Our Story
At Son Son Asian Inspired Eats, our story begins with family and food. As children of Asian descent, we didn’t grow up speaking our ancestral language or visiting our family’s homeland, but we connected to our heritage through the flavors and dishes our parents loved.
Our Asian-inspired restaurant menu is a tribute to this fusion of cultures, blending our Korean roots with the American traditions we grew up with.
The journey of Son Son started with our parents' love story. Our dad, a U.S. Army captain stationed in Korea during the 1960s, met and fell in love with a local Korean woman who became our mom. After moving to the U.S., she embraced her new life while keeping her Korean traditions alive through food.
Growing up in California, our family gatherings were filled with incredible Korean dishes, from marinated grilled meats to homemade kimchi, always paired with the warmth of community and culture.
What started as a food truck has now grown into a full-service restaurant in Pleasant View, but our mission remains the same: to bring people together through bold, flavorful dishes inspired by our mixed heritage.
