Souplantation

I got amazing service here for starters. The manager lady was super friendly, informative be ause it was my first time, and she was bussing our table throughout the experience which was awesome. The place was clean, always refilling the food and soups, so I never had to wait on anything. They had good fresh coffee, and the soups were fantastic. This is a must if you like soup, and senior citizens get a nice discount. Bring cash for a tip, I was unable to give one on card.

Always a great place to eat! The staff has ALWAYS been nice, cheerful, and very helpful. If you need help or even if you look like you need help carrying your tray to your table, they will carry it for you! They will even bring out fresh baked chocolate chip cookies 🍪 to every table right out of the oven! Yum! I would have gave 5 ⭐ but they put out butter packets instead of the normal fresh honey whipped and regular whipped butter

Despite being in a large North County Mall the week before Christmas, there was ample parking for lunch. Staff was friendly. It had the feel of being one of the newer additions to the successful chain. The ambiance is cleaner and brighter. Especially appreciated the history and food related quotes on the walls. The buffet was well stocked and quite fresh. Great eats!

Here's the thing. Food and service here is amazing. They recently also redid their appearance from the outside, and looks like they cleaned up the inside as well. But the thing that needs to be fixed is the men's restrooms. Neither stall locks, and the urinal was covered and closed. I was going to the restroom and had 2 people walk in on me... Awkward for a family restaurant let me say. But other then that, great restaurant, great food, and great customer service. Once fixed, I'll raise my review to a 5 star.

I thought the food was pretty good. My wife said she was not a huge fan. This is my first time going to one of these. I always thought that they only serve soups. So I was surprised to find that they are a buffet. I thought the layout in there is super confusing. I think they should have signs, or someone guiding you at the door or something. I love the idea that the vast majority of the food is vegetarian friendly, and they even have several vegan options. I wish they had a little more variety. Overall I might want to go again. Im not sure my wife is convinced though and she likes vegetarian options.
