We absolutely love this restaurant. We came here to celebrate several birthdays and were honored to have Chef Kiran came out to greet us. Actually she spent about 15 minutes with us and we felt like she was a part of the family. Everything was excellent. The service was outstanding. Thank you Chef Kiran and your hard working staff for a perfect evening.

Kiran's is "always" delicious!! Fabulous interior and ambiance. The adult beverages are perfectly crafted and served. The menu offers mouth watering options that taste as wonderful as they read. There is plenty of garage parking available and the restaurant will validate your ticket. Valet parking is also available. Enjoy both indoor or outdoor seating.

Kiran's offers a sophisticated yet welcoming ambiance, where you'll find a mix of casually dressed patrons and those sporting Kentucky Derby-worthy attire. The fusion of Indian and British elements creates a unique and memorable atmosphere. The tea selection is outstanding, with Darjeeling and Masala tea standing out as top choices. The real highlight, however, lies in the delectable afternoon treats that boast an Indian twist. From the flavorful bites to the delightful sweets, these unique creations truly make the experience at Kiran's unforgettable. Whether you're a tea enthusiast or a food lover seeking a distinct fusion of flavors, Kiran's is a must-visit destination.

So we happen to try this restaurant at houston, it serves modern Indian cuisine. The food is really good but nothing extraordinary just a little heavy on pocket. You can always try once just to experience the elite and classy ambiance of the restaurant. The food you see in the pictures along with 4 cocktails costed us 200$ 😳

Dined here for my Birthday. Great service. Very professional. First time here but would definitely like to return. Our waiter was super helpful with meal selections. Food and drinks were excellent!!

Hard for any restaurant to live upto the hype when you’re a New Yorker who’s been hearing about it for a decade from a friend who insists “it’s worth a trip to Houston.” Well, I finally made it to Houston, and made it to Kiran’s and I have to say I was blown away. Am already looking for excuses to return to Houston so I can make a return visit here. It’s a Texas-sized restaurant (seemingly endless sections of spaces that I didn’t get to explore) and I had one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. From the outside door with a giant K in Hindi script to the open kitchen where chefs were hard at work to the overall decor, everything is so tastefully put together. The wall of fame is an appropriate mix of well-known Texans and visiting Indian celebrities (hello, CNN’s Dr. Sanjay Gupta). I had originally booked a table for six for Saturday lunch, but we ended up being 14 and they kindly moved us to their community table, a nice long table with plenty of elbow room. Their private party room was already booked (besides, it seats 12). We let our wonderful waiter guide us with a series of appetizers that ranged from traditional Indian items to fusion items, including naan-pizza combos (naanzzas). Every item was delicious and it was a dizzying array of tastes, flavors and aromas. Can you believe we ate so much we didn’t even get to a single entree? Will have to be back to try them! We did try multiple, excellent desserts. We had several vegetarians amongst us, and we seated them together on one part of the table. They had plenty of options and were very happy. A friend with specific allergies called ahead and they made him a special plate. Am sure you want specific item recommendations, so here goes, from memory two weeks later: calamari; lamb belly; chicken wings and lollipops; lamb samosas; chili tikka; mushroom medley; chaat; margherita naanzza; garden naanzaa… the list goes on. Owner and chef Kiran Verma and her daughter and co-owner Puja came by to say hello. As we applauded, we asked her why she hadn’t started a branch in NYC yet. She said she was concentrating on perfecting this restaurant. She said she travels to the top restaurants in cities like NYC (Le Bernadin is a fave) to make sure she’s keeping up with world-class restaurants… They should be visiting HER to make sure they’re keeping up! Adding it to my list of #25MemorableMeals. I will be back.

Kirans is the most majestic fusion of Indian cuisine you will find in Houston. Their dishes are always innovative, daring, and delicious! The specialty courses are a treat. They have plenty of veg and non veg options, and there are many choices of all spice levels. All of the breads are great. Masala chai is a highlight as well. Rack of lamb special was spectacular! You won't be dissapointed. The service is unparalleled.

I have been to this place twice and I love the atmosphere here. This place is expensive and I would expect the food to match the price. But unfortunately that’s not the case. Some dishes are great but majority of the dishes were underwhelming and not so tasty. The starters/desserts were really good but the main course was well below par. We also tried the afternoon tea on a different day. Too expensive for the menu that’s delivered.

This place was fantastic. The service was top notch, the food is delicious, the options for what to order seem endless, and the ambiance is relaxingly enjoyable. I celebrated my birthday by having dinner here and I’m super glad I did. The curry was amazing and desserts were very tasty. Our server was incredible, he knew everything on the menu, was kind and engaging, and provided a wonderful experience. I can’t think of a bad thing to say about this place. Prepare to spend more than you would at a normal restaurant, I would consider it fine-dining and it is priced as such. For special occasions though, this is a lovely place to try and I’m excited to return to continue to enjoy the delicious cuisine!

