It's clean, they're friendly and the food was good. I ordered butter chicken, goat karahi, and i had chai as i waited. They were all tasty

My friend and I decided to give this restaurant a try. We stopped by for dinner on a weekday night, so it wasn't too busy. The restaurant is quite spacious, with plenty of tables and seating. It's also connected to the grocery store next door. I ordered the chicken tikka masala with garlic naan and a mango lassi. The chicken tikka masala was flavorful and well-seasoned, and the chicken itself was tender and moist. The garlic naan was fluffy and chewy. The mango lassi was deliciously smooth and sweet. Great service! The food arrived in under 15 minutes. Our server was cheerful and attentive and checked in on us frequently. Overall, I had a positive dining experience here. Definitely give Kohinoor a chance if you're in the area! read more

Do not let the no glitz or glamour fool you, the food here is fantastic! The waiting time was short, service was professional/courteous and the food arrived hot & spicy as requested. Lamb chops were juicy; aloo samosa's were spicy & served with tasty dipping sauces; and the goat korma was tender and great with the garlic naan. Definitely recommend this place & will surely return. read more

it's good restaurant but very expensive so far they only Chicken Biryani is only buy one get one free which is rice so what about other dishes right Garlic naan 3.75 cents it's means making money right what about customers please work on it read more

We hosted a family lunch at this restaurant and from the appetizers to dessert, everything was fantastic. I didn't realize until after that they are under new management and the new management really took the restaurant to next level. The food is good, and so are the vibes. It's next door to a grocery store so all packed in one. Eat and shop for home. read more

10/10!! The owner/chef was so sweet and took great care of us. I highly recommend stopping by and taking any and all of his recommendations. read more

Kohinoor Indo Pak Restaurant - Samosas - Pakistani Near Me - Spring, Texas

Service was bad waited at the register for 10 mins waiting for the guy behind the register to take my order, he finally turn around and say "why didn't you call me" but for every other customer who walked in he would turn around a greet. Food was horrible I got beef samosa, butter chicken, plain rice, and naan. Samosa where two salty my dad couldn't even eat one whole samosa (there are only 2) I ate mine I thought it was alright, butter chicken was old, had no flavor, and the chicken was rubbery. Plain rice was under cooked slightly, and naan was just naan. If I'm being honest if I could give this place a 0/5 I would but unfortunately you can't. read more

I went here with a group of ten, most of whom were new to Indian food. The waiters were helpful in finding something each person would enjoy. Service was fast in spite of the large group. Portions were generous and most had leftovers to take home. The manager surprised us with a complimentary dessert at the end of the meal. I am sure many of us will be returning to sample more of the menu. Thanks for a lovely evening! read more

A hidden gem for sure. Food was so fresh and delicious. The man taking our order offered recommendations and treated us like family. Also for dessert the rice pudding and mango lassi were incredible! read more

We weren't sure what to get so we let our waiter pick 3 entrees! Everything he suggested was AMAZING. The entrees, the rice, the naan... all were so fresh and full of flavor. Idk a lot about Indian food but I can be pretty picky! He also served us rice pudding and lassi. We have officially found our dinner spot!! read more

Food was delicious! Staff was friendly and gave great recommendations. Service was quick, attentive, and polite. It was a great dining experience and will be back to try more! read more

Last night was my 2nd and perhaps last visit. The first one was during Sunday brunch 6-7 months ago and it was nothing but a disappointment. The 2nd visit was 10/06 "Dinner Buffet" for $14.95. I was dragged in by my other half and it seems like nothing has changed since my first visit. The place was packed but food trays were empty. The food did not taste good and there was no backup to refill any empty dishes. It was a chaos! On top there was no dessert and they also ran out of tea. We were forced to buy water bottles since there was no water pitcher, no utensils and they ran out of styrofoam plates as well. I am not sure how this place will keep their doors open and for how long? The two stars for the girls who were helping customers with a big smile. read more

