Editorial Review for Kim Son Restaurant – by Robin Barr Sussman
In Short
Palatial, neo-Chinese-style restaurant and banquet hall with a dramatic goldfish pond and spacious interiors decorated with collectible Vietnamese art. An economically priced lunch menu offers healthful choices, wok specialties and Mama La's rice platters. Menu highlights include crisp-fried Vietnamese egg rolls wrapped in lettuce leaves; spring rolls; peppered crabs and vermicelli dishes. Bo nuong xa, or grilled Vietnamese fajitas, are the perfect entree choice, served with a bundle of just-picked mint, purple basil, lettuces, carrots, cucumbers, pineapple and sprouts.

I have been hearing great things about Kim Son for years so I figured I'd try it. We started with the Vietnamese egg rolls, which weren't my thing. As mainly a vegetarian, I could not catch onto the pork inside. We got the General Tso Chicken, which is what we get pretty much everywhere; impeccable. Great crispy outside, very good sauce flavor. The fried rice was the same as any other non-Hibachi restaurant. I really enjoyed the white chocolate shell passion fruit dessert, it was amazing. The prices were also great, great parking too!
Pros: Great food, prices, service, parking, nice staff.
Cons: Vietnamese egg rolls

I haven't been here since last year, wanted to see if their food and services are improving. We end up going to Kim Son in Bellaire and left with a big disappointment. The buffet was horrible, food was cold, left over from previous days, less items on the buffet, the raw meet for Lau (hotpot soup) are stink to rottenn. This place is filthy and no wonder not many people eat here. Worst of all, the waiters are GREEDY, they charged extra money on my credit card for more TIPS and they end up getting 33% of tips...ridiculious! I would not recommend anyone go here.
Pros: big place
Cons: food, services, dishonest.