We came across this restaurant as we were visiting Houston and wanted to try out a good indian restaurant. We searched for it online and it led to Kiran's. Our experience with the restaurant was good and the food was amazing as well. We really enjoyed it and will definitely try it again. Chef Kiran has done an amazing job.

Our visit to Kiran’s was amazing from food to ambience to service. GREAT experience, I would recommend Kiran’s to who looking for special occasion celebration, corporate meetings or just family dinner. This place has checked all the bars for all your expectations. I am new in Houston and Kiran’s is so far the best indian restaurants in the area I have came across yet.

I think Kiran’s is very over rated in terms of ambience as well as price. Their bar is decent. I liked the service and chef Kiran Verma personally visit each and every table for feedback of food. The quality of food is awesome but lacks the authenticate Indian taste. I was very disappointed with the tea. The way the server over exaggerated the tea, I am a tea lover - when I ordered it was not close even 1%. It’s one of the worst tea I ever had…

Kiran’s is one of my favorite restaurants in Houston. Every dish is incredible. The must haves in my opinion are: pani poori, lobster tail, bengan bartha, and of course the chicken tikka. Everything is incredible. The service is great as well.

Second time visiting Kiran’s and it was simply as amazing as the first time. The food is exceptional. Inside is beautiful with warm lighting and very cozy. The birthday cake was a little different how it was made, it’s not the usual fluffy style cake but it was still good. In the mood for a tasty dish? Indian cuisine? Make sure to check them out, you won’t be disappointed.

I would highly recommend this place, food was very delicious and service was top notch, Neat and clean place. We ordered couple of dishes but trust me Medley of wild mushrooms, salmon and chicken jalfareezi was excellent.. so fresh and juicy. Once you entered in the restaurant premises you feel privileged.. they are so professional.

Absolutely phenomenal experience at Kirans. Every dish was spectacular in presentation and taste. The atmosphere was extravagant and the service was second-to-none. I highly recommend you try the Kheer and Chicken Chaat...you won't believe how amazing they taste.

First, big shout out to Josue and his team! Tea time here is a MUST! 🫖 the tea is trill, the food is fabulous, the staff is superb, that environment is elegant, the vibes are vibrant. This the kind of place where you can confidently drop a stack and know that you’re going to get a stack’s worth. It almost feels like another world where pinkies stand tall from the window to the wall. Smiles don’t fall, even during the fall…In other words, just go and thank me later 😉

For special occasions and exquisite Indian food, go to Kiran’s at 2925 Richmond. Every dish we ordered was delicious—lamb korma, rhogan josh, chicken tikka marsala and Butter chicken. The chef prepared a special dosa with lamb and lentils that was divine. Taj Mahal lager beer was refreshing. Birthday dessert was delicious. Chef Kiran Verma, a 2023 James Beard Semifinalist for Best Chef Texas. Expensive but worth it!

We went to Kiran's for our post-wedding lunch. As usual, the food was impeccable and the service was fabulous. They were highly accomodating and gracious to our party of ten. We ordered dahi bada chat, malai kofta, karahi paneer and dal makhani. I think it is one of the best indian restaurants in Houston and perhaps, even Texas.

Beautiful restaurant. Very well designed. Elegant and classy. Staff - service is extremely well. Food was delicious. The serving plates from The plate design was amazing. Definitely a location to try out, good for lunch and dinner. Does have Lunch menu options but can also order from the dinner menu. Great for hosting your out of town guests to explore the great cuisine.

first time visiting this restaurant and , honestly I enjoyed so much I like the place , the food , and the services so much

If you want to experience indian dishes without traditional indian touch this is the place to go. Ambience and light was ok! I have seen much better places like that in India and in Houston as well. Flavor was ok. (I am vegetarian). Service is poor. Make sure to put the order exactly as you want. In my case they served soup then veg biryani then chapati and then main dish. There was 15 minute of difference between serving Chapati and main dish. Luckily we got spoon placed on the table by the time we got Chapatis. We stayed there for 1.5 hrs and for the whole time we were involved in dinner only. If you are from India and missing Indian food then definitely this is not the place to go. (Sorry for you Modi Ji.). It would be generous to give even 2 stars.

Most amazing Indian food to be found anywhere, anytime. Love to curries, naans, samosas . . . . . but the innovative desserts make a fine fusion experience. Wait staff is superb and the evening has been unmatched in H-Town. Visiting is a must for the most dire Indian cuisine enthusiasts or novice enjoying Naan pizzas. 5 stars are not enough :)

Definitely the superior fine dining experience for Indian food in Houston. The quality and creativity of the menu is the highlight. A perfect place to celebrate an evening with friends/family.

