Kim's Vietnamese Restaurant

DOWNTOWN. Savvy locals know to head to this special little eatery, whose casual, almost homey decor and friendly service make even strangers feel like long-lost friends. Hearty eaters will want to opt for one Kim's special seafood or noodle dishes, maybe even mussels in sake served with lemon grass and a sweet coconut sauce. A word to the wise: the lunch and dinner combos are always smart bets. If it's a vegetarian dish you crave, why not go for tofu, mushrooms and mixed vegetables served in a special broth or fried vegetarian spring rolls, rumored to be among the best in town? Reservations are suggested during peak seasons.
