“My daughter made a mobile order and she ordered to the wrong location. Even though they had prepared the food at the other location , Cis helped us out and made the food at Bellaire with no extra charge. Great customer service, highly recommend!Vegetarian options: My vegetarian daughter eats here a lot so it must be good!“
“I had the traditional breakfast and a mimosa. The food was delicious and fresh. The bacon was really good. Cute atmosphere with inside and covered outside options. The staff was friendly and helpful. The prices were reasonable and had a good variety of menu items. Definitely will come back!Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu and it's kid friendly atmosphere.“
“Great food and good service. Nice ambiance as there are two big patios and tables are spread out so your not sitting to close to others. They do sell hookah but the smoke wasn't overwhelming like some other establishments and plus the patio is wide and open. No alcoholic drinks but some very tasty mocktails. I subtracted one star due to the valet being so unorganized.“
“As A TRANS person I was never misgendered at KASRA today . The server I believe is of Turkish background and addressed me as Madam not sir or monsieur . Which happens frequently even if I am in very Feminine attire. And always it’s American born millennials. It’s people from foreign countries who have a thing or two that American Born Hospitality workers need to take note of.. I am not someone that demands to be addressed in my correct Gender. I don’t let it bother me. However your tip does depend upon more than you refilling my tea glass . KASRA has impressed me with their Food more than once already. Todays visit we ordered Lamb and the vegetarian sampler with #’s 1,2,3 The Lamb shank is a fall off the Bone tender succulent piece of meat . The flavor is not overwhelming but in the right proportion. My friend added salt to her rice but I did not. The rice was perfect for me. I saw a review of another place that was critical of that places rice because it wasn’t salty enough. And while eating at Bludorn the table next to me was complaining about the rice being unsalted. Note:Don’t believe half the reviews you read on google . Some people have bad taste and do not know what good food is . But I do … if I say GO! You need to Go! I did 4 FOUR reviews on restaurants in Houston that are James Beard Finalists BEFORE THEY MADE THE LIST !. I broke my Fast of Five (5) Days at KASRA on Sunday , 17th of March . This was a time for inner reflection . I Am 90 days Sober now . . This just was a pure coincidence my fast took place the same time as Ramadan. . First off the starting line ?Thank you for your warm hospitality your food could have been terrible and I would still give 5 stars . I had such an incredible experience, everything was perfect. And the place is beautiful with other happy people. I’m hoping that reading this you will go and spend time here and money. This restaurant should be supported because of the great food and hospitality. The staff just aren’t order takers they are Oder coaches I have a personal life coach that I consult with and now I can count on the staff here to help out with my decisions on food items I have no idea about.“
“It was a lovely experience. We got to test the meats while unsure what to opt for. The sauce was a little spicy but as it is not to be ranked for. I'm just weak nature. The staff was friendly and kind and didn't come check on me with my mouth full which I appreciate immensely.“
“Our family of ten folks thoroughly enjoyed the food! We were recommended to try the tasting menu - and it was a hit! We got to sample so many of the delicious appetizers and entrees and we all were stuffed. Highly recommend the food and service - we were treated like family.“
“Recently got invited to b' day dinner there and gosh the food was good. Perhaps I was hungry but I felt the portions (rice) was small, but the lamb with combo basmatti rice with grilled tomatoes was heavenly ?. They substituted the original onions with carrots, which were grilled, and it paired so well!!“
“Everything is delicious, it is a very good option for all those who want to maintain the diet without sacrificing flavor, the employees are very friendly and respectful, the atmosphere is very pleasant and warm, ideal for going alone or with a group. You will love it.“
“Friendly attentive staff, delicious food, and incredible atmosphere. We ordered the Sarma which was hearty and delicious beef and rice cooked in a delicate tomato sauce. Don’t leave without ordering the beef, cheese, or spinach Burek. We will definitely be returning soon!“
