Came here for restaurant week and grumbled about the price $50 for the course meal. 4 app choices, 4 main, 3 desserts, and 3 drinks (even alcohol). I thought all the food was great super satisfied and would come back again! The place is cozy and unique. read more

XOM has a cute setup with both indoor and outdoor seating, and the outdoor area is dog friendly, which is a plus. That said, the food took a surprisingly long time to come out, especially considering there were only about three other tables in the restaurant. The banh hoi platter was tasty and came in a generous portion, which we enjoyed. Unfortunately, after the food was dropped off, our server never came back to check on us. With more attentive service and better pacing, this could have been a much stronger experience. read more

Good spot for Vietnamese food, but nothing I thought stood out in particular. We came around 6pm on a Thursday and it wasn't too busy when we arrived, but shortly after people started trickling in. The seats inside are pretty close together and small, so there isn't too much capacity overall. The decorations and ambiance are really great though! I ordered the com tam, which came with a mound of broken rice and a fried egg, as well as the pork chop, shredded pork, and pork loaf. It also came with a few cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, pickled carrots and daikon, as well as the fish sauce. Overall, the flavors were pretty good. The pork chop was nicely charred and juicy, and the pork loaf and shredded pork were also well seasoned. I did think the rice was a tad dry and less fragrant than other broken rice I've had. Service was friendly and prompt, and I did like the overall vibes of the place. I'd try other items! read more

Ambiance at this location was nice. Ended up getting the broken rice. Everything was fine but two things that could improve. The fish sauce was a bit too sweet, probably less on the sugar would make it nicer. The 2nd thing that felt off was the marination on the pork chop, seems more sweet than savory. But the pork chop was tender though. May come back to try the other dishes read more

We actually weren't even planning to get dinner but while waiting for a friend we peeked at their menu and thought wellll couldn't hurt. I was itching for a banh xeo and having it in small taco form was great. Crispy, flavorful, sauce was great, veggies plentiful, shrimp falling out the sides. Yum yum perfection. I shared with a friend who got the banh mi which was also really good and came with fries too. read more

I would describe Xóm as a trendy and modern take on Vietnamese cuisine. Their dining space exudes cozy vibes and the layout promotes communal dining. I was definitely excited to sit down and try a few items. I ordered both the Halong Bay and the Mekong Secret cocktails. The Halong Bay is a mix of orange infused tropical herb rum, gin, tequila reposado, blue curaçao, and lychee liquor. This drink was powerful and refreshing. The Mekong Secret is also rum based with an added passion fruit liquor, lemon juice, pineapple juice, and coconut cream. This cocktail packed a punch with a fresh taste. For the food, I ordered the Crab Egg Rolls appetizer and the Bún Thịt Nướng with pork. I highly recommend the egg rolls! Flavorful, crispy, and served with a dipping sauce and pickled carrots and daikon. The Bún Thịt Nướng was also delicious, however there was so much lettuce that it could have just been a salad. This was served with nước chấm sauce on the side. Service was attentive. The food was beautifully presented. The pricing is definitely on the higher end. The Bún Thịt Nướng was $20 and the egg rolls were $19. It was worth a try so I can compare with other Vietnamese restaurants that are not as upscale. I would visit again to try other items on their menu. read more

A great Vietnamese restaurant located in Capitol Hill! I got the com tam which is a rice plate that contains pork chops, shredded pork and an egg loaf. My favorite part of the dish was the shredded pork, but a little sad that there wasn't too much of it ... Same for the pickled veggies. Our server was really nice, so no complaints or anything. The interior was so pretty! Especially at night. Dark aesthetic with a bit of greenery Open concept kitchen where you can see all the magic happen! The seating is a bit close to others as a heads up. read more

Xóm is a really quaint Vietnamese restaurant/cocktail bar located in the heart of Capitol Hill. There aren't many Vietnamese restaurants in the Cap Hill area, and this restaurant is perfect for an ambient dinner with friends. The dishes are quite large and good for sharing, and they offer a wide range of drinks. We enjoyed all the dishes we ordered, particularly the mango salad. The prices can be hefty, so I'd recommend finding dishes that are easy to share. We unfortunately had to wait a while to be seated and served, because the restaurant was severely understaffed. The waitress attending to everybody was doing as best as she could though! I hope this isn't a common occurrence, given I thoroughly enjoyed the food. I think I'll definitely be back if I'm craving a nice Vietnamese dining experience. It's a great restaurant to have dinner, and maybe a couple drinks, before exploring the rest of Cap Hill! read more

Good restaurant to get Vietnamese food in Capitol Hill area. Very good service and beautiful restaurant too. They have a wide selection of unique Vietnamese dishes.