Phew where to start! Had a lovely Monday night experience here and was honestly surprised at how much I enjoyed everything. Service: service was top! Before seating, we were taken care of at the bar before our whole party arrived. The bartender gave great drink recs and was so great to talk to. Once seated, our server Sage, took care of us efficiently and had great recs when we needed them. Food came out at a timely manner and sometimes the curries look alike but every dish was explained to us. Taste: The food surprised me. I remember coming to Kirans many maaaany years ago and thinking it was ok (mostly because I don't like Indian food 'fused' with anything). This time however, the food was quite authentic in my opinion. The vindaloo was delicious and spicy as it usually should be, the madras had a deep curry flavor, and the prawn was super flavorful. Overall the food was 5/5 for me, really impressed with it. Is it expensive for Indian food? You could argue yes. Unreasonable? No. Between the 9 of us we got 8 curries, 5 appetizers, a dessert and a few drinks and didn't break 100 per person. Quite reasonable and worth the money to be honest. This might not be the case in the event of a date or a small group so take that in mind. I would recommend this place for larger parties to get your moneys worth or as a special celebration dinner where you don't mind splurging. It's a gorgeous restaurant with delicious cocktails and a good wine list, you are paying for the experience. Will be returning!

Ordered takeout. Palak paneer, garlic onion lacena naan. Amazing. Very authentic taste of the palak paneer. I got spicy and it was spicy. Perfection. The roti is good but could be softer. The mango lassi was perfect. I wish I would've received a straw as I requested on the order but nonetheless I could taste the flavors. Would love to return to this place next time I come. I returned! Sat in at the restaurant this time. Its a wonderful experience. This restaurant is so high class and feels wonderful to experience this once at least. The seating arrangement itself is so comfy! The food is just so delicious! The keema tastes so authentic and tasty. The chicken tikka sauce was great. Love the garlic naan. The saffron rice is perfect. Great wine options also! Sweet staff. They are just so kind! You need to come here if youre in Houston!!!!!

I had a fantastic experience dining at this Indian restaurant! The food was delicious and there were so many varieties to choose from. The restaurant looked grand and had a bar on site, which was a nice touch. The employees were very welcoming and made the experience even better. Highly recommend!

Superb service, atmosphere, and food. I ordered the Lamb Vindaloo, rice, garlic nan, and a side of mint chutney. The vindaloo was perfectly spicy with flavor elements that delighted my taste buds with each bite. It was absolutely delicious! Also, the Mint Chutney was the creamiest chutney I have ever eaten. Kiran’s offers fantastic food and a truly elegant experience.

5 stars isn't enough for Kiran's! The food, service, and atmosphere were exceptional. Our business party was made even more special by Kiran Verma's warm welcome and availability despite the busy dinner service. Highly recommend for private parties and events! 👏

Horrible!!! We made reservations for Feb 14, weeks prior in which. I contacted the hostess name Leigha to confirm that there was no special menu for Feb 14. In which the Leigha stated no, and that we could order off the menu in perfect English. The next day I got a call from Kirans staff member named Precious and she stated "By the way the price is $95 per plate." I replied by stating no, spoke and confirmed with Leigha and it was a basic menu. I also check on line, in which the tasting menu was not able to be clicked only the standard menu. Kirans staff stated that a manager would call again and speak to me, in which I got a call from Pooja stating that she could not honor the original reservation that Leigha had made. Pooja stated that Leigha did not speak very good english and it was her 2nd language which is why there was miscommunication and that her staff was also calling other reservations to give them the "bait and switch" update. We canceled reservations because of this.

Good atmosphere

After having the wrong tea served several times at the $45++ per person tea and snack services, got told of $20 comp as apology, but check also came included with 20% gratuity ($14) for party of two. This 20% fixed gratuity rate is not mentioned anywhere - in person, in the menu or on restaurant website. The credit card slip also leave tips line empty. If I wasn't careful with the detail bill, may have tipped twice for the poor services. Partial kudos to management for the $20 comp. My suggestion is to make the tip policy and amount clearer. If the fixed tip amount is 20% then have it clearly stated. Not the "+ Tax and Gratuity" that you currently have on the menu. And put "already included" on the credit card slip.

We visited Kiran’s during a weekend trip to Houston from Austin. We read excellent reviews about the food and ambiance and truthfully, couldn’t have been more disappointed. The music felt like we were in a hotel lobby - not culturally relevant at all - sort of just background noise. We waited a really long time for our food and when it arrived ir was unceremoniously dropped off at the table with little explanation for what dish was what. Our initial appetizer was barely touched and we wanted additional yogurt to dip, but our server didn’t check on us once to realize that we weren’t enjoying it. Overall the flavors felt lackluster and the dishes were overpriced. For the price I would have expected so much more...

