I love soup so much and it is very clear that the owner of Soul Soup does too! What a great concept…read moreto create flavorful soups for the public to enjoy! Honestly, the 2 soups I tried the other night are still on my mind and I am trying to figure out how to have them again! How can I re-create them? How can I purchase a gallon of them? I cannot wait for the next pop up! When we went to The Vandy the other night for some cocktails, we knew that Soul Soup would be on the scene serving up 2 different soups for us to try (The High Life and Thai Me Up). The menu was posted on Angie's Insta page a few days in advance of the pop up (see photo of the menu) and I just knew we had to try them both! When we arrived and placed our cocktail orders, we also asked for a bowl of each of the soups to try and when they were brought out the table, they were piping hot and smelled so good! I was happy to know that rather than adding in the bacon to the High Life, they could serve it on the side so that my dining partner could enjoy the bacon while I just wanted to enjoy the soup with the pretzel bites no bacon! Two bowls of soup was a perfect amount for the 2 of us to share and when we were finished, Angie came out of the kitchen to meet some of the customers - it was so nice to meet Angie and she is seriously so friendly! I will keep my eyes peeled to her Insta to see when and where she will be next and you should too! It's soup season and if you want some of the best soup in STL, this is the place to find!

What a cozy place! Went here for dinner on a Friday night with friends and it was great! We had…read morereservations at 645 and we were seated right away. It was pretty busy inside and on the patio, so definitely recommend reservations. The staff was very friendly and helped us pick out good options. We had the fresh cheese appetizer to start and it was sooo good and followed it with the spinach and pepperoni pizzas. Both were good but the spinach was my favorite!!! We were celebrating my friend's birthday so they gave him a free cookie! So kind of them and such a good cookie!! Lots of big chocolate chunks. We also ordered a slice of almond polenta cake and it was fantastic. Overall, a great little spot with good service and food, so I'll have to come back to try their lunch menu!

My niece and I agreed that these soup dumplings are the best we've had since tasting them in NYC!…read more The soup dumplings are fantastic, the cucumber salad was crisp and perfectly seasoned. The menu is short, but all you really need to know is they have the best soup dumplings in St Louis. Chicken, pork or beef. We tried pork & chicken and loved them both. Ordering is done at a kiosk and then they bring your food to your table. We loved it and can't wait to go back.

Hands-down, one of my favorite soup dumplings in St. Louis. I've been going here for years…read more Steamed dumplings in any of your flavor combination you like. A small cup of broth to complement the dumplings. While the ambience of this place is simple, I do love the fact that they have how to eat a soup dumpling on the wall. This place can get busy, but I've never been afraid to have others sit with me if they need a spot to eat. This practice is very common and other countries anyhow. The service is wonderful. They now have a system where you can order your food that will be brought to your table. The older woman who brings your food is so sweet.

Located in the Delmar Loop, there are a lot of good restaurants but I highly encourage you to check this spot out. While I dined in, it seems perfect for takeout too. The 'Three Cup Chicken' was a big time winner with crispy chicken thighs, cooked perfectly and very flavorful. We also tried the chili oil dumplings, and some sort of magical green tea drink. Service was good, vibes are good, and really it's a great spot. I feel like you could probably point anywhere on the menu and find something that sounds delicious, including their boba and other tea drinks. Go check this spot out!

My friend proclaimed this the best thing they've had in St. Louis. - Sesame nudo: cold, refreshing, saucy and the perfect balance of savory and sweet. Small entrée-sized and only $5! What's more, the food came literally 10 seconds after we sat down. What a great, laid-back fast casual dining experience. Good thing there's street parking close by on Delmar because we will be back over and over again!!

Got this to go but it was a gorgeous day so we sat on the patio. The portions for small for what we…read morepaid for. Pho is typically a much larger portion than what you see in the picture. Staff was friendly, the pho was otherwise delicious and didn't need extra other flavorings. I when here a few months prior to this and I remember it being a walk up and order type deal. The portions were much bigger than when I order take out. I'm not entirely sure if I'd get take out again only because of what I'm getting for the cost. Solid meal otherwise.

You also get a complimentary drink or appetizer based on how much you spend. The food was delicious and I would come back to try some of their other dishes. Three Cup Chicken with rice $14 - This dish is one of their popular dishes and is all chicken covered in a tasty sauce. It's not my kind of dish because I prefer a variety vs all meat. Braise Pork Belly with rice $16 - The pork belly is cooked to perfection and melts in your mouth. It is served on a bed of baby bok choy.

We both like the pho here. It has great flavor. The portion is enough for us both to be full. There are a few other noodle options, hopefully there will be bun Bo hue and bun rieu in the future. The owners are both friendly. We definitely will go back here again.

We visited Phoenix Cafe for lunch today. The owner welcomed us with a warm smile. The restaurant…read morewas quite small but cozy and adorable. They have a good menu with great variety from Pho, other noodles dishes and rice dishes. I ordered Pho Dac Biet, and my partner got the Com Ga Xoi Mo ( crispy chicken with fried rice). When the owner brought out the Pho bowl, it smelled pretty good. Pho broth was really flavorful, brisket was tender 8/10. I hadn't eaten Com Ga Xoi Mo at Viet restaurant for a long time. I gotta say they really nailed both the flavor and texture of the chicken 8/10. Both of the owners were very sweet to us. They also gave us sweet potatoes shrimp cake to try. We'll definitely gonna come back to support when I am lazy to make viet food. Highly recommended.

But after having the Mississippi Nights Club while out with my family (they're from here, I'm from the south), it's astonishing just how compelled I was to install the app and leave a review because that club + soup was UNANIMOUSLY amongst our party of 3, the best sub I have ever been blessed enough to try in my life!!!

Service was quick and our waiter was nice and knowledgeable. Very friendly. I go a coffee and my "friend" got a mimosa. We got the buttermilk biscuits to share and I got the breakfast sandwich.

Everything was amazing and I would love to come back and try some new things like the delicious looking baked goods.

I don't think I will ever stop talking about this dinner. I always knew Russell's was good, but…read morethis was next level. When I saw their post about the "cold weather comforts," I knew I had to go. We each did the pre fixe dinner- this included a salad, entree and dessert. Each. The chicken pot pie soup was not included, but was worth it. This soup--one of the best things I have ever eaten. I was speechless eating it. I had to text multiple people mid soup to tell them about it. The chicken was flavorful, and huge pieces. The soup itself was so delicious. It felt like a warm hug. I ordered the cottage pie. So delicious and hearty. The braised short rib was so tender. The potatoes were perfectly whipped. I cannot wait for the leftovers. My friend ordered the lasagna. The lamb was incredible. So hearty, and didn't feel heavy like some lasagnas can be. The serving size was huge. We will also be eating this tomorrow! Now the apple crisp. We were full by course two, but we had to dig in. It was fresh out of the oven. The vanilla bean whipped cream was so fresh and balanced out the crisp. The apples were perfectly jammy and the cinnamon was so intense but perfect. This made me feel like I was sitting in my grandma's dining room eating dessert after Sunday dinner. If you see any of these items appear on their menu, run-- and I will see you there!
