Kim Son Vietnamese Bistro Inc Description:
Kim Son impressed early visitors with its food but not always with its service. Now that it's had time to work out the kinks, the pitfall of overwhelming eagerness is less of a problem and diners can fully concentrate on above-average renditions of Vietnamese cuisine and a few incursions into Chinese. The large, colorful dining room is punctuated here and there with flat-screen TVs (usually with the sound turned off) and fish tanks of crab and lobster in the rear, a subtle suggestion as to what one might order. Try the hotpots, like one called Pot of Pearls, chock-full of flavor from the oysters it contains. Also of note are the house's first-rate renditions of pho. On the whole, the menu is stronger on main courses than on appetizers; for a change of pace, check out quail and other delicacies under the category "Classic but unique dishes." Kudos to the salad of duck and green papaya; it's rich and refreshing at the same time.
