Süp

The Best Restaurants and Bars in Reno, Nevada | Eater Vegas

"Don’t be confused about Süp. The restaurant is pronounced “soup,” the specialty of the house. The idea was hatched by a couple who used to prepare soup for friends at parties and decided to share their recipes with the rest of Reno, too. Everything is made from scratch — including the base stocks — with a menu that rotates daily. Clam chowder is a favorite on Fridays. A hearty chili is a hit on Saturdays. Typically, you have six choices at a time, including at least one vegan option. The restaurant is a cozy, single-story bungalow that used to be a Virginia Street dental office, but now draws regulars (and their dogs) to enjoy the fresh air and food on an outdoor deck. Beyond the signature soups, the menu also includes a robust lineup of sandwiches made with locally baked bread and salads drenched in house-made dressings." - Rob Kachelriess

While casual in name, Süp has quietly elevated the lunch and dinner experience, earning praise from respected local outlets like This Is Reno and Nevada Magazine for its creative soups, salads, and entrees that reflect fine dining sensibilities. Owners Christian and Kasey Christensen focus on scratch-made dishes using local produce, artisan breads, and thoughtfully sourced meats. The bright, bustling dining room and rotating menu ensure that even regulars find something new and delightful, making Süp a unique entry point into the city’s culinary creativity.
