A Saturday night dinner date at Riel, and let me tell you, this place is a foodie paradise! Every dish was unique and tasted phenomenal. Even the cocktails were wonderful. We got the pirogies and mushroom empanadas to start, which were both fantastic. Then for the entrees my husband had the kimchi c
One of my favorite new(er) restaurants in Houston! As a frequent traveler to Houston, Texas, I was pleasantly surprised by Riel. The restaurant is outstanding (food, service, atmosphere - all A+). As a party of 6, we ate family style and tried almost everything on the menu.
Everything we ate was
Good restaurant. The service is better than the food. We got the caviar tots, pierogis, mushroom empanadas, butter burgers, and kimchi carbonara.

I really enjoyed my dining experience here. The restaurant itself was very modern and clean. Staff were friendly and very attentive.

Delicious food. Inventive creations like an Asian twist on carbonara and umami rich pirogies. Our favorite was the shrimp cocktail which came paired with something like a gazpacho. Despite a long work day our server was attentive and very kind.
We love Riel, the experience is always fantastic! Drinks are unique and quite tasty, Chef Ryan's food is always delicious, with some really fun and creative flavor combinations, and the service is always top notch. One of our favorite spots in Houston.
Food was ok. Not wow but ok. Place was busy and very noisy. Open kitchen concept so if you don’t want to smell oily after eating dinner, avoid this place.Service was excellent.
I went to so many restaurants but this one was different. Any bite was like i was in heaven. I loved everything. I can’t find words to describe how good it was.
I would never forget the taste of deserts.
Make sure to try Kimchi Carbonara!
Put this restaurant on your list of frequently visited because you'll do yourself a disservice if you don't try everything on the menu.
