Amazing food! Great service! Great cocktails! My absolute favorites: wagyu steaks, skillet potatoes with the fried egg and CRAB CAKE!!! Their crab cake is the best in Texas, considering I am from Maryland, that's a high compliment!!! read more

Expensive, regular plate is around $40 plus every thing else. You would spend $150 including Tip for dinner of two with 1 drink each. Taste was great everything was delicious! Service was pretty average Ambience was nice read more

Great atmosphere and the food is always on point. Service was great. The New Year's Eve menu had a large variety of options.

Went to Killen's Steakhouse for the first time for Valentine's Day 2023! The ambiance was very nice, but the meal itself was very underwhelming. We had an appetizer of pork belly which turned out to be the best dish of the evening! To be a luxurious steakhouse it missed the mark in our book. When we left, I made a joke to my husband that I now needed to go home and cook dinner for us. Wet Aged Ribeye read more

Killens Steakhouse - Wet Steak - was not the best. - Steakhouses Near Me - Pearland, Texas

Ok, so this isn't my first time to Killen's but it is my first time in the 'new location' and writing about Killen's. So, wifey and I missed the concert at the rodeo so we decided to have a really nice dinner instead. We were greeted by the Hostess and she took great care of us. We didn't have a reservation but was fortunate enough for a table to open up. The moment we sat down it was on! I had my Macallan 12 neat (of course), and she had her wine. We settled on the scallops for our starter and we were wowed. Cooked perfectly. For our main she had the grouper and I had the Rosewood Wagyu fillet. I'm from Florida so I don't usually order grouper in Texas. It's a Florida dish. Don't get me wrong, wifey's grouper was amazing. If you want seafood they will impress you. Now let's switch gears and discuss the fillet. I had the 6oz medium rare and it was epic! I would stack this steak up against any steakhouse in the greater Houston area. It was tender. Color was perfectly uniform. Flavor was outstanding. This fillet could turn a vegetarian into a meat eater. It was that good. Now for the sides....tried but could finish it because it was family size portions. We had the roasted Brussel sprouts and monster size grilled asparagus. Super good too by the way. Finishing off the awesome meal was a creme brûlée cheesecake that we took home for a nightcap. Man, that desert was good. I saw my son inch closer to the box. He knew what type of goodness was in there. I think I heard him say 'thanks dad' in between bites. As usual, Killen's did not disappoint. The staff was amazing, the food perfect, again. You want an outstanding steak? Go to Killen's. If you can't make it to Florida for a wonderful grouper go to Killen's. You want an epic dinner experience? Go to Killen's. read more

My husband and I had been wanting to go here for years. We decided to splurge for our anniversary. The drinks were brought right away. I had the French 75 and my hubby always gets Crown and coke. We had a Starter-Korean BBQ MArinated Wagyu Skewers, Chimichurri, Queso Fresco which was delicious and flavorful. For entrees I went with Jumbo Lump Crabcake, Lemon Butter, Jumbo Shrimp which was perfect. My husband ordered a steak with Potatoes Au Gratin. I ordered the creamed spinach. For dessert we shared Crème Brûlée. Larry, our waiter was outstanding too. read more

I have been thinking about this experience for a few days and upon reflection felt compelled to share. We were having a celebratory dinner--we've loved the food in the past and were excited for the occasion so we made the nearly hour long trip out. As we were halfway through our main courses. A roach crawled across the table, grazing my plate and scurried toward my sister. We were very polite about it, however sickened. Toward the end of the meal, a man stopped by (presumably the manager) and awkwardly acknowledgement the issue, minimizing the fact that a roach joined us for our meal at his establishment. He offered us a dessert, which we declined. That was it--we received our $350 bill with barely even an apology. It definitely isn't the type of hospitality one would expect at even a casual chain restaurant. We were low key about it, and went on about our night, but retrospectively I am appalled and hope future customers don't have a roach at their table or if they do, this type of experience. read more

Killens Steakhouse - Our visitor - Steakhouses Near Me - Pearland, Texas

Ok. Here we go. First, the food was great. The service was great. But the meat was overcooked to what I asked. I asked for medium rare got medium. The sourdough bread was more like ciabatta bread. Pepper grinder was carried under the arm. I liked the timing of the food to table but the sides came separately about 5 minutes later. Overall, I gave four stars because the food and service was great. And what is with the weird tasting water? read more

