Imperial Soup in Oakland offers a delightful culinary experience. We tried the Hainan Chicken Rice Plate, Curry Beef Flank with Chicken Oil Rice, and Beef Tendon & Flank Over Egg Noodle. The Hainan Chicken Rice Plate was tender and flavorful, accompanied by fragrant rice. The Curry Beef Flank with Chicken Oil Rice impressed with its rich flavors. The Beef Tendon & Flank Over Egg Noodle featured perfectly cooked noodles and tender beef. My Chicken with Mushroom & Herbs soup was comforting and flavorful. The service was attentive, and the restaurant had a cozy ambiance. Imperial Soup is a great choice for a satisfying and tasty meal.

A restaurant where the food has a focus on health and well being? Yes… I am intrigued. I will be back for more. I ordered the special, braised flank with rice noodles. The soup was tasty. Not my favorite, but I felt amazing after I finished. It cost me $9.00 and it included a free drink ( savings!!!!) They make their food using herbs and spices designed for healing and well being. I am curious about all the other dishes. Places that focus on tradition, authenticity and wellness have a special place in my heart. This may just become my go to soup spot.

The Cantonese believe that soups provide the essence of good health. They have soups that “cool” the Qi and others that “warm” the Qi. This is perhaps the only place I know of in Oakland Chinatown that specializes in a variety of soups that provide the essentials needed to restore balance. However, that’s not all. Imperial Soup offers a delectable selection of dishes ranging from chicken/black mushroom steamed rice with lotus leaves in a bamboo basket to Hainan steamed chicken on rice. A very cozy little place, two floors. Rest rooms only at the upper floor. The service is fast, portions are big. We find ourselves often too full at the end of the meal to tryout their great selections of classic Chinese desserts.

This is a small restaurant. We ordered two soups, both were so delicious and nutritious. Then we shared a big Bowl of lamb noodle 汤面. All dishes came very quick and hot in temperature. I don’t know how they make money here, soup is $5 and lamb noodle is $10. If I live near by, I would come here for soup every day.

Came here for lunch, it looks like a little hole in the wall but there’s also upstairs seating. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about their food. We ordered the combo special that includes “healthy soup” using lots of Chinese ingredients with healing and healthy properties…kinda like my family used to make back in the day.
