Kirby's Steakhouse

Our son took us to Kirby’s to celebrate my husband’s birthday. It did not disappoint! We started with the Grilled Australian Lamb Chops and the Oysters Rockefeller and the dishes were amazing! My husband ordered the Redfish Pontchartrain which included grilled shrimp, our son ordered the Prime New York Strip with sweet potato mash, and I had their Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail. All dishes were amazing! Rich flavors and perfectly cooked/baked. We did had their Turtle Cheesecake on the house as a birthday celebration which was a very nice surprise. The service and atmosphere were perfection. Our glasses were never half empty and the staff made sure we were doing well the entire time. It should be noted that although it appeared as though we were the last ones left after they had already closed, we were never made to feel rushed. They kept tending to us. will definitely be returning.

Kirby's Steakhouse is one of those places that reminds you why classic steakhouses still matter. Let’s start with the food — because transparency matters. I ordered the lobster bisque and, while beautifully presented, it missed the mark for me. The flavor leaned more tomato-forward than creamy, and the lobster itself was unfortunately a bit too firm and chewy. It just wasn’t the indulgent, velvety bisque I was hoping for. That said… everything else quickly redeemed the experience. Their chopped salad was absolute perfection — crisp, balanced, and exactly what a great steakhouse salad should be. Pair that with a lemon drop martini that was smooth, refreshing, and expertly made, and I was back on board. Now, the steaks — while I’m personally not a huge steak eater, my husband is, and every single steak he’s ever ordered here has been phenomenal. Perfectly cooked, richly flavored, and consistently excellent. Kirby’s absolutely knows what they’re doing when it comes to steak. But here’s the real reason we keep coming back — the service. The staff and customer service at Kirby’s are truly next level. In a time when genuine hospitality feels harder and harder to find, Kirby’s stands out. You’re not just waited on — you’re welcomed. The team makes you feel like family from the moment you walk in, and that kind of warmth and attentiveness is rare these days. At the end of the day, food can be adjusted — but outstanding service is unforgettable. And Kirby’s delivers that every single time. If you value exceptional hospitality, a welcoming atmosphere, and consistently great steaks, Kirby’s Steakhouse in The Woodlands is absolutely worth your visit — and your return.

Very disappointing experience for what was supposed to be my husband’s birthday dinner. I made a birthday reservation, yet when we arrived no one acknowledged it. After being seated, I noticed the table wasn’t even prepared for two guests. I had to go back to the host stand myself to ask if they saw the birthday note on the reservation. The 2 hosts seemed unsure and had to check the screen. Even after confirming it, not one employee or our server acknowledged the birthday all night. Our server never introduced himself, or asked if we were celebrating anything special, seemed rushed, and acted annoyed when I asked questions about the menu. Meanwhile, he was laughing and being very friendly with other tables. The biggest disappointment was the $100 mishima wagyu steak my husband ordered. It was extremely chewy, not edible and to top It off not the correct steak he ordered. When the server saw the untouched plate there was no apology, no attempt to make it right other than taking it off the tab, and no manager came by to address the issue or apologize for the inconvenience. We were friendly and polite the entire evening and never complained, yet no one seemed to care about our experience. I was honestly embarrassed that I chose this restaurant for such a special occasion. When customers are spending this kind of money, they deserve good food, attentive service, and staff who genuinely care. We will not be returning and would not recommend anyone wasting their money on this restaurant especially for any special celebration.

We have been to Kirby’s many times over the years and always enjoyed it. For my daughter’s Birthday she wanted to come back. It was the day before Thanksgiving and maybe that’s normally a slow day, but I was surprised to see only a couple tables occupied. I will cut to the chase, it was very bad. We started with appetizers of Lobster Cargot and Calamari. Lobster Cargot was delicious as always, but the Calamari was very bland, boring. My son wanted to try escargot so we got that also. While the snails themselves were good, the sauce was not edible as it tasted like vinegar. They usually wipe the serving dish dry with bread to get all the sauce, but it was untouched this time. For dinner, my daughter ordered the steak and cake. The steaks actually tasted a bit like charcoal. That was new. The crab cake had zero flavor to it and had to be drenched in sauce. My son’s girlfriend ordered the salmon on the cedar plank, but could not eat it because it tasted like wet cardboard . My daughter and son also tasted it and confirmed the taste. My son had the Ponchatrain fish, which he said was too tough to eat. My wife and I both had filets, both tasted a bit like charcoal, but they were OK. My daughter also had the lobster bisque. It wa struck and clumpy.

Ate here for the first time. Heard the food was great. I wasn't disappointed. The service was 5 stars. Friendly, made sure what we ordered was perfect, yes, perfect and not just good. I felt spoiled. Atmosphere is very inviting, comfortable and actually quiet. Men's restroom was clean so I can presume the Lady's was too. I will certainly eat there again.

Had just a wonderful dinner with my family. The service was great, the food was greatand the only nit picky was the temperature. We survived lol. We shared the wagyu platter... fun and perfectly prepared. The fried pickles are always a great guilty pleasure and the shrimp were big and plump! Great way to spend my daughter's birthday. Thank you.

This was my first time at Kirby’s and I am so happy I went. The atmosphere was energetic and the menu was exciting. I had their king crabs legs and filet steak - what a delicious combination. Another dish (I wish I took a picture of) was escargot- you have to try it !!! Over all this was a great night and the staff was on point - there for you with suggestions and made you feel welcomed. I can’t wait to go back ….

Kirby’s steakhouse HH in the bar is the best! The service from Alison and others which in the past has also included Justin and always includes greetings from the kitchen…Clarence and staff are the absolute best at getting the best flavors out of the featured items! The dirty martinis with mixed plain and blue cheese olives is my “go-to” yet my SIL had a sweet cranberry one that wow if you like a martini with a splash of cranberry then go for it. We were celebrating my 45th bday and Kirby’s didn’t disappoint! We started with the stuffed shrimp (bar menu) and mostly eaten in the pic because I forgot to take a pic b4hand with this amazing b something sauce (kinda lemony wine cream) yum! Then fried pickles with yet another yummy sauce. And of course the tender grilled lamb chops (HH menu) (yup you got it another amazing sauce), baked herb Boursin cheese (HH menu-fresh roasted garlic cloves - only order on a 2nd date or up or you may turn your date away with your breath haha) delicious! Soy sauced sliced beef (bar menu) I think with a chimachuri sauce that’s great; meat so tender and buttery! Steakhouse sliders (bar menu but had ordered the French dip sliders but didn’t disappoint) very flavorful and fries cooked perfectly as well as raw oysters where I mixed the cocktail with the pesto EVOO or whatever with extra horseradish that again was Amazing! And fresh bread with plenty of butter to soak up any of the sauces mentioned above just because they were all so good! Ending with the bourbon pecan pie with a great flavored ice cream that we all shared a bite (or 2!). The lighting at first was dark yet naturally lit since the sun was still up at 5 but by the time we left around 6:30pm it was darker, it could have been lighter but I guess if we had kept our candlesa d not “shoo’d them away it would have been lighter) but we ordered so much food for our party of 6 we needed the table room. However still a 5 star experience!
