    The food was yummy and the service was great. We ordered a lb of shrimp for the boy. The shrimp was huge! I ordered the shrimp tacos, and they were tasty. My husband ordered the tilapia and said it was really good. The best thing we ordered was the fried calamari. Hands down, it was the best calamari I've ever had.

    Not satisfied. I usually come here and it's always been a great experience, but this time was completely different. While eating my food, I found a caterpillar in it. I hadn't even finished half my meal when I saw it, and I couldn't continue eating after that. It was honestly disgusting and made me worried there could be more bugs in my food.They did remove my fries and drink from the bill, but I feel like more should have been done. I would have expected the entire bag of food to be replaced or refunded, especially the portion I didn't eat. Very disappointing experience.

    always love kickin crab we got the garlic noodles, fried oysters, cajun mussels and shrimp. all the food was delicious as usual. the only complaint i have is that it's more expensive compared to other seafood boil joints. i usually go to boiling crab but the wait was too long... service here is great everyone was friendly, parking is plentiful at the lots

They have great service, super attentive and friendly. You pay up at the front after you're done. It's a simple place, not much decor. But they got all the flavors so it's fine. Plenty of parking in the area as well. You gotta try it!

We were craving some warm pho on a cold night, and Soup Shop sounded like the perfect spot. The plaza Soup Shop is located in is usually super crowded, but if you go after 9pm when most of the other restaurants and shops are closed, you'll find plenty of parking. Write your name down on the waiting list at the front podium and then wait for your name to be called. They have a few seats to wait right outside the door. Once we were seated, we were given menus. I really like that their menu has a lot of large photos of the dishes, so you know what you're getting! Once we ordered, the food came out pretty quickly despite being busy. For appetizers, we ordered the Crunchy Pork "Bao" since it sounded unique. Inside the bao is pork shoulder, mushroom, Vietnamese sausage, and quail egg. The outside has a thin, perfectly crispy layer that gives a nice little crunch when you bite into it. Really enjoyed these and would recommend! We also got the Crusted Parmesan Cauliflower. Not sure what's in the sauce, but it's sweet, tangy, and delicious! It's also topped with fried onion, cilantro, cucumber, and parmesan cheese. Also a winner! For entrees, we got the Chicken Pho and the Pho Ribeye. For the chicken Pho, you can get it with thigh or breast meat. I got it with breast meat, and they gave a good amount of meat! A little dry, but I appreciated that it was nice and lean. The flavor of the soup is really good. Pho Ribeye was also tasty! Hit the spot.

The girl at the cashier was helpful, but seemed like she might've been having an off night. Either way, I do appreciate her help. They have a ton of self serve, ready to pour flavors and smoothies, which is honestly really cool. They also offer sample cups so you can try before you commit, big win. On top of that, the toppings and add ins are self serve too, which makes the whole experience fun and customizable. The flavors were actually really good. I noticed they also serve food, so I might try that next time. But I'll definitely be back for the self-serve options alone.

I had this spot on my bookmarks for years, so I am glad to finally be able to stop by here. The process was a bit confusing when I first walked in, as there were no employees at the front counter - 2 of them were busy in the back cooking, eating, and talking and the other one was focused on making more boba and the trash, I guess. I did a walkthrough to look at everything, then I came back to the front counter and noticed the signages on the side wall about purchasing a cup first, then adding toppings and filling up your drink, then coming back to the front counter to get your drink sealed by an employee. I waited in line patiently, as the employees were all in the back doing various things, and the guy who was bringing out the boba and changing the trash finally came out. I noted that he was wearing the same gloves he did while taking out the trash and started to ring customers in front of me up and help seal finished boba cups wearing those same dirty gloves. I was disgusted, but since I drove a long way for this spot, I decided to stay, as he is only touching the outside of the cup anyway, and I will just wipe it down later. Anyway, I bought a cup and filled it with some ice, my favorite milk tea - jasmine milk tea, and boba. I do wished that they had a couple other toppings I liked though. I was ready to have my drink sealed and waited patiently for the employee to seal it. Overall, it was a good concept they have going on and it is one of those one time experiences at least for me, but they have to work on their cleanliness because there were 2 employees in the back cooking food for customers while eating themselves while cooking in front of it and the other employee wearing the same gloves doing everything, even when changing / touching the trash.

The meat on the sandwich had an enjoyable slightly smoked flavor I wasn't expecting and the mac and cheese was just okay. A bit dry and bland. Been here a few times since and noticed the food has been consistent, which is always appreciated. I have also have tried the Ciabatta French dipper. The meat is well seasoned and tasted slightly smoky. Tasted very close to the Cheesesteak minus the onions. The Chicken Bacon Rancher was pretty good. Balanced flavors. The Toasted Italiano was decent. It was lacking a bit in protein and also I just prefer the Italian cuts cold. The spicy fiesta chicken was decent. Some sauce would have gone great on this. The Smokehouse BBQ Chicken sandwich was decent. Sweets sandwiches are usually a miss for me with a few exceptions. The Bacon Turkey Bravo needed more protein and flavor. Liked the sandwiches listed in order from favorite to least favorite with the ciabatta cheese steak at the helm and Bacon Turkey Bravo last. For the soups I've also tried the French onion. Thought it was flavorful and just the right amount of sweet. Then I'd place the bacon mac and cheese right below that. The hearty fireside chili wasn't my fave, lacked flavor and was on the sweeter side rather than savory. The chicken noodle soup was my least favorite as it tasted the blandest. The customer service and quality of their ingredients have been good. The food is a bit pricey with a relatively small side of soup costing you about 8-9 dollars, though it is enjoyable enough to swing by once in a while on a cold night. Half sandwich/half soup meals always hits the spot.