“There is no other place that brings Israeli food to Houston like this!!! First of all it is clean which is very important to me that this is homemade food, secondly you can see that the owner of the place does everything with love and from the heart and this is also reflected in the taste of the food so thank you for delicious food and the affordable price.I will definitely come back again!“
“Finally was able to try Big Bite and so glad I did. I ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and a gyro. Both were very good with lots of meat and the classic flavors you are looking for. Meat was tender, juicy and not over salted. Sauces were all great and the chili sauce had a nice little kick.Luckily, the owner showed up while I was there because he told me that the ‘over rice’ things are what they are know for. He hooked me up with a sample that blew me away with that flavor packed rice. That is the way to go. Excellent!! You don’t have to be out at the bars to stop by and grab some grub. So make a stop!“
“I was driving by and decided to try it for dinner. The food was excellent. Service was great. They were very accommodating to my friends need for a low sodium meal.I had the Adana Kabab the flavor was amazing. Give it a try, you will not be “
“This place recently extended and remodeled interior. Their lamb chop is pretty good, one of the top 5? in Houston, I will say. Kabab's good too. They serve the main dishes over the yellow rice and the amount of rice is alot! If you are planning to visit this place you have to be prepared. haha~ They have so many tables and I was sitted near the end and was hard to get server's attention. They should pay more attention to end/coner tables.“
“This restaurant is amazing. I really enjoyed my food. I ordered the half grain and half greens bowl with braised lamb and falafel. The breeze lamb was juicy and delicious and the falafel was awesome. The cucumber mint lemonade is to die for. This place based on food would be a 10 out of 10, but because the service was not great I had to takeoff a star. I would recommend knowing what you want before you come here because the staff was a little impatient with me asking a couple of questions (I have allergies so I have to ask).“
“I could live on the pita, dips and mashed potato balls! Everything is beautifully presented which makes it hard to choose, but I haven’t been disappointed in anything. As a vegetarian I haven’t tried the meat but my family/friends love the kabobs. Great for delivery as well!“
“The place was nice, and the waiters were great!! The food was amazing. I would recommend the tasting menu but go there hungry because it is a lot of food. However, we did not know the place became like a nightclub after 10. We did leave earlier because it was too much. So, if you are not looking for that scene, I would get there earlier.“
“Chicken Charmoula bowl. The food here is good, the chicken is tender and the food tastes very fresh. However, the protein portion is pretty small. Not the same case for the sides or rice, but the protein portion is quite small, which is why I gave 4 stars. If the protein portion increases, this would be my go to lunch spot!“
“This is a laid back family style place that is so delicious. There are some food items that are a little different than the Mediterranean food we are all seen. It’s fairly priced and all the recipes are flavorful fresh and fun to try. Love this place. And pretty day on the patio. This is a great place to be!“
“Came in and was honestly just so appreciative of the service and hospitality. Asked me what I wanted on my bowl, gave me great portions and the food was amazing. Seasoned perfect, veggies were cold and crisp just everything was on point. I'm from Austin but will definitely hit this spot up next time I'm in Houston!!!“
“We had recently gotten married at the wine cellar here, followed by the nine course menu with the Premium wine pairing. We were beyond pleased with every aspect of the evening. The food was phenomenal. The wine was wonderful, and so perfectly paired. And to top it off, the service was outstanding. Also, watch out! The bar makes such tasty drinks! You would think you wouldn’t drink more in addition to a 9 course wine paring…but the cocktails were so fabulous we just kept drinking up!We couldn’t be more grateful to Mae, who helped us coordinate the evening weeks before. She is very lovely and helpful. And the night wouldn’t be what it was without Cody… He led us through the cocktail room down to the wine cellar, and then to the private room for the remainder of our evening. He has amazing personality, I felt like he was part of our party!Thank you so much for making our evening perfect!“