The ambiance lures you into a fine dining experience of Indian cuisine. The food is exceptional and the service is excellent. My favorite dish was the bhagre baingan and the chicken biryani.

We stopped by for a quick bite, tried the Chaat and Indian tea. The Chaat was great and tea was mind-blowing! Just what I needed before a long drive back to Austin.

Beautiful. Impeccable service. Superior cleanliness. Quality dishes.

Absolutely amazing! Great food and service. ❤️ ??

Great tea service for a decent price. It is 5 courses with 2 different teas. You also get unlimited masala chai in between. The total tea service cost about $251 with tax and gratuity is added at the end. You can choose to add an additional tip if you would like. Valet is free. The service is a full 2 hours and you use every minute of it. The restaurant is beautiful perfect for pictures and the waiters are wonderful about asking to take pictures as well. We had a Darjeeling which was lovely and light and an earl grey tea to end. I think that the earl grey should have come with the sandwiches and the Darjeeling should have come with the petite fours would have been better paired. The mushroom samosas are delicious and the chutney pairs get well with it. The cranberry orange scones are good but they fall apart and crumble all over the place. The berry jam and clotted were both exquisite. All the sandwiches were delicious except for the duck which was not to my taste. All the desserts were delicious and appropriately sized. Come on an empty stomach as the service is filling. Service was a little slow and tea was not really brought out on time. Overall an excellent experience.

Very good food. Try tester

Well, this was my 3rd trip to Kiran. First 2 trip i was guest and host ordered my food and they were great and tasty. This time I ordered fish both fish dishes were not done well right. So I was very disappointed this time. We also ordered goat cheese and pistachio ice cream bowls. They were OK but pricey :-(( for tye size and quality.

Perfect every single time. We went to Kiran's for a birthday dinner on Saturday. The food was delicious and service impeccable. Everything that was served was top notch and the quantity just right. Our server was extremely attentive and the service was prompt. It's always a great dining experience at Kiran's!!

I will be bringing family next time. Bring your appetite because portions are filling. Reminds me of a cafe in Chicago I loved to visit.

Best Indian restaurant in Houston. Everything is made from scratch. They have a different kind of chef's specializing in different ingredients. The owner is warm and welcoming, we were treated with a homemade desserts, made by the pastry chef?

Had the summer tasting menu. Amazing! Def recommend

Went here for HRW. This was the best Indian food Ive had here in Houston. Def recommend. Drinks were tasty also. Wouldve given 5 stars but our waiter wasnt up to par. He kept forgetting this and seemed to be in a rush until the check came.

(Translated by Google) Is incredible!!! (Original) Es increible!!!

One of the worst restaurant I have ever been to. Food was terribly cold and over priced. Servers were not even attending in appropriate time wasn’t even provided with menu had to ask for it after 10 minutes. Do yourself a favor and never visit here again

Great atmosphere. Carefully prepared dishes and attentive staff. Extensive menu and authentic cuisine. It's pricey, but worth the coin.

Was here for a happy hour with 2 others. The drinks we got were all made great and had a great experience with service. There are a few delays due to Covid and lesser staff but everything we drank and ate was incredible. The food is very interesting and they have several fun fusion dishes we tried.

Despite the other positive reviews, I found the food to be underwhelming and overpriced.

So disappointed with dinner. We have had several amazing meals here. We were seated in the new section. We had to endure the owners long, loud business meeting. Multiple speaker phone calls made. One about finding a restaurant for you to order your son food. After waiting an hour for my food, I was wondering what restaurant I could get food delivered from. I have a suggestion, pay attention to what's going on in YOUR restaurant. The food was ridiculously late, not served in sync. Got naan for dessert. The loud business meeting and speaker phone calls weren't pleasant for us and it was unprofessional. We live an hour away but went there after being at MD Anderson expecting a pleasant lovely dinner. It was NOT.

Simply the best Indian fine-dining experience in Houston. My wife and I each did a tasting menu, mine the Chef’s tasting, hers the vegetarian. We shared each other’s meal. It was just the most delightful and delicious experience. Please patronize Kiran’s during this epidemic-induced restaurant slow down- it would be a disaster to lose such a place.

Shrimp and Prawn Curry was excellent, the whole dining experience was awesome!! The ambience,music, service,interior, all was awesome!!!

Food is delicious and the chicken tikka masala was suuuuuper yummy ? we loved everything: food, service, seating and atmosphere.

Delicious food but a bit expensive be careful. Nice seating ambience.

