Naru restaurant in Camden

Delicious and authentic food with excellent service. Recommended

Ttukbaegi Bulgogi and pancakes are not worth the price

Few days ago we went with my friend for a lunch for the first time to Naru. The food is really nice, and Ohji was really helpful and attentive with everything as she took a great care of us. Will go back for sure!

Great little place. Delicious food.

Possibly the best kimchi I have ever had. Bibimbap was excellent too. Thank you very much!

So tasty! Had the stir fried udon with beef. Good portion, filling and really good!

I love coming to naru, the atmosphere is so calm and cosy, very nice for eating solo!

The food here is delicious and I have checked in many times. The staff is also very friendly and always has a smile on her face. She was the only staff member on duty at the time, and I always saw only one staff member busy every time I came to eat, but sometimes they can be very busy in the afternoon. I feel sorry for the staff who work alone. But overall, the food and service were very good. We ordered Korean BBQ hot pot and beef bibimbap. On a cold day like today, the hot pot tastes particularly warming, and the bibimbap is simple but delicious.

One of the coziest spots in london, if you are craving authentic korean food, this is the place to be. The staff is super nice and if you have any questions about the food they are super helpful.

They’re food is a joke. This is not real Korean food. Servants are rude.

Food quality is fresh and good and also Service is excellent

The food is delicious and the owner is friendly. I recommend it If you come to the UK, please stop by.

Waitress doesn’t know the menu very well The buttons on table do not work The chef Forgot the glass noodles in the hotpot

The food taste so so soooo good!! So authentic and tasty. Best place in London. Ohji, the hostess was incredibly friendly. Thank you for the food and the cozy experience that you guys offered. Your friends from Saudi 🫶🏼

Excellent food and service quality best

Food quality is very good and excellent service

Very clean and great customer service but the portions are small.

The boss is Korean. I like spicy fried rice cake. This is my favorite restaurant. The service staff are also great!

It's really surprising that they are friendly to foreigners but unfriendly to Koreans hahaha. They don't even give me water until I ask for it separately, and they go around asking everyone at the table behind me if their food is okay, but they don't even notice me :) I had a Japanese friend in my group, but why did he also ask for it? They asked if they didn’t give water to just our table^^ The most unpleasant thing was that when paying, I clearly said, “I will pay only for the soft tofu stew separately and split the rest between two people,” but he said, “Then I will pay for the soft tofu first,” so my Japanese friend paid first, and I tapped second, and then my other friend paid. I was waiting to tap, but it said the payment had already been completed... haha ​​(When paying, it doesn't even show the amount on the card machine, just taps the part) I was dumbfounded and said, “I said I would split the rest between two people except for the soft tofu stew..” Without even a single apology, he said, “I told you I would pay for the soft tofu stew and the rest.” His shameless attitude was so amazing hahahahaha I The communication was clearly communicated and common sense dictated that 3 people ate, but if you asked them to share the bill, don't you think that 3 people would pay? If you're confused, ask again, and if you don't understand, be polite. He did it as he pleased, but he didn't do anything... I thought there could be a misunderstanding in communication by giving in a hundred times, and that's not possible, but if it was difficult to cancel the credit card payment, I would have said there was nothing I could do and moved on, but his attitude is really rude. )

Bibimbab Pork / Tofu are the best here. Strongly recommend 😇

I really recommend this restaurant. It is the most delicious Korean food in London. The atmosphere is friendly. The food comes very quickly. I will definitely come back here again.

I really enjoyed it. If I couldn't finish it all, I was going to take it out, but it was so delicious that I ate it all in one sitting. I'll come again next time!! It was so delicious!! It was a satisfying meal after a long time. I will come again!!

Delicious food and excellent service.

This was my second visit and I had really delicious Korean food😎 The owner was very friendly, the staff were friendly, and the food was really delicious!

It is a really delicious Korean restaurant run by Koreans. I think I'll find it again every time I come to London! I enjoyed it so much~

It's the best spicy seafood noodle in London and staff are really friendly:) I will visit again for sure

My wife is Korean and was pleasantly surprised to find a Korean restaurant while we were visiting London. Tteok-bokki was not spicy at all, and it was a bit runny, but their steamed ribs were really good as well as their kimchi. The Korean owners were actually the cooks which made the food more authentic.

It’s been a while since I visited, but the taste is just as amazing as ever! It’s so delicious, and I can’t wait to come back again soon!😆

I have been to this place a fair few times and they do really well both with their service and with the food. My favourite dish they do is the Yukgaejang (육개장). Its perfect for dinner, its spicy, warm and so hearty. Highly recommend this place to everyone. The owner is always very friendly as well. Edit: While i still agree with everything above, they have since reviewed their prices (which i saw today) and i feel it’s far to expensive now, so probably wont be returning, shame.

