Last night my son and I walked in for dinner after an evening at Levy Park (which is located directly behind the restaurant, for those unfamiliar w the area), this was our 1st visit to Kiran's and I felt terribly underdressed as we were in Astros T's & shorts and quickly noticed this isn't your average kid-friendly restaurant. Beautiful atmosphere and fine-dining, but nonetheless we were politely greeted, seated, and then served by an outstanding and knowledgeable waiter. He was so attentive and helped us in selecting our meals.. so many tasty choices on the menu. This was the best Indian food I've eaten, amazing food and flavors, everything was so delicious! We had biryani, chicken tikka masala served w saffron basmati rice pulao & veggies, chicken kebabs, naan, and the mint lemonade (which was refreshingly amazing)! Will definitely be returning and look forward to trying their afternoon tea offered on Saturdays.
Great food, great atmosphere and a welcoming staff. Thoroughly recommend trying some of the Indian Street food options as an appetizer & the naan breads are a treat. A favourite haunt whilst visiting Houston.
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.
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.
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.

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!
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!
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!!!!!
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.
Indian fine dining restaurant. Popular among local especial after work. Require to follow dress code.
Tried the chai latte and it was refreshing.
Other food are actually quite typical tonither Indian restaurant.
The food is tasty and does not feel unhealthy because of less vegetable oil. Quantity is more than what you would expect. I have never raten a softer Tandoori Roti and Naan. I ordered Saag Paneer that was delicious. Don’t miss Gajar Halwa in desert.
Parking: it’s in the building that is paid parking. There are some spots outside but those are usually occupied.
