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

Delicious flavorful meat, everything was cooked to perfection. Waitress was patient, answered our questions and was attentive. Casual dining experience, not too loud, just enough parties to feel a warm sense of community but not overly packed. We didn't have to wait to be seated which was nice. I loved the garage door that opens up and all the windows. Great interior decor and cozy indoor/outdoor options in ChopHouse Row. Pricey but I would come back to try other dishes! read more

Recently came here for lunch on a weekend and it was pretty empty; we had reservations, but definitely didn't need them. My husband and I had spent our morning eating our way through the Public Market, so we knew we weren't too hungry. Ultimately, we ended up splitting the grilled scallops - very small for $22, but also very delicious - and the banh mi sandwich. The banh mi was a great portion for the price and for it to be listed under the "small plates" - plus it came with fries! We were with another couple and they both got entrees - which were giant portions! However, they said their food was delicious! We all had cocktails, the pink sangria, the on cloud, and a banana old fashioned (I forget the actual name); all were delicious and with very different flavor profiles. read more

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. read more

I didn't realize that Marmite had closed and Xom took up its bones and picked up where they left off upscaling its Vietnamese cuisine on offer. I was there for Restaurant Week on one of their last days. The servers, as nice as they were, seemed a bit confused in spite of having run it for nearly two weeks straight. My dish was supposed to come with pate, as it was highly recommended by the waittress, but I didn't get my share of pate. They made up for it by sending me home with some, but I feel like I was robbed of what could have been a great restaurant week experience. I will certainly try again next go around. read more

The plates were large portions, and we really enjoyed the salads. However, the prices just felt quite expensive whereas you can get cheaper Vietnamese food in the little Saigon area. Service is good, but wouldn't come back again. read more

Came here last night with a friend and had a great time here. They have been opened for only a week and plan on doing their soft opening for a month before the full launch. Some food items are not available for the moment. The cocktails are really good with amazing presentation. I was impressed with how flexible the bartender is to accommodate my needs. The lychee martini is A MUST! read more

Xóm is a gem. The food hits that perfect balance between traditional Vietnamese flavors and a slight modern twist that actually works. You can tell they care about the ingredients and presentation, but it still feels comforting and familiar. I had the Banh Hoi platter which was super big and came with a variety of different proteins and fresh herbs. The space itself is cozy but stylish, and the vibe is relaxed. Great spot whether you're craving something classic or want to try Vietnamese food with a bit of a fresh take. read more

This place is mostly good, with a nice cozy & intimate vibe. I came here for dinner on a not-too-busy weekend night and was seated immediately. The server was friendly and fast. I tried the bò né, pho, and calamari. One by one: - the calamari was delicious! it came with a salted egg yolk sauce that i couldn't get enough of. - the bò né was very good. The steak was tender, sauce flavorful, and pate added a lot. My only complaint was that the fries were pretty soggy. - the pho was not very good at all. The noodles were overcooked and the broth was very starchy, almost as if they'd over-cooked the noodles in the broth itself. read more

Food: We ordered the Muc Chien (calamari), which was really good with the sauce. I had the Bun Hue Chay, which was pretty good as vegetarian pho goes! It also had vegetarian ham in it, which was a nice touch. My partner ordered the Pho Tai Nam, but ended up with the Bo Ne, which he still liked. The drinks were very good - had Dear Violet and Halong Bay. We would order everything again. They do have 2 vegetarian mains and a couple veggie apps. There are also markings for dietary restrictions like gluten free, and notes of things that contain nuts and shellfish. Service: The service was good considering they just recently had their soft open. They were very kind and checked in on us regularly. The place was busy, and I think the kitchen was still figuring things out. The calamari came out after our meals, because I think they forgot it, which was fine. It was tasty and worth the wait. My partner also got something he didn't order, but he liked it and the server offered to exchange it to make it right but he was already munching so he stuck with it. Then the owner personally offered to make it right at a future time and treat him to a bowl of pho. So I really think the service was pretty good and they addressed any slip ups in communication in a satisfactory manner. Ambiance: it's in the space where marmite used to be. It's a little small with some interesting configurations of tables and bar seating, but the decor was cute, classy, and warm. They have little hooks for bags at the bar and for coats at the door. The only negative was that their sound system seemed to be on the fritz. The speakers would suddenly get loud and blast the music and then quiet down. It went from background pop jams to clubbing vibes. I saw staff trying to adjust the speaker to fix it but it didn't seem to cooperate. Otherwise, it was a lovely little spot for dinner. Overall, I think once they sort out the kinks from their soft open, this will be a great spot and I'd happily go back for more. read more