“Wow. Ordered this on Uber eats cause I seen a reel on IG. And they were not exaggerating about how good this is!!!! So much flavor in each bite. Had the tacos, wraps and chicken wings over rice. My fav were the wings. Smoky and delicious!!!! I will definitely be getting this again.“
“A group of 8 of us came and glad we picked this place to have lunch.Kids preferred double rice and I got the gyro beef. Staff is friendly and accommodating as we were trying to figure out if the kids wanted vegetables or toppings (parent life).Very generous with the white sauce and actually asked if we wanted more while we dined, which was very sweet of her.Remember to download the app and scan your account at checkout. We forgot and the app doesn’t allow for receipt scans.Clean store, quick service, and the order ahead feature someone used seemed pretty quick.Only suggestion would be to find a way to keep the rice and meat a bit hotter (temperature).“
“Niko Niko's continues to be a delightful experience. The atmosphere is warm, the music is bouncy and not too loud. The food is delicious. I had the gyros plate. I love their oven potatoes, as they're not overwhelmingly lemon flavored. Their tzatziki is a sauce of beauty (I could drink it from a bucket and be happy).“
“I have a nutrition certification and this place passes all of my tests for good quality food. I got decaf coffee and the eggless pancakes. Great! You must try it. They make all of their food from scratch and make a lot of homemade sauces. So worth going!“
“Excellent food service starting from the best management: always nice, organized and friendly. The best Mediterranean cuisine I’ve ever had starting from the fresh pita bread, falafel, sandwiches to go always the best! I think it’s the best place to come to eat and try everything by choice of your taste.“
“Went here with my boyfriend and I's late night anniversary dinner. Did not disappoint.Note: they do serve hookah so if you're a person who doesn't like smoke this is probably not the best place to eat.They open till 2am so it's a very good choice for late night dinner.Anyways, the entrance was absolutely GORGEOUS. It's a little too humid outside right now or else I'd sit outside in the patio, because the ambience looks so pretty back there.Now to the food. I didn't take a picture of the "Parker'z Shrimp", but trust me ORDER THAT. ITS SOO GOOD.The sauce is to die for. (10/10)Now the entrees, I ordered the Parker'z Pasta with grilled salmon. SO good they give you so much food with a huge slab of salmon. Tender and delicious. (9/10)My boyfriend ordered the mixed platter which I've eaten before. It's good but nothing new to me. Tender soft meats on rice. (7.8/10)Customer service was well attentive, forgot my drink for a bit, but was a very nice guy. I absolutely loved that he gave his honest opinion about the dishes instead of saying everything is good. He was detailed on which dishes he thought was good and others that were subpar. Made sure we knew what we were getting! Love itP.S: Although I did absolutely LOVED everything I ate here. I should note that when I got home. I got hives on my arms. (Went away in a couple hours. Bathing in vinegar is my best friend)An ingredient in their signature sauce I probably have a food allergy to. Have no idea what though. It was SO good tho. Sad :c.Recommend? YESVegetarian options: It’s a halal place so definitely a lot of vegetarian options. Also their drinks are no alcohol (mocktails)Parking: LOTS of free parking space“
“This is more of a buffet place. Definitely spacious and it gets busy. You choose your food, pay and then sit down to eat. No frills. Food was good (had fish rice, which got cold quickly though). I'm not crazy for Middle Eastern food but food was good and came at a fair price. Good place for a quick meal.Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie dishes available.“
“This was an excellent experience. The service, presentation and attention to detail were superb. The drinks and the food were outstanding. A meal to remember is the summation of my dining adventure here. If I were closer, this would be put into a rotational basis.“
“Me and my family went there after a day at the Rodeo. I ordered the Island Greek Salad, which was delicious! I think my husband ordered a burger, and my mom, I think the Caesar Salad with Cod. At first, they forgot to add the cod to my mom's salad, and she had to wait a while for them to bring it out, but other than that, it was pretty good! It looked like a good place to get healthy food. I'd probably go there again if I'm in the area.“
