Where to find the best Persian kebabs in Houston? Easy. This is my go-to.

Today I’m at Reza Persian Grill, hands down my favorite spot in the city when a serious kebab craving hits. I come here specifically for the beef koobideh—that perfectly seasoned ground beef kebab that never misses—but honestly, everything on the menu is solid. The chicken thigh kebab is another standout and always juicy.

You’re greeted with complimentary flatbread and salad, which is honestly a meal on its own, but don’t skip the starters. I love the hummus, Persian salad, and especially the kashke bademjan (hot eggplant dip). If you want to sample a little of everything, go for the combo plates or family platters, but I usually stick with beef koobideh solo or paired with another kebab.

Pro move: upgrade to the cranberry rice—sweet, tangy, it just makes everything taste better. Portions are generous and I always have leftovers. For drinks try the fresh mint tea, and for dessert don’t sleep on the house made saffron ice cream or baklava.

They’re open late, recently renovated, and it’s always packed, especially on weekends, so know before you go. Takeout is great too! Oh and of course it’s Halal.
