I was planning to come here several times and ended up here today. So far this place is the best among all that I have visited as a lover of Vietnamese soups. There was such a place on Irving, but after 35 years of business, it closed. And so I found the same quiet, unobtrusive place with good food. Look at this thick, flavorful soup - it's very good! I recommend.

Read online reviews and decided to give this place a try. Wholesome Vietnamese comfort food. Tried the house special pho and it was great. Large portion, TONs of meat (which is a big bonus) and tasty broth. Definitely will come back to try out other dishes that all look delicious. The server was attentive and just have a very homy vibe 😀. If you are in this neighborhood, you should give this place a try. 🍜👍🏼💯🤩☺️

Not many pho places around here so I was really happy to find this spot. Their serving sizes are hefty and food doesn't take a long time to come out. The imperial rolls were sooo good and crispy and flavorful. The pho was pretty standard. 4* review because there were a lot of flies flying around bothering us during our meal :(. I'd come back though!

Wow! This place just has the best vermicelli. Fish sauce is somehow better. Grilled pork is addictive.

This is some of the best Vietnamese I’ve had in the city, and in my opinion the best bun rieu I’ve ever had. Great balance of flavor, not too fishy or intense. It’s the perfect, cozy neighborhood spot - I go once a week and love it so much <3

Sweet little family owned Vietnamese place in the heart of the outer Richmond. Great Pho and other dishes. Not a date night spot but perfect for any weekday.

Their chicken curry noodle soup is the best soup in North America in my opinion. Get that and a pot of tea and you’ll be soooo happy. I love this place and the people are super nice. I come here often.

Amazing. The food is delicious and the waitstaff is always incredibly nice. There’s always people but the food comes out real fast. Really authentic and home-cooked vibe.

Updated review 2/4/2022: There was about a 10 minute wait for a table tonight at 6:30pm. My crispy seafood noodles $14 came out in about 10 minutes as well. Their version of Mi Xao Don Hai San (crispy seafood noodles) came with fish balls, fish cake, shrimps and squid with various vegetables. It came with a lot of gravy if you are into that. 1/2 the noodles were already soaked and were no longer crispy by the time it reached my table. Regardless, it was still delicious as always. Great job everyone at Kim Son. Keep rocking those authentic Vietnamese dishes. Original review: Indoor dining 4/28/2021. Tonight I had their seven item rice special $15. I loved how they included a little of everything. The rice was kind of hard and old. The little piece of five spice chicken was the star of the bunch. Although, the shrimp thing wrapped around the sugarcane was tasty as well. Service was excellent as I was the only customer. Good job Kim Son.
