Great ambience and music. The servers were friendly and answered questions about drinks and food. We enjoyed a nice appetizer (deviled eggs). Drinks were ok, I cant remember the name of what I got but it was decent. I had a filet that I asked for medium well, which was more like well done but it taste good, Mac and cheese was great, I also ordered some of their corn bread, that was pretty amazing. I dont like the fact that they add the gratuity. I believe this should be up to the discretion of the guest. Overall good experience.

10/10 am recommending! We came for brunch, the music was great, food was all around amazing, the banana foster waffles, seafood omelette with white cheddar grits and greens were phenomenal!! And we got a bread pudding and banana foster NY cheesecake to go and that slapped too! Our server Cindy was such a sweet and very attentive server! She made my cousin’s birthday so special and we had such a fun time. We will be back, and I would love to have Cindy as my server again!! Top tier service and food!

I’ve heard of KISS many years ago but this was my first time visiting. My friend reserved the “speakeasy” private room and it did NOT disappoint!!!

First shoutout goes to our A-MAZING waitress Mikaylah!! She did not miss a beat! Friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and all the things! Thank you Mikaylah for giving us the VIP treatment! Will was another waiter who also stepped in to assist us, his energy is so contagious! Thank you! All the staff were so helpful and service was exceptional!

Next shoutout goes to whoever thought of this “speakeasy” idea and the spectacular decor. The details that went into it were definitely well thought out and strategically designed.

KISS THE CHEF!!!…I don’t know who was in the kitchen but EVERYTHING I tasted was magnificent. Fall off the bone oxtails, creamy with a slight crunch mac n cheese, mama’s Saturday grits, and “grandma put her foot in it” greens…. Lol! …..I am not over exaggerating. Everything was 10/10!

Our food was delicious (grits and oxtails and I tried the shrimp and catfish)! The vibe was nice. Our waiter was great, Jordan, and Waiter Will provided all the entertainment and we thoroughly enjoyed it! The dj was on point and the guitarist just wow! Prices are a lil’ pricey but our whole table of 7 had the best time!!

Thank you Kiss for allowing us to host our friend’s going away dinner this past weekend!
First, making the reservation for a large party was easy! Mr James called to schedule and answered all my questions.
Day of event the staff was very friendly and had everything set and ready for all guests to be seated on time. Our waiter, Jordan was such a great waiter. He was patient and kind.
Best part was the food which was great. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered.
Sometimes having big dinners in Houston can be scary (iykyk) so I mean it when I say thank you all for a great experience

ALIEF FOODIE REVIEW

Let me go ahead and save somebody some money and some time.

Pulled up to this spot for **Happy Hour** thinking we were about to vibe. We got there at **5:15 PM on a Sunday**… simple right? Wrong.

Nobody greeted us.
Nobody checked on us.
Nobody acknowledged we were even alive.

We finally got a host at **5:27 PM**. Cool… whatever. Stuff happens.

But then the waiter didn’t even come take our drink order until **5:45 PM**. By this point Happy Hour is basically half gone and we’re just sitting there looking crazy.

And here’s the kicker…
**They didn’t even charge the Happy Hour price.**

Now let me say this: **I refuse to complain inside an establishment.** I’m not about to argue with staff or make a scene. But what I WILL do is tell the people what it is.

So here we go.

For **2 people the bill was $176.**

Let’s talk about the food.

**Wings (Appetizer)**
Flavor was actually good, I’m not gonna lie. But they were **not popping hot**, which tells me they were sitting in the back for a minute before they hit the table. If wings come out lukewarm, you already know what time it is.

**Country Fried Chicken (Entree)**
Listen… when they brought it out I almost laughed. They gave me a **whole bucket situation** — breast, leg, thigh, and wing. Four pieces like somebody’s grandma packed my plate for Sunday dinner.

But the chicken itself?
Kinda **wack**. Too flaky, almost like the breading and chicken weren’t even on the same team.

Now I will say the **sugar-based hot sauce saved it a little**. That sauce gave it some life.

**Mashed Potatoes**
Solid. No complaints there.

**Cornbread**
Oh wait… never mind.
They conveniently **ran out of cornbread.** Big bummer.

They replaced it with **asparagus**, which was actually good… but let’s be real. **Asparagus and fried chicken ain’t the combo anybody came here for.**

**Greens**
Now THESE were good. Straight up. No complaints at all.

**Drinks**
I’m not gonna front… the drinks were good.
But **overpriced for sure**, especially when you show up for Happy Hour and don’t even get Happy Hour pricing.

Now I will say this…

If you’re going **for the club scene**, then yeah — it’s a vibe. Music, people, energy… I can see that part.

But if we’re talking about the **restaurant side**, they might need to go ahead and **remove “restaurant” from the name and just call it *Club Kiss*.**

Because the experience we had definitely leaned more **club than restaurant.**

End of the day:

Slow service
Happy Hour that wasn’t really Happy Hour
Food that was hit or miss
$176 later

Yeah… I’m cool.

**I won’t be doing a re-up unless I hear about a drastic change.**

Alief Foodie keeping it honest. ️

I was disappointed with my recent experience. The service was very slow, and there were several inconveniences throughout the evening. The special they were promoting had already run out, which was frustrating. My drink order was incorrect, and the food took a long time to come out. Additionally, multiple menu items were sold out.

We were celebrating our anniversary, and unfortunately, nothing was done to acknowledge the occasion, which made the experience feel even more underwhelming. Given the level of service and overall experience, I would have preferred to celebrate at a more consistently upscale restaurant such as Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille or Mastro’s Steakhouse.

As a Black-owned business, I came specifically to show support and was hopeful for a great experience. Because of that, it is even more disappointing to leave dissatisfied. I truly believe businesses we support should strive for excellence and consistency, especially when customers are choosing to celebrate special occasions there.

Overall, the experience did not meet expectations.

$75 just to hold up a sign saying happy birthday and dessert??????

Stop scrolling and pick another restaurant. This restaurant is way too expensive for the service and food. Dined here for my friend’s birthday and probably would have had a better time at Chili’s. And yes you read that correctly… we were charged $75 for a happy birthday sign that we couldn’t even keep. They didn’t even sing happy birthday. Just stood around like bottle girls and dropped off dessert which should have been free since it was her birthday.

They had a live band which was nice but it was very loud. We could hardly talk to each other or our waitress. The waitress also provided the VERY BARE MINIMUM if that but our checks were charged 20% gratuity. We had to beg for straws and utensils. She took our order and never came back until after the food had arrived for 5 minutes. She refilled our waters after the checked was paid. Definitely felt like we were robbed with the added gratuity.

The food is definitely overpriced. $20 for 6 wings and we aren’t talking whole wings.. $49 for 4 lamb chops with no sides is crazy. They also were suppose to come medium well and we could barely cut through them with a knife. The salad was $14 and adding any protein was $15+. The salad was very basic and lacked personality. My friend ordered the fried chicken and you can tell they just dipped the chicken in flour without seasoning it. Very very bland.

Save your money and dine somewhere else with much better food and service. Never had an issue with spending money on food but this wasn’t it.

We chose Kiss Houston for a friend’s birthday dinner, and overall it was a nice experience.

The atmosphere was beautiful definitely a standout feature of the restaurant. It was lively, though I did find the music to be a little too loud for my preference. That said, the DJ kept the energy up and played a great selection all night.

For dinner, I ordered the pan-seared salmon along with a cocktail (I can’t recall the name, but it was excellent). The salmon was flavorful, though I personally would’ve preferred it cooked a bit longer. Still, it was enjoyable.

Would I return? Yes, I’d come back but next time I’d love to try their brunch.
