    Tomato Basil Bisque & Adams Apple
    Ryli C.

    I dream about this place. I come to Charlottesville once a year for work and this is always on my list of places to visit. I religiously order the pick two, with the Adam's Apple wrap and tomato basil soup. Bursting with flavor and just so hearty. The staff is always so friendly too. Just a cool hole in the wall. I'll recommend this place to anyone I know!

    Lamb Curry Soup

    I've been to this location of Revolutionary Soup a few times and it's always amazing! On this trip, I got curried lamb soup and their kickin' chicken sandwich. The soup tasted great, but the sandwich was AMAZING! They always have a LARGE selection of extremely fresh, in-house-made soups and it can be overwhelming, but they offer samples to help you decide. The food is always fresh... the staff is friendly and this is one of my FAVs in C'ville!

    Wow! If you love soup even a fraction of how much I love soup, you will LOVE this local soup joint! Their menu changes everyday and they make all of their delicious and unique soups from scratch! They have a little something to offer anyone from the beefy, chili-type, meat lover, to a light, vegan, veggie-lover! I already knew I wanted to try something I never had before but if you happen to be into more "traditional" flavor soups and styles they have you covered as well! Upon entering the tall, shabby-chic, storefront door, we walked down into a set of small steps which brought us down to the restaurants and eating areas! The walls were decorated with lost of nostalgic records, posters, art, as well as other interesting pieces of furniture. Just my style! I love all the downtown historic buildings and treat most of them as a little museum during my short time there! We proceeded to the ordering counter where I decided to order a choose two with the 90's Club and a side of the Creamy Edamame soup! My husband chose to also order the choose two but he opted for the Mozzarella and Pesto wrap with the Corn Chowder. The drinks are offered at the front by either choosing from the bottled drink section near the counter or the fountain beverages. I opted for just a coup for water this day as well as my husband. After ordering our food, we were given a number to wait and we found seating. The food was prepared quite quickly, maybe 4-5 minutes and came out hot and delicious! My creamy edamame soup had a very rich edamame, spinach flavor which I personally loved but I could see some thinking it may be salty. My 90's Club (pictured) was the highlight of my whole day! It was huge, the chicken was tender, avaocado was fresh, the sauces were perfect (enough to barely make it a little soggy... MY FAVORITE), and just all together felt deliciously guilty to eat! My sandwich was bigger than my husbands! As for his meal he really enjoyed it and anytime corn chowder is offered he get extremely excited! It had a really nice flavor and texture in my opinion. His mozzarella and pesto wrap was what seemed like the perfect light lunch snack to me. Wrapped nicely, fresh ingredients, vegetarian. I could. Probably eat at-least two of those! Overall I plan on going for the rest of my stay in Virginia and I'm excited to try more of the soup flavors and sandwich options! They even have bone broths, cheese steaks, salads, burgers, grain bowls, and quesadillas! Can't wait to go back! Give them a try!

    Really chill restaurant with friendly service and unique menu options. They seem to be influenced by Asian flavors (curry and miso soups), but also have regular American salads, sandwiches and even burgers. Their prices are fair for what you get. The food here is an in-between of a fine-dining restaurant and campus cafeteria. All ingredients except the burger beef patty was super fresh- the salad and soups are really good! Perfect place to get a quick but healthy meal.

    I'm pretty much a regular here. I love that there are new specials popping up. A soup I can't stop thinking about was their Mardi Gras special - alligator bisque. I wasn't crazy about the texture of the gator, but the soup was really flavorful. Their loaded potato is always the bombdiggity comfort soup. Their Hungarian mushroom soup is so yummy and flavorful. They also have sandwiches, wraps, salads, quesadillas there too.

    This place is souper... This was my first time in and I was not disappointed. I had the rueben with the clam and corn chowder and my wife had the ham and Brie and ham wrap and tomato bisque. All were great, especially my rueben. The best part about it though, was all the local artwork. No soup for you!

    Sandwiches/wraps are small. Food was bland. Expensive for what you get. Won't be back.

    Great Charlottesville lunch standard. I'm always happy to grab the peanut Tofu soup and a gluten free wrap here.

    This place has moved. No longer a tiny hut with a table or two outside, they are now on the main…read morearcade. The interior space is still fairly modest but has some seating. As is often the case on this arcade, the restaurant also has a dedicated set of outdoor seats at the middle of the brick walkway. You'd think all of this would be an upgrade, but no. First, I ordered in advance online to spare myself a wait, not knowing that it was an actual sit-down restaurant. However, upon arriving at the space, there was no one to take an order if I'd wanted to place one, and only rarely did anyone emerge from the back with food. I just took a seat and waited. By the time someone acknowledges my presence after some fifteen or twenty minutes, my food was apparently already ready and just sitting there. I didn't leave a tip as my impression of this place was that they weren't really providing any service. There's nothing wrong with a counter service model rather than full table service, but one way or another they seem not to have figured out what they were doing. Other potential diners also seemed confused. Don't get me wrong, the good was great. My ginger lemongrass noodle soup delivered an explosion of flavors. Would order again. I just hope they improve the customer service experience, because this is a great opportunity for the average local to try some vegetarian Vietnamese food.

    Stopped by here for lunch with my girlfriend, and had some fresh rolls (tightly wrapped, the peanut…read moresauce was great!) and an OG banh mi each. The banh mi was soooo good! Especially for $11. The bread was the perfect thickness and toasted well, overall super yummy and filling. We ate outside and it was great, waitress was super nice, just amazing overall. Also this was our first time checking out the new location but we've always gotten vegan pho from here, it's so good! My girlfriend jokes that it's magical because eating it when she's sick always seems to make her feel instantly better.
