★★★★★ 5.0 Hzima Diab · Nov 2025

I had a wonderful experience at Nara! The food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made me feel very welcome. The atmosphere was cozy and perfect for enjoying a great meal. Highly recommend

★★★★☆ 4.0 Ali Hajiahmad · Jun 2025

Great experience at Nara Bistro! The appetizers were fresh and tasty, the Arabic live music created a fun and lively vibe, and the hookah was top-notch. Friendly staff and a warm atmosphere made it a great place to relax with friends. Only downside was the wait time for food, but overall a solid spot for Mediterranean food and a good time.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Leo Al-Moslih · Jan 2026

Unfortunately, the kunafa is terrible. Lack of cheese. It’s made with cooking oil that is obvious and that’s not how it’s supposed to be. I can’t believe the price for as well. I hope you do your research on how to make it and if you’re not able to, please remove it from your menu. Thanks!

The kunefeh was really bad. On the other hand, the hookah was good quality and enjoyable, and the servers were friendly and helpful throughout our visit. If you’re planning to drink tea, I highly recommend getting a teapot instead of ordering single cups—it’s a much better option overall.

★★★★★ 5.0 Shadi AlKhudari · Nov 2025

I’ve been going to Nara Bistro for the last 20 years — the food is still decent and the hookah remains consistently good. Like any longtime spot, they’ve had their ups and downs, but overall it’s still a solid place to hang out. I’d just love to see them ramp up the ambience a bit to match how great this place has been over the years.