The food was good(you should order rice seperately) and the staff were lovely. I really enjoyed this place! Thank you

Good Korean food and nice staff. I had lunch at Naru today. The food was incredible but the service was even more impeccable. A staff named May was working alone today and it was super busy. She single handedly managed the floor when it the restaurant was full. The food came up very fast and we are very happy with our order. I recommend bibimbap on the lunch deal.

A cute little place, with delicious food. The Japche is very tasty, the portions are very good. Highly recommended.

Foods was brilliant, staff are all friendly.

The place is a bit run down and not very clean to be honest but the food is not bad and the service is very fast. Also the ingredients and flavors seem very authentic, so I would definitely go there gain for a quite lunch but would appreciate them out a bit more effort on making the place nicer.

I had Jjambong at Naru yesterday and it was very tasty. The staff was very helpful and recommended the dish. Overall, everything was great and service was fast.

It seems to be run by a young Korean owner. I secretly missed my order and called and asked, and they responded by asking if I could bring it to them. The owner ignores the Korean customers and seems wary. Trying not to make eye contact with Korean customers... .If you make eye contact, you avoid it and look at other employees to take care of it… There are a few other Korean restaurants around, so this place is not recommended.

Splendid & Delicious Food available here

They provide a quality 👌 service and food 👌

The food was so delicious. It was better than most restaurants in Korea. I ate all the soup from the earthen pot of soft tofu stew. The earthen pot beef bulgogi was also excellent. I went there twice during my short trip. The squid rice bowl with kimchi pancake was also delicious. Considering the cost of living in London, it is very cost-effective. Highly recommended. The owner is Korean and we were very surprised when she welcomed us warmly and served us kimchi. As expected, Koreans are very affectionate.

The Korean restaurant I visit every time I come to London is really delicious. My foreign friends are always satisfied. This time, I ordered bulgogi, tteokppongi, and jjamppong (delicious with a lot of sea cucumber water) for my main meal, and they were all delicious. If you are looking for a good Korean restaurant, I definitely recommend it.

Tasty and delicious food and service quality is very excellent

Outstanding environment and hospitality

Your food is delicious and I will come again.

Good Korean food and decent price. I love everything except my soup, it was too salty. Everyone in my party thought it was a great meal though.

Excellent food and service this neighbourhood

Food quality is very good. Excellent and service quality is very good

Good service, excellent food quality

fried chicken and kimchi jeon it was very authentic and tasty . Would definetly recommend

The food is very nice, staff are friendly. We ordered Cheese Bul Dak, LA Kalbi, ojingeo bokkeum, kimchi and oymuchim( spicy cucumber salad).

This is a Korean restaurant I found while traveling. I had kimchi stew and pork dumplings and they were delicious and the service was also good.

Food quality is Very good, delicious and excellent service of Naru restaurant.

Best Korean restaurant in London. I would highly recommend, fresh tasty authentic Korean food and very friendly staff!

Kimchi stew is really crazy... . I used to only eat greasy foods, but after eating this, I immediately felt relieved. It is clear that the owner is Korean… I'm crazy ㅜㅜ It’s so delicious…

Delicious Korean food, fast & friendly service. Highly recommended!

The food is beyond delicious and the staff are very kind and helpful. This is why I came back to Naru for the second time !

A very nice restaurant. Never tasted korean but i loved it, mostly because this shop was amazing!!! Loved kimchi <3

Good experience in this place! Bibimbap was very good and staff is adorable.

Great food, friendly and quick service, will be coming again!

Kind waiter and waitress. Good Korean food.

I regret to say this was well below average. Have definitely eaten much nicer for less. I don't mean to be rude, but I was asked if I would come here again, the answer is a clear no.

Service was quick and the food was amazing. I'm definitely coming back.

Top notch Korean restaurant! The service is fast and perfect! We are well advised and with a smile! Many thanks to you!

3 of us went to have a casual dinner at this restaurant for the first time and were very pleased with the food and the bill. The waiters are friendly and efficient and the atmosphere was at-home. As the restaurant isn't so big, when it is full, it can be very noisy.

The rose tteo bokki was not great. It was sweet, and not authentic. The eel and rice was a lot better.

I went there with my kids. I ordered cold noodles and kids ordered black bean noodles and Pajeon. We all love the food. And all staffs were very friendly. I would recommend to have Korean food in here. I will definitely come back.

