it for it's price; I can't get enough of it. In addition, the service is phenomenal. The guy in the front is always so welcoming and talkative when we come visit - we really enjoy it. Definitely visit this hidden gem when you're in the Cypress area - you won't regret it (:“

“Denny is enough of a reason to go here as any! Great service and he's someone who clearly cares about his customers (checking in with everyone and even helping someone retrieve their phone from an Uber). The atmosphere was comfortable - not fancy, but homey. I'm veg, so not the best judge of the food (I heard the beef soup noodles were great), but I enjoyed the food as well.“

“The food is 10/10 but the crew is what really makes this place one of my favorite spots to go to. These are some of the kindest most hard working people I’ve met. It’s a great opportunity not only to enjoy incredible food but also support these great humans.“

“Nice local Vietnamese restaurant that I've come to a few times. Staff is a friendly and the food was quite delicious! I had some beef spring rolls and a vermicelli dish with meatballs. Both were very good and I had to bring one of the spring rolls home as it was a lot of food. Would recommend trying it out if you're craving some Vietnamese cuisine.“

“Treated so great, Great customer service, prices are great everything honestly hit perfect. We where just stopping off the freeway in a trip and this place was a Gem. Highly recommend we might come out just to try it again.Guy behind the counter really cares about setting a great environment.And super quick too!“

“The best service I've seen at a Shabu place!I'm allergic to peanuts and eggs, which most Shabu places I've found have not been very accommodating. But Miss Shabu has the most friendly staff as they wrote on the menu notes on what foods I'm allergic to and which ones are good. They were very efficient with setting up our table of 16 and were flexible when we had less people than expected. The food was really good for a decent price. For dinner and drinks and tea, we spent about $50 and got 2 different soup bases, had many different types of sides, and plates on top of plates of meat. Definitely recommend this Shabu place if you were looking for one in Buena Park.“

“The beef chow fun is literally, no exaggeration, the best plate of noodles I've ever had in my life. Not only the kind of flavorful that goes through your whole body, but the beef was tender as butter. The hot and sour soup was also exemplary. I'm kind of a man of habit and it takes a lot to add a restaurant to my regular favorites rotation; Fu Plus jumped to the top of the list and it's likely to stay there. Holy cow.“

“Always such a great meal here. Duck soup is hard to come by and this place always delivers. The owners are very friendly and knowledgeable about their craft. My family goes here at least once a week! Highly recommended. Their portion is big and price is good too!“

“Green onion pancakes are crispy, flaky, and fragrant. Dry crispy pork spare ribs with spices, amped up with chopped garlic and jalapenos. My favorite every time mala spicy prime beef noodle soup, tasty sauté of mushroom medly with Chinese celery - a perfect accompaniment to spicy dishes and their house specialSpicy noodles for those of us who like it hot! I'm so glad they have good service and consistently delicious dishes!“

“I am never disappointed when I order food from Appu's Cafe. I have tried almost everything on the menu and found it to be delicious, a good value for the price, and always ready on-time when I order online. The staff is kind and pleasant and very accomodating (sometimes I need to ask for the spice level to go down a few levels!). Excellent value all the way around!“

“We frequent this place often. My favorite is The Spicy Beef clear noodle vegetable soup (Yuk Kae Jung) is very god here. Bibimbab is another very good dish. Their food all around is pretty good. Small mom and pop kind of place. Sometime we dine in and other times we order to go. Always good food and never had any issues of the years.“

“This place is an old school Korean restaurant but the food is excellent. As someone who recently moved from Koreatown LA to a gateway city, I had to find my go to Korean restaurant and I think this is one of my favorite places. We like to get the Uhndaegoo jorim (braised black cod). Some of our other favorites are the dahk gae jang, as well as the bohtsahm. The atmosphere is very modest and simple, but this is the kind of place that suits me.I highly recommend this place both for Korean traditionalists as well as non-Koreans who just want some really good quality Korean food.“

