Located on New Cavendish Street in the heart of Marylebone, Naroon is where Persian tradition meets modern taste. This contemporary Persian restaurant has quickly established itself as one of the most highly rated Persian dining destinations in London, bringing authentic flavours and warm hospitality to the bustling neighbourhood.
Under the guidance of talented Iranian chefs, Naroon's menu celebrates traditional Persian recipes while adding contemporary touches. The interior creates an intimate, welcoming atmosphere that blends elegant modern decor with traditional Persian warmth. The dining room maintains a cosy neighbourhood feel, perfect for family gatherings and special occasions.
The kitchen specialises in succulent kebabs grilled over charcoal, including the classic koobideh made with minced lamb shoulder and onion, and the popular jujeh torsh featuring boneless chicken thigh marinated with roasted walnuts, pomegranate molasses and northern Iranian herbs. The soltani combines the best of both worlds for those seeking a complete kebab experience.
Beyond the grill, Naroon excels in slow-cooked stews and speciality rice dishes prepared in traditional deegs. The ghorme sabzi presents a fragrant mixed herb stew with diced lamb, kidney beans and dried lime, while other options include lamb shank with dill and broad bean rice. Starters showcase Persian classics like kashk-e bademjoon, a beloved aubergine dish, alongside persian herb frittata topped with barberries.
The restaurant opens early for breakfast and brunch, offering dishes like eggs baked in slow-cooked tomato sauce with sangak bread, and spinach with cornish farm eggs. For dessert, the saffron ice cream comes highly recommended by regular diners.
With a beautiful private dining space available, Naroon provides the ideal setting for celebrations, offering tailored experiences paired with vibrant Persian dishes and attentive hospitality.
