Soups & Rolls Restaurant — Restaurant in San Antonio

I usually skip local pho joints because, honestly, the quality around here is generally disappointing. But today, after waking up from a nap with an intense craving, I decided to take a chance. I found a recommendation for a new spot on a local Facebook group and drove over.

​I ordered the steak and brisket pho with extra brisket. Even before the bowl arrived, I could tell this place was dedicated to quality. The garnish plate was immaculate—the bean sprouts and greens were incredibly fresh. Glancing at the next table, the presentation of their dishes was just as well done and everything looked vibrant.

​The pho itself was phenomenal. The broth was perfectly executed—rich and flavorful. I was so impressed that I had to ask the waitress who the chef was. She proudly told me her husband was the cook, and he hails from Southern Vietnam (which explains the distinction in flavor, as Southern-style pho is noticeably different from Northern-style). ​Long story short, I'm absolutely impressed! I can finally recommend a truly great Vietnamese pho restaurant in the San Antonio...

First time here, I purchased my order online prior to the restaurant opening, I wanted something hot and delicious for breakfast. When I first walked in, I was greeted by a beautiful little girl who made sure I felt right at home, "hi welcome," she made my day.

I ordered to go, so once I got home I took a look and was in awe! The food not only smells amazing, but looks even better! Large portions as you can see in the pictures, this bowl is 64oz and its pretty much full. Tons of veggies, broth, and meat came with my brisket and meatball pho! I also ordered the rangoons, which are also a hit! I will be coming back. Did not...

I just recently moved from the Fort Worth area where we have a large Vietnamese population in Haltom City and some of the best Viet food outside of Houston and California. Since moving, I have tried SEVEN different pho spots in San Antonio (including Pho Kim Long and other places people always recommend) with a lot of them being underwhelming, overpriced, or some straight up bad. I was ready to give up.

For months I kept passing by this place and waiting on them to reopen - they finally did and I was able to try it out yesterday. The pho was EXCELLENT, the prices are reasonable, the place is clean, and the service is friendly. I will absolutely be back. I'm very happy to have found my spot down the street from my house in the Westside where it's a sea of great Tex Mex and...