I know we normally highlight restaurants, but I want to applaud one staff member in particular. I took a friend to dinner last night at Killen's Steakhouse not only because I knew the food would be great, but because Randy was working. The dude takes genuine pride in his craft. He's reminiscent of the 3rd generation waiters at the old guard dining establishments like Antoine's or Galatoire's. He's truly in the hospitality business, and takes that to heart. He makes you feel welcomed and comfortable, while still maintaining some of the genteel dynamic. He works at Pearland an I believe STQ as well. If you find yourself at a Killen's restaurant, I strongly suggest you ask for him by name. Cheers read more

I was told to check out Killen's and have heard great things about it! I ordered wine for my drink and I loved it! I like sweet wines and it was definitely my kind of sweet. For an appetizer, started off with the bacon wrapped scallops. I really enjoyed these! Good amount of food to start off with. The filet was cooked nicely and tasted great! I ate all of it. For a side I got the mac and cheese. It was okay, but I'll try a different side next time. I like our waitress. She was helpful and even brought out a napkin to match my black dress. The restaurant has a sleek look to it on the inside. The lights were dim which gave it a nice and relaxed ambiance. Although the food is pricey, it's definitely worth it. Overall I liked the service here and will be returning. read more

Killens Steakhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Pearland, Texas

Best steak on the Southend of Houston in Pearland. I know they have other locations throughout Houston, but we've gone here for the last 10 years and we've never had a negative experience. The staff is professional and meets all your needs. Just can't say enough about them. read more

Food is always the exact Same Fresh and Delicious one of my favorite Steakhouses in the state...The drinks are Amazing and the restaurant is definitely a Vibe.. read more

My wife and I ordered wet aged(meat should be tender since connective tissues are broken down) ribeye and new york strip, which I had tried before, so I'm sure they brought us regular steaks. I'm not mad, just disappointed. It's still a decent place, hope you get a better experience in case you're thinking about coming here. read more

Used to recommend this place until They stopped serving the Tomahawk so i just end up eating that filet mignon flight which didnt impress me For $150 And No sides.... read more

It's expensive but worth it! The food, the staff, the atmosphere ... all perfect! We tried several sides, appetizers, and dessert. Not one complaint. I will definitely be back! read more

Food is amazing. The crab cake is my favorite! My husband enjoyed his steak but very pricey.

Food, service, ambiance all superb. Went back again and they killed it again. I had the crab cake and an old fashioned. The bread is addicting. read more

My wife took me here for my birthday. I had a big thick juicy steak. I frequent bars on steak night and have found the ribeyes to be delicious. It is a hard pill to swallow when I pay for a steak that is twice the price without being much better. I was not disappointed with Killens at all. Their steak was cooked to my order, seasoned perfectly and very tender. I already plan to take my dad here for a lunch date. I highly recommend!! read more

Omg. If you don't give Killen's Steakhouse a 5, maybe meat just isn't your thing, so you shouldn't bother coming here anyway. Or maybe you should, because every single thing they serve is unbelievably delicious. The vibe is understated, you can be in T shirt and jeans, or dressed up, you'll fit right in. It's quite a smaller venue than I had anticipated, but lends itself to an intimate experience, yet laid back anyway. read more

We had been wanting to try this place for quite sometime. We love a great steak and have been all over trying good steakhouses. First off, the service was amazing, super friendly staff. My filet was pretty good but, I have had a lot better. The sides were more than adequate in proportion and were tasty. I don't think we would ever come back specifically to eat here, due to the fact there are much better choices closer to my proximity. If I was ever in the area and craving a steak, I might stop in and have one. Knowing I would have a good dining experience, just not a great one. read more

First of all, I really don't understand all of the 3 star (and lower) ratings. To the person last month who only complained about an unwanted credit card charge, uhhh, how was the food? Our experience was excellent. The service was fantastic from the hostess who seated us and chatted with my wife, to the water guy who always had my water topped off, to our waiter who was friendly and helpful. I ordered a premium old fashioned and my wife ordered a dirty martini, and both were excellent. I had the tuna tacos to start and they were excellent. They just debuted a new menu this week so I thought I had my entree picked out at home, but something called 'gumbosso buco' caught my eye. I asked the waiter about it and he recommended it. It was probably the best take on osso buco I've ever had. You can really taste Ronnie's influence on the smoked shank, and the accompanying roux to pour over the meat was wonderful. Two words: GET THIS!! My wife had a caesar salad and the snapper with crabmeat topping, and both were great. In fact, she couldn't finish the snapper, so I willingly helped her. Just a reminder: the parking is complementary, but they do work for tips. read more