“great food. we ordered phở for a cool late morning & sat outside so it was perfect. this is northern vnese style phở (which is just a little salty for my taste) but I appreciate the clear & not overly spiced broth. it's a straight forward & authentically honest bowl of phở. there are fresh spices, good quality beef & super tender meat fall-of-the-bone pork ribs. so good & so satisfying. vnse coffee (café sữa đá) is also right on the money! btw, for those who need it, you can load the soup up with siracchia & have a perfect hangover-buster ? you're welcome ? service is prompt & friendly - price is decent but not cheap. all in all, a winner for local norwalk & neighboring city. we'll definitely be back & highly recommend pho anvi. we need to keep good businesses around for fellow foodies.“

“A soft tofu restaurant located in the Buena Park area of ​​Los Angeles. In LA, it is a Korean restaurant as famous as 'BCD Bukchang-dong Soft Tofu' and is a restaurant where you have to wait. There is a jangseung standing right at the entrance, giving a Korean feel. The interior is spacious, and as expected from a specialty restaurant, there are 14 different types of soft tofu. In addition, you can taste a wide variety of Korean food, including pot rice, bulgogi, ribs, galbitang, kimchi stew, naengmyeon, pork cutlet, and bossam. The food tastes the same as eating it in Korea and is very delicious. There are a variety of side dishes and they are all delicious. In the case of soft tofu, there are as many as seven levels of spiciness, so you can choose to suit your taste. Since the rice is served in a stone pot, it is nice to be able to cook rice by pouring water into the stone pot after taking out the rice. This is a restaurant I want to visit again.“

“A very good place if you want to try out Henan food, reasonably priced, not many choices, check the food before you go. But I bet most of the customers are the same people who go there often. Like it.Look at the code dish, Enough for a big “

“Great spot for Korean casual / comfort food! For a party of 7, we were left feeling satisfied with the amount of food we ordered. Very affordable and amazing service! We got seated instantly as it wasn't busy on a Saturday night. What we ordered: - 2 steamed pork belly set (bossam) - 1 seafood pancake - sides of rice to carb up - 1 terra & 2 jinro is back to drink! The highlight of our meal was actually the sides. The kimchi and radish kimchi were so good that we asked for multiple refills. We also enjoyed the seafood pancake. Would love to come back and try the soup (tang) as the restaurant name speaks for itself!!“

“A small local business offering Taiwanese food. The interior is older and aged. The parking directly in front can be a problem but there is more parking offered further down into the shopping center.The staff is nice and friendly. We’ve been going here for years and I feel like perhaps they have a new chef because all the flavors seemed off in some way.The menu has a lot to offer so you are sure to find something you like.“

“I like this shop very much. The beef texture is sufficient (I ordered half gluten and half meat), the noodles are chewy (I ordered thick noodles), the soup is thick (but a bit too salty), and the side dishes are delicious and reasonably priced!Paired with Hantian Lemon Aiyu, it’s another wonderful meal!There is too much clutter in the store environment, which makes it feel a bit oppressive.“

“Small restaurant/ cafe that specializes in noodles and dumplings. And more specifically, shanxi knife-cut noodles. The place feels family owned and operated and this was reflected in the friendly, warm service. I came in on a cold evening, looking for some warm soup. So I ordered the beef noodle soup. I ended choosing the thinner, hand stretched noodles (as apposed to the thicker knife cut variety), because it seemed like it would go better in the soup. The noodles were very well done and chewy. Great texture to go along with the comforting spicy broth. I also ordered fish and leek dumplings. Great flavor and structure. I took most to go because the two dishes I ordered was a lot of food. I enjoyed the vibe here. While I was eating, there were two ladies preparing dumplings off to the side. It reminded me of my mom and aunt when I visit my parents. So there was a nostalgic factor. Like a lot of other restaurants in the area that I really enjoy, this place feels like a great value for delicious noodles and dumplings because of their great selection and very reasonable prices.“

“Came here after a long road trip with a big group and had an amazing experience! Great menu selection, and server helped recommend what to order, what dishes, vegetables, meats, noodles etc. Food came out quickly, they gave us a little cart for everything. They frequently came to clear empty dishes and help if we needed to order more. I highly recommend the scallion crispy pancake! The sauces are great, even better when mixed. The soup tasted great and we took some home too :) Highly recommend this place.“

“Not AYCE but lots of side dishes including cheese corn, poached eggs, another egg dish, bean paste soup or kimchi stew. Very good and attentive service and excellent staff. The unmarinated beef was the best. The chadol was a little tough. But the rice paper, pickled radish, dipping sauce, and salad made the meal delicious.“