Kiran's made my special night the most amazing! They treated me like a princess on my wedding night! I will never forget how special they made me feel! Thank you so much for the amazing cuisine and the friendliest people who make magic moments even more magical!

The best Indian food in Houston. Every bite I had was delicious. Amazing food does come at a high cost though, be wary.

2+ hours of wait and no food finally left..

Kiran’s always exceeds expectations. I ordered in from uber eats, and was pleasantly surprised with the attention to detail, and a yummy surprise!

Updated- Has become my favorite place for curbside pick up. The food is awesome and I look forward to it during a these hard times. Definitely the best pani poori in town. Previous review- This is one of my favorite Indian restaurants. A bit on the expensive side but the food is totally worth it.

Nice food

You already know..

spicy and not overwhelming, flavorful and delicious. comfortable setting overall great experience

Really good ambience, service and quality food with taste.went here for my husbands birthday and it was special. Highly recommend if you are looking for good fine dine.

I am not sure how authentic the food is but definitely the best Indian restaurant in Houston for me!

This is a beautiful place and the food is wonderful. Knowledgeable wait staff willing to share their thoughts when asked.

Food was not to my liking

It breaks my heart to write this experience but we had a bad dinner here.We were seated on time and asked for a high chair for our child several times and we left after 2hrs and it still didnt come! Ordered food,Dosa was bad ,soggy and sambar didn't taste like sambar. I come from india and know what indian food should taste like. Gobi Manchurian is more like Gobi Sabzi and that's not what u want to eat as a starter. Roomali roti was so so dry and hard to eat till the time it came to our table. We waited for every course for almost 30 mins plus. We waited for our bill for 30 mins more lol. I mean if we spent $180 on a 2 person dinner I expect quality and excellent service which was sadly missing. Mind you I have rated this place earlier last year with a 5 star rating and a raving review but won't be coming back again!

The Chicken Tikka Masala is delicious! It's spicy but packed with tons of flavor. You can't go wrong with any type of naan. Large portions - even on takeout orders.

Best Indian restaurant

Ambiance takes a front seat to the actual taste of the food. Highly priced for the quality of the food. It's very normal food for the price of the food options. Don't go with any big expectations.

Went here for the first time recently. The menu has typcial Indian food but also has a large variety of not-quite-typical Indian food (fusion?). We had the Chilean Sea Bass, Foie Gras, Crab Cakes, Mushroom Medley and the Lamp Lollipops. Everything we ate was fantastic (but if you've eaten Foie Gras in France I'd say it was a notch below). Pricing was not extravagant for the quality of the restaurant, but it was not "inexpensive".

Ambiance, service & food are amazing.

(Translated by Google) The finest restaurant in Houston so far the owner of the restaurant is the chef, which is the summit in the sophistication and dealing with customers (Original) أرقى مطعم في هيوستن حتى الآن صاحبه المطعم هي الشف وهي قمه في الرقي والتعامل مع الزبائن

Absolutely superb. Great food, service, and atmosphere.

Absolutely loved my dining experience here. I have nothing negative to say about it. The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and the vibe was elegant and formal. Be prepared to pay a little bit more than you would at other restaurants, but this place definitely delivers with everything that they have in the menu. I was especially pleased with the paneer dishes and the stuffed naans that are on the menu. I would go back here as many times as I could, if it wouldn’t make me go broke.

Great ambiance and good food.

Excellent experience. I’m one who thought Iwould not like Indian Food. The Duck, Lamb and the chicken was delicious. The rice? Out of this world. The chickpea chips 💣. Naan Bread 💣.Went with a large party so I kinda got to try a lot of the foods! Cannot wait to return! Chef Kirin is very active within the restaurant too!

Still dreaming of my delicious meal. Smells so good in there too. You wont want to leave! Duck pizza...yes pls!

The place is very clean not a doubt, but the food isn't really meant for Indian people. Authentic Indian has much more spice and flavorings. In my opinion Kiran's food is supposed to make non-Indian people enjoy our food. Also I don't think it looks professional to be yelling at your employee in front of your customers.

Kiran has delicious food and spices were to the point, environment was great too. I just loved it and I will go back to try more dishes for sure. Thank you.

Highly recommend their Saturday high tea!

Sar was a great waiter. Ask for him and have a great time!

Best Indian food in Houston. Kiran cares more than any chef I have had the pleasure of experiencing. Attention to detail is incredible. Every inch of the restaurant has been given meticulous attention. The food is exceptional, and every visit is amazing and wonderful. Her staff is so well groomed. You will love it!

We went as part of Restaurant Week just to try something new. My gf loves Indian food and knows the chef. Fantastic Thali ad desserts. Gorgeous decor and attentive waiters.

The food is amazing! And the place very nice.

food was ok but not more that

Great food and good vibe

Excellent customer service, Thanks Jessica.

