The Most Delectable Soup in El Paso

Los Tres Gallegos

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (25) • $

"Slow day at lunch and it was just me so very quick service. I ordered and 5 minutes later my caldo de res appeared. The caldo was average, could be fresher , but perfectly edible. I actually liked their refried beans which was surprising as I'm very picky on beans . I liked that they give you both red and green salsas but the salsas were average in flavor.Overall not a bad place and I needed somewhere to eat while I got my car worked on across the street but I wouldn't be back except out of convenience."

Lapa Lapa Seafood & Drinks

★★★★☆ 4 (11)

"The food was good and the ingredients tasted fresh. I am not a Spanish speaker so it was a little hard to navigate the menu since I am not familiar with authentic Mexican food. The waitress helped and provided good service. If you are expecting fajitas and tacos this isn't the restaurant for you. This is definitely a notch up on your average Mexican restaurant."

Limon Con Chile

★★★★★ 4.7 (42)

"The food was absolutely delicious! Everything from the presentation of each plate to the taste of the food. The service was fast and good! The restaurant is a little bit small on the inside but definitely worth it! Definitely recommend trying this place!"

Dragon Buffet

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (81) • $$

"We had no idea we could find good Chinese food in West Texas! We stop in Fort Stockton several times a year and had not tried Dragon Buffet. They do a brisk business and are constantly replenishing the dishes. I tried a few bites of several dishes and they were all really good! We tried ginger chicken. chicken w/broccoli, beef w/broccoli, sweet & sout chicken. There was a spicy chicken that my husband liked. There was chicken on a stick as well as chicken drums. There was a seafood dish that was quite tasty. They have white rice & fried rice. There was hot & sour soup and egg flower soup. A separate desert bar and an ice cream bar! If you're ever in Fort Stockton definitely give it a try!"

Fu Lai China Buffet

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (35)

"Such little selection. For the price, I was expecting more. A salad bar at minimum but they don't even have that. What they did have was decent, but way overpriced for such a small selection of items. Won't be back."

Chachi's Mexican Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4 (146) • $

"I decided to take my sister out for an early dinner. We went in and were greeted with a bubbly hostess who sat us and asked what we wanted to drink and we both got some sweet tea. The place is quaint with murals painted on the walls. My sister ordered the two shrimp taco plate and I ordered the chicken flauta plate. After having some chips and hot salsa, we ate and enjoyed our meal. They were both quite tasty. My sister was overwhelmed with her meal. She couldn't stop talking about it and said it was the most authentic she's had in such a long time and gave it a 10 out of 10. I definitely recommend anyone that comes around Las Cruces NM. give this place a go. We'll definitely be back. I need to try these awesome margaritas I've heard so much about as well. Miguel was our server and he was polite and professional. We also met Raymond and he was a nice gentleman from the family owned restaurant."

Katsura Sushi Bar

★★★☆☆ 2.6 (65) • $$

"Wonderful! Udon like home cooked. Sushi tasty and well presented. Server first day. Needs more training but hey he's working! Where are the servers? Will come back. Authentic japanese cuisine in a beautiful setting."

Los Corajudos del Gordo

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (10)

"Love this spot, delicious fresh made mexican food. Burritos are a good size, and delicious, I reccomend the arriero and the burrito de colorado with frijoles."