“It matters to me, how employees are treated by their management. Where I spend my money matters especially now. An employee was serving a client ahead of me in a To-go platter. As he serves the gentleman. A man, about 5’10, black curly hair, in a fitted well ironed stripped long sleeve button up with black slacks came around to “help” as I assumed. But instead he grabs the platter out of the employees hand as he towers over him, looks him up and down, SCOFFS, and his facial expression didn’t match the situation, it was discuss and distain. Mind you, it was about tabouli being put in a place in the To-Go box. This happened in front of me, and in front of another client. He says nothing to the employee but an eye roll. And proceeds to serve the other client. Why does it matter? Why do I care? I have worked in the food industry my whole life, and just like that man treated the employee I too was treated in such ways. If you don’t understand, I’m sorry you have lived a life of convenience and haven’t had to experience being mistreated. The food is excellent the, the place is clean. The only thing that is lacking, is their humanity. Do better. Be kinder.“
“Affordable authentic Turkish cuisine. Convenient location near TMC.Lentil soup a must, we tried home delivery and selected various kabob meals and sandwiches.Vegetable, cheese Turkish Burecks good to try as appetizers.Lamb, beef & chicken selections are fresh with good seasonings.?“
“EXCELLENT food and service!! I had cataract bread that came out after I took this pic, but it was delicious and full of the spice!! So tasty! BUT … I do like the Zatar bread with a lil more crunch. Everything was delicious though!! The pita chips (very flavorful) too!! AND it was happy hour so the bill came to $10 off with tip included!!“
“Great food, great service, wines are reasonably priced. There is a $12 corkage fee if you bring your own. Only minor annoyance, and it's something they have no control over, is if you're seating outside there is a very active freight railroad track right next to the building. Some might be annoyed.“
“Talk about an amazing experience! Late night reservation for two. Such great service from hostess to a very clean bathroom . Food was delicious , hot and presentable. I wasn’t expecting this level of elegance connected to the Galleria Mall. .“
“Everything is delicious and the service is great. I'm gluten free and it's very easy to find something here.Dietary restrictions: Everything on the menu is clearly labeled, which makes it easy to see what's vegan or gluten free.“
“I love Fadi’s , it’s just that most of the times food is not enough, I mean food+ customer service + wait time+ quality+ consistency + presentation = 5 star . I like it when it’s all fresh , specially the salad , ?, not soggy . Sometimes I see that pesto pasta sits for too long and the size of the pasta puff up or enlarge due to , as it sits for too long . Anyways Susan is always courteous, kind and she is very soft spoken as well. But every location taste different and I have no idea why??? Good food always .Parking: It’s very congested and that it’s just too many restaurants and other businesses in a row and that makes the situation worse.“
“Hungry so stopped by for quick lunch in the galleria. Large indoor space and ample patio dining. Chicken sandwich was tasty with juicy chicken and it was nice and warm. The fries are more big potato wedges but also fine Casual, clean bathrooms, full stomach Recommended if you are close by! Pricing is $17.58“
“Cheese with parley mannoushe is amazing. The cheese and bread are fresh and delicious. Best to eat as soon as it comes out of the oven.I was told the shawarma here was one of the best in town but unfortunately it didn’t live up to the hype. It was cold and the chicken didn’t have any “OG” shawarma sear on it.The sujjok wrap was also served warm/cool and was basically minced beef with sujjok seasonings.“
“Al Hawi Food Truck is a hidden gem in Houston, undoubtedly a top 10 spot to eat! Their lamb and beef skewers are the best, boasting very tender meat and perfect cooking. The staff is exceptionally friendly, and although there's no seating, parking is usually hassle-free with ample space behind the truck at the supermarket. The food, always freshly cooked, might take a bit if they're busy, but it's worth the wait. Open till late, they consistently serve hot, delicious food. A must-try for food enthusiasts!“
“I shop here weekly and have nothing but good things to say. Mostly I purchase pita bread (in varying sizes) along with Zaatar Manakeesh. The bread is always fresh, delicious and well priced. They also have the ability to take orders for large purchases if you need it for an event or just have a large family. For other items I would recommend the date maamoul , labneh, hot sauce, or tabouli which are all made in house. Droubis also carries various mediterranean cheeses so I make sure to grab some from their deli. The owner and staff are great people and I always enjoy the conversations I have with them.“
