Yucca Grill

Saw an article on the Klein Community Impact newspaper and we are always looking for new restaurants and new flavors, so my wife, sister in law and I went on Sunday 12-15-24 around 6pm. The place is very clean and cozy. The service was excellent, the food even better. we tried the Lamb chops, the Lamb Shish and the meat wrap. All great!! Their rice pudding is different from what we had tried, but excellent. Also the hot Turkish tea, never tried it before, now I love it. Their rice is very different but with a lot of flavor. The owner was extremely courteous and friendly. You guys need to try this new gem, you won't regret it. We for sure will go back!!

Read about the restaurant in the Klein Community Impact newspaper and visited for dinner. Place was buzzing with customers. We were greeted and seated promptly. Due to the rush and with Murt and the owner's daughter being the only ones waiting on tables, there was a bit of delay in taking our orders. The wife-husband owners were busy cooking and washing in the kitchen. Food, consisting of Hummus, Round/warm Turkish bread, red lentil soup, Kapoglu (eggplant with cheese), Yucca Mixed Grill, arrived relatively quickly, given the crowd. Tastes were exquisite! Especially the soup, eggplant, lamb chop, minced lamb skewer, and the Adana Chicken - meats in particular were moist/tender and beautifully marinated. The grill platter came with pickled red cabbage, julienned raw onions, and flat bread. Reminded us of the exquisite meals we had in Turkey! Murt was very apologetic about the delay in attending to us and treated us to home-made Baklava - a yummy, welcome surprise! Food tasted fresh as it is all made to order onsite. Overall, a fantastic experience - the meal set us back $85 (including a 20% tip). The restaurant is a great addition to the Klein community - do visit and support a local, family-run business.

First time I tried. I forgot to take photos because I was busy to eat :). My husband wants to go back for lamb chops, I liked everything we ordered. I wish the server explained what and how to eat the dishes as we said it was first time. Overall I recommend and will go back in near future

I woke up craving Turkish style food, so I had to head over to Yelp for help! Yucca Grill came up as the closest to me. I saw it had promising reviews, so I told my husband "We are having Turkish food for lunch!". He wasn't sure what Turkish food was, but I promised him it was delicious! He's adventurous so he was up to try. We had no expectations for this place. It's located in an unsuspecting strip center. When you walk in you forget you're in a strip center off Louetta. The atmosphere is trendy, elegant, romantic and beautiful. First impression clean! Appetizer We started with the Yucca sampler. So delicious, and the bread.... Goodness gracious the bread, don't judge us on the two baskets we ordered. Entrée For our entrees we order falafels to split so we could taste them. So fresh, the seasoning was terrific and the falafels were not dry whatsoever. I ordered the lamb chops. I love lamb chops and if a menu offers them I will get them. Every.single.time. These lamb chops were some of the best I've ever had if not the best! Tender and juice, with awesome spices. They were good cuts as well, the bone was not splintering and you could cut through the meat with a butter knife. My husband ordered the Vienna schnitzel. He said it was very tasty and seasoned well. I am not a schnitzel person but tried his. It was so delicious. More like a very tender not as greasy and the batter actually sticks to the meat chicken friend steak. He kept going nuts over the fries. He loves fries, I'm 100% sure it's his favorite dish. He kept raving about the seasoning. Drinks My husband ordered the Turkish coffee. He's never had Turkish coffee before so part of me didn't want to warn him... but I did. He really enjoyed the coffee and loved how smooth it was. I got Lemon Mint. I crave lemon mint and it's really difficult to find a good cup here. When they brought it out and it was green with the ice froth on the top I was so excited!!! I took my first sip and I was transported back yo UAE. It was so delicious on this HOT Houston summer day that I even thought I deserved one to go. Dessert We were too full to eat any dessert as half of our meals were packed up for a second meal, but we did ask for some pistachio baklava to go. I'm sure it's nothing short of delicious and cannot wait to try it! While I was enjoying my beautifully prepared lamb chops I looked up at my husband and said this place is someone's dream. Someone thought and dreamed of Yucca. There is thought behind every dish and how it's presented. It's truly a beautiful inspiration. I wanted to get this review out while everything was fresh in my mind from freshly leaving Yucca Grill. I told my husband we will be venturing to Spring at least once a month to fix my craving for Turkish food.