Just really really like the ambiance here. Very chic very Seattle modern! Had the banh xeo tacos which I've never seen before. It was very cool to try that out. And it was crisply good!! Not really a star down or anything. But the restrooms are kinda far to get to. You gotta go all the way to the back and take some stairs up. Other than that it's a real upscale looking Vietnamese spot. I'd come back here! read more

Xom is a great place to cool off for lunch or casual dinner in Capitol Hill. We went on a Saturday around 7pm and there was a bunch of seating available. I love that they always have the garage door style windows open so you can feel like you're sitting outside. Our server was super nice and let me sample some of their iced teas before making a selection. I went with the pomegranate jasmine iced tea, it has a bitter pomegranate flavor, which I loved. For food I had the Bun Thit Hue (I think that's the name) a cold noodle Vermicelli bowl with pork and veggies. My only remarks about this dish are that there was too much romaine lettuce, (I don't recall this dish ever coming with lettuce in other restaurants), the purple cabbage did not make sense with the flavors happening, there weren't jalapeños, and it could have used more fish sauce. I still enjoyed the freshness of the dish, however, the preparation I am used to just always knocks it out of the park for me. Also, for a dish that usually runs about $14, (it is $20 here) there just wasn't as much flavor. I also didn't see Hoisin sauce anywhere, and forgot to ask for some. That being said, I will come back and try the Tofu Bahn Mi and fries, my friend ordered them it was delicious! The fries are a nice thick cut and the bahn mi was adorned with loads of sauces and veggies. Yum. read more

Tried out Xom with a friend! Two of us had: IPA $7 one fine day mocktail $11 so diep nuong mo hanh (grilled scallops) $22, quite good bo ne (steak and eggs) $22, ok com tam (broken rice ) $20 Food overall was good. Most impressed with the scallops. The restaurant was tucked away in the corridor area. Nice ambiance. When we went, it was relatively empty. Street parking during peak hours was surprisingly expensive...didn't realize it went up that high haha. read more

A cute niche spot on Chophouse Row! The cocktails & dishes were tasty but a bit pricy. I guess it is upscale viet food so better quality, presentation, and taste! Dishes are kind of shareable but for certain items it's not the largest portion... I've been here twice, once grand opening and then regular business time, I haven't had to wait longer than 5 minutes during a non-busy time. The restaurant is super beautiful, just like the plating of the dishes! Would come back once in a while for a nice dinner! :) read more

Xom is a new Viet option located in Cap Hill and I got to try their $50 restaurant week dinner on a Friday with a couple friends. Overall, the dishes were delicious across the board. Prices are a little high, but expected for the area. Service was understaffed and we ended up remaining at the restaurant for 3+ hours just because of how long it took between courses and flagging down the waiter for the check. Xom has a couple kinks to work out, but generally a great choice for a night out. Crab Egg Rolls (3.75/5): Nice and crispy on the outside, flavor was pretty mild inside. I wish that the crab came through a bit more, but still solid. Xom Wings (4.5/5): Super crunchy outside, fantastic sticky sweet and savory sauce, and tender chicken. My personal favorite of the night. Garlic Butter Seafood (4/5): Amazing bang for your buck - they really fill the bowl with scallops and mussels. I was craving a bit more garlic, but definitely a hit at the table. Bo Ne (3.5/5): In spite of their look, the actual steak itself was well cooked and super tender. Unfortunately, the fries placed on top ended up steamed and soggy. The eggs were also overcooked and I was really missing the richness of the runny egg yolk. Xom Supreme (3.75/5): Loved the broth, light while still having great beef flavor. Noodles were fresh and very soft, which is just not my favorite - I prefer the chewy ones. Banh Flan (4.25/5): Great texture on the flan, super creamy and soft. Bruleed bananas added a nice bit of crunch and extra dimension. Drink wise, the One Fine Day mocktail was far too sweet, but the Mandarin Lemongrass Peach Iced Tea was super fresh and had great tea flavor still coming through. read more

I really enjoyed this spot. I chose to sit outside and had a great time enjoying the quiet walkway/alleyway that Xōm is connected to. The pork broken rice was flavorful, with tender pork and fish sauce that balanced it out perfectly. The morning glory was my favorite. It was so addictive despite being a simple veggie dish. The food took a while but it was so good that I didn't mind the wait. read more

A great Vietnamese restaurant in capital hill! I can't believe I haven't tried this place sooner. They serve great Vietnamese food and it's authentic. I had their Com Tam (broken rice, pork chop, shredded pork, veggies) and it was delicious! The pork was seasoned and made well. Very juicy and tasty as well. The veggies and broken rice were fresh, and the fish sauce was made well. However, there wasn't much shredded pork added which I was disappointed about. The ambiance was amazing! Great lighting and decoration and it was organized very well. I loved the plant theme they had throughout the restaurant. There's plenty of seating and it includes outdoor seating as well. The service was good. Server was nice and helpful. The food didn't take long to make as well. Regarding their menu prices, some of them are fairly priced, while others are pretty pricey. Overall, I very much enjoyed my experience here and I can't wait to come back! read more