Kaedama

★★★★☆ 3.9 (364) • $$

"Came across Kaedama on IG and just HAD to try it cause of the name. I read reviews prior to coming so I knew it was a smaller joint, and the reviews definitely are correct. The restaurant is a cute, small little spot close to downtown El Paso. Parking is free if you can find a spot along the street in front of the restaurant. If not then there is street parking around the corner but you will have to pay, which was the case for us.Kaedama is a snug little restaurant, inside they have a decent amount of table. Unfortunately we came right when they opened so they were packed for lunch. Only option for seating was in their outdoor patio. Not too bad since the weather was a bit cooler than normal for El Paso.Our waiter was quick to get our drink and food order. He also came around a couple times to check on us so no complaints there.I ordered the pork buns for appetizer and the hot babe for ramen. My husband tried the thicc boi ramen, which I'm assuming is one of their popular items since I heard at least 2 other tables ordering it as well.The pork buns were good! They season the pork very well, the sauce is very soy sauce heavy and you can taste the sodium right off the bat. As for the ramen, I'd definitely try their tonkotsu next time. I should have read the menu better, then I would have realize the broth is a soy sauce broth. I usually prefer a more creamy broth. But that's on me for not reading better. Overall I'd say the hot babe is good though. I got level two spice and it was perfect! Not too spicy but not too mild either.I'd give this place a solid 4 stars. It is a bit cramped both inside and out. The pork buns and ramen definitely had a strong soy sauce punch to both. I love that the meat in both the buns and ramen were seasoned heavily. Gave a lot of flavor. Would definitely recommend Kaedama if you're looking for a ramen spot in El Paso!"

Moo Goo Chinese Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (5)

"Had the Thursday special and the Moo Goo Lo-Mein. We took the rest of the lo-mein home and there was enough for dinner for the 2 of us the next day. It was delicious. Will definitely be ordering it again very soon. The waitress was very attentive. Restaurant was clean."

Verde Salad Co.

★★★★☆ 3.5 (11)

"Had a salad there every day for 63 days. It helped me loose 12lbs. The staff is great and very helpful. The place is clean and well organized. Salads are fresh and the smoothie is made perfectly."

Noodle House

★★★★☆ 4.2 (354) • $$

"I am in love with this place. You can tell everything is handmade. It is wonderful. The price is not bad either. The quantity and the quality of food is massive here. This is my second time visiting and it was absolutely wonderful. Ramen has a perfect broth and the noodles are made fresh right in front of you. The sauces are amazing. The service is the only thing I would say is iffy. But I will forever come here it's one of my favorites I love both ramens. The beef dumplings are better than pork IMO. Cucumbers are a must always. The bao is amazing. Green onion pancake was great and so were the spring rolls. Skip the beef roll. Always ask for the curry sauce."

Custom House Kitchen

★★★★★ 5 (1)

"Our new favorite restaurant in Deming! Housed in a historic home that predates the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, the Customs House has been beautifully renovated and is filled with vintage china, glassware and other relics from its colorful past. Owned by the town of Deming and operated by the Luna County Historical Society, it serves mostly sandwiches and salads, We both had the brisket sliders with rainbow cole slaw. The food was excellent, and our server, Mia, was a delight! We hope to return again and again!"

Verde Salad

"I've been to this location twice. The staff was quite rude when I went the first time. Also, my order wasn't ready when I went to pick it up. I ordered it online and requested a certain time for pickup. I had to wait an additional 20 minutes or so. That visit was when they first opened their westside location a few months ago. I believe it was during their first week of opening. That transaction would for sure be less than four stars. Fast forward to a few months later...I decided to try this Verde Salad location again. I didn't feel like going in so I ordered it for delivery through Uber Eats. A friend gave me a gift card for Uber Eats so I wanted to take advantage of it. I purchased two buffalo chicken bowls, tortilla soup and a cucumber lemonade with splenda. Their bowls are huge! There's enough for 2 or 3 servings. I enjoyed it. I asked them not to include onions and they didn't. I kind of don't like that they charge you $3.50 extra for the chicken/protein. If it's called a buffalo chicken bowl, shouldn't it be included? I'm not sure if that's only if you order on Uber Eats? They also charge extra for dressing, etc. Moving on...They have some really good and flavorful tortilla soup here. It's not that spicy but it's far from bland. It tastes really good with the avocado and sour cream that's included on the side. It's hard to say if I enjoyed the soup or salad more. I would totally get this soup again on a cold day or night...or whenever the mood strikes. Their cucumber lemonade is always tasty. It has the perfect amount of sweetness.I prefer the eastside location on Lee Trevino over this location. The food has been decent both times on the westside however...The staff has always been nicer at the Lee Trevino location. For some reason, the food also tastes fresher over there as well. The food isn't terrible at the west side location...it just tastes better at their Lee Trevino location. I'm not sure why. I'll for sure order from their eastside location again. I'm not sure about the westside at this time. I'll get back to you on that one."