Now under New and creative ownership! Chef Zaheer had a long resume of impressive restaurant and hotel catering positions in many countries in the past. He is ultra friendly. The first few times they didn't even charge me for tea to go. I have seen them sitting at a table, dining with their staff together. That's the mark of a good owner. Food: They've decided to focus the menu on a few unique high quality items and perfect them and so far that looks to be a very good strategy. I tried the green chutney chicken and it was very tender. The chicken zinger burger also hit the spot. Tea/Chai: I absolutely love the tea here because it's karak and flavorful. I frequently stop by to get some on my way home. It is bold and really goes well with anything. Buffets: They have a Wednesday night nihari buffet that looks out of this world with unlimited bone marrow versus what you'll pay 20 bucks for at a restaurant. They have a Sunday buffet with breakfast that will knock you out and make you sleep the rest of the day because there are so many items. I've yet to try out more as as they get situated. Heard the biryani and bihari are good. They even are offering a daily lunch tiffin delivery for the same price as fast food, but in this case you'll get a home cooked meal. Very innovative and nice folks. Give them a try. They will come by and talk to you and are a blast to chat with. read more

The best Indi Pak food I had for a while! It was so fresh and yummy. I highly recommend Malai Botti. You also have to try the chicken tikka masala. The restaurant is very clean and the staff is friendly. read more

Kohinoor Indo Pak Restaurant - Pakistani Near Me - Spring, Texas

It was good, but ridiculously expensive. I have never eaten at a restaurant that did not give free refills on iced tea. Everything was a la carte, my bill at lunch time was $30. That included $6 for two iced teas. Yes the food was good, unfortunately it was not the kind of Indian food I was hoping for, but I did find something I liked. I cannot recommend this place because of their prices. It definitely was not worth $30, which did not include the tip. read more

Have gone here many times. The chef is unquestionably talented. The food is usually very good. However, the husband-wife owners host a dizzying range of events from Nihari Night to High Tea and EVERYTHING in between. I think this is where they struggle. In an attempt to draw in new customers and keep things interesting, they try to do too much with the constant new events and buffets. The result either falls flat or is chaotic. In my opinion, not that they asked me: reduce and simplify your menu, and stop all/most of the hungama events. Choose a dozen or so dishes for your menu and do them well, every single time. Customers want consistently excellent food, not constant variety. Most of my friends have tried the restaurant and unfortunately have very strong opinions about it, mostly against! I disagree with them. Chef Zaheer is skilled and knows how to cook. They just need to stop all the crazy events, fine-tune their best dishes and keep serving those. What is Kohinoor known for? What are their signature dishes? No one knows. Get the basics perfect every time (karhai, biryani, tikka etc.) and then you'll have a loyal customer base that will return again and again. Wishing you best of luck! read more

I was driving to an account before lunch and saw Kohinoor in the same parking lot. I ordered the chicken Byriani to go. Nice dining room and they certainly offer table service for dine in. The server behind the counter warned me it is a "bit spicy" since I'm a gringo. It was spicy and delicious and very authentic using bone-in chicken. I personally prefer boneless so maybe a bit too authentic for my taste. Very well prepared and very generous portions. A good choice and scratched my itch for South Asian quisine. read more

I'm impressed with the modern decor and cleanliness of this restaurant. Most of all the place don't make your clothes and hair smell like spices. I had the chicken tikka that's delicious. I like the charred part and it was served on a sizzling plate with vegetables. Goat korma was tender and not too oily. I didn't try the eggplant but my friends said it was still hard. read more

Looks like management has changed? Ordered Palak Paneer, Chicken Handi, Chapatis she Chai. Service provided by Devi was excellent. Food arrived promptly and was tasty, particularly the pPalak Paneer. Chicken in the Handi was very tender. Ordered Palak Paneer, Mixed Dal and Baingan Curry with 2 orders of Jeera Rice to go. Upon reaching home, found Palak Paneer missing. Remaining dishes were fine - Dal was very tasty, Baingan lacked flavor but was well-cooked. Jeera Rice had curry leaves in it, unusually; tasted less of Jeera and more of Curry Leaves, but flavorful nonetheless. Pricing and quantity were reasonable. Going back there again soon! read more

Ordered the butter chicken with a garlic naan and it was just not good, it was oily and pretty bland, like a water seasoning packet. And the chicken had lots of dry spots, not cooked evenly. read more

Kohinoor Indo Pak Restaurant - Chicken Tikka Masala (Butter Chicken) - Pakistani Near Me - Spring, Texas

The food was amazing! We needed to add a bit of salt but that's all. The dessert was top notch, the gulab jamun.