Went to this place as my friend found it after looking for Vietnamese cuisine. When we got there I was already a fan of the atmosphere. It looked modern but inviting at the same time. It didn't take long to be seated and the waiting staff was great at checking in on us. I ordered their Vermicelli dish and it was good! There were some comments amongst our table about the lesser amount of meat with each of the dishes but otherwise was enjoyable. Definitely worth checking out read more

Xóm is well hidden in an alley but opens up to an exuberant scene, deserving of more attention. The bò né had well delivered components: the pork pate was very flavorful, the beef tenderloin was well seasoned and surprisingly tender for the tough cut that it is, and the totality of the dish complimented everything well. My only complaint was the fries; they're pretty bland and the texture is weird and they're very resembling of bad frozen fries tossed in an oven or air fryer. read more

One of my favorite Viet spots in the central Seattle area, and easily the top for Capitol Hill! The service is great, although sometimes slow bringing your food out, but they're always happy to give you some extra veg and sauce. If you have dietary restrictions, they'll try to work with you to change things up (ex: if you can't have pork, they'll swap it out for an egg). They also have an extensive drink menu, including a Vietnamese beer, if that's your thing read more

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. read more

Went here during Seattle Restaurant Week and got their premium 3-course meal set. I think out of everything the vibes of this place is amazing. It's in Chophouse Row, my new favorite part of Seattle just to walk around and hang out. The decor inside is totally my style, I love anything with greenery and wooden accents. The portions for the food were hefty, the oxtail pho that I got was massive. My only complaint was that the mean was a little tougher, did not fall off the bone like some other places I went to. The standout was definitely the Garlic Butter Seafoods. Whatever they put in that sauce was immaculate and I actually dipped our Banh Xeo Tacos in it too because I couldn't get enough of it. The Bo Ne also had very tender steak and my boyfriend enjoyed the pate (which he doesn't usually care for). We got really full even by the appetizers and so we had to take stuff to go, but the food reheated pretty nicely! As for desserts, the cheesecake we got wasn't anything to write home about but the FLAN. Oh my gosh if we weren't so full then I would have asked for more. It was sweet but still not so sweet that it was teethrotting. Compliments to the chef. And finally, the peach tea was a bit on the sweeter side so just be warned. Couldn't really finish the whole thing because we were so full. And also our server was so sweet! We were tucked away in the corner of the store (which was nice and secluded) but she was still very attentive of us. Highly recommend especially for Seattle Restaurant Week. A lot of bang for the buck. read more

Beautiful space, tasty food, and friendly staff! We went to Xom with a group of 6 without reservation and were seated promptly. We enjoyed all the food and drink items we ordered, however this spot is on the pricier side. The plates and bowls are large, but full of greens and don't have very much of the protein you order. The Bun Thit Nuong was tasty, but didn't have a lot of chicken. The Banh Xeo Tacos were my favourite -- a little steep price-wise but very good. Chophouse row (the buildings this restaurant is located in) is super neat and aesthetic. The ambiance in the restaurant was fun and chill. Overall very positive experience. read more

We went here for Seattle restaurant week and we had a reservation for 6:30 and we were seated immediately when we got there. As we ordered, our waitress notified us that many of the items on the Seattle restaurant week menu were already out. This was pretty disappointing to us but we made do. After we ordered, the waitress came back and said what I had ordered was also out. We also asked if we could upgrade the drinks included on the Seattle restaurant week menu and just pay the difference and were told that was not allowed. My friend got the spring rolls and upon getting them realized it had peanuts which she is allergic too, she told the waitress immediately and the waitress brought her a new dipping sauce. We asked her if there were peanuts in the rolls themselves and she said no but we asked her to check the kitchen as looking at the rolls, it looked like it had peanuts. She went to the kitchen and confirmed that there were peanuts. In the end my friend and I switched appetizers as there weren't any other items to order on the menu. Overall all the food was mid, my friends were really disappointed that the crab rolls and wings were out as the rest of the items weren't very appetizing to us. The pork belly was fine but we felt it was too salty to be on its own without rice.the spring rolls were fine but those are so easy to make and aren't any better than the ones I can make at home. We got the pho and the banh mi and both were fine, the banh mi came with fries which I was surprised about but sure why not. The cheesecake was fine and just tasted like generic grocery store cheesecake, we all thought the tiramisu was terrible though --- too sweet and artificial and neither of my friends could finish even half. Both of the mocktails were just fine. In the end the food was just fine and nothing impressed me, all the food we wanted to order wasn't even available. We did express the disappointment so in the end our waitress did comp our drinks and was very nice and expressed her apologies but I'm still disappointed in the restaurant. I felt like the service and everything was mid at every step of the way: things were out and it was surprising since we were there pretty early, we weren't allowed to upgrade our drinks, the waitress wasn't knowledgeable about ingredients in their foods that are common allergies, and I guess she had offered allowing us to pick something else or even on the main menu or something as everything else was crossed off --- my friend had only 1 appetizer choice that had no peanuts, they didn't even offer to remake it without peanuts. It's really disappointing because this place is so cute and a great location but it's just a total miss for me and I would recommend others to miss it as well read more

