The waiter was attentive, good ambiance. Personally, I do think the food really hits. The pho is super rich in the broth, but way too much noodles imo. The banh xeo tacos were definitely yummy, but so little shrimp (6 pieces of 3 halves shrimps). Overall, good food, steep prices.

Tastes 10/10, ambience is 10/10 what got us was the portion size. It was over $20 for a kid sized meal. We brought it back to our hotel because it was already 11:45 and we didn't want to keep the staff there late, and to our surprise the portion was only enough to fill up my husband, he ate most of both bowls. The flavor was amazing though! Even if they just gave more noodles since we know proteins are inflated now.

Place was great. Service was good and the overall vibe of the place was great. Seemed new still and some dishes could use some perfecting but overall i enjoyed dinner and drinks. Got a mix of small plates and entrees. Parking can be a bit hit or miss.

Such a great place. The staff is so kind and the food is delectable. The salted egg yolk calamari is a MUST. It gets busy but it's worth the wait. We loved our server and bartender. The lychee martini is also necessary!

Yummy as always! The Banh Hoi platter was good, though I wish their mam nem dipping sauce was better (their nuoc mam dipping sauce was on point!) The morning glory stir fry was good though it leaned more on the salty side. The Xom Wings were good, but I wish they were more juicy inside rather than dried out. Overall, everything was good but something is still missing out. 8/10.

Came here on a Thursday evening for dinner and the place was very chill. I loved the interior decor and vibe, though it was a bit small so I can't imagine what it's like when it's a full house. The grilled cuttlefish appetizer was amazing! Had a great and subtle charred flavor and it was served with a lemongrass/sour sauce that was very flavorful paired with it. I really enjoyed this dish! Also got the bun hue chay (tofu noodle soup). It came with fresh veggies and chili oil which I loved. I asked for extra limes since I like my soups lime-y. The broth itself was a bit plain so I'm glad they gave the chili oil and limes. The dragon mule was a great choice too - a big slice of dragon fruit came on top of the drink. It was light, not that strong. My friend got a cocktail which was way too sweet. Service was quick and friendly! Overall would come again. They had lots of shared plates options for pescatarians which is a huge plus for me.

This place was such a pleasant surprise! My friend and I went for Seattle restaurant week, and the food was delicious, service was lovely, and the decor was on point. I had the muc chien (fried calamari), com tam (pork chop, pork skin, meatloaf, with rice and veggies), and tiramisu. First off, the portion sizes were huge; I took half of my food home. Second, that was some of the best fried calamari I have ever had. And third, the main dish was a really nice surprise. I didn't know what to expect, but the pork chop was well cooked and seasoned, the pork skin strands were really interesting, and the meatloaf was surprisingly delicious and moist. I've also since reheated them at home, and it held up pretty well. They don't take reservations, so I don't know what waiting is like during peak times, but on a Thursday at 7:30, it was easy to get a table, and it seemed like it slowed down after us anyway. I look forward to returning!

Service is good and ambiance is nice, similar to my feelings about the food. As a Vietnamese person, obviously I judge Vietnamese food harsher than others because I've tried so many variations and recipes from my mom's to the street vendors in Vietnam. I think Xom's food is flavorful and they've definitely gotten the right ingredients. Some things tasted too sweet for me, but overall everything was tasty and fresh. I wasn't blown away but I'm not dissatisfied either. Definitely pricier than Vietnamese restaurants in Little Saigon but it does the job if you're wanting a cute date night. I'd come back to try other dishes and their cocktails!

This rating is for the food. I like ambience of the restaurant with the plants. It's a cute spot for lunch. I split the seafood platter and broken rice dish with my friend. The seafood platter/tower comes with two pieces of mussels, oysters, shrimps, scallops, and grilled octopus. The oysters were amazing with the sauce that they put on top. The grilled octopus was excellent as well with great flavor and texture. The shrimps were dry and other two didn't quite stand out as much as the oysters. The grill pork was good but a bit overpriced for what it is. Service is okay. I arrived at the restaurant asking for a table of two, waiting for my friend to show up. The hostess asked how long it will take for my friend to get here as I can't hold on to a table for too long when the restaurant wasn't busy when I enter and the entire duration of dining.