Great Saturday high tea! Highly recommend.

They have Complimentary Valet! Friendly staff

So good

Great service and food.

Fantastic flavor, authentic, classy and done just right

Best high end Indian restaurant in Houston. One thing to point out is staff is very good but the owner and manager seems discrimination against indian people.

Huge thank you to the staff at Kiran's for making a fun date night! Chef Kiran has created Houston's premier authentic Indian food experience with an upscale interior, knowledgable service staff, and balanced menu. Immediately we were made to feel at home by a friendly bartending staff that was anxious to walk us through the menu. If you get a chance to enjoy Kiran's, make sure to give Chef and her service staff a chance to educate. Two pre-fixe options, and a few sampler plates are a great way to try something new, and something tells me I didn't eat the only four delicious items on the menu. Chef Kiran can be seen strolling through her restaurant keeping an eye on the kitchen's hot line, introducing herself to new customers, and always giving a hug to familiar faces. Don't be afraid to flag her down and compliment the restaurant that she has built from the ground up! Kiran's has the comfortable feel that is unique to chef-owned restaurants, and is difficult to manufacture.

It's my all time favorite. There was social distancing, it was busy. I didn't expect to see so many people. Food is top notch. It's a high end restaurant so I save it for a very special occasion. Beet salad was very flavorful. Got a sizzler with latcha parata. Prawn Buniya was very good. If.anything, the so called biriyani that is served along with the sizzler is not upto mark. That's because I like dum biryani and don't like sweet flavor in biriyani. We ordered gajar halwa and chocolate decadent for desert. Both were excellent..

Amazing service, delicious food, beautiful decor... owner so sweet 💯❤️👌🏾

Ordered Dal makhni and laccha paratha through uber eats. Quality was not at all good. The paratha was so dry it felt like it was made 4/5 hrs ago, not at all crisp. I will post the pic for you to judge. Dal makhni is a rich dish which needs to have that buttery and smoky /earthy taste. This dal makhni though sold at a premium price is no where close to what an Authentic dal makhni should taste..

I came to Kirans tonight to celebrate a graduation. I was disappointed about one of our dishes and complained to the staff. Overall, they handled the situation with so much kindness. Especially our waiter Manuel is who possibly the best server with incredible patience and attention to detail.

Service was Excellent 👍

We went for our anniversary dinner. It far exceed my expectations. Excellent food.

I absolutely love Kirin’s food. I order from them quite often. However, tonight I had a very disappointing experience. Hence the 2 stars only. I ordered through UberEats. Last time I ordered, about a month ago, I included a side of rice, not sure if the dishes included it. I had rice for days. So I wrote a note to the restaurant on the order, that if these dishes did not come with rice, I wanted some and would be happy to pay for it. A bit later, I received a voicemail from the “hostess” stating they could not include the rice until I call and give them a credit card # as they could not charge UberEats. So I called and received someone who had to transfer me to the hostess at which time she put me on hold and I held for quite a while. Knowing my driver was soon to be there, I hung up and called back. The “hostess” picked up and said something like, I was just going to take your call. So I had to go through the story again at which time she told me she needed a credit card # to include the rice. I said ok. She then said let me check and see if the driver is still here. Of course the driver had just left. Really, Kirin’s? A class restaurant would have included at least a cup of rice. A good gesture. Or included the $8 side of rice with trust that someone who places a $70 + order each time, will not fail to call you with payment of 8 dollars. Maybe you have forgotten who supported you during the early COVID outbreak. Makes me sad.....

Excellent food Covid friendly environment, took the family and felt great about the location, service, and atmosphere.

Best indian in town. Well worth the money

Love this place ambience food ,service everything awesome

Great food - super cold - wear a couple layers

I was there with my family, ambience was good however the food was not upto the mark. The prices were really high but food didn't do justice to food.

We enjoyed the Afternoon Tea at Kiran’s very much (January 2020). The food and tea were delightful, as was the atmosphere. I look forward to returning!

Very good Restaurant & Great Service highly recommended!!!

Thank you for a wonderful 40th Birthday Celebration, the food is amazing!

Best Indian food in Houston. Kiran cares more than any chef I have had the pleasure of experiencing. Attention to detail is incredible. Every inch of the restaurant has been given meticulous attention. The food is exceptional, and every visit is amazing and wonderful. Her staff is so well groomed. You will love it!

Best Indian Restaurant. Nice ambience, good food, courteous staffs.

I have not been to many Indian restaurants in Houston but this was the BEST overall experience. Beautiful ambience, great service, and excellent hot bread/pastries. I highly recommend! If you do have any allergies, make sure to mention it to waiter as some of the ingredients are not listed on the menu... in my case I have a crab allergy.