Ordered dry aged ribeye. Ordered medium rare - I got almost medium well. Pros: Very rich and buttery flavor. Though a bit over cooked than I expected, the quality of beef was great. Tender but can feel the texture well. My friend's wet aged steak was less dry btw. The cheese and broccoli risotto is really good. I will give 5 stars to the whole grain toast and baguette. Cons: The steak!! Way too salty, a bit dry, got over cooked. Actually a little disappointed.... Also some of the sautéed mushrooms were bitter. :( Conclusion: With $75 before tax I wish to have something that's tasty... The quality of the steak is definitely good. It just deserves to be treated better. read more

This place is the Mecca of BBQ in Houston! The appetizers are great to order for a meal if your on a budget and the deserts are great to stop in and just order for a cute date (to order desserts only-lol) Or go for the gusto and order the pork chop and indulge in the Amazing brisket they cook daily! Not it mouth watering and their homemade bbq sauce amps the taste of the all the bbq offered! It's a great place for special occasions and or rare family events to gather. To go orders for covid are always correct and never wrong! Thanks for that it's frustrating getting home and not getting what you ordered! Try it you won't be disappointed! read more

Made a Mother's day reservation for this place, always wanted to eat here as I have been to the other offerings in the Killen Empire. I am not a close friend to Ronnie, but have spoken to him on more than one occasion. Let me say this, I have been impressed by Ronnie, his food makes a huge impression as it is executed to perfection, or near perfection for those that insist nothing is perfect! Now to our service, everything was to our expectations, and beyond. My wife, son and I, went with our servers recommendations (Randy) and he offered us the Tomahawk Ribeye. Are we glad that we listened as it was definitely a great bang for our money. We also had the mushrooms, Potatoes, Asparagus and the Lobster Bisque. There was a young man (Cory) ensuring we always had plenty of water to consume. The entire staff was attentive and very pleasant. Ronnie thank you again for a wonderful dining experience.

Always the best steaks in Houston! Great service, side dishes and wine menu. A great place to celebrate. It's not cheap, but great meat never is cheap!! read more

This is one of my all time favorite places to visit. We had a MUD event here and although the menu was preselected, the food was still top notch. Service was impeccable and accommodating as usual. I had the snapper which was divine. The crab cakes, fried tomatoes, and skewered beef were all top notch starters. I rock with Killens hands down, (from the old location)and I always will. God bless 'em!! read more

My foodie friend convinced me to drive out to Pearland to try what she declares to be the best steak in Houston. She knows I'm a serious carnivore and have been known to harshly criticize steaks (even feeding a disappointing $125 number to my dogs.) Needless to say, when we sat down to order, she became anxious, worried that she had over-hyped it to me and that I'd be disappointed. Well, as you can see from my rating... Beginning with some stellar appetizers, this dinner definitely impressed! The pork belly was melt-in-your mouth silky with plenty of luscious fat. Smoky... sweet... delicious. The bacon-wrapped scallop was hearty and satisfying. Of course the star of the meal was the steak. We split the ginormous 27 oz Snake River Farms Domestic Wagyu, and it was absolutely divine. Perfectly seasoned, every tender bite delivered a deep, rich, beefiness that can only be achieved with proper aging. Every bite was satisfying. Best steak in Houston? It's definitely up there. Let's just say I won't mind driving out to Pearland again when the craving strikes. And I know it will. read more

Incredibly underwhelming experience from the waiter being stiff/nervous and awkward, to him forgetting part of my order. The worse part is my dry aged steak was a very sinewy, tough chunk of meat to cut with little flavor. I was done after 3 bites....pushed it aside and told him to throw it out because I wasn't going to take it home to eat it. So for a $350 bill I had bread and mashed potatoes. I realize they have plenty of 5 star reviews, I would have killed to have had just a 3 star meal. Never again.... read more

I had such a wonderful birthday dinner here! I made reservations online a few days in advance and they were curtesy enough to call the day of to confirm. Upon arriving, there's complimentary valet provided which is a nice feature. The restaurant was clean and we were quickly seated by the hostess. They also provided a birthday card upon my reservation as well! Our waiter was very attentive and I appreciated the little details he did for us such as splitting our gumbo soup into two bowls so we didn't have to share one big bowl. He also added a sweet birthday dish at the end even though we were super full from dinner and had passed on desserts. The food overall was amazing! I definitely came here to try their steaks and I was not disappointed. I had the filet mignon 8oz. with the cheese broccoli risotto as my sides! Both were so flavorful and nicely seasoned. My fiancé had the New York strip and the mushrooms as his sides, also delicious! Meals were paired with a rose wine & st. Arnold's beer. I'll definitely be back again for our special occasion. read more

