Narah Cafe: Reviews & Ratings
Food was amazing. Great service. The patio is big and very beautiful. Hookah was good. Their hummus was my favorite!
Delicious authentic middle eastern food. Friendly service. Great patio with a waterfall and hookahs are available. Highly recommend Narah for its great atmosphere. Narah is a really good place to gather with friends.
I Highly recommend this place! The food is exceptional! It's fresh. The background decoration is to die for. They have varieties of hookah flavor. And on top of that it's BYOB!! I always order the fatoosh salad. It's really good. & the Kebob plate. I always have a peaceful time here with good food. & you gotta try the dessert. It seems like a family owned, great service.
Our first time coming here and we love the food. We got the Family style Narah Grilled Combo. Greek salad was delicious. Baba ghanoush and hummus are delicious. Love the ambiance! The staff is incredibly and friendly and accommodating, making our dining experience memorable. Highly recommended.
Good food and service highly recommend Outdoor seating also available. It won't disappoint
Great hookah and awesome food . Love the outdoor experience. Service was great as usual .
I love this place and the food is amazing, even the servers really take care of you, it's nice vibe chills not that parked
Repeat customer. Good value and good flavors with late night hours. I have tried quite a bit of stuff on the menu and you really can't go wrong with any of the "sandwiches" a.k.a. wrap and Fattoush salad. Beef shawarma and shish twook to name a couple. I also like their pot of hot tea with sugar. Indoor and outdoor seating option is nice too.
It's been almost a year.... time for an update! I've learned something important about Narah Cafe, and that is, I'd rather not go on a Friday or Saturday night. What's great is that they're open until 3 AM and the kitchen is open until 2 AM (awesome to have something besides fast food when you're hungry and it's late). But whoa, Narah Cafe gets super crowded on weekend nights, and that means super smokey as well. Great for business and the hookah lovers, not the greatest for me. Last time I came in here on a Friday night, almost every table was full, and most of the guests were very young - under 21. So, definitely loud and smoke-filled! I know it's a hookah bar, so of course there will be smokiness. But the whole room was so hazy, I couldn't take a bite of my food without inhaling someone's nearby exhaled smoke. Just a bit much for me. The food is stellar and my new favorite thing is the lentil-lemon soup. It's thick, fresh, brightly flavored, and extremely hearty. It could be a meal on its own. I also tried the lamb kabobs which packed a ton of flavor. It came with a bed of rice, and I was a bit irked because I asked, "is your rice just rice, or are there noodles in it?" I was told "it's just rice!" However, it's clearly rice pilaf (although the menu doesn't say so). So if you're gluten-free, avoid their rice. Looked fab though. The kabob meal also came with some grilled veggies: onion, jalapeno, and tomato. Delicious! And a light, wonderful tahini sauce to dip everything in. We ordered the lemon-mint hookah again - great flavor. Like a citrusy gum... it's nice and cool. However, with all the smoke around my head, I wasn't digging it. I just wanted to eat! Narah Cafe is BYOB, but there is now a $5 charge per person. That's not too crazy, but I'm not sure it's worth it. Overall, I'm still a fan of this restaurant. Pretty good prices, friendly staff, great food, and a fun environment. I'll probably come on a weekday next!
