"Today we were in Kingston for a shopping trip and afterwards a meal, we hadn’t decided where we would go so just started checking out what was on offer. We passed many chain restaurants that didn’t inspire us at all, then I noticed Narenj. Never eaten Persian food but love anything Mediterranean so we walked in. Immediately we were greeted warmly by our server Neda who showed us to a table by a window overlooking the Thames, lovely. I asked for a non alcoholic beer and Neda brought me a chilled bottle of Istak a malt beverage with a hint of lemon, it was really nice! We chose a sharing main that consisted of skewered lamb, chicken and minced lamb, salad, rice, flat bread and roasted tomatoes. This was so lovely, the meats were marinated and tender, all cooked over charcoal that makes such a difference as it’s the authentic way to cook this type of food adding a wonderful flavour. For dessert we chose a Persian pistachio and chocolate cake and Persian ice cream made with pistachios, rose water and saffron all rounded off with a perfect cup of Persian coffee. This was such an unexpected pleasure on all levels, we are definitely coming back and bringing friends and family. If you enjoy the flavours of the Mediterranean and appreciate authenticity served food with warm hospitality you will fall in love with Narenj. Thank you so much Neda and your colleagues for a most enjoyable experience."

Beautiful riverside setting at the back of the Restaurant which also has an upstairs dining room. Service was not fast but the food was very tasty once it arrived and we were plied with fresh bread and dips whilst we waited

Great place with very good customer service. Nice food quality, fresh meat and fantastic drinks! I should thank Shila, one of the staff, who made us a memorable day there by her charming characteristic and kind hospitality. Highly recommended.

My friends and I really enjoyed the food and the ambience of the restaurant. One of the staff there was particular knowledgeable and friendly. He recommended us lovely Persian tea andessert. Their meat grills, and especially the aubergine dips were second to none. We would definitely go back again.

A lovely relaxing long lunch with the doors open onto the river. The food was simple but excellently cooked and yummy. Very reasonably priced. But most of all the service was genuinely welcoming and charming . A lovely change from fancy overpriced restaurants. Met a woman from Iran the other day who knew this restaurant and went there.

I recently went to Narenj with a group of wel- travelled friends, some of whom had been to Iran. We were delighted by the greeting of the staff, the table (with a view straight over the Thames), and, especially, the food. The waiter was able to explain and describe, with knowledge and enthusiasm, the particular Irani nature of the food. We were very satisfied by the results and would all come again!

I ordered the chicken on the bone with Persian bread at this restaurant, and I was very disappointed with the experience. The dish consisted of just bread, chicken wings, a tomato, and a chili, and it was very dry with no yogurt or other accompaniments. I felt that I would have had a better meal if I had gone to the local kebab shop instead. Overall, I was not satisfied with my meal and do not plan on returning to this restaurant.