“I bring my friends a lot. And people mostly know this place. Can feel pretty decent traditional pho. I'm a regular. My favorite Vietnamese rice noodle restaurant. When I was having a hard time after going camping, I went and ate to cheer myself up and finished packing up my belongings from the camping trip that day... It gets me full energy ♥️ ?“

“Taken a few friends here as they heard of this place being so good. I've been here before on a dumpling crawl. The pies here are filled with meat packed with flavor and juices. You'll have to vent the pie before biting into it or risk squirting your neighbor when the juices escape the pie.“

“the staff is so kind, and try to save you money by giving you the lunch combo if the dish you order is available in that form.we have enjoyed the bean curd sheets with mustard greens, eggplant, general tso's chicken (mushrooms), sizzling tofu, soft tofu with crispy beans, and ended with the sesame balls. what a delightful meal.“

“Located on second level of Lincoln Hotel, free garage parking. Quiet, romantic, great for a date spot or intimate place to grab a drink. No crowds, full extensive menu. Drinks are on the expensive side for the pour, but a full bar. Outside seating has heat lamps. Great place to have a cozy chat, owner is friendly.“

“Been wanting to try this place out. I got a to-go order and ordered the combo number 1, spring rolls and Thai tea. The soup is really good! I love the broth and it's probably one of the best I've ever tasted so far. The spring rolls were good. I wasn't a huge fan of the peanut sauce, but it wasn't terrible. And the Thai tea tasted pretty good! It was a little pricey, more than i had hoped to spend, but mostly worth it when im dying from a cold and want pho lol. I'd recommend this place to people wanting pho and I'd definitely come again. When ordering, the guy on the phone was very nice and when paying as well. All in all, I had a great experience.“

“Have enjoyed coming to this place for years. Hot tofu soup, and bulgogi on a cold day hits the spot anytime. The pricing may seem a little high, but for the amount of food and quality taste it’s well worth it. Highly recommend giving them a try when in the Monterey Park area.“

“We've been going her since the 80's. Best Chinese food in town. Going to miss the place when they close all the business in that center for some new construction. I hope they re-open somewhere else. We love all the staff, food & simple ambiance ?“

“Plenty kinds of noodles. It's authentic restaurant. You can pick up the slides and take out. The flavor of tomato soup is rich and sweet. The beef inside is soft and tender. And the volume is soooo big and full. The lamp kebab is also good. The dining experience is good and the food delivery speed is fast. The environment here is clean and bright. It is a large noodle shop with many types of soups to choose from, such as braised tomato soup with oil, pork bones and golden soup. waitYou can choose the type of noodles from thin noodles to wide noodles similar to shaved noodles. There are also a variety of side dishes and drinks to choose from.Tomato Beef Noodles have a strong tomato flavor. There is a lot of beef and it is very tender. The overall portion is so large that two people can eat one bowl. The oil is a bit oily but very fragrant.The mutton skewers are very fragrant and the dipping sauce is also very fragrant.The environment is very clean and bright, and the food is served very quickly. Recommended“

“A good friend and I decided to have dinner here. I have to tell you, since the pandemic, I have slowly been going back to old favorites, and this is one of them. I really looked forward to trying this place again. Would it be the same? Would it be better, or worse? Well I have to say that they did not disappoint. I don't know if I missed coming here or if they just got that much better, but it was good!We definitely got there just in time because once we were seated, the place started getting very busy.The service was great in spite of how busy it got. George was our server and he was very helpful and accomidateing. Needless to say that what we ordered was outstanding.I definitely forgot how much I enjoyed this place. No question on whether or not I'm coming back because that's a big yes.Parking: Plenty of parking. No problem finding a spot.“

“Been coming here for years. My go to spot when u want something to hit the spot. The place is always busy from open to close, so expect to wait. Parking is horrible but the Food is excellent at this location. They have several other locations, but this is hands down the best. Things to order - House Special Rice Noodle with or without soup.Wonton egg noodle soup.Beef chow fun.Chinese Donut Their Satay sauce is the best - a good amount of spice and packed full of flavor.“