A wonderfully quaint and cozy Vietnamese lunch and dinner spot in the heart of Capitol Hill. The inner decor is an open kitchen concept with plenty of exposed bricks. The food is on par with most of the omnipresent Viet fare in the city. We did enjoy the grilled cuttlefish, which is basically in your squid/octopus family. They also serve it deep fried but we enjoyed the flavor the charred creature with an excellent tangy lime/chili sauce. The banh mi is stuffed with a protein of choice and crunch pickled veges. They overdue the may a bit and we didn't taste the promised pate. At $13 there are better, more cost-effective Viet specialty Sammie's in Seattle. The vermicelli bowl with grilled pork was a divine variety of flavors and food textures with a tart fish-sauce based dipping sauce. Full bar and friendly service. Look forward to trying their signature bowls of pho on next visit. read more

Banh mi pate is very very salty (ordered banh mi twice this year). Google online menu states banh mi is $13 and online ordering is $13. I ordered by phone hoping to save them any fees from the online service. Realized after getting home that my total with tip was $23 (tip was $3). I see a menu listing $18 from online Google images posted by other reviewers. Portion for banh mi was good. 3 stars due to inconsistent pricing and saltiness read more

Xóm is now open in Capitol Hill's Chophouse Row! They are located off of 11th Ave in the little Chophouse Row Alley directly to the right of the entrance. Xóm is a modern Vietnamese Bar and Restaurant that represents Vietnam's trendy side of dining while still keeping a true authentic taste to their food. I heard about them through their sister restaurant Ông Lắm Bistro on Instagram, so I had to check it out immediately since I already love their food! We came into their establishment as a group of 6 yesterday evening and we were seated right away. The waitress serving us was very friendly, and later the owner Cuong introduced himself and was very welcoming! Looking at the menu it was similar to their sister restaurant, but with a bigger emphasis on their drinks. My friend was really excited to order Bia Saigon (Saigon Beer) since it's pretty hard to find in Seattle, so we ordered a couple of bottles. According to the owner, the Bia Saigon was exported straight from Vietnam. So if you're looking for some real Vietnamese beer you can find it here! Me and two others in our group ordered their Bò Né which is a breakfast/brunch type of dish that includes a beef tenderloin, eggs, cut cherry tomatoes, pâté, and some fries all served in an iron skillet. They also give you a plate of toasted baguettes for you to dip into the skillet. I've actually already had this dish from their other location, and both are delicious! The beef was full of flavour and easy to cut into, and dipping the piece of baguette into the egg and pâté gave a satisfying taste and feeling. Two other people in my group ordered their Phở dishes, and they both seem to have enjoyed it! One of them said it was very similar to what they ate back when they lived in Vietnam, so that's a good sign! I had a great experience dining here and already plan to make another visit this week. As much as I love the old school Vietnamese food we have out here, I'm thankful we are finally getting more modern Vietnamese establishments that reflect current trends of Vietnam. Congratulations to Cuong and his team for their soft opening of Xóm! If you love the food from Ông Lắm Bistro, then you'll definitely love the food and drinks here! read more

Another Capitol Hill winner! So many yummy dishes. The Bo Ne would easily qualify on my list of last meals before I leave earth - tender, juicy tenderloin steak on a bed of caramelized onions, amazing pork pate, with 2 eggs, sunny side up served with soft, chewy bread to soak up all that goodness. The cuttlefish dish has a side of aioli that has a nice kick to it. The grilled scallops were absolute flavor bombs. The Com Tam was a savory affair expertly made with broken rice. Super friendly staff was patient and helpful at explaining the different offerings. Cute, modern setting made this an outstanding meal to be filled with joie de vivre! read more

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. read more

Had a wonderful dinner at Xóm during a recent trip to Seattle from Los Angeles. We had a large group of 9, but the service was prompt and the food and drinks came out quickly. I ordered the prawns, pork banh mi, and duck - everything was incredibly delicious and flavorful. Everyone in my party stuffed themselves and left happy. Very lovely restaurant with great ambiance, as well as a wonderful staff and friendly owner. Highly recommend. read more

Food was okay, I enjoy the Com Tam Trong Suon Bi Cha however that was it. Everything else was pretty mid in my opinion. The mango salad was overly salty while the vermicelli noodles needed a bit more seasoning. I ended up combining the too into one since that was the only way we could finish the salad. The service was also really slow, I understand it was pretty busy but waiting a 35 minutes for a dish sadly wasn't the vibe. However the waiters did come to check up on us so that was nice. I wish this reached my expectations as I was really excited to try this place out but sadly it didn't. read more

Keeping it short and sweet, the ambiance felt cozy and the service was welcoming. However, the food could use improvement. There was nothing impressive that would make me come here again and again. I got the Bo Ne and while it was good, it wasn't anything other worldly. Also one of my pet peeves is when the cutlery and plates don't play well. The bowl was too short and the chopsticks too long & they didn't provide a knife to cut the meat -- felt quite awkward to eat. Apart from the food, the drink list seemed quite limited and nothing quite made me feel inspired to drink. We were with 3 other people and they all felt the same feelings. I wish this business luck but they need to tweak some things in order to find longevity at this location, in my opinion. read more

Had a great experience here at Xom a few weeks after their grand opening and wanted to try some of their most popular items. Had the Pork Skewers and the Pho both of which were excellent!

