I'd never been to this location before so we decided to head over. This location is quite busy, but service was fast. Ordered the new avocado cease and some soup. It was all delicious as always. Service is friendly and always efficient when we go to a Cafe Zupas. Worst part for me is the parking lot. There's cars coming from all areas so be cautious. It's a busy spot to be. read more

I really like the food here. It seems fresh with lots of flavor and large portions. I do not like the way your food gets set upon top in front of everyone's face, pushed along to the register. You end up standing and waiting, while watching your food sit there, for a very long time if it is busy. They need more registers or a different process for checking out. read more

Nice atmosphere and great service but the lettuce in the salad was limp and brown which was disappointing. We will give it another try in the future and hope for a better outcome read more

Last time there I did not leave a great review, (lukewarm-to-cold soup, sandwich had lots of bread and little meat). This time we tried take-out because my friend likes their salads. I was pleasantly surprised that a take-out salad would be so fresh. They also included extra dressing without asking. They still struggled with the soup. 2 different orders and both were incorrect. At least the temperature was acceptable. Their soups are pretty good so we ate them without much fuss. Just check your order before you leave. read more

Used my $5 complimentary coupon for first time customers new to their second Surprise store for an online order & pickup. Tried their half BBQ glaze chicken salad which comes with a roll and chocolate dipped strawberry. All for $3.49 after discount. It was fantastic! Fresh, flavorful, and the perfect size. read more

My first time there and the line staff seemed to think I had the menu memorized. When I asked for a sandwich and some soup I was told that I had to order that down by the soup station, with no acknowledgment of my sandwich order. While I waited to be acknowledged at the soup station I asked the person behind me where I would get my sandwich and was told that it would be down at the register when I completed my order, and it was. But the service staff was very impersonal. The turkey club was pretty good but looked nothing like the menu board and the garbanzo vegetable soup was mostly broccoli. I wasn't impressed. read more

I'm addicted to Cafe Zupas and order at least once a week. IT IS SO GOOD. Everything I've tried there I love. My favorites are the southwest potato soup and the chicken chipotle salad. It's nice to be able to get something relatively healthy, not overpriced like Panera, and is actually DELICIOUS and good quality. Oh and if you're craving something sweet, the chocolate mousse cake is ahhmazzzing! read more

It is not obvious when it is closed. Every single light is on! The order board lights are on!! The overhead lights in the drive thru lanes are on! When you tell the manager they should have a "Closed" sign,, she says the hours are posted on the door. They are, in 1 inch letters on a glass window and very difficult to see in the dark. You may have lost a costumer. Hopefully, the management will respond to this. read more

I hadn't been to a Cafe Zupas in a couple of years. I was in the mood for something different for lunch. I noticed that in Surprise on Bell Rd, there are some new restaurants being built not too far from Sam's Club. I went for the Southwest Avacado Bowl.House-Chopped Mixed Greens, Rice, Roasted Chicken, Grape Tomatoes, Black Olives, Tri-Color Peppers, Fire Roasted Corn, Black Beans, Avocado, Tortilla Strips, Goat Cheese, Pumpkin Seeds, Roasted Tomatillo Dressing. It comes with a little roll and a hand dipped chocolate Strawberry. I desent size salad that was tasty and filling. Clean restaurant with a friendly staff. I'll keep the "Cafe" in mind when I'm ready for different lunch mood. read more

Yummmm! Delicious Mediterranean Bowl and the Sunshine Shot drink is amazing. My daughter enjoyed her grilled cheese and chicken tenders. The price is well worth the portion and quality in my opinion. Love the complimentary chocolate strawberry and bread sides. I am SO excited to have this healthy option close to home. The new location in Surprise has a very friendly staff. Our family will definitely be back. I'm due with my baby next week... this might be a winner for what I choose my "reward meal" to be after giving birth, lol! read more

Café Zupas - Salad Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

Most unorganized. Bowls of soup are poured before sandwiches are made. Luke warm/cold soup. Not sure if it's the kids working or just how the system is broken at this Zupas. Coming to the table with a tray of chocolate dipped strawberries, no plate for the table (4 ppl). read more

I was really excited to try this place, but it turned out to be complete garbage and a waste of $40. Small salad for the price, and the chicken had the taste and texture of refrigerated pre cooked chicken you get from the grocery store. The sandwich was much worst. The "turkey" had a slimey texture and the flavor of that Carl Buddig turkey from the deli meat section of the grocery store that's extremely low quality and available for $0.75. D I S G U S T I N G Threw it all away and ended up wasting even more money on uber eats. Don't waste your money for such low standards. read more

I like this Zupas. It is a little pricey but it usually makes 2 meals for me so it's ok. I like the Cobb salad and the pesto chicken sandwich. If you have the app you can get pretty cool things for points fairly quickly. read more

Always take forever when there's 0 to little people being served inside. Missing items and attitude always. Don't recommend this one.