Questionable at best …. Ordered the Udon noodles (soup version) the soup lacked flavour it was basically salty water ? the Tofu was literally slimy and oozing weird goo ? Qué?? Confusing flabbergasting yet unpleasant taste? I am deeply confused by this experience also the toilet was right next to the kitchen, there was a sign that you shouldn’t flush the toilet paper so the toilet paper was disposed in the bin which is kinda nasty … also they have a „if you leave a 5 star Google review you get free drinks“ policy which leads me to believe that the positive reviews are skewed - allegedly! but with all that said the staff was nice to us

I ordered the Kimchi Bokkeumbap and Kimbap and it was really delicious ! I recommend this restaurant :)

Very nice food. There is a bell on the table to call for service, no need to find a way to get the waitress's attention. I like it. Moreover, there is air conditioning which is essential for today as it's 28degC outside. Highly recommended!

Today I had a very bad experience at this restaurant. Extremely rude service, super overpriced and terrible food. The whole episode was extremely insulting. Never again. Avoid this restaurant.

Delicious food and excellent service.

Very authentic and tasty Korean restaurant! I ordered Kimchi Jigae and it tastes just as what it should be! Japchae may look boring but the taste is heavenly! like their flavorful dishes👍🏼

I ordered the beef hot pot, it was delicious! The spiciness is just right, it contains eggs and vegetables, and it’s also a very authentic Korean seasoning. I’m so happy to be able to eat it in the UK❤️

Excellent, authentic food at a reasonable price, great fried chicken and lunch deal bulgogi.

Excelent food, service and place. As a Korean food lover, must say that the tteokbokki, the chicken fried with sweet soy sauce and bulgogi meat were fantastic, spicy levels were easy to moderate. The makgeolli was also excelent. Would recommend and come back when in London once again.

we got cold noodles (naengmyeon) and a seafood pancake to share which was perfect for a hot day! absolutely delectable. would come again😌

Great authentic Korean food! BBQ beef and pork are both delicious

Really tasty Korean style food. Price is reasonable. Food is hot and is just delivered in about 10 mins.

Food is nice. My girls love udon so much.

decent interior and delicious food. The jigaee and noodles taste traditional

There's a good range of drinks available, with a special recommendation for the grape juice, which comes in a can but includes real fruit bits. The Korean pancake, which we tried with cheese, had some undercooked parts and some that were cooked well. It was our first time trying it, and we appreciated the option to customize it, but I found the cheesy flavor didn't complement the kimchi well. Overall, it was pretty average. I really enjoyed the bibimbap and found it comparable to dishes from other places. The gochujang sauce was pleasant and not too spicy, which makes me think it might be homemade. The half-and-half chicken was a mixed experience; the chicken wings were better with sauce, while the plain fried chicken lacked flavor and was less enjoyable. Overall, this is a highly recommended place. The staff is knowledgeable and attentive, and they encourage leaving a review for a free drink, which is a nice touch.

IT was very good, nice Atmosphere, and very good food👍

Taste is good. If the portion could be bigger, it would be perfect.

This is the best fried chicken I have ever had

Great food, atmosphere, and music!

The most delicate kimchi fried rice I've ever had, each grain of rice was sweet, warm and springy. The fried egg was divine!

As a South Korean, I can say food here is very authentic! Bulgogi, ojingeo bokkum and pajeon were all lovely! The service was great too👍👍 I definitely recommend anyone to come here and enjoy delicious food!

It's so delicious! Korean food will only be here from now on...

Nice food and service!! Really worth the price 😋

I've lived in London for 30 years and most authentic Korean restaurant in Central London. No competition. Easy to book a table by calling the restaurant.

Great place stopped in pre show really enjoyed it. Food was great

Seafood pancake was good! Kimchi jjigae is slightly over fermented - it has this sour and a lil stinky smell - personally not a fan.

love the food it was delicious. I would recommend if you want to try authentic korean food.

Very nice place and friendly staff. The food was great, very authentic, worth the money. I love the seasweed spring rolls and bibimbap

Found this restaurant quite randomly on a walk, and am very happy with my choice! Staff is very friendly and welcoming, inside the restaurant is quite cozy with plenty of room at the table for all the delicious food. Portions are very generous and i didn't find the food too salty unlike other reviews.had barley tea, kimchi side and jajangmyeon all of which were tasty.

Amazing food and cute cozy restaurant

Have been coming to Naru for years now. Great food and service. My favorite korean restaurant in London. I recommend

Good fried chicken, new menu home made pork dumplings are really good

Delicious food. Lovely bulgogi, rice bowls, and plenty of kimchi. The korean fried chicken was excellent too. Would highly recommend!

Great range of korean food and great service. Food is lovely as always! Love that there are call bells on the table to get servers attention.

Friendly service and yummy food!
