We were greeted immediately when we entered the door. Waiter was polite and attentive throughout the entire experience and presented himself as if we were truly at a restaurant in France.

Chef Kristofer Jakob went overboard for our event! He prepared an amazing menu for Yes Prep East End Senior Dinner Banquet. The staff took care of all the details and provided our party of 110 with a culinary experience out this world. The dessert was double amazing and the shrimp balls appetizers were a hit among our picky eaters, which tells you how delicious they were. Every spoon was full of exploiting flavors catered to the palate of teens ( we adults enjoyed it too) This place is a hidden gem! A wonderful venue for intimate events like the one we had last weekend. It was not my first time at the restaurant, however it was my first catered event, and I must say that every dime spent was 100% worthy. Triple kudos to the Chef, the kitchen staff and everyone involved in the planning and cooking. It was an unforgettable experience for our 2015 Graduating Class.

This was our first visit to Kris. Frankly it was not easy to find, but the GPS worked wonders. We arrive at our appointed reservation time, but a table was not ready. This is not uncommon in restaurants, of course. Here, we were guided to the bar to wait until a table was ready. Kris, himself, offered us wine or champagne while we waited — on the house. Once at our table we enjoyed prompt service for wine while we viewed the menu. Note that the menu is not extensive but changes regularly. The restaurant is part of, and located in, the Culinary Institute of Houston and the chefs were graduates of the school and did a fantastic job with the culinary experience really, really enjoyed with the food well presented. One problem is that two of our company ordered mussels and while in one order the mussels were open and ready to eat, on the other order the mussels were closed. Without any question the one order was removed and was replaced. Due to the wait, three of us had virtually finished, so when the replacement order of mussels arrived (and I must say that they were in a most delicious sauce) Kris brought over a tray of cheese so that those of us would have something to eat and the person with the mussels would not have to eat alone. NOW, THAT IS CLASS!!! I must add that the dinner was enjoyed thoroughly and will be the first of many trips to Kris’.

I came here for a large dinner with about 18 people and a few kids. The food was incredible and the pricing very reasonable. They did a great job of explaining what we were getting, suggesting dishes for our table and recommending wine pairings. They were also very accommodating to the kids in our group. They made them chicken nuggets and fries for kiddo appetites, even though there was no kid’s menu. The timing of the food and service was a little slow, but it’s also to be expected with a large group and a staff/kitchen that is in training. Overall, it was a great experience and our party was really impressed with the food. Will definitely be back.

We made reservations for this restaurant for our anniversary. Trying to get to this place was an adventure. However, when we got inside, we were amazed by the service and the attention to detail by the waiters. The food was exquisite. Definitely visiting Kris again. Don’t let the location fool you this is an amazing restaurant and in my book is the best in Houston for special occasion.

Amazing. From beginning to end. This is truly one of the best places in Houston. The warmth from the staff, the exquisite menu, the modern decor, – everything comes together to create a fabulous evening for romance, a large family dinner, or a wine stop for friends. Reasonable prices (for a great wine selection and French cuisine) are matched with a menu that changes with the season.

I was only made aware of Kris after being invited here with a group of family and friends. the concept itself makes for a conversation starter. it is very interesting and inspiring being in the middle of a culinary school, watching the students work. the menu matched the season well and had a nice breadth of flavors to match any palette. they were very accommodating when I brought up my food allergies. The food was good, from the starters to dessert. I am giving it an ok simply because the service was quite slow and our dinner took entirely too long for the small amount of tables dining. I would love to go back and hopefully that part was a fluke.

Amazing! My new favorite restaurant! The foods was so gourmet and perfect, the wine pairing was phenomenal, and the service was out of this world! I can’t say enough about this place. Go casual or get dressed to the nines, it’s all good. Definitely a must try.