Really enjoyed our first visit at the other location, but coming here we were disappointed that we didn't get any more than what felt like a mere table-spoonful of protein in the sandwich we chose for our choose 2 combo. Really cheaping out on sandwich meat served. read more

Our first visit to Cafe Zupas. The service was a five. The servers were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Very good customer service. The need to improve: There was the long hair in our salad and warm tomato basil soup. The cashier was apologetic and made us a new salad but we lost our appetite. Please increase the temperature of the tomato basil. The flavor was great! The broccoli cheese was good and hot. The food portions could be more. Your competitor down the street that serves only salad offers a similar salad (compared to your half) with a better value. We will be back to try your food again. Just giving you an honest review. read more

Usually obsessed with zupas, but today my salad bowl was half empty and a tiny scoop of meat that cost me extra, I paid $17 in total for this baby bowl of salad. If you are going to charge me that much for a salad, please make sure it's more than half a serving of food read more

Café Zupas - Chipotle glazed salad - Salad Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

So very sad. This is the 2nd time this has happened watch out the regular or bigger cup of chocolate strawberries you know that cost 17 $ they never give you the correct size. Then when asked about try and tell you it's the lid that makes it look bigger. No sorry you're wrong. read more

Love the food. Great salads soups and bowels. Ordered several times since opened. BUT..twice now with recent orders they have forgot something with my takeout order and had to go back to get it corrected. So whoever verifying the finished orders isn't doing their job. Maybe you should have the person giving the p/u order go over with the customer before giving it to them. But for now I guess I'll have to pull everything out myself to make sure you guys are doing your job cause like I said I really like the food so do better read more

I could eat here everyday. We did a pick up order, I think it took longer for us to drive down the road than it did for the order to be ready. Food was hot and fresh, ready to go! I had the brisket grilled cheese, with no munster, add brie, and sub the Italian spread. Accompanied by the mushroom bisque. I couldn't stop eating it, and had planned to save half since I got the soup as well! I am so looking forward to going back. read more

The staff is always so friendly and helpful! We really enjoy the fresh options and the variety they offer!

Incorrect order, ordered a cali Cobb salad, it was missing the egg, avacado, bacon and hardly any lettuce, I paid $13 for this, the store just opened and they can't even get the orders correct right, disappointed and probably won't be back or recommend, why can't places get your order right? read more

My experience was excellent. The food was so good and there was an employee named Tantine who was very friendly and accommodating I specifically asked her name so I could leave feedback. read more

Someone is obviously padding the reviews as every single person I know that has went there stated it was horrible. Dirty, food was incorrect, bland, missing ingredients etc. If you want the real reviews, go to Facebook Restaurant reviews Surprise. read more

I was in a rush but got in line because it appeared there was no line. I placed my own order with the drive thru screen, and even tipped the crew without knowing what my experience would be. Turns out they had 10+ cars parked waiting for their orders. The girl running out orders had no clue who she was giving orders to because the 4 "drive thru parking" spots weren't enough to occupy the 10+ people waiting for their food. I ordered a mini strawberry cup and waited for over 15 minutes. Ridiculous that they take your money and then make you wait so you CANT leave. I went inside for a refund and saw that the people waiting in the parked spots had been there for over 30 minutes. It took the manager over 5 minutes to figure out how to refund me, after he barely acknowledged my frustration. Have someone taking orders at the drive thru that will tell you it's a 30 minute wait rather than taking my money blindly. Will not come back to this location. read more