“I was really craving veggie egg rolls. So I decided to try Jin China Bistro. I was not disappointed. They were fresh and perfectly crunchy on the outside and the cabbage and carrot were crunchy on the inside. That and some sweet and sour with hot mustard……well I wish I’d bought more. I also ordered my favorite hot and sour soup. I have to say it was extraordinary. I had to add some chili because I like my soup spicy but other than that I couldn’t put it down. The dried fungus made it especially delicious and extremely healthy. I’m a bit of a foodie and you can tell a lot about a restaurant by its egg rolls and soup and I will definitely be going back to Jin China Bistro! It is also very beautiful and the perfect place for a date. The food with the ambience and friendly service makes this a 5 star restaurant in my opinion.“

“Takes a little effort to get to know the server to get good service. Maybe it was because we ordered everything for 4 people. The pho tai and dac biet were not pictured but the rest was good. Best was the jackfruit salad. I asked for the fermented shrimp sauce and she was kind enough to give me some.“

“The best birria in all of Los Angeles! Made with love and goat as it should be done.My family has been visiting this establishment since '89, they met the previous owner and now I believe that the nephew is the one who maintains the perfect recipe for Baldomero birria.Find your table, pick up your drink and enjoy!The best broth for any occasion.The only annoying thing is that only cash is accepted.The best birria in LA hands down! Made in the heart of LA (the real LA) and with goat not beef.Find your table, pick a drink & enjoy!Best soup for any occasion!Only downside is that it is cash only.“

“This is where we go for special occasions when we want solid Korean food, particularly savory soups.But that is not to say the other stuff on the menu is not worth trying.Some of the dishes deserve special recognition, because they are not typical (in my experience) or because they are exceptional. Not typical could include the Yeolmu Boribap, which is daikon radish greens mixed with barley rice and other ingredients. Very tasty and filling, even if I can't recall having it elsewhere. We really like it. Seasonal? Maybe.Exceptional could include the Doenjang soup/chigae, which we all agree is maybe the best we have tried in years. It is a treat. Many regard this dish, served elsewhere, as a pedestrian food, ordinary and a staple, but here it is elevated.The Chunggukjang is a more rustic version of the Doenjang soup/chigae, and it is very delicious. For the uninitiated, this is a stew made from something like (Japanese) natto, and it isn't great for a hot day, but rather, awesome for cold weather dining. Delicious, not for the delicate.In sum, this is a mom-and-pop style place, not some corporate chain, exactly the kind of place we like to support. People in the area who seek good homestyle Korean food will know this place and appreciate what they do here.“

“So we stumbled upon this place and it was amazing. The basil chicken 10/10 and the green curry. Was. To. Die. For. I highly recommend you to try this place. The staff was very friendly. We are Thai food enthusiasts and they did not disappoint. We live in Vegas and were out there to see friends. What a good experience. We will be back.Vegetarian options: They can make just about any noodle dish veggie or curry.Parking: You park there close to the doorKid-friendliness: Ya sure bring your kids why not ?“

“Another place I go to regularly and somehow never reviewed. This little place is the definition of a hole in the wall with fantastic home-made tasting food. The kimchi stew tastes as good as the ones my friends' moms make. They always use very ripe kimchi. Their dumpling soup is also very good with broth that actually has flavor. Their meats are all well marinated and the stone pot bi bim bap is awesome! They also give you tons of side dishes. Their prices are also much lower than most of the places nearby. The Aunties don't speak a lot of English but they're always so kind. Love this place. **Tip: if you prefer white rice make sure to ask or they'll automatically give you the rice with stuff like beans.“

“They deliver a delightful Bibimbap experience. The dish boasts a colorful array of fresh vegetables, succulent marinated beef, and a perfectly fried egg. The harmony of flavors, coupled with the interactive mixing at the table, makes it a satisfying and flavorful choice for Korean cuisine enthusiasts. The gochujang sauce adds a spicy kick, rounding out this well-executed classic. Highly recommended for a tasty journey into Korean flavors.“

“We love pho alley for a quick bite to go. We came in the other night to place a to go order and it took about 45 minutes and most of our food wasn’t very warm, but we would still come back. I just suggest ordering ahead of time. The house pho and garlic noodles + shaken beef are our favorites here. The shaken beef is tender and the sauce is delicious. I love the beef broth the pho comes in.“
