Back in 1978, the public had two basic choices for dining out - fast food with limited menus at low prices or higher priced, full-service restaurants. But, that changed when the first Souper Salad opened in Houston, Texas. The food was fresh and nutritious, guests served themselves as much as they liked, wait staff was there to help with drink orders and the price was low. From day one, people loved Souper Salad's simple, wholesome approach to eating out!

Our unique concept has never changed: give guests the freshness, nutrition and endless variety they crave, serve it in a quick, convenient format and make it all available at a great price. Today, with more than 150 delicious original recipes, low prices, super friendly employees and the ease and quickness of our largely serve-yourself system, guests just keep coming back for more.

Today, Souper Salad is one of the nation's largest all-you-care-to-eat soup and salad bar restaurant chains. We're a privately held company, headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, and operate 82 restaurants in 12 states. We're really serious about serving our guests fresh, high quality meals at affordable prices in a comfortable, casual environment.
At Souper Salad, unlike some restaurants, we have great, low prices for lunch and dinner. So, our guests know they can always enjoy an affordably fresh and delicious meal. And with our Kids Meals, even our youngest guests enjoy eating their fill of soup, salad and bread.

The Souper Salad recipe for operating our restaurants remains simple - start with the freshest ingredients, prepare delicious food, offer endless variety, serve it in a quick, convenient way and make all of this available at a great price. It's no wonder that our guests have been applauding our fresh way of doing business for 30 years!
