Nara Restaurant & Lounge

Mediterranean food lovers, rejoice! We've found a new gem - Nara, located off Baymeadows Rd. Our dad, who's from Lebanon, gave it his stamp of approval and we can't agree more. The menu may be limited, but the flavors are anything but. We enjoyed fattoush salad, hummus, fried cheese, lamb and kefta kebabs, and a chicken schwarma platter. And if you're looking for a fun night out, come on a Saturday and dance the night away - the interior is perfect for it! There's also outdoor seating for all of you hookah lovers! We're excited to go back and we highly recommend you give them a try!

Absolutely fantastic customer service. Amazing acknowledgment as you walk in the door. My first time here, and I simply wanted a snack and ordered kibeh, and they threw in a hummus and their very own homemade fresh baked pita bread as well. Extremely thin and somewhat elegant to my liking. I definitely will be coming back for a bigger meal. 🥰

I honestly liked the food and drinks over the hookah flavors. I’m not sure if I just got a bad mix or if the flavors just aren’t robust. I didn’t like that we had to sit outside because there was a private event going on indoors which we weren’t aware of until we entered the establishment but they made up for it with the belly dancer. She was amazing! But overall the food has great flavor, drinks were greatly made and the service was good.

This was one of the best mediterranean food I’ve ever had in my life, the atmosphere is amazing, the service is amazing and the owner is one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. I will definitely be back and recommend all my friends and family to come try it out.

Nara Restaurant Review Nara Restaurant is a Mediterranean restaurant. The food presentation is excellent, with dishes that are both visually appealing and delicious. The kibbeh is a must-try, with a crispy crust and a flavorful filling. However, the hummus is not as good as the one you can buy at Costco. The restaurant has plenty of parking and is wheelchair accessible. However, the environment is very loud, making it difficult to have a conversation at your table. Additionally, the food can take over an hour to arrive after ordering. Overall, Nara Restaurant is a good option for a casual meal, but it is not ideal for a romantic dinner or a business meeting.
