Halal Reviews for Kinara Tenderloin

Excellent food and amazing service! First time here from Houston and really enjoyed everything we ordered. The chicken 65 is the best I have ever had. Houston raves about its food here equally good if not better! Our favorite was the pani puri shots, chicken 65, MVP Pizza, BBQ Ribs, Chicken Tikka Masala and Biryani. The Biryani had a bit more masala than rice but it was still delicious! And the naan - best ever - so hot and fluffy!! Amazing end to a long touristy day here in Bay City! Everything was so good so we decided to give dessert a try and I am so glad b/c fheir Gajar ka Halwa reminded me of Karachi! So so so good!

Sahil is awesome. What a welcome and place! So many great food & drinks options & a great representation of Indian food. We had desi / badmaash wings, pani puri, nihari, cheese naan & thumbs up. The decor is fun. People are noticing it- they should get more neon signs, fix up the front exterior & get some lighting to attract. Use the social media momentum :)

We visited Kinara today for first time and we absolutely loved their fusion desi food! The pani puri shots were so chic and fun to eat, and the samosa’s were perfectly crispy and flavorful. The mocktails were super refreshing 👌🏻 truly the kind you keep sipping without realizing.😮‍💨 We ordered the mix grill platter, and it came out sizzling hot with amazing aroma.💥 The butter chicken was rich and creamy,and Their naan is not to be missed too soft, buttery, and the perfect combo. And the biryani right after was fragrant, flavorful. Also tried the mango lassi and chicken boti, both delicious and beautifully served.Ended up with their famous Faluda The presentation is top-notch, and the service is very accommodating. Overall, such a delightful dining experience!🫶🏻

Enjoyed Kinara for dinner! The inside was really cute and cozy. It was very busy at dinner so make sure you do a reservation. Tandoori Fish was really tasty (I am not a big fish person but I really enjoyed it) no fishy taste. Lamb chops are a must and the cheesy garlic naan was almost like a mini pizza. Would recommend for a nice halal place to eat. They also had a prayer spot downstairs. This is downtown SF so make sure you go early to find parking (it’s a pretty popular area with lots of food spots so parking is very tough) there are two parking garages however they are flat fees of $30+, we were lucky to drive in circles until we got street parking. Again just go early to ensure you can find parking or if you are okay parking far and walking.

Quick update: the pizza tastes better when reheated! We ordered more than we could eat and just ate the leftover pizza for dinner. The flavors came out stronger with a day in the fridge and reheated in the oven. 👌 ---- We had a wonderful meal at Kinara. It was less fusion than we were expecting, but super flavorful dishes. Highly recommend the appetizers -- we thoroughly enjoyed the pani puri shots and the cauliflower Manchurian (warning ⚠️: it is spicy! 🌶️). The gulab jamun was also really flavorful and not cloyingly sweet like I've experienced in the past. Personally we found the green lantern chicken a little dry (although fine with the dipping sauces) and the curry for MVP pizza a less curry-forward that we expected (but not bad by any means). The pricing is very reasonable and every dish was very flavorful. A lot of tables near us were ordering the fire fries, which we'll have to order next time we visit. I would also guess that their curries are really good. Slightly lower marks for the service since it was a bit slow to begin with, but once we ordered the food came out very quickly. This is a hidden gem dinner option to add to the rotation. 👏
