Hayat is a great restaurant. They serve the best dishes and the atmosphere is spectacular! Great friendly staff and their service is second to none. There is a lot of people who have an exquisite taste in music who have become an established artists in Houston by performing at Hayat. I am really disgusted by the way people have been targeting this place based on their own hidden agendas.

Great spot for Turkish food! We went for a late-nite bite and the atmosphere was great. We were surrounded by groups celebrating birthdays and enjoying hookah. The music and dancing was a ton of fun. The food was just what we wanted too.

I recently visited Hayat Cafe in Houston, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! The highlight of my visit was their pot curry, which was absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich, the spices were perfectly balanced, and the presentation was top-notch. The pot curry had a delightful blend of tender meats and aromatic vegetables, creating a truly mouthwatering dish. The portion size was generous, ensuring a satisfying meal. The staff at Hayat Cafe were friendly and attentive, making the overall dining experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Hayat Cafe, especially if you’re craving an unforgettable pot curry. It’s a definite must-try!

Great experience. I wonder why it's not more popular. Had the juiciest beef koobideh. Went for Ramadan buffet and they had a great selection or Persian and turkish cuisine.

Food was not hot fresh! We were a party of five asked for water for beverages and was brought out 5 random water bottles and charged us $1.45 each, thus $7.25. They included gratuity tip in the bill and charged us a 4% non cash fee. Definitely ANOTHER COMING BACK

Quality of food isn't good, and on top of that the charge you 4% for credit charges without advance notice. I really don't recommending this restaurant

It was a great experience. Our server was nice helped us through the process. We ordered a salt chicken; cooked inside a solid salt. Portion was big, perfect for three people.I gave three stars for atmosphere because of smell, my wife didn't like it. It was basically lingering hookah or Sheesha smell.Will definitely come back to try some lamb dishes.

Great food and great customer service. Our waitress was very attentive and welcoming. The restaurant was very clean and nicely decorated. The seats are cushioned well for you to relax after you eat and partake in Hookah. There are two outside dinning areas. One in the front and the other on the side with a privacy fence. The parking lot was well lit and private security was visible.

My coworkers decided to choose a place for lunch on a cold day. All of us wanted to do ramen or a soup place however we had one recommendation for hayat so decided to go there around noon on a weekday. When we arrived it was completely empty and we had a party of 8 people- I ordered a veggie pizza. It took 45 mins to come out. All of us ordered together and we were getting a bit irritated so we asked how long our food would take. The waiter stated they were waiting for everyone's food to be done to bring all of it out at once. We stated it's ok just bring it out when it's ready. They started bring the food out and when we got our food it was hot. I tasted the pizza felt like it needed some spice so asked for chili pepper and they brought me a different type of crushed pepper which seemed a little more mild than the normal pizza crushed pepper but was still good. Overall we got out of there in one hour and 45 mins. The food felt like it took forever! We won't be back due to that reason - although we were the only party, we were big but still was hoping to get out maybe in an hour and 15 mins max. The bill came out to be around $13 for a decent size pizza. I'd recommend calling beforehand and picking up instead of coming in if your on a time crunch.
