dont know where to post this.
is 5-6 floz normal volume for a soup plate?
its rimmed, and this is the volume filled literally till the rim?
is it normal to fill so much?
soup plates that are bowls dont get filled so much.
its 23 cm diameter but seems so shallow.

I've never measured exactly what volume fits into my soup bowls. I usually get a couple of ladles into the bowl, and possibly another ladle or so to really fill it up to the rim.
Not all soup bowls are created equal and some are deeper than others. Are you trying to fill it up more, or are you trying to get away with less? I think people usually just fill the bowl until it's mostly full, and so in some bowls you will get less soup, and in others more. I really don't think anyone is going and getting out the measuring jugs or cups to check exactly how many oz of soup they've been given.
If you're worried about not having enough soup, you can always offer seconds.

I am asking specifically about soup bowls with a rim.
it just about fits 2 ladles.
its smaller than a corelle square soup bowl.

It doesn't matter with a rim or without a rim. It depends on the specific style/brand. Two bowls with rims could be very different.
What's the concern here?

I personally don’t like these types of bowls for soup. don’t feel like they hold enough for a decent portion. They also slosh over too easily when carried (since you have to put sooooo little in them if you want to make sure nothing spills). But I really like soup 🙂

We have something like that. I don't like them and now mostly use them for serving salads. The rims are very flat and the bowl part is very shallow. If you fill it almost to the rim, it becomes very hard to carry or pass, as it easily slops over onto the rim. And you don't get much soup which can be weird to eat because of how shallow it is.

I have Wedgwood and though different pattern the same idea. I think they’re perfect. They look beautiful on the table and we don’t find that it doesn’t hold enough. How much soup do you need in a multi course meal anyway? If someone wants more they get more.

Even if you can get seconds I think they’re awkward to eat out of because they’re so shallow.

I like practical over elegance. Gotta decide which matters more to you I guess.

My parents have these for pesach but stopped using it because it's such a bad shape.

Also the soup must cool off so much faster cuz it's so shallow and spread out. That alone would drive me nuts. I like my soup hot, not lukewarm.
