Seriously the absolute best yummiest food I've ever eaten in my 51 years! A bunch of us come to Fort Smith from DFW to play in the symphony and look forward to getting Nara Chicken when we get here. The employees there are so accommodating and helpful and friendly. The restaurant is clean and very pleasant. If i could give Nara Chicken a zillion stars I would! Please, Nara Chicken, will you come and open a restaurant in Allen, TX??

We recently had the pleasure of dining at a Mediterranean restaurant for the first time, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish! As someone who can only eat fish or poultry, I opted for the chicken over rice, and it was absolutely delicious. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and tender, served over a fluffy bed of rice that was both flavorful and satisfying. Every bite was fresh and well-prepared, making it clear that the ingredients were top-notch. My son chose the lamb gyro, and he couldn't stop raving about it. He said it was packed with flavor and the lamb was cooked to perfection, wrapped in warm, soft pita. It was a hit with him, and he finished it in record time! My husband decided to try the pastrami sandwich, and he declared it to be THE BEST pastrami he has ever had. The meat was incredibly juicy and seasoned just right, nestled between fresh bread that complemented it perfectly. He was thoroughly impressed and can’t wait to come back for another one. The customer service was as delightful as the food. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that we had everything we needed without being intrusive. It made for a pleasant dining atmosphere where we felt welcomed and valued. Overall, this Mediterranean restaurant is a must-try! With a diverse menu, fresh ingredients, and exceptional service, we left feeling satisfied and eager to return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a delicious meal!

I had the Chicken Over Rice at Nara Chicken, and it was absolutely delicious! If you’re a fan of fresh, flavorful dishes, this one is a must-try. It reminded me of the Mediterranean version of the famous Steven Special Mexican dish—packed with bold yet balanced flavors. The dish had a light, spring-like taste, thanks to the fresh vegetables that added a crisp, refreshing bite. The chicken was cooked to perfection—tender, juicy, and seasoned just right. But the real star was the creamy sauce, which tied everything together beautifully, giving it that rich, comforting finish. Overall, Nara Chicken nailed it with this dish. Whether you're craving something hearty yet fresh, this is definitely worth ordering!

Great food, customer service, and atmosphere. We forgot to take pictures before we started eating so I apologize but I will go ahead and post the photos we took when we remembered. If you decide to eat here you will understand our excitement! We ordered the chicken burrito and the chicken kabob plate.

Phenomenal food! We had chicken kabobs and lamb over rice, some baba ganush with fluffy pita bread, and a salad. Everything was fresh and made before our eyes:) Open kitchen definitely makes for amazing food! We will be back!

Legit! Finally the flavors and quality of food you should expect for authentic Mediterranean food. The chicken kebab is so tender and juicy, the falafel is THE BEST crispy outside and soft inside with the perfect seasoning, creamy hummus, fragrant saffron rice, we had the Mixed plate and Falafel plate so we could try a bit of everything. Plus grape leaves and baklava. Absolutely delicious & charming counter service. This is a hidden gem.

I cannot say enough great things about Nara chicken!! The food, the staff, the environment, all so amazing! I got the chicken over rice and it was so full of flavor. The chicken was so tender and the tzatziki was out of this world. The workers were so nice and so helpful, and were quick to respond. I don’t live nearby and stopped here on the road, but I’d make a trip out just for this restaurant it was that good! Highly recommend!
