Kim's Pho Kitchen + Bar

Popped in just for dessert and tea. Specifically I was in the mood for mango sticky rice which was delicious. The mango was perfectly ripe and the sticky rice was perfection. Service was nice also. Enjoy!

After seeing this place on instagram, I was so excited to come out and try this place. However, our experience was ruined because the service was TERRIBLE. You would think being of the same ethnicity, you would be treated with a little respect and familiarity, but that was simply not the case. It's a little disappointing and shameful especially to see everyone else in the restaurant being American/Caucasian and being catered to like they walk on water. When we first walked in, the lady (assuming she is the manager or owner) made eye contact with us and completely ignored us. After a little while, she finally acknowledged us and said "two?" No "hello," no "welcome in," nothing... As we were following her to our seat she said, "we need to clean it off." So we went back to the front door and waited. After they were done cleaning, no one told us we could sit, so we just went and sat down ourselves. They did not bring us a menu, so we ended up grabbing one off the table next to us. The food was okay, but it probably would've tasted better if we didn't feel so annoyed and uncomfortable. No one checked on us during our entire meal. Every person/family that came in after us were greeted as soon as they walked through the doors. Can you guess what they were? Also, on top of everything else, there was a foul smell (almost like sewage) from where we were sitting. I would never come back to this place, save your time and money.

Parking: it is located in the shopping center next to the Bowl America. Seating: I went on a weekday for lunch and there was a ton of seatingFood: the food was okay. They charge you extra for the chili sauce (other pho places are free)Bathroom: it was cleanPrice: it was quite expensive for pho. The chili sauce price is terrible. Other pho places have it for free, but when you ask for it here, they will not tell you it's an extra charge and they will just add it to your bill secretly. -- I was not happy about thisService: Not very good because of the secret extra charge for chili sauce. Next time, just be upfront about it.

Tipping is out of control. 20% was automatically added to our bill and we did not have 6 persons. Food is good but menu pricing is on the high end. With outrageous tipping expectation, I'm not coming back.

Firstly, this review is long overdue!!I had the pleasure of dining at this establishment with two friends . We started with the roll combo appetizer made up of three different kinds of appetizer rolls from a rice paper fresh roll with shrimp to a crunchy roll. What's it out to me was how fresh these items were from the kitchen. Prepared well and extremely flavorful with quality ingredients. We also opted for some fresh squeezed juice options. This is very unique! I ordered a lemonade and my girlfriend ordered a fresh squeezed green juice and they were both absolutely incredible and refreshing to accompany our meal.We opted for filet mignon pho . And let me tell you... It was a luxury I never knew I needed or was missing. The steak was so tender. The broth was very flavorful as if it had been cooked for hours, and the noodles were tender. It was a bowl that was worth its price, and it is very difficult to beat. My friend ordered a different spicy soup, called Bo ho hue (I am sure I am misspelling this) but while it was a lesser known local Vietnamese favorite, when I sampled the broth, it was also incredibly flavorful with a deep beef and spice base that was so satisfying.I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, she is a very down to earth and lovely woman! It is clear that she puts her love and passion into her menu and into her products, it was also very clear to me that the produce that is purchased for these items is top-notch .If you are looking for an elevated approach to your next Vietnamese cuisine, absolutely look no further .Thank you so much to the staff and the owner and I am looking forward to dining again .Plenty of parking and seating, both indoor and outdoor! Plenty of fresh plants, and the mixLocation is very well-maintained! Great addition to Fairfax! Check them out on Instagram and the plenty reels and reviews :)

My friend and I were feeling pho this past rainy Wednesday evening so we stopped by for dinner. The interior is well-decorated and not your typical hole-in-a-wall. Our server got our orders quickly and made sure we had enough water throughout.FILET MIGNON PHO - 23The pho broth was rich and savory. I enjoyed sipping on it and loved the depth of the flavor. The filet mignon was very tender. The noodles had a good texture and soaked up the broth well. While it's definitely one of the better phos in the DMV, I can't justify paying 23.00 for a bowl of pho when I can get a bowl elsewhere for 5.00-10.00 cheaper. Overall, it was great to try!We enjoyed our experience here but not sure if the pricing is worth it.

No idea why there's so many negative reviews because this place is incredible! Loved the interior with all the cozy greenery because it really feels like you're dining in someone's home. Service was also incredible with everyone going above and beyond to make sure that our dining experience was a 10/10! As for the food everything we ordered was AMAZING! The beef short rib pho is a must try. I've never had meat just slide off the bone so easily and have every bite be so tender. I also really liked the grilled pork bahn mi, there was so much flavor and it was light and flavorful!

I feel ambivalent. It was a really cool hip interior which is different than one might think for a Vietnamese or pho restaurant. If you don't think of it as a typical pho restaurant i think it helps because it was pretty pricey for our family. We both had the short rib pho which was good but also $$ pricey. It included a very flavorful short rib but also some sliced beef. We indulged in a side of fatty brisket and it was really goodThe fried egg rolls were really good with pork. They also had fried tofu appetizer which our kids like. Service was fine- didn't get checked on but they were very polite and we had to go to counter/bar for an item. No big deal.They had a really nice looking bar.I recommend for a nicer/fancier Vietnamese restaurant which sometimes is desired. Great for small groups, friends, dates, family.

Came here after seeing an Instagram post highlighting their filet mignon pho. This restaurant offers a diversified menu option for guests. I ordered the filet mignon pho and shaky beef also with filet mignon. As far as the food, I thought everything was mediocre. The broth wasn't too salty but not too hot. It was a little too lukewarm for me. The shaky beef came in a sizzling dish but served with sliced romaine and pickled veggies that did not go well with the dish. I wish the veggies were served cold and not combined. The point of eating a filet mignon steak is not to overcook it but it's served in a sizzling grill which then overcooks the meat. There is a nice ambiance inside with a darker theme. The service was great with all the staff being very friendly. Ample parking outside and clean bathroom. There is a bar that you can sit at as well as a good amount of alcohol options.

It's an eclectic vibe and the food was good. It's just a little pricier than I'd like lol cuz I'm broke but I guess that's Fairfax for you too. The service was fine and overall it was an enjoyable lunch! I got the lunch combo and was content.
