My first time here, my wife's second.
Really nice flavorful Persian food with a twist. I could have easily just snacked on appetizers but that woudl have been a mistake as the SeaBass (that we split was sublime). The cocktail you see, but i also had a nice glass of Lebanese red wine wh
Oh my gosh! I what an amazing experience .
.. amazing ambiance and decor, service was impeccable, cocktails sublime, food off the hook. We asked our server to recommend four small plates to share between the two of us...she nailed it! Exquisite! Definitely recommend the grilled lamb ribs ..

Came here for a business dinner and was super excited for Persian food. This place has a great ambience and we were sat immediately. We started off ordering appetizers and got the chicken wings, hummus + pita, and shrimp. I could've easily made

Wow! I came with a couple of friends on a Monday and was pleasantly surprised. As soon as we walked in, I was shocked at how busy it was for a Monday night. The restaurant is so beautiful and definitely feels upscale. We were sat promptly and our

They had great grilled seafood. Loved the roasted cauliflower, the hummus, the sea bass and salmon. Highly recommend!

Such a lovely lunch spot, we have been here a few times for dinner and we keep coming back for more -- the ambiance is phenomenal inside with the beautiful artwork and the staff is incredibly friendly. Every dish we tried was memorable. The falafel h

The restaurant atmosphere was clean and stunning, a great place to get together with family or friends. Staff and service was friendly, but I was quite blown away by the food! First off, they start off with pita and a plate of herbs, radishes, walnut

The food was just OK not worth the high price tag imo We had the beef koubeideh, just meh, not anything special, a little on the dry side ,which they dumped copious amounts of butter to hide dryness. TheHummus had too much tahini in it, and the ma

If you're looking for a cute date night spot, birthday celebration, or just good food this is the place. We ordered a wide variety of appetizers and hands down my favorite were the marinated olives. I could've eaten that as a meal in itse

This place is mind blowing ! Delicious ! and one of best meals esp persian we had ! first of all , i love the interior and mediterranean vibes, earthy vibes. Then the service was excellent ; super kind waiter! Then finally the meal - Lamb kabob 11/10
Had a great work lunch experience.
The staff couldn't have been warmer or more welcoming, and they did such a great job explaining all the little extras. The vibe is modern and fresh--loved the light fixtures, the open, spacious feel, and the stylish but relaxed energy. The food

The service experience at Rumi's is unmatched! Our waiter, Arif, was so nice and attentive. He explained the menu well and described items we had questions about well too. I will definitely request him again when I return. The food was so good,
This restaurant has been my favorite Persian restaurant.
The atmosphere is fun and lovely and is very beautifully designed. However recently their quality of food and service has gone down a bit. Although the staff is always very pleasant and nice the service has been very lengthy and it takes a long time

Rumi's Kitchen is a very strong 5/5 stars! For parking, you can either valet or there's tons of free parking space in the Post Oak Plaza (which is like a 60 second walk to the restaurant). Right when you walk in, you'll notice the bea

Nothing to add to all the glowing reviews on here other than everyone is right. Worth the hype. Sea bass is amazing. All apps tried were excellent--esp the dolmeh--done right. LA vibes on a Friday night w lines out the door. Otherwise have heard it&
The is Persian food at it's finest.
I have had the chicken barg, chicken kabob, beef Koobideh and hummis. Everything was fantastic. The house bread and appetizer plate are also great. The wait staff and management are very attentive and helpful. The ambiance is also nice. Hig
Rumis will definitely be seeing me again! I went for brunch
Rumis will definitely be seeing me again! I went for brunch with a friend after church, and it exceeded all of my expectations. First off, the complimentary valet immediately won me over--Houston parking is a nightmare, so this was a huge plus. For

Some friends treated us to dinners night and we weren't disappointed! This small shopping center on the east side of post oak blvd in the galleria area is super swanky. Very cool and unique building. It feels like money the second you pull up.
The pros: The noon-o-panir was fantastic, the walnuts
The pros: The noon-o-panir was fantastic, the walnuts tasted like you got them off the side of the road on Darband That corn, just fantastic, I ate most of it and shared very little with my sister, so what if it was her birthday dinner... The servic
If you like style over substance this is the place for you.
Food was mediocre at best. Not to mention they neglected to tell us that parties of 10 must spend A MINIMUM $100 PER PERSON. The lamb genuinely tasted like a farm, like every bite took me to the stables of a barn. Some of the gamiest lamb I've h
Noisy, boisterous place with good food
We shared a very good dinner with friends from out of town. While it is in the middle of Post Oak Blvd., we had a hard time finding it: there are few signs and the ones that exist are hidden by trees. Eventually we stumbled on the right valet service
Amazing Dinner at Rumi Bar
We sat at the bar at Rumi and the lead bartender, Jeremy was amazing. Although he was busy, he took the time to find a chair for us and ensured our drinks were served quickly. Our dining experience was amazing because of him. He took the time to ask
Very enjoyable dinner
Very interesting menu, great quality food and excellent service! A very enjoyable dinner all round. Recommend making a reservation though as it was very busy.
similar food to atlanta, less crisp service
we have been to Rumis many times in Atlanta so was curious to try it out in Houston. It took a while to get a reservation but we finally got one. the menu here was similar to the menu in Atlanta with a couple of more options. the quality of the fo
Inexperienced and show off owner.
Fifth time going to Rumi's and they started really well but service has gone down massively. Servers have good intentions but very inexperienced and the wait time to simply say hello is an average of 10 minutes. Food not bad but if service is so
Persian not so Persian
Nice restaurant decor, great location on post oak. Nice design, I really like the small patio. Feels very cozy. Ambiance is nice , music was too low and barely can hear, and genre doesn't fit the restaurant. I was not impressed with the food
No hot sauce!!!!!
Overall good experience. 0ne complaint. We asked the waiter for any hot sauce and he told us they did not have any hot sauce per say( which surprised us as how can any restaurant not have any kind of hot sauce) and the best he can offer us was Green
Great Find
This is a new find us. . A wonderful place with great staff and nice food. Wonderful drink and cocktail choices. Great location and easy valet parking.
Outstanding Restaurant
Outstanding food and service. Beautiful restaurant. You can't go wrong here -- everything we had was delicious and made to perfection.
Think this place has just moved to the top of the list
The ambience of this restaurant is fantastic, it would be hard to improve on the service, and the standard of the food is just a different level. We had a lamb dish and a fish dish, we also had cauliflower. Wow - if we used a scale of 0-1000 - ever

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Rumi's Kitchen Houston at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Rumi's Kitchen Houston page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Rumi's Kitchen Houston to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Rumi's Kitchen Houston!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