Kiran’s was excellent! The ambiance was romantic and upscale, its perfect for a date night. We ordered the calamari and lobster bisque as an appetizer, butter chicken, and caprese naan bread. It was a ton of food for 2 people and we couldn’t finish (unfortunately so, because everything was truly delicious). Our server was Enrique, he was great! There is easy parking available for validation in the garage next door. Attire is business casual+, no shorts, but there were several men in polos. For those looking a more unique experience, the menu featured three individual tasting menus, all of which looked delicious. Enrique did advise that they take a bit of time for all of the courses, so it’s a good option for those looking to have a more leisurely evening. Overall, Kiran’s was a fantastic experience, we will definitely be back!

If you eat here you will like it. There's nothing more to say.

No Social Distancing! the indoor seating doesn't follow COVID guidelines. the seating arrangement has not changed despite COVID. The management needs to space out the tables far apart. Disappointing that they are callous or just aloof.

Friendly service & delicious food

My wife and I had the Chef's tasting menu with wine pairing on a weekday evening for date night. We sat outside on the nice patio and had enough distance from other tables to feel comfortable. Staff was friendly and prompt, answering questions and ensuring our courses came out with plenty of time for us to enjoy the previous one, talk, and relax. The food was fantastic. We felt that it was both elevated and somehow comfort food, reminding us of the dishes we loved but done in a way that was more modern. Spicing was perfect, and we were extremely full by the time we finished, come hungry! Overall a great enjoyable experience especially during this pandemic. We will definitely be back to order off the menu in the future and would love to bring our parents sometime!

Food was really good. We had a large group, and our waiter (Nigil) i think hid name was did an awesome job taking care of us. Would definitely recommend if your in the mood for Indian food. It is a little pricey, but it is an upscale restaurant.

Clean and Beautiful, I ordered Besan curry ,chapati and biryani. Biryani was good. Indian Besan Curry the Worst, they just fried it like any other vegetable, And the service worst they just served the food but did not gave cutlery, no napkins every time we were just waiting for the water . And that curry 🤢 and still they charged for that worst curry , I didn’t even eat it it was rubbish. They do not have any idea about Indian Besan Curry Stop making it.

Fantastic menu includes traditional Indian fare, but also innovative new items from cocktails to appetizers to entrees and desserts. Chef Kiran is amazing and her venue and staff are exceptional.

Loved it!! First time there and it will be many other times! Amazing food,amazing service..

Very nice authentic indian food. We had veg food, Pani puri surprisingly was good and food was also well made. Less oily. Recommended to have dinner at this place. Nice indian resturant and good service

Beautiful restaurant. Friendly and warm staff. Amazing and delicious 😋 food. A must for special occasions and any day of the week

Yum! Everything we had was so good. I recommend getting the Lamb Rhogan Josh, Prawn Bhuna, and Wild Mushrooms! It is so well seasoned and flavorful... I couldn't stop. The waiter mentioned that they have afternoon tea every Saturday. I will be coming back for some tea after my morning workout.

fabulous food and ambiance, great servicr

Kiran's is one of the most reputed Indian fine dining restaurants in Texas. We've been there couple of times, and have always been satisfied with our visit. This time, however, our experience was sub-optimal. The food and service were great, but we were disappointed at the lack of social distancing measures in place. Being in global pandemic, we rarely dine-in at restaurants. We assumed that a high end restaurant like Kiran's will have sufficient space between groups of customers/tables. The place, however, seemed to be operating at full capacity with all tables occupied and barely any distance between adjacent tables. We will visit again, but only after pandemic situation is better.

Went here with my family for my sister's birthday. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful. The staff is amazing - from the moment you speak to the hostess to when you're seated at your table. Our waitress, Stella was top notch! The food & drinks were beyond delicious 👌🏾. Seriously the best restaurant food I've had in a long time. I will definitely be back!

I choose to make Birthday special over Kirans, but was disappointed with the table size offered to a family of 4, then food quality didn’t justify the price . Service boy carried the mock tail without a tray and didn’t appear special at all. In fact people were sitting too close....special places should make people feel special ....

Very nice indian restaurant. Phenomenal atmosphere and service. The food is an interesting twist from the traditional Hillcroft or nicer indian restaurants. If you are keen on different tastes, try the ground lamb masala dosa.

Food was great. But service was poor. A waiter was super unfriendly and slow. We waited for the cocktails for 20 minutes. Also the waiter brought the wrong beer twice and he was constantly spilling water when he filled the glasses. At the end of the dinner we asked for 5 checks. The waiter didn't like and tried to ask us to get 1 check. If you consider yourself as a fancy place you have to have to be like this in everything.