So many competing restaurants nearby, was hoping Xom offer good/comfort food but unfortunately it did not meet expectations. Had the Bank Xeo taco appetizer (18$), no taste of coconut milk (or even hint of), tumeric or any kind of unique spices hallmark of banh xeo. Veggies was fresh and fish sauce was good. Com Tam entree (20$), basic and nothing memorable, again where is the spice/flavors unique to this dish. Had the Halong Bay cocktail (15$), nope! Just undrinkable, it burn and lack any flavors listed in the drink description. Maybe i'll return to try the duck plate or pho. Update: I took the leftovers home (Com Tam and Banh xeo), after reheating it in microwave for 30s, the Banh Xeo actually had decent coconut milk/tumeric flavors and the com tam pork/loaf was peppery and good. Perhaps the bad cocktail completely numb the senses from the burn. read more

I saw this place on IG so I decided to give it a try. My boyfriend ordered the combo pho and I got the bo ne. The prices are steep and you can get better tasting Vietnamese food elsewhere for cheaper. The ambiance of this place is nice but I have had better pho at cheaper places. This was my first time having bo ne and it wasn't anything special. I could probably have gotten a bigger piece of steak but presentation was nice on a sizzling plate. I'll stick to my usual pho spots. read more

Service and ambiance was amazing! I love the little alley way with tons of surprises and the waitress was super sweet. The food seemed overpriced for a viet restaurant with the portions/ingredients given. It was good, but I'd rather have gone to a reg pho place to get the same food with bigger portions, side veggies, etc. Example below: pho next to me only had bean sprouts, lime, and jalepeno but very little portion and the vermicelli I got only had lettuce as a vegetable. Seemed pretty expensive for what is given read more

I got the com tam, pork banh mi, and xom supreme. The grilled pork chop on the com tam was very flavorful. However, the accompanying rice and egg, while prepared well, were pretty standard, and the shredded pork skins, unfortunately, were also mediocre and didn't leave a lasting impression. The oxtail emerged as the star of the dish in the xom supreme, delivering a succulent and flavorful experience that left a lasting impression and the broth of the soup was well balanced. As for the pork banh mi, I found that the bread was incredibly crispy and it elevated the sandwich making it quite tasty overall. Throughout our entire time at Xom, the service was really great. Quick and efficient, the staff ensured a seamless experience. Our waitress stood out for her warm and friendly demeanor, adding a welcoming touch to the overall atmosphere. read more

The good here was very good. The passion fruit sauce on the fried chicken wings made the dish. For dinner, I had the vermicelli with pork, and it was the most flavorful vermicelli I can remember having. I ordered the mocktail One Fine Day. It was flavorful and a nice balance of sweet and sour. I don't go to Capital Hill very often, but I'll definitely be back. read more

Xom is upscale Vietnamese food with fun cocktails and a cute ambiance. Although I feel a bit conflicted about what to rate Xom. I didn't think the food was innovative, tasty, and worth the price. We got the pork stuff giant prawn appetizer as well as the cuttlefish. The cuttlefish was great. The prawn... not so much. A bit overcooked and mushy. And then we had some rice/vermicelli plates. They were tasty. You had your meat, rice, fish sauce, some veggies, and fried egg rolls. That's about it though. For the price and "upscale"-ness of it all, I would've expected either a much higher quality taste OR something innovative. Some flare, an exotic fruit, an egg shaped egg roll ya know? Altogether for about 3 people (with drinks) it was about $110ish with tip, and I didn't even get a FULL meal or drink. I don't mind paying for a bougie meal once in a while, but I did not think this place was worth it. The best tasting item was the cuttlefish. The drinks ARE fun though, I'll give em that. 3 cause xom xom xom (a subpar nom) read more

