Likewise, really good 2-player games are rare I think so I'm also open to suggestions!
Some friends got us a copy of Terraforming Mars' a little while ago. We've played it with 4 (with the buyers) and it was excellent, apparently it's good with 2 as well. Will report back, but I really would recommend it already.
Nice, but pricey...
It's a really good game, plus the artwork is lovely.
If you want small quick games I can recommend Dobble, Loveletter and Hanabi. Dobble is definitely child friendly, the other two are logic based so it depends how much your son is into that.
They're all playable by 2 people (inc. exploding kittens), but Hanabi is better than the others in this respect. The others become quite luck oriented when played with 2, Hanabi stays great.