There are reasons why such a nice looking restaurant has consistently poor ratings - and my wife and I were reminded of at least a few of those reasons last night. First of all, HUGE parking lot, but "complimentary parking" is required. Most people (including myself) feel compelled to pay the guy who takes your car and brings your car. Total waste of time and money. Next, for such a beautiful set up as you walk in, the restaurant is the opposite of welcoming. Loud and bright bar area to the immediate right as you walk in actually made me feel like a patty was going on rather than what I expect when entering a posh steakhouse. Third, waitstaff - Everyone likes to be welcomed, but a brief greeting along with a few "special" tips are appropriate as you're seated, not an interview. We had determined what we wanted to drink and eat pretty quickly, even though we had to PULL any specials out of the waiter. Our drinks came out pretty quickly and now we're ready to order - we're hungry, that's why we decided to stop by - but no, our waiter excused himself to greet more customers. After 30 minutes our drinks and half our bread gone, we still hadn't ordered and actually had to call down Rod (training) and Ryan, supposedly teaching. We told them that we really wanted to order some food and they immediately started trying to explain what they were busy doing. That's it - we're out. I can't even review our meal because we never got one. We paid $40 for our 2 drinks, $10 for parking and pick up and headed to Whataburger. Paid $16 for that meal and thoroughly enjoyed it! read more

That's their medium rare. Dry aged toughest and driest piece of steak that I ever tasted. But I have to be fair. The staff is flawless and that's why the experience didn't entirely ruined my anniversary. Sides tasted way better than the steak (risotto and Brussels sprouts) My tip: saltgrass at target strip has a way superior ribeye for a fraction of the price. I'd only come back for happy hour just because of the staff. Killens business is bbq and that's it. If you are willing to spend some money into serious steak go to Frisco or morton's. 1 star for the food and 6 for the staff. Hope you work on it. *edit A partial refund was offered. They charged for one steak out of 2 only. read more

Killens Steakhouse - Dry rib eye - Steakhouses Near Me - Pearland, Texas

Very nice place. We came here for New Year's Eve and reservations where required. They have complimentary valet (which is always nice lol). We checked in and sat at the bar for about 5 minutes while our table was ready. At the bar we ordered a nuts & bolt whiskey. This drink is a must try. I like how they add homade pecans on the top which is really cute. The menu for New Year's Eve is a price set for $95 per person. For each person it comes with an appetizer, soup or salad, entree (with one side, very large so it's shareable), and dessert. I had the jumbo lump crabcake, the lobster bisque soup, the lobster rockefeller witch mashed potatoes, and the carrot cake for dessert. All my food was delicious! The lobster bisque soup had a lot of flavor. The carrot cake was very tasty and warm. The service was also great. Our waiter was kind and professional. All of our food came out in a timely manner. Ten minutes before 12am (for New Years) the waiter told us that they serve complementary champagne to countdown to the new year. That was nice. I absolutely enjoyed my visit very much. Definitely worth 5 stars. Would definitely recommend for couples or special event. read more

Still one of my favorite steak places in Houston but the move from the original location took away a lot of the "local" and intimate feel. Nuts and Bolts is my favorite drink anywhere. I haven't gone wrong with any of the sides. To be honest, double broiled prime steak is pretty similar at most high end places but the sides and dessert are really what differentiates Killens from the others. My only negative is the valet. There is absolutely no need for a valet in this area and the lack of self parking makes makes a place unnecessarily pretentious. read more

Killen's Steakhouse the Steakhouse of Pearland. I've been going to Killen's since I was in high school when it was off 35. Its grown so much and the quality has excelled. Came here on a night for my friend's birthday and left stuffed. The server we had was attentive and helpful. He embraced my knowledge of what the cows eat and where there from etc. I was indecisive about which Wagyu to get. He explained that the Japanese Wagyu has more of a marbling look to it and the Australian was more of a red meat. Food: -Baked Gulf Oysters (4/5): The mole is a bit overwhelming but it turned out great! Great starter -Baked Asparagus (5.5): OMG my absolute favorite starter! The crabmeat and the sauce makes this dish tastes wonderful! Definitely recommend this! -Japense Wagyu 4 oz (4/5): The Wagyu was definitely too hyped. I thought it was good but not amazing. I think there was too much pepper seasoned on top. Sides: Broccoli and cheese risotto, creamed corn, Brussel sprouts, and mashed potatoes! Everything was lovely. Great family style sides. read more