Xóm - Pork stuffed prawns and sautéed cuttlefish - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I had high hopes for this upscale Vietnamese restaurant. However I think it fell a little flat. The prices were pretty steep for the same quality I can get at any other Vietnamese restaurant. Their attempts to make it upscale didn't work. The giant stuffed prawns were a weird mushy texture and didn't have much flavor. The rest of the food was good but nothing special. The interior was super cute and presentation of the food was nice. But we were also out in the corner table which felt a tiny bit cramped. I probably would not go back since I can get the same food for a cheaper price somewhere else. read more

fun new vietnamese bar in chophouse row. it was pretty busy when we came on a friday night, we didnt have resos so we kind of got seated at a tiny table in the back. it was super cute and dark and vibey inside, and i think itd make a great spot for drinkies/small bites. they have about a dozen fun cocktails!! very playful combinations that all look yummy. i tried the lychee martini, which was sweet and tasted like lychee, very simple but did the job. i also tried their violet drink that was also sweet and beautifully presented. they were very nice and made my friend an off the menu dirty shirley, and im sure they could accomodate if you asked to adjust sweetness in the drinks. for dinner we had the pork stuff prawns, which came w four pieces of prawns, which was nice to try but maybe a bit expensive for so few. we were told all of it was edible including the shells, so we ate all of it. the shells were crispy and had a bit of char to it. it came with a side of some sort of citrus but even after adding that the flavor of the whole dish was still quite mild. the stand out dish for me was probably the glazed chicken wings with passion fruit. wow!!! it was sweet, tangy, and i think one of the more unique menu items that they have. it came with about 8 pieces of wings/drums. the wings were a little bit skinny but the taste of the wings made up for it. i think this appetizer is a must try! for entrees we shared the bun thit nuong, which was actually quite a bit of food. the pork was ok, some of the cuts were pretty fatty. it did taste good though and also had a great char to it. the nuoc mam that it came with actually had a kick to it. comes with noodles and some veggies to pair it with. there was only one egg roll, and it was just fine, nothing too special about it. also shared the bo ne, which i will probably skip next time. the pate and eggs and bread were good but the slice of beef tenderloin was well done and not very appetizing to eat. read more

We ordered the Banh Hoi platter to go- it was so delicious! We will definitely go back again!

Love the location of this place in Chophouse Row! We came on a Friday night around 8 pm and there were a couple tables open so we were quick to get seated. We ordered wings, the Bo Ne, and the pork chop plate. We wanted to try the chicken wings bc of the passionfruit sauce which gave a tangy flavor which I sadly wasn't really into. The chicken was a little bit on the dry side too so I wouldn't order this again The Bo Ne was a 4/5. The pate and egg with the bread was the best part; steak was a bit too well done but flavor was good! Would get this only if you like pate :) The rice and pork chops, I would recommend bc the meat was 5/5. I'll prob try one of the pho's next time! Service was amazing with everyone being really sweet and recommending various things on the menu. The atmosphere is really nice with cool lighting and a laid back feel, would def come back just for the vibe and some drinks. read more

We were excited to try Xom but left disappointed. After placing our order almost immediately upon arrival, we waited nearly 50 minutes with no food. When we finally asked our server if it would be ready soon -- since we were short on time -- they said it would take another 5-10 minutes. Thankfully, the food came out within 5 minutes after that, but by then, the experience had already soured. Unfortunately, the food itself was on the salty side and didn't quite make up for the long wait. The staff was polite, and they did offer us 15% off, which we appreciated. But overall the service was too slow and the food just average. Not sure we'll be back. read more

Staff were very attentive and checked in on our table throughout our meal. They were very accommodating and friendly. Decor is amazing and does well to create an experience. Drink wise, my friend and I ordered the Halong Bay and Dear Violet. Both drinks were very pretty and the alcohol amount was generous. Food wise: - Muc Chien (fried calamari with salted egg yolk aioli): perfectly battered and fried. The sauce was amazing, I appreciate that the sauce was at the bottom, it prevented from the calamari to go soggy. - Canh Ga Chang Day (fried chicken wings w/ passion fruit sauce): reminded me of Canh Ga Chien Nuoc Mam (fried chicken wings w/ fish sauce) but without the umami and slight spice. The wing sauce at Xom was more reminiscent of a sweet and sour sauce. - Bun Thit Nuong (grilled pork, vermicelli, egg roll, veggies/herbs): very tasty but not outstanding, presentation was beautiful! The nuoc mam (fish suace) that went along with this dish was sweeter than I typically like it. - Xom Supreme (prime oxtail pho): 0/10, noodles were absolutely mush. I've never ever sent back a dish AND ask for an item to be taken off my bill before this dish. Their small plates are generous in quantity. I would maybe visit here again for cocktails, small plates, and to try their Bo Ne if in the area. I hope they troubleshoot a bit more, because the staff and ambiance is lovely. read more