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! read more

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! read more

Came here for their restaurant week and was very pleasantly surprised. Looking at the menu I was like damn why is everything so expensive, but the pho I genuinely think is worth the price it is really good, the broth has a very rich complex flavor from the oxtail and while I love simple msg pho soup, this is certainly a unique experience. Their wings are really good, the bo ne is ok, and I really liked the garlic seafood thing, they have good bread. Very pleasantly surprised with this place. read more

Ambience. A Service. A Food. A Price. A Found in Capitol Hill in the alley restaurants areas. Cool modern and low light ambience. Very comfy and welcoming. Staff was friendly and accommodating seating quickly. One staff want familiar with items on menu so had another interpret menu and accommodate changing items for my taste. Order the pho with beef shank, beef , pork ham and pork trotter. Wanted to switch out the ham for the tendon. Easily accommodate! My new experience are the round noodles made of rice and potato starch. Nice bounce and al dente bites eating the noodles. Accompanied the lovely hearty beef broth. Meat in shank and trotted I wish had been boiled braised longer to fall off bone. Lots of meat to attempt to pick off the bones was my only issue. Should have asked for knife. Overall, delicious meal and new experience with that Vietnamese rice round noodle! I'm a FaN!!! read more

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. read more

I enjoyed the food at Xom, it's kind of like gentrified Vietnamese food, but it's tasty. It's on the pricier side, but it's in Capitol Hill and the interior is really trendy looking, so that's to be expected. I would recommend the grilled calamari and the pork chop. Not the best Vietnamese food I've had, but it's a good spot for lunch and I left satisfied. Service could be a little bit better as it took a while for someone to take our order. read more

Xom has become my favorite local spot for banh mi! The menu items are traditional but the flavors are elevated as quality of ingredients are simply the highest. The pho broth is so layered and deep in richness. I love dipping my banh mi in it, but also ordering the pho on its own is an absolute win. The service is quick, and you're treated with care. It's obvious that when you're here, you're family. Great location too - in the heart of the hill, with a modern cool vibe! read more

Cap Hill parking is rough but if you can brave it or use other means of transportation then it's worth it to make the trip to eat here! The interior is relatively fancy with table and bar seating, and you can see the kitchen nearby as well. For me and my friend, we got seated quickly to eat at this place I've heard of advertised frequently on IG. The one dish that caught my eye was the bo ne, which comes with beef, two sunny side-up eggs, pork pate and fries on a small iron skillet, with a baguette on the side. Eat this with the Chin-su hot sauce they provide, and this was one of the best and most balanced dishes I've had! Friend got the com tam which had grilled pork chops, pork skin, pork meat loaf, eggs and veggies, and he loved his dish too! Food did take quite a long time to come out; however this did not detract from my experience here, and service was fast and quick. Superb food in a cozy location! Pricing is higher than other Vietnamese restaurants I've been to but they make up for it in taste and quality. read more

Trying to recover from last week disastrous bowl of pho, I wanted to go to another Vietnamese restaurant. Xom is like a little bit upgraded Vietnamese restaurant (similar to Ba Bar). We ordered 4 5 dishes * Noble scallop with butter and garlic: the flavor was great and the amount of Scallops is generous. I just wish the broth were a little bit denser * Chicken wings with passionfruit sauce: wings are crispy and moist but I couldn't taste any passionfruit * Broken rice: the pork chop was really flavorful. Fish sauce was ok and maybe it's intentional but it lacks the fresh chili flavor * Sizzling beef: beef was tender but it needed a little but more salt and the pate was good. * Xom supreme: basically the special Pho with oxtail, eye round. The broth had really good aroma and I love the fact that they used the fresh noodle. But it seriously needs more fish sauce because broth was quite bland read more

We came in around 9pm on a Saturday. The interiors was very cute and clean. They were closing down one side of their restaurant so we were sat to share a big table with another party. The drinks were delicious! My friends who got the vegetarian pho (bun hue chay) loved her dish. I ordered the xom supreme but it didn't come as many oxtails and bone marrow as I would hoped. The soup was also too much so the flavor was a bit diluted. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Parking was street parking which was normal for cap hill. read more
