Best Vegan Restaurants in University of Houston

My wife, myself and two friends had our first lunch of 2025 here and had a great experience.

We had the best time enjoying the Tasting Menu. Every single course was flavorful, different, and exciting. The Amuse Buche, currently a cumin and truffle macaron topped with kaluga caviar was an incredible start to the meal. The Achapam rose cookie or the Lychee Coconut ceviche may have been my favorite courses, they were so light and refreshing and flavorful with interesting notes that were fun to discuss with the other people in our party. I have to mention the absolute decadence that is the Paneer. I would absolutely order it over and over again, the texture is so soft and smooth and its sauce was clean the plate with naan worthy. Our server, JP, did a wonderful job walking us through each course and explaining the concepts of the restaurant and creation of dishes, as well as talking through cocktail flavors, and taking extreme care of me with Food Allergies. The restaurant is so beautiful and detailed, with tiny bits of intricate decor everywhere you look. Try the Zaffran cocktail, you won’t regret it!

Been to this place several times, always excellent. Priority to Kiran’s I thought I didn’t like Indian food. Since trying food here I LOVE! Indian food. The tea experience is a must try. One of the best in the Houston area. They have a great selection of mock tails. Highly recommend

Christmas Eve at Hamsa—phenomenal food, wine-pairing (sommelier—so excellent), Yalla yalla experience—flavor, flavor! And the continuous flow of energetic servers capped off an evening with serious conversation, laughter amongst my family. The ambience was excellent. And all 5 of us genuinely appreciated the attention by our host/lead server Shawn—accent and all! Thank you!!

Congrats on your Michelin star accomplishment!!! Well deserved! We had a wonderful time dining at BCN with such exceptional service of Mr. Mario! Thank you for making our holidays so much fun and memorable!
