What is that soup they always serve before your meal at a Japanese steakhouse?

Like Sakura, it has a mushroom or 2 in it. I love it but I figure out what it is.What is that soup they always serve before your meal at a Japanese steakhouse?
Miso soup... you can buy miso paste at any Japanese store and make your own at home. it costs about 10.00 for a container of it. I make my own and add fresh veggies and tofu and seaweed onions etc. it tastes great.

mizo. or meso. or something like that.
miso soup, which is made of fermented soy beans.
Yeah, it's Miso. Isn't it fermented barley or something? I spent a year in Japan, but that was a long time ago. Watch out for some of the powdered miso soups that some health-food shops sell - some of them taste unbelievably bad!.
Miso?
It is miso soup. You can make it at home by buying some miso paste at a store. I usually contains small pieces of tofu and green onions as well.
meso soup... thanks for the easy 2 points... sucker!
If it is brown/beige color and cloudy when you mix it, it is probably miso soup. Miso is made of soybeans. I have added a link with a photo of it.

or if it is clear like a consomme then it is "Osuimono"
It's either Miso soup, which is fermented soybean and seaweed, or sometimes if the restaurant's kinda Americanized like Benihanas, they give you onion soup.
