“Kasra Persian Grill has superb tasting food, beautiful atmosphere, top notch service, and generous portions. This is about our fourth time eating here, and we devoured the hot pita with amazingly tasty hummus. Then I decided to try something different and had chicken when my wife had ground beef with salad. We love this restaurant!“

“Hey this is by far my favorite Persian restaurant in all of Houston. The food is AMAZING. The owner is in here 80% of the time I go in and is so friendly and nice. The staff have improved so much with their timelines and customer service skills I rarely go anywhere else.“

“Best ME food in the greater Houston area. It is a compact but complete menu. Cooking techniques are indicative of Persian influence, so flavors will be slightly different from Greek or other Mediterranean foods. But... THE FOOD IS EXQUISITE! Beautiful restaurant for dining in and professional, caring waitstaff.“

“When I think of Persian, I think of Reza. Succulent and juicy lamb shank, cornucopia of tender grilled meats, pillowy flat breads, aromatic rice complemented by cranberries, and refreshing lemonade. Service is always amazing and a shout out to Kasra and team!“

“From the food to the ambience to the service.....While this place is on the expensive side:Food is fresh and delectable...Ambience is a lively, refreshing place and amazing to do brunch or spend a Sunday afternoon.....Service...our waitor was very nice and attentive.“

“Houston's iconic Caspian Cafe offers a handsome venue that transports you to an authentic cafe might find on the Caspian Sea, replete with a delightful array of Persian delicacies that are a true feast for the senses. We ordered lunch for 24 that we had delivered to our ranch in Brenham. Our culinary guide was Zack Bastankha, who proved knowledgeable, insightful and patient. Zack's recommendation's included the classic Persian appetizers served with pita: feta and herbs and radishes, alongside creamy hummus, flavorful tabouli, succulent beef Koobideh, tender chicken joojeh kebab, and savory grilled lamb chops, are all a celebration of Persian flavors. The Jeweled Rice, is a symphony of exotic ingredients (basmati rice, shelled raw natural pistachios, slivered almonds, orange, sugar, matchstick-size pieces carrots, peeled, dried barberries, dried cranberries, sultana raisins, saffron threads, finely chopped, cardamom, ground cumin, and ground turmeric is a standout dish that truly captivates with its vibrant colors and rich flavors. Each dish is meticulously presented and effortlessly enhances the dining experience, making every bite a culinary delight. The seamless drop of each eight quart aluminum container into our chafers added a touch of elegance to an already exceptional meal.“

“Wow wow wow, I haven’t seen much more options other than seafood near this location. But this restaurant is serving amazing high quality food. Me and my wife got Sulatani and got impressed. Only little downside for me mint was too much in ayran. Otherwise, all great and I love complimentary breads!!! Thanks for serving amazing food.“

“I’ve been coming here for 25 years and it doesn’t disappoint! Admittedly - it fell out of my rotation a few years back - but they don’t miss a beat. Still delicious food! I always get a kebab combo - this time beef and shrimp - with the must have dill rice (add butter - you’ll thank me!)Love that they serve bread and herbs to every table. Typically add hummus or another dip to go with. One minor thought - they fresh bread is now crispy. It was originally more fluffy and soft, which is my preference.Their iced tea is out of this world - delicious.In previous visits I’ve tried various desserts - including the Persian ice cream. Always delish!“

“They have the best tea. The iced variation was a little bit disappointing- what happened? The food is consistently top notch. I had the flounder. I generally do not like or have rice - but they have something special going on there. Delicious.“

“This is by far the best Afghan food I’ve ever had. I’ve eaten Afghan food all over the US. All of them were good. But, this was far superior. We ordered quite a few dishes, including beef, chicken, and lamb items. Everything was cooked to perfection. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!“

“We, the Rice University Iranian Society, recently organized a Persian New Year dinner for over 200 guests and chose Miri's Kitchen for catering. We were thoroughly impressed with the exceptional service and delicious food provided by Ms. Miri and her team. The quality and generous portion size of the dishes, including beef kabob, chicken kabab, ghorme sabzi, and gheime, were outstanding. One of the highlights was the presence of Ms. Miri herself, who arrived early and personally supervised every aspect of the catering and she provided staff to serve the food, which added to the smoothness of the event. We received numerous compliments from our event attendees, all of whom were thoroughly impressed. We highly recommend Miri's Kitchen for any catering needs and look forward to working with them again in the future.“

“This place is nice. I love the decor and the atmosphere is nice.The service was a bit dry. The waitress spoke very little and I felt a bit intimated to ask questions.The food is delicious. I had the a plate with rice, quails and lamb chops which is enough for two people.I would come here again.“

“Amazing food!!! I had to grab a quick bite for my lunch break, I needed something fast, healthy, affordable, locally owned business because that’s my value system I LOVE to support my community.Omg the lamb gyro was 5/5 10/10 couldn’t ask for better it was so good I had to come back and drop them a 5 star review, this is DAYS later guys.. Wonderful people very friendly.. I think I waited all of 2-3 minutes for my Togo order, the place was empty sadly!! This is my new gyro spot and I’m telling everybody about it! They should have more business. They’ve earned mine! ???“

“The Pakwan Restaurant is a great place to dine. Super delicious is the food. I just want to close my eyes and dream, while dining.The quality and taste is amazing. For one thing, the restaurant offers great consultation and suggestions, especially on family meals. Also, the welcoming atmosphere is always appreciated.“
