    📍 Amrina The Woodlands, TX When it comes to an Indian fine dining experience, @amrinathewoodlands leads the way!

But I think it is ovehyped, the food was not great for the money they charged. One can get better food at many palces in Houston at a much lower price. Very little chioce on the menu.

                                                                                          Is this helpful?

Appetizer arrived cold after a 20 minute wait. It was also dry and undercooked. Then our wait for mains was at least 30 minutes. In olden days (earlier this year!) the restaurant was packed, the food and service were on point. On this Saturday eve at 7pm the restaurant was maybe half full and service and food like this seemed to exacerbate the situation. Chef Jassi clearly has moved his focus to Houston (where he earned Michelin recognition) and now I understand he’s also opening something in D.C. Feels like he’s moved his best people and focus off the mother ship and it may be crashing. Lee the manger tried his best to smooth it over, removing certain charges and bringing extra food and desserts and kudos to the restaurant for that. But Amrina was the top restaurant here maybe as recently as this spring. Certainly Bar Bludorn and Charloais are stealing the top end dollars these days but this makes me sad. $300 for family of 3 and the wine was really fairly priced at $60, a maybe 2X retail markup you never see in Texas (3-4 times retail for bad wine much more likely) and I’ll credit them all day for a reasonably priced wine program. Positive also that the food that showed up at proper serving temp was great as always. Lamb shank, Dahl, butter chicken and quail plus the octopus appetizer was phenomenal. But man, it’s just terrible how the kitchen and inattentive service can ruin an experience and at $300, it needs to be better always. Hopefully Jassi will return in time to right the ship.

                                                                                        Yes, families dine here; one reviewer specifically brought a 5‑year‑old and said staff were exceptional with their child, and other reviews describe family celebrations like Father’s Day and anniversaries.

                                                                                        The butter chicken is frequently singled out, guests praise Jassi’s butter chicken, and a butter-chicken dish (listed as Thai Butter Chicken) appears on the current menu.

                                                                                        Yes, Amrina highlights a Happy Hour and offers distinct experiences like the Chef’s Table, which guests repeatedly praise as a memorable, front‑row culinary event.

                                                                                        For a lively night out, aim for Friday or Saturday dinner, reviewers note busy Saturday evenings, and for a truly special occasion, plan around the Chef’s Table experience.

                                                                                        Yes, Amrina has a patio; the restaurant description mentions dining “a date on the Patio, ” and guests note outside seating as a spot to enjoy the Waterway setting.

                                                                                        Yes, Amrina is well suited to date night, with an intimate Patio, the Chef's Table experience, thoughtful wine pairings, and many guests reporting anniversary and romantic visits.

                                                                                        Yes, Amrina features crafted cocktails and a curated wine program (it’s earned Wine Spectator recognition), and many guests praise the cocktails and wine pairings.

                                                                                        Yes, Amrina offers vegan options (they maintain a vegan menu featuring several regular items) and gluten-free choices such as a listed "Gluten Free Naan, " with staff who have accommodated gluten-free diners.

                                                                                        Business casual is the guide, aim for neat, polished clothing rather than formalwear; many guests note people dressing up a touch for anniversaries and special nights.

                                                                                        Sunday evenings are a lovely pick, guests describe memorable, lively Sunday nights and one reviewer even said they "practically closed the place down" on a Sunday.
