I love Rumi's! Best Persian in the U.S.! Even better than Los Angeles/Beverly Hills/ West LA!

3.75 rounded up to 4Really good service and ambiance!The standout dishes were the eggplant appetizers and the chilean sea bass! Lamb rack appetizer was really yummy i just wish it had a little more meat on the bone. Lamb kabob and Chicken Barg was fine, a little dry for my taste.

I really enjoyed Rumi's Kitchen, the atmosphere was lively, yet reservations were not necessary. Our server Christine was fantastic. She had drink and food recommendations we got the salmon, chicken barg, and an appetizer of potatoes. Literally everything was delicious. The meats were grilled and the seasonings enhanced by the grill, the rice was fluffy and the grilled vegetables were a great addition.It was a great birthday dinner for my mom.

Brandon our server was fantastic. Super friendly and very patient. We had a fun banter, that always adds to a good experience. These portions are big. We ordered 3 apps between us and were way too full but still ordered an entree to share. So full, seriously. Leftovers galore Everything runs like a well oiled machine. Very busy here but we had a reservation, easy peasy. I like the noise level it's not too loud. Beautiful inside. I was doubtful of an elevated Persian chain and assumed it'd be too focused on aesthetics but the food was really good. There's always room for dessert and he recommended the chocolate budino but highly advised against mixing the olive oil in. Thank GOD! The mousse was so creamy but the olive oil just overpowers it. They offer complimentary valet (just tips). Takes Apple Pay or cards :)Will definitely be returning

Food here is SPECTACULAR! Service is great and the drinks don't disappoint. Their version of Baba ganoush (Mirza Ghazemi) is my ultimate favorite appetizer. I could eat that as my entree. Lamb chicken and stake kebabs are equally good but the Lamb Ribs are the MVP. Our favorite rice is Adas Polo (the one with lentils and cranberries) but the fried potato rice is also a favorite. We have never been able to try deserts here bc portions are generous and we end with no room left! Food quality and service have been consistent the Two times we have dinned there.

After a conference in the area, I stopped by Rumis Kitchen for dinner on a Thursday. Located in The Galleria area, there's valet or you can park for free in the complimentary lot. When I arrived, the restaurant was full and buzzing. Luckily, I was able to snatch a spot at the bar. After looking over the menu, I went with a Persian passion fruit soda and they start you off with some complimentary goodies including pita bread, cheese, and veggies. I went with the chicken baarg which comes with rice. While the menu generally is pretty expensive, I was impressed with the portion size. It's enough for two meals! And talk about delicious. The chicken was juicy and well marinated. Not dry at all like you see with some chicken. The rice was plentiful and you also had a large roasted tomato to go along with it. It's the best Persian food I've had in Houston. Service was friendly and I hopped on their WiFi and did some work during my meal. The ambiance is elegant and makes for a good date night. I would definitely return!

We had a wonderful dinner at Rumi's. The ambience is very nice and decor is beautiful. Our server was great. We were with someone who is gluten and dairy free and they were extremely accommodating, any dish can be modified. The food was delicious. We had the lamb hummus and grilled shrimp for apps. For dinner the wagyu, chilean seabass, and chicken barg were excellent. Just one disappointing dish- the shish kabob (filet mignon) was not very good. Thankfully we were eating family style so the other dishes made up for it, but this is one piece of feedback I would give in hopes they improve this dish. The dinner entrees come with plenty of rice. Overall a great night and would recommend this restaurant to others.

5/5 quality food and ambiance. I'm no expert in Persian cuisine but I could tell that the flavors were thoughtfully blended and not too strong. Stand out foods include Lamb Merguez Hummus, Mirza Ghasemi Eggplant, and the Chilean Sea Bass which comes with Basmati Rice. Really can't go wrong with any dish here. Parking is a bit confusing - it's not obvious from Post Oak that there is valet but you can see it once you drive past the restaurant area. We didn't know about this and ended up parking in the Hilton garage behind the main building. Someone told me there is also a free lot in the back somewhere (?) but we were not able to find it. The interior is gorgeous! Though space could have been more accommodating. We made a reservation for 6 and they crammed us in a space meant for 4 people - while I appreciate the server continuously refilling our cups and getting each dish ware/silverware out of our way, I felt very crammed throughout the entire experience as he was constantly requiring us to move out of the way. There is a $5 split fee which we were never notified of - stated in online menu but not stated on the menus provided to us. Overall a nice experience but transparency and seating accommodations and could have been better.

Went on a Thursday night, it was very packed and unfortunately, we did have to wait a little bit for tables to open up even though we had a reservation. Other than the wait, the service was to par. The food was very tasteful as many of their dishes had a lot of saffron in it. It was a very unique Persian experience as I am Persian. I can taste all the flavors from the mother land. Very romantic and amorous restaurant on PostoakComplementary valet, but there was a long line. Enjoy!

Came here on a Friday evening with no reservation. We only waited about 10 mins for a table.The service wasn't the best- the server forgot our appetizer and when our food came out we had him cancel it.Food was good, and I would come back here again.The ambiance was cute and décor was beautiful
