Soup Up

I enjoyed some of the best soup of my life from here- the D.A.M. Good Chicken Soup. It's not your regular chicken soup, but it's everything you didn't know you needed. I ordered a medium and instantly regretted not getting a large, so much so I went back the same week to get it again. Any time I have a craving for a delicious, hearty soup it's for this one. The jerk shrimp rolls also cannot be missed, I love their in-house sweet and sour sauce! The service is also wonderful.

I came here for lunch and was very impressed with the homemade soups and sandwiches options available. The cashier/server gave me a sample of all her soups and it was hard to decide which one to go for. They were all good, but I decided on the Curry Chicken Vegetable Soup. It was the perfect fix on this cold afternoon. The soup was rich and full of flavor throughout. The curry was mild, not spicy and fragrant to taste. The vegetables in the soup were cut rustic and in large chunks which made this dish very hearty. There were loads of chicken cuts within the soup that were so tender and seasoned well. I also order a Jerk Chicken Spring Roll which was not bad. I will say it was a bit on the dry side but still edible and tasted good. In all, a great neighborhood find with healthy food choices. The soups rotate often; weekly and by the season. The customer service was outstanding and the female that assisted me (sorry...I forgot her name) was outstanding. She was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back to try some of their other soup options and menu items. P.S. I heard the jerk shrimp spring rolls and beef bone broth are awesome! Apparently this must be true, because it was sold out the day I came here.

I have been here a few times and every time the soups are AMAZING! I have even tried 2 of the vegan soups...and I'm not even vegan But I LOVED them. The last one I had was the Green Machine (pictured). It was so good and layered with flavor and even filling. I also enjoyed the breakfast in bed, one which has turkey and other breakfast food flavors in it. The Bone Broth soup is also great. They also have nice looking desserts I plan to try one day. Homemade cakes, breads, and other unique desserts The owner (who is super friendly and her family too) gave me a free sample of her Guava Ice Cream...it was Excelente! They have spring rolls, jerk chicken and brunch on Sundays too. I HIGHLY recommend going here ASAP!

We had a dreary day on a visit to DC and felt like soup would hit the spot. It sure did! We tried the grilled cheese w hot honey and three soups: Sage Chicken, Chicken Chowder, and Cashew Chicken Chickpea. My favorite was the Cashew Chicken w Chickpea but the overall favorite of our group was the Sage Chicken. Delish! We love parked on the street and it was easy parking. There is space to eat inside but probably it more than 5-8 people would fit. Great spot, and can't go wrong with one of these!

This wonderful hidden gem satisfied every craving I was having on a nice day. I almost went to Panera for my soup fix and I'm so glad that I didn't. Upon entering your greeted by a warm welcome and smile from I believe the owner who made the soups herself Akita (sorry if I misspelt ) the soup I opted to get was the lentil, it had such warm, fragrant and nice flavors. The jerk chicken wrap was just perfect it had beautiful jerk seasonings, fresh spinach and peppers just overall a perfect pairing for my soup. After inhaling it all I felt a sense of satisfaction instead of sluggish I felt like I was leaving from a family members house. And wish I could've took leftovers lol this is definitely my new spot, menu changes weekly so you can never expect the same thing until you try the whole menu. Will be back very soon !!

The food is so healthy and delicious and the service is amazing also the ambiance is amazing giving you Caribbean Vibes.

This is my go to place for soup. My bf and I travel here at least twice a week. The soup here is amazing and it changes from day to day. Akita also makes the visit very warm and welcoming with her sweet spirit and kindness. This spot is amazing and I recommend if you're looking for some good homemade soup!

Great food and atmosphere. I had the Good Farmer Omelet and my Lady had the Salmon and Grits

This is a place to be experienced, not just read about on Google or Yelp, hoping that you go there one day. Pictures don't do it justice. Donna knocks it out of the park with her homemade soups, spring rolls (I couldn't pick a favorite, they were all THAT good), and desserts. To top it off, she is kind and you can tell she puts a lot of love into her craft and enjoys sharing her gift with others, which makes it even better. I was there for my birthday and she treated me like a queen. I felt like by the time I left I had made a new friend and can't wait to go back the next time I visit D.C. I would be here every week if I lived in the area.Prepare to go with a big appetite, because you will want to try EVERYTHING.
