Terrific

by aminmordeh

Great food. Fine Persian Cuisine. I also followed the "Honest" persian. Food was great, and the live music was great. I will be coming back for more.

Terrific Restaurant in Houston

by Art14414

This place is fabulous. I was turned off by previous review, but I decided to follow Mr. “Honest” Persian and try it out myself. As I said it was a great and enjoyable experience for my family. No comparison between quality of food served here and other places mentioned in the “honest” review! I do not intent to knock any other restaurants down, but there is a big difference between other places mentioned and Garson! Quality of food and service is not comparable. Ambient is terrific and as I said before not comparable with fast Persian food being served by all others!

Worst Persian food in Houston

by Honestpersian

By far the worst Persian restaurant to eat at and to enjoy your evening in Houston!!!!! We were the only other table in the restaurant on a Saturday night and our party consisted of 22 people. The food was cold! The waiter was brought from an old farm from Iran that was not accustomed to American dinning and service! Also there was this young waiter that was unbelievably rude. Management was even worst! Although there was this one lady that tried to help but still could not deliver! They do have live music EVERYOTHER Saturday. I honestly believe they hire those musicians to lure people in for the music just to make enough money to pay the bills; I mean why else would anyone want to pay $20-30 a plate for cold food and the worst service ever!!! You can read this review and think its fake but I personally ask you to take your family there and come back and leave a review based on your experience! I was a waiter for 3 years and I promise that I never treated people with such respect that Garson offered. Please do yourself a favor and don’t waste your time, money, and evening there because you will be back here doing the same thing I am doing the next day! Keep in mind that there are other Persian resturantes that are way cheaper and have excellent service such as Kasra, Hafez, or Darband (similar to garson but not as bad).

Food Fresh from the Microwave

by GoBananas

My stew, which came highly recommended, tasted like prepackaged Dinty Moore, and had soggy shoestring fries sprinkled on top. The lamb shank was mostly fat, and also came in a watery Chef Boyardee sauce. Most of the menu seemed more Italian than Persian -- while I'm not at all familiar with Persian food, I frequently eat Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food, and this was nothing like either. The atmosphere and service felt very upscale, but this was a wasted effort given the quality of the food. The best part of the experience was the flatbread which comes free with every meal. Anything served in a sauce is not a high point for this restaurant -- I can't speak to whether the grilled/skewered meats are any better, but I will not be going back to find out.