Such a great restaurant find for the area! We loved every dish we ordered and were so happy we decided to try a cuisine we don't eat often. The appetizers were all so flavorful and different. My favorite appetizer was the honey cheese. The calamari was also good, but a different texture than what is typical so it may not be for all palates. The grilled platter was great to sample all the various meats, and we thought each meat choice was well grilled. The ambiance is very relaxing with soft piano music and beautiful furniture. Service was excellent with the staff checking in at an attentive, but not excessive manner with good consciousness for water refills. Our waiter even gave us extra bread and dip and complimentary tea to end the meal :). We can't wait to come back and bring family next time!

Ambiance: Bright/airy & trendy grill located off Louetta serving Turkish cuisine! I loved their interior decor. Great for lunch, a date night, family dinner, or quick bite. The food was amazing! I loved the crispy chicken wrap. The hummus appetizer plate was very good. Onsite parking. Fast & friendly service! Highly Recommend if you are looking for a Turkish restaurant in the area.

Turkish? Well I never, so today was a first and a delightful one at that. Similar to Greek and yet different, this is a memorable experience available locally that will make you forget where you are and transport you to Turkey. Hospitality is key and Alper exudes old world charm and youthful exuberance, guiding us through the menu as only a foodie can. We started with appetizers, a halloumi cheese baked and cover with honey that was fantastic though a bit salty for those with sodium restrictions. I found it an amazingly well done combination of sweet and savory. We also enjoyed the complimentary bread basket accompanied by a roasted tomato/pepper combination that made me never want butter. Our last starter was a minced lamb/beef kibbeh bulgar combination that was reminiscent of a boudin ball that was a savory delight. Our main courses were stunning. I opted to try the Adana kebab which featured a skewer of ground beef and lamb. The spice level was hotter than I anticipated and I was unable to tolerate more than a bite or two. Others at my table sampled it and did not find it incredibly hot so I know it was a me thing. I had them box it up so I could allow my son to enjoy it. Others at the table had the beyti kebab and enjoyed it tremendously. We also had the Chicken Kulbasti which featured chicken thigh meat and various vegetables which was tender and flavorful. Lastly, since I knew the spice issue was me and not them I dove into the house burger. The burger is a carnivore's delight featuring a patty enrobed in Demi-glacé, beef rib meat and a slice of roast beef, caramelized onions and mushrooms. Can we say umami?

On a scale from 1-10 how happy am I to have another halal restaurant here in Spring?? The number is too high-- it is way up there-- because I am absolutely ECSTATIC to have another halal place in Spring. We've been waiting and we have the community, and finally they have arrived. I love the decor upon entering the place, but sadly did not take pictures because we were very hungry (and late to meet up with our family). Beautiful green walls and flowers among the restaurant was a great welcome. The humus, had a fine taste to it but I especially like the chicken and the salad that came. I also enjoyed the lentil soup. I usually get the one from down the road (starts with a z), but this was great too. I have to say that I like the customer service. Yes, the food was delicious, and there are more reviews about that, but I have young children and I appreciate when wait staff are helpful and attentive to them. This is what made me want to review and spread the good word. (In my best shark tank voice): And for that reason, Yucca--I'm in.

Outstanding food and service, Alper was our very informative waiter who recommended our food - he knocked it out of the park! Delicious, fresh, so full of flavor, and a beautiful environment. Probably one of our favorite places to eat at in Klein now. And have the crust less cheesecake - you'll thank me later!!

We tried the new Turkish place that recently opened up in Spring. The restaurant is so clean and decorated nicely. We loved the large wooden table! The food presentation so nice! The food was delicious! Our favorites were the Manti and the Beyti Kebab! For dessert, we had the San Sebastian and it was 10/10! Service was great! Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and would love to go back and try more dishes!