Excellent despite being pricey, Houston is not a destination city for Indian cuisine, but Kiran's quality stands out amid the mediocrity among us. Elegant setting, and outdoor seating available for these (hopefully) waning days of the Pandemic. A tad noisy outside along Richmond. Free street parking generally available around back. Enjoy, we did!!

Atmosphere was splendid. The waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable.

For my husband's birthday we decided to be adventurous and try Indian cuisine, Kiran"s was the perfect choice! Upon arrival my husband was greeted with happy birthday and we were seated at the bar with the most competent and gregarious bartender and host we have ever encountered. Jacob held our hands and took is on a descriptive journey of the complete me ue, starting with amazing well thought out cocktails. We are usually very plain American eaters, but ventured out, and I so glad we did. The dishes were so flavorful and well blended. The service was phenomenal!

I really loved this place. Ambiance is amazing n staff is super friendly. This is the best place to eat Indian cuisine in Houston. Will always recommend everyone to visit this place whenever they visit Houston.

Great Ambience and service!! Could have been better if they could offer more vegetarian options. Was delighted to celebrate our anniversary there

Everything was so delicious! Amazing food. Amazing menu... Make reservations and cross your fingers that it's not overflowing with people. It's such a good restaurant that at times they can get overwhelmed. The only thing I can say is that it seemed they needed more wait staff. Subsequently, they were out of multiple top shelf/popular whiskies that I was excites to see on the menu, as we're others I'm sure.

Came to celebrate a family birthday and everything was great. The ambience, the food, the service...all fantastic.

Amazing! Kiran's was recommended by a friend that usually comes during the holidays. We happened to come during restaurant week and it was amazing. So glad that my friend was there and more knowledgeable about the food and could point us in the right direction. The pani poori was amazing! Something she said she had never seen on a menu at a restaurant but knew well. We loved that our server referred to it as a shot of food! The goat cheese and beet salad was a great starter to get me warmed up for the main event of the Vegetarian Thali. It was so good! My husband and friend ate all of their Punjabi Thali and raved about the lamb rhogan josh while I was busy inhaling my paneer makhni. It was delicious! I finished with the trio of tropical sorbets, which was perfect for cleansing the palaet after all the flavors, while sneaking bites of their chocolate samosa and Chai ice cream. If you haven't had traditional chia ice cream this will give your taste buds a whirl! This was an amazing experience and a place we will definitely be returning to!

This is such a great restaurant! Our server had great recommendations! I got the oysters, thali and chocolate somosa. The ambience is perfect for any kind of celebrations. The portions are also generous, I took it home for lunch the next day. Can’t wait to be back!! The butter chicken is soo good!!

Awesome experience. Dined here with friends. Amazing food. We were really hoping to meet and thank Chef Kiran in person but out of luck next time. Tried the Vegetarian Thali a complete traditional experience with good food and top it up with the ambience and exceptional service. Keep it up Kiran’s deserves all the praise. Will surely visit next time.

Authentic food fusion with modern ambiance. One of the best Indian Restaurant in USA.

Eugene was our waiter and we could not have asked for a better experience. The restaurant it so self is beautiful, well decorated, and has a very romantic ambiance. They have sofas where a party of two can comfortable sit on the same side, the whole experience is so romantic and inviting. We came here for a birthday celebration. For cocktails, we got the old Wive’s tale— which is basically an Indian take on the old fashioned— it was delicious well executed. For dinner we had the mushroom and feta samosas, lamb keema naan, dal makahani, raita, and the tandoori chicken. The Dal was the best dal we have ever had in a restaurant and all of the food was incredible. The best part of the whole experience was the lovely staff and our exceptional waiter. Eugene took a. Lot of care and time with us, he was funny, patient and knowledgeable. I can’t wait to come back!

Food is excellent, ambience is amazing. Loved the taste of food. We tried Punjabi thali, Shrimp malabar, Lamb Biryani and Chocolate Hazelnut cake. The dessert tasted so so good! Looking forward to try the afternoon tea menu in future! There was live music played which enhanced the ambience even more. Beautiful interior decor. They have free valet parking, we paid parked in the garage though without realizing.

The indian-french fusion is delicious and so unique you won't find anything like it anywhere but here. Sage was our server and he did an amazing job! He helped us choose an array of dishes to share them family style, from the appetizers to our desserts. The chef came out to the dining room to say hi and make sure everything was good. This is one of those places that you'll get cravings for.

Beautiful dining areas. Attentive staff. I prefer the taste of other Indian restaurants I've been to, but we particularly enjoyed the pani poori, mango lassi, and the chocolate mousse dessert. The entrees can easily be shared between a couple people. I think that might help anyone balking at the prices. I did like that the Thali made it easy to try several dishes, though. Valet service is $8, credit card only.
