We were sat inside but my wife felt a little cold and we asked to sit outside. I wish they told us that Hookah was being smoked outdoor cause that would've changed our decision to sit outdoors. But once outdoors, it felt like we were forgotten about. We had to wave to get someone to take our order. We were never checked on to see how our food was. Once we finished, we had to wave to get someone to bring us our check. The food was okay. Not bad at all but nothing to write home about. My wife loved the sweet potato fries in particular. Perhaps for the area, this is really good, but coming from Houston proper, there are many other options for similar if not a cheaper price.

I recently visited Lama Persian Restaurant and really enjoyed the food. The design and atmosphere reminded me of Kazakhstan,never been in Iran While the interior is not particularly luxurious, the food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The prices are on the higher side, but the quality, taste, and overall dining experience make it worth it. I would definitely come back again and recommend it to anyone looking for flavourful food Waitresses were very friendly
It's always a pleasure to read about a restaurant you haven't tried, go and visit it and discover a new favorite for future dining excursions. This is the case with Lama Mediterranean Cuisine in The Woodlands. My wife had a doctor's appointment at 2 pm and we live about 35 miles away, I figured go early and get some lunch and then get to the doctor with a full stomach. We put the address into the GPS and pulled right up in front of the restaurant. While it was nice weather outside, we decided to sit indoors and I am glad we did because I noticed some diners outdoors were batting away insects. Our server, Abraham came quickly and took our drink orders while we studied the menu and admired the beautifully decorated interior of the restaurant. Blue is a strong color they have used effectively, there is a large dinging room for a big group just off the main dining room and a bar at the far west end. We ordered some appetizers and they came out quickly, We had a small order (4 pieces) of the Fried Hallumi Cheese and also Kebbeh. Both came with a small sampling of cucumber, tomato and red onion which paired well. The Kebbeh had the most fragrant seasoning, I believe a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and clove. The serving sizes were ample and after trying some we both agreed to save room for the entrees we ordered, my wife had the Gyro Sandwich and I had the Chicken Shawerma, both were wrapped in a super fresh pita that had to be house made. My wife had the regular fries and I had sweet potato which were cooked perfectly, so light and crisp. We couldn't resist ordering some baklava to go, my wife thought walnut sounded good but our server said he felt the cashew was the best so we ordered that. When he brought it out, he said that there were 2 pieces of the cashew but he also added one of walnut at no charge, what a treat. We will be coming back here, the restaurant overall was super fresh and clean, service was great and the food was fantastic.
Delicious and well packaged to-go trays. The grandchildren love the kids chicken nuggets/fries. The Baklava and Hot tea is very tasty. We ❤️ our USA troops and salute 🫡 Thank you for your service. LAMA serves our community and strives to deliver outstanding service too.
Great tasting vegetarian dishes. Chicken kabobs were too dry this time. Excellent atmosphere to enjoy a meal or be entertained in the evening on Fridays.
