    Crawfish w.Spicy Sauce Noodle
    Michelle G.

    Super bummed to have to leave this review! I've come to this location multiple times with large groups of people. Usually, everything is a hit! When visiting 3/19, I had my first experience with something I didn't like. And when asked about it, nothing was done lol. Ordered the crawfish dish with some noodles. It was flavorful with a decent amount of crawfish. I added some crab for $3..probably wouldn't do that again due to the amount of crab. Took the dish from $16.99 to $19.99 & it was delicious. 4/5 stars Now for the Brussels sprouts. They were some of the worst I've ever had. I've ordered them multiple times before from here and they were great. Roasted perfectly with a glaze on them. For some odd reason, I was plated something that tasted straight from the garden. Lacked flavor even with the sprinkle of salt & pepper on them. Seriously, it's like the chef completely forgot half the steps for the dish. Even worse: it cost me $8 for Brussels sprouts tossed into some oil and a bit of salt and pepper. No one ever checked back in to see how we were doing, but as I was checking out I was asked how everything was. I explained how the Brussels sprouts weren't good at all. Even explained into detail why. Two people ordered brussel sprouts at our table and only (maybe) a handful were eaten. The response was "we're really sorry" before moving on to the next person. Still would recommend for some of their other items but definitely time to take the Brussels off the menu if they're serving plain Brussels from the garden. I'll update this next visit & hopefully have a better review to leave.

    Under new management. Extremely poor service. No steak knife for the ribeye, no appitizer even though I was the only one there the food server never brought it to me. Bad service all around. High prices. Poor parking, 3 spots.

    Nice little cafe. The food is good and reasonably priced. Service is always friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Some Indoor seating and also some out door seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Small parking lot with limited spaces but we have never had a problem finding a space.

    Left upon entering

    On the corner of a residential building, there are not too many parking spaces and the side of the restaurant looks more like the main entrance. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is spacious inside seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu is printed on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper, just want to let you know what to expect, no fountain drinks, I order a strawberry lemonade (very nice and fresh). They have a nice selection of taps and a few wines. I came for before the lunch crowd, I ordered the udon noodle with chicken. Veggies were very good and the udon was done perfectly, the chicken was probably canned, but the broth flavorful. In a location with many Asian restaurants fighting for customers, Soul Du Jour seems to be holding its own. I think coming back for the hot and sour or DanDan noodles maybe my next play here.

    Taro milk tea with rainbow jelly

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Soup Du Jour is a cute place with good food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service is great! We were told to sit anywhere and were given utensils, ice water, and menus immediately. We ordered the spiced street chicken plate, sweet and sour fish filet, taro milk tea, and some kind of peach tea. I think the spiced street chicken was a little too salty but it was still good. The sweet and sour fish was great. I would recommend staying away from their milk teas, as the drinks we had were way too sweet. Overall, the experience was great. I would come back for a quick bite. Maybe get something else to drink, though. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also, their TV's cannot show sports. We asked and they tried their hardest but it didn't work out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Chicken congee with extra chicken
    Tina S.

    One of the few places that have congee in san diego! It even comes with a you tiao(Chinese donut) This place has a lot of traditional taiwanese meals and the taste is very home and delicious. I came a little late, about 20mijs before closing and they still accommodated us. I was pretty surprised with how well the flavors and food were. The spare ribs meat was so flavorful and tender it fell of the bones. I would say the wings are salty and a nice kind of saltiness(get some rice and its great!) The soup of the day was packed with a lot of radish and very homie. The staff was super friendly and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the decor had some traditional tawainese bowls and stuff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seems like a lot of people come to hang and chat over food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It is located in a residential apartment area for parking, I didnt have too much issue find parking and they have a designated pickup area.

    Jeanie P.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute casual place I been meaning to try by my place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Today was the day! I got the honey glazed ribs, salt and pepper chicken, wontons in chili sauce and Thai tea to drink. I noticed they did a lot of pick up orders due to the restaurant being attached to a residential complex and office buildings across the street. So they seem slow inside the restaurant but busy in the kitchen. Once I got my food, oh my god. Ribs falling off the bone and delicious seasoning. The salt and pepper chicken is so tasty and finger licking good. The wontons were definitely a hit and loved the chili sauce. I am definitely coming back to try other menu items! Totally recommend this place!!