Oh goodness, where to begin... First off, I used to love Zupas. Their chicken enchilada soup, ultimate grilled cheese, and salads were my go-to. Recently, I've noticed a decline in their salad serving sizes. It's crazy that a full salad now fits into the three-compartment to-go container they use for a half salad. There's no difference! Tonight's adventure... I was thrilled when a Zupas location opened near the Surprise Civic Center, complete with a drive-thru. My first order was placed online for drive-thru pickup. I ended up waiting over 20 minutes at the drive-thru window (my bad for waiting so long). Finally, an employee noticed me - yay! Not a great first impression, but tonight's experience involved using their touch screen through the drive-thru. Now that I think about it - GROSS! Anyway, I placed my order. There was no payment option at the touch screen, and as soon as you open your app account, the screen refreshes, so no points for my purchase on my account. I drove up to the drive-thru window. AGAIN, no one was there. Okay, maybe they come to the parking spot to collect payment? I parked and went inside to pay because, let's face it, NO ONE was moving very fast inside. I paid for my order, mentioned that I was parked in Spot 3, and pointed out that there was no one at the window to take my payment. Payment was made, my order confirmed, I got my drink and went back to my car. Another 20 minutes went by, and the person who arrived at the drive-thru two cars behind me was sitting in Spot 2, and her order was brought out to her. Hmm... I went back inside, where the employees appeared to be sleepwalking with no clue what I was looking for. One touched a bag sitting on the pickup shelf, and I said that best not be mine. It was the same bag I saw earlier when I went inside the first time. Then the excuses started: "Well, we were busy, your order is getting finished up now," and a "sorry." Folks, nothing irritates me more than incompetence and excuses. Finally, my order was handed to me. I was still hearing "sorry" but no effort to actually perform guest relations. As I drove home, I called the location and asked to speak to the manager. Let the excuses begin again: busy, sometimes waiting on a product, I did not see this happen, yadda yadda. Oh, and "sorry." GUESS WHAT?! I got home to find that they duplicated my order, and not in a way to make up for their lack of speed or incompetence, but in a way that shows they have ZERO quality/quantity control. My order took twice as long because of their issue, NOT mine, and not because they were "busy" or had to wait for a product. So, jokes on you, Cafe Zupas. read more

Went through the drive-through ordered a sandwich soup combo, and the soup was more water than anything else.

Waited at the counter for 5 mins while 2 employees was talking (not about work) and a third one from the back finally came to ask if I needed anything. I hear others are having this very same issue. If you want good service go somewhere else. read more

I catered with them today (13 boxed lunches). Several boxes were marked for custom orders due to allergies and diet, all were made correctly and with care. The food tasted amazing and while I'm usually a carnivore, their grilled cheese and tomato soup combo is too delicious to pass up. With a comfortable seating area and chill environment, this is a great place to eat with the family or work colleagues. The staff are all very friendly and accommodating and I will definitely continue to order from here and cater to all my offices. read more

I've been to Café Zupas a few times and love this place have great food and desserts! I recently had a small hiccup with one of my orders, and the help/ customer service was above and beyond from Abby and Anycia sp? Really appreciate them was refreshing to have such kindness / friendliness read more

My wife and I have been to the Zuppas in Glendale/Peoria many times in the past. It's always great. Today we hit the Surprise Zupss . Food was great as usual. The service was pleasant and attentive. We like the layout of the surprise store better than the other. Overall great food and great service. read more

Service is awesome. The oups, salads, and desserts are great. Excellent variety provided.

Much better order this time around. We actually got everything we ordered and it was delicious. Third time was the charm. The cauliflower soup was very good and the strawberry salad and Mediterranean bowl were very fresh. read more

This is a rubber band that was in my soup!!!! I am absolutely furious!! I ordered this chickpea soup on DoorDash a few hours ago for dinner, and everything was fine. I've ordered from here a couple of other times and always loved it. Never had a problem and always ordered the chickpea soup. This time, I did notice a slight difference in flavor from the other times I've had this soup. It tasted a lot saltier than normal and had a slight chemical aftertaste but thought nothing of it thinking it was just my imagination or that they changed up the recipe or maybe just had a new cook who was still learning. It didn't end up eating all of it at first and kept the rest for later. After a couple hours I came back to it and took a big bite thinking it was going to be normal soup, and I realized something was very very chewy LIKE RUBBER . Also noticed the disgusting chemical flavor in my mouth and pulled it out and realized it was a rubber band. I don't know if it was in someone's hair or what but this is absolutely unacceptable. And I want a refund. If rubber bands in your soup is something you like then by all means come here. read more

Café Zupas - A rubber band in my chick Chickpea & Vegetable soup. - Salad Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

Dick bag experience!! Rude staff! The one making food din't understand how to answer questions about menu. I had soup, sandwich and a drink. I asked what came on mediteranian chicken sandwich and got a weird glare from staff. I asked how big is a bowl and if salad was an option and got a repeat to my question b4 I got an answer! I said can I do plain strawberry or dipped in pistachio butter , and they said " chocolate only. I cant have chocolate. Then no strawberry! Ok. Then they mouthed off as I was gonna pay. Yes, first time last time! $18 for average food with poor customer service. Ill eat else where. No gene pool to pull from this next generation of no experience! Half the staff looked high!! Trash can pulled through dinning area from kitchen. What no back door! WTF?? Tables were not cleaned, floor was sticky, front door looked like a child's museum of finger prints. Food was average and not worth the experience if quick casual dinning! read more