Verde Salad

"I came to lunch with a friend. She ordered a salad and I got the chicken Avocado wrap. I really like the concept and the freshness of the ingredients. And I guess it's difficult for the "leaf" area to stay tidy during a lunch rush, but I wish it was just a little cleaner in the sense of ingredients being spilled everywhere. They also didn't work very efficiently. Since my friend and I came in together, one person took our orders. And it's an assembly line. Instead of him taking her order and the next person taking mine, etc. He took hers, went down the assembly line, so now I'm waiting while other people who were in line after me get their food made and pay before I can. And not only that, now my friend gets her food and is sitting by herself eating (because she needs to get back to work soon) and I'm waiting for this gentleman to restart the assembly line around everyone else trying to make other orders. And to top things off, he moved SO SLOW!The food was pretty good and big serving sizes. I don't think the flavor profile was that remarkable, and I really did not like that the ends of my wrap were open. It made it pretty messy and difficult to handle without all the insides falling out. It's great that El Paso has this place as a healthier option, but I feel like it could be executed better."

The Grilled Cheese Shop

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (8)

"The shop itself is cute and clean and pleasant with 4 four-tops and metal chairs and lofi music playing. The young man who is the only cashier and server was super friendly. We had a Cuban and a Reuben with chips and drinks, and the sandwiches took a reasonable amount of time to arrive and were super tasty, especially on the artisanal sourdough from Proofed. The only reason this place doesn't get 5 stars is the cost of the sandwiches. We got our sandwiches with chips and a drink and total cost was $40 including tip. That's high for Las Cruces. I'll go back though."

"Delicious!If you don't like any of their pre-made ideas, may I suggest the random-guy-on-Yelp order (mine)!3 bases: Spring greens, cabbage, kale6 toppings: Cherry tomatoes, roasted red peppers, jicama, buffalo cauliflower, cucumbers, and goat cheese1 crunchy topping: WalnutsDressing: Balsamic vinaigretteProtein: Salmon (extra cost)I'd come in with sensitive travel tummy, so I handpicked my ingredients. The buffalo cauliflower was a dumb choice for acid indigestion! But the rest was fantastic--for both my tummy and my taste buds."

Linda Michoacana

★★★★☆ 3.6 (9)

"We LOVED this place ! First of all, I liked that I could order entirely in Spanish..Maybe an illusion, but it gave us the feeling of authenticity ? And the food was just great. I had the Plato Mexicano, which seems like a typical offering in El Paso, and consists of one enchilada, one taco, one chile relleno, and rice & beans. My wife had the flauta plate, and she was equally pleased. It is very very easy to overlook Linda Michoacana becuase it is a small cafe within a strip mall, but honestly, it's worth going out of your way to try them. We loved it and we'll definitely be back !"

Pho Tre Bien Noodle Bar

★★★☆☆ 3 (37) • $$

"I've been here a few times and always enjoy the food. One time I made a take out order and when I got home, a meal was missing. One of the servers drove to my house and dropped it out. So I thought this was different but what you would expect from a restaurant. Too many places tell you to come back if they messed up.The food was always good so you can't miss. Definitely worth a try."

"Please support this business. We need more healthy, fast food spots on the Eastside. Every ingredient was fresh and oh my goodness the cucumber lemonade was on point. This is a Chipotle style restaurant but for salads and soups. I love all of the options and sauces that are available. I was told that a juice bar is in the works too. Yes please"