Have been there a few times, and while the first visit was terrific, subsequent ones have not been as good. Fewer menu items, pretty relaxed service, food good but not outstanding either. May try agsin but they are off of our favorites list. read more

Came here yesterday with my parents&son because I saw the reviews were good. We got paratha, chicken korma, garlic naan and my dad got chicken boti wrap with fries and my son got nuggets with fries. The food was tasty and I recommend their parathas with any type of curry. we will be coming here again to try different things. my dad and son liked the food. be warned....the service is not like a regular restaurant. There's one guy taking orders and it seems like they are short staffed. Many of these small owned business are not going to pay for a standard waitstaff so be prepared to wait and don't get mad. read more

Pretty and modern interior with great service and food! Ordered vegetable tikka masala which they customized for me, chicken 65, garlic naan and chicken tikka masala. Everything was outstanding. The waiter brought us a traditional Ramadan drink (Rooh afza) which was a nice surprise to try! Everything was spiced to perfection. We eat Indian food often and can be picky about where we eat. This restaurant exceeded our expectations and we will be back! read more

My husband and I drive by this restaurant saying each time that we should go eat there. Well, we did and WOW. The service was incredible, thank you Bushra, and the food was so delicious, thank you Imtiaz! It looked to us that this restaurant was doing quite a bit of take out/delivery business. I would recommend going in at least once to experience the atmosphere and the people. We will definitely be going back. read more

BEST INDIAN FOOD IN HOUSTON!!! I first discovered Indian food 12 years ago when I was in London and I've been on the hunt for some good cuisine for a long time. You know a cuisine is authentic when there are a ton of people of that culture at the restaurant. I LOVE the food here and the staff are super nice. There was a new guy there today that had excellent customer service and great conversation. The only complaint I have is the super bright lights (not the chandeliers) don't create a good atmosphere. read more

Me and my family have been here 10+ times. It is phenomenal every time!! They have a new chef who has a more Pakistani flare to his flavors and it's just sooooo yummy! Come here to experience FLAVOR you haven't before if you're unfamiliar with Pakistani or Indian dishes. I very much recommend the Okra Bindi, Dal, if they will make Saag Paneer my favorite - order it! And the naan is lovely. I don't eat meat but my family said the chicken biryani is so good! They do a veg biryani I'll be order next time! Don't skip this gem! Scoop up your plate with naan :) read more

Kohinoor Indo Pak Restaurant - Garlic naan, okra bindi, dal, saag paneer - Pakistani Near Me - Spring, Texas

Food was very good. Chicken biryani served in a clay pot was well prepared. The appetizer chicken chunks sautéed in a spicy tamarind sauce was quite spicy but very tasty. Might be too spicy for non-Asians. Service was left a bit to be desired. Not offered refills on water and appetizer came out at almost same time as the main. Pleasant casual atmosphere and very clean space. read more

First impression was an extremely clean, calming interior with high ceilings. We were able to choose our seats and were attended to immediately. We knew from a neighborhood Facebook post that we wanted to try several chicken dishes so we ordered the Grilled Chicken Platter and I ordered beef kabobs. I'm a hot spice wussy. That said, their grilled, boneless chicken Tikka leg meat was perfect. Tender, flavorful, and a little kick. I had 2-3 meat options at my wussy level and my husband was in freaking heaven with everything else plus what I liked. Zero regrets. Went this past Sunday with my hubby and went back today and ordered the same platter with a neighborhood friend. She loved it too and was hoarding the leftovers like prized possessions. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive during both visits. Honestly, this skyrocketed to one of my top 5 favorite local restaurants already. Thank you to the owners because wowza, y'all! read more

How have we not tried this place yet! I'm so glad we tried it today and it was amazing. The food and service was phenomenal! The place was decorated very modern and nice.

Definitely will be back for more read more
