Loved the 3 course tasting menu (plus added the scallop supplement). Everything was portioned perfectly and played beautifully. Thank you to my amazing waiter Vin. Last night of the special SNL 50 drink! It was delicious. And the dessert was unbelievable. Really amazing flavors, such detail in everything. I had a great dining experience at Naro.

The atmosphere, décor, and service were excellent—truly top-notch. However, I found the $60 Restaurant Week dinner menu to be on the lighter side. The staff encouraged us to order additional dishes for sharing, which we didn’t opt for, but unfortunately, we didn’t feel full and ended up getting food elsewhere afterward. For my main course, I chose the beef dish and was surprised to find it was a patty—I wish this had been clearly indicated on the menu. It wasn’t particularly impressive. That said, the cocktail and dessert were the highlights of the meal and truly stood out.