“We've been Island Grill customers for a while. There's always a nice variety of vegetarian dishes for my daughter in law, my son will always have the same as me. My granddaughter likes their cookies for dessert while I enjoy a juicy Philly cheesesteak.Christina at the Tanglewood location alwayd has the best smile.“

“Seems like a nice enough place to sit down with a team and have a lunch. Staff was quick to take the order, but definitely longer in fulfilling it. Food was adequate but obviously pre-formed and not being sliced off a spit in the back - definitely not your standard gyro. Props to the iced tea.“
“We ate lunch here today. It was really awesome. Great wait staff and the manager (owner?) is super friendly and inviting. I had the carnivore pizza and it was legit the best pizza I've ever eaten. Obviously hand-made and done very well. Excellent place. Will definitely return regularly!“
“This place just opened, and they are so nice and friendly, it's inside the Dudestop new gas station, I ordered a Philly cheese steak with no onion or bell pepper, and add mushrooms due my food allergy, and they fixed it with no complaints and were happy to serve me. My daughter had the chicken sandwich, it was so delicious, hot fresh and fast. They stay open till 2 am on weekends and midnight during the week. He made sure to let us know they take phone orders and will have it ready as soon as we arrive. Definitely will be returning, as I was so hungry 8 forgot to take pictures. It's a 10 out of 10. Come on in and try them .Vegetarian options: They have falafel and just vegetarian options as well as regular foods. Dietary restrictions: They will customize your order with joy. I am allergic to onions and they made sure to not put onions anywhere near my food. “
“Amazing amazing spot!! The food is full of spices thus oozes with flavor!! There are great menu options including raw juices. The inside is a very cool, contemporary atmosphere — it’s the best place in the strip mall! Give it a go; it will not disappoint!“
“Best grilled chicken EVER! My 1st visit but I'll definitely be back to try other items. The chicken, rice, bread and humus were fabulous!Parking: Located in a small strip shopping center with other businesses. I went during mid-afternoon and had no problem finding a parking spot.“
“This was the first time me and my family come to try a Yemeni restaurant,,, I was not for sure about it before and I became surprised… I really loved the floor sitting that is hiding in the back side it was so comfortable and relaxed in our own space. I don’t know the name but Thank you to the Server with the afghan hat who showed us, she made us feel welcomed,,, I told to her it was our first time to see Yemen food and I think she become more than excited than us haha ,,, honestly great lady! We ordered the Mendi tray of lamb that comes on a big platter of rice with Yemen type salsa and cucumber yogurt sauce the meat was yummy and good taste, so full of flavor. It was so much food we could not finish all. The server invited us to come back and try out the handith lamb and Yemen dessert and tea.,,,so now we have to be back for sure. After all It was a enjoyable authentic experience, with the good service. I did not seen other places like this one,,, maybe there is other like it but I’m too much happy we find Hadramout. I give my recommendation to try this restaurant. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“It was my first time trying Mediterranean food in Texas. We were visiting from Chicago. And dining buffet in Dimassi’s restaurant was amazing! The food was delicious, the staff is friendly and welcoming. I really liked the way they cooked the veggie falafel and tabule salad. And the zaatar with spinach was so tasty.Definitely recommend to visit with large group of people??“
“It lives up to the name, Fresh! I would certainly give this place more than 5 stars if I could. Not only is the food here delicious, the service is great and the facility is clean & convenient. They have numerous food choices for everyone's palate, including Halal meat choices. The prices are fairly reasonable and they do not skimp out on portions either. I've tried the Philly Cheesesteak with Fries and the Spicy Southwest Chicken Sandwich, both of which were delicious! If you are looking for tasty, healthy, and affordable food, do give this spot a try!“
