All-you-can-eat Vietnamese & Chinese buffet with dim sum
"Dim sum lovers, rejoice—the AYCE buffet Kim Son will be open on the last day of 2023. Everything at the Chinatown buffet, including pan-fried noodles made to order, fluffy bao buns, turnip cakes, and fresh pressed sugarcane juice, will be available as long as you can hang. But be sure to come before 3pm (when the dim sum station closes) if you plan on shoveling har gow in the final hours of this year. Price: Varies" - gianni greene
"The Chinatown joint Kim Son has our favorite type of dim sum: unlimited. While the banquet hall isn’t decorated to the tee, it leaves more time to focus on the scores of food to get through. Every day of the week during lunch service, the middle of the massive buffet hall is devoted to steaming tins of dim sum. Swing by before 3pm from crisped turnip cake, delicate har gow, and sizzling shui mai. Get pan-fried noodles made to order, serve yourself decadent pieces of eel rolls, and get fresh pressed sugar cane juice on an unlimited tap. Strategize the rounds of food you’ll go through for brunch, or swing by with a crew and tackle as much of the buffet as humanly possible. " - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"If you’re in the mood for Christmas Day dim sum, you’re in luck. The AYCE buffet Kim Son will be open on December 25th. Everything at the Chinatown buffet, including sushi, fluffy bao buns, turnip cakes, and fresh pressed sugarcane juice, will be available to have as long as you can hang. But be sure to hit up the buffet before 3pm (when dim sum is no longer offered) if you plan on digging into some steaming tins of har gow. Price: Varies" - Gianni Greene

"Known for its iconic all-you-can-eat buffet, Kim Son is one of the city’s essential Vietnamese restaurants and should be on every Houstonian’s dining bucket list. Find an array of dim sum, grilled meats, fried foods, noodle bowls, jelly drinks, teas, desserts, and more. Come hungry — going back for seconds (and thirds) is encouraged." - Minh Truong, Mai Pham
