   Took the family to Rumi’s and everyone loved it. The food was great from the small dishes to the large plates and the ice cream sandwich to finish things off. Stephanie was our server and she was beyond excellent! Fun, patient and every dish she recommended was outstanding. Her attentiveness made it feel like we were her only table. My favorite dishes include the labneh, lamb ribs and all the skewers. I honestly don’t think you can go wrong w any of the skewers. Also make sure to try all the different rice options!

   The food and the vibe were amazing, the service was just fine. We had to call servers to show up at the table.

   This was our first time and it was amazing! Our waiter, Brandon, was great! Knowledgeable and great personality. Perfect amount of touch! Ambience is really great. Even with all that it gets better. The food was outstanding. We had a broad mix of items and everything was just right and tasted amazing!

   Server was outstanding. Very helpful with explanations and recommendations for first time diners. Some prices seemed high for amount of protein - $38 for shrimp kebab with 5 medium sized shrimp. Quality of food was good. Noise level not bad - could carry on conversation with no issues. Valet parking was fine - no excessive wait.

   Lovely ambience to dine in with fresh foods which define the experience are only in competition with the genuine air of hospitality in the attentive service. Trust the staff to guide your selections if unfamiliar with the Persian offerings. And while I’m not a man of favorites… two appetizers are a must. Grilled Shrimp: garlic, black pepper, saffron, jalapeno feta cream sauce. Extraordinary. Kibbeh Nayyeh (Lamb Tartare). Unknown to my experience prior to Rumi’s. Stunning dish enjoyed with raw onion and juice of lime… Wauw.

    This was our first time to eat at Rumi's and it did not disappoint! The food was amazing - from the shrimp and hummus appetizers to the entrees- sea bass, shrimp kabob, hanger steak and more. Everything was cooked to perfection! Thomas our waiter was wonderful and he and his ack up (can not remember his name) were very attentive. Gunnar the sommelier was wonderful with his wine suggestions. Cannot wait to go back on a future visit to Houston. Wish Rumi's would open a restaurant in Dallas!
