The space is non descript and you may expect something more upscale with the name Sky Pavilion. However, once inside and you browse the very extensive menu, you recognize the authenticity of the food. We had the soup pork dumplings to start which were excellent. I went with the spicy mutton,...soooo soft and tasty. My grand had the American Chinese General Tso chicken….very moist and not too sweet. We both enjoyed the lobster fried rice. I definitely recommend the restaurant and will go back to the jewel on 42nd street.

The approach is unencumbered by trends in modern Korean food. The flavors are direct and the textures are intelligently layered. Our server was impressively informed and spirited. I would absolutely recommend Naro for anyone interested in well-harmonized Korean ingredients.

The food was really good. A few of the items we ordered were amazing, and some of the items could use a little more salt in it, but it was definitely a great place. Make sure to have a reservation because the place is really busy.

I’m very happy with my decision to go to Lagos. I celebrated my 36 birthday. There, the staff was very accommodating, the food was amazing, the vibe was very chill, but grown and sexy. I definitely will be going back.