    Spiced Street Chicken
    Joyce L.

    Comfort Asian food. Delicious! Enjoyed the spiced street chicken and the wonton in spicy sauce. Yum! I pre-ordered online so I could grab-and-go, since parking is pretty minimal. They are located downstairs a residential apartment building, with mostly residential parking.

    Noodle w.Minced Pork & Soybean Paste very good,This bowl of noodles blew me away--it was incredibly delicious and satisfying.
    Quan L.

    This bowl of noodles amazed me; it was incredibly delicious and satisfying. It came with three different sauces, and each one was delicious on its own. But when they blended together, it was simply incredible! I regret not discovering it sooner. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was very clean and the service was excellent.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Anny L.

    We have been here twice, and it definitely won't be our last!We love their Hainanese Chicken Rice, it 's absolutely excellent. The chicken is super tender and moist, and the rice is perfectly cooked.It's a must-have! Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings are really good too!

    10/10 Hot and Sour soup.
    Peter T.

    Norovirus hit my house hard in 2025. Kids had it, I got it etc. While my illness was short my first recovery meal was chicken noodle soup from a can. Ran right through me. Waited a day and a half and my dinner choice after my stomach felt better was house made soup. We live in San Diego. The Asian food that is not on Convoy is borderlined unacceptable and inedible. I yelped the crap out of nearby restaurants and found Soup Du Jour. Soup Du Jour serves the best hot and spicy soup I've had outside of the Bay Area. Balance in heat, sweet, and sour, perfectly chopped veggies and perfect veggies to soup density. It really is perfect. Prices are so inexpensive too. How is this place not all over the radar? It's the best.

    Corn Egg Soup
    Tania M.

    Great service and quality of food. Plenty of parking and we were seated immediately. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Available to sit outside or inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Spare ribs were to die for!

    Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken
    Jennifer W.

    I came here with a friend for dinner on a Thursday, and the food was amazing! We ordered almost everything they recommended: Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken, Hot and Sour Soup, Honey Glazed Spare Ribs. They gave a huge portion and all their food was super authentic! Highly recommend the popcorn chicken, as it tasted just like the ones in Taiwan. The meat on the ribs were super tender and it literally fell off the bone. It was not overly sweet or salty as well. Everything was hearty and filling. Our server was so passionate about their dishes and spoke very highly of them for a while. Throughout our meal, they came to check on what we thought of the food. They were so nice! Honestly if there's any small local restaurants you should support, it would be this one:)

    They only have a few selections on their menu. They specialize in the beef rib bone Cambodian…read morenoodle soup and they have huge spring rolls. The meat on the bones was so tender, it fell right off of the bone. Their broth is so delicious. Don't forget to taste that before you put in that bomb ass house chili oil. And to all the Cambodians from a Cambodian, it tastes better than most of your momas house, j/k, but I'm not, lol. The chili oil sauce is spicy, but that's how I like it. And oh, that sugar cane drink completed the whole meal. It was good and not too sweet, just the way I like it. The owners were great. They were so sweet and welcoming. Don't forget to order some of their Chili oil house sauce for the house. I would definitely come back again if I am in the San Diego area. I highly recommend this place. Disclaimer: No one got hurt making the opening the can video, j/k, lol. https://fb.watch/HUlvHgClrw/?mibextid=wwXIfr https://fb.watch/HUmb-tAb9h/?mibextid=wwXIfr https://fb.watch/HUmfFqBVpF/?mibextid=wwXIfr https://fb.watch/HUmih3PsDJ/?mibextid=wwXIfr

    One of the best pho I've had at a restaurant. The broth was flavorful, the ingredients were fresh,…read moreand everything tasted great. I also ordered the cococane (coconut and sugarcane) drink, and it was delicious. My wife loved her meal too, which always makes the experience even better. Happy wife, happy life! Our food came out quickly, and the staff checked on us throughout the meal without being overbearing. The balance was perfect. Modern, clean, and comfortable. A great place to relax and enjoy a good meal. We'll be back, San Diego. And we'll be ordering that pho again.
