Nawrish Restaurant - (Near Tower Hamlets, london)

4 /5 Yousef Akram: Food is great , one of the better Somalian restaurants in the area for sure. Only thing let it down was service. If you sit downstairs just be sure to let them know as we were forgotten about and had to chase our food.

5 /5 Shay Matters: I had an incredible dining experience at Nawrish! This Somali restaurant truly knows how to treat its guests. The service was outstanding from start to finish. I loved that they provide complimentary soup and salad to start, it was such a welcoming touch. The food itself was absolutely to die for; every dish was packed with flavor. Dont leave without trying the spiced tea, it’s delicious and perfectly brewed. Overall, everything was 10/10 and very affordable. I highly recommend it!

5 /5 Iroh Eats: A solid Somali spot with a good selection of tasty food. We went for the XL platter which came with the lamb shank, chicken and beef steak. Not quite as good as Al kahf if I’m honest but at a slightly lower price point so can’t complain. Would come again

5 /5 A R: recently visited Nawrish on Commercial Road, and it left a strong impression. From the moment you step in, the place feels welcoming, with simple décor, clean tables, and staff who are genuinely attentive. The vibe isn’t flashy, but it’s comfortable and unpretentious, which actually suits the restaurant’s style perfectly. The food is the real highlight. I tried the lamb shank, and it was cooked to perfection, tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The spices were well-balanced, giving it depth without overwhelming the meat. The chicken and rice dish was equally impressive. The chicken was moist and flavorful, paired with rice that had a subtle, aromatic seasoning. It’s the kind of homey, satisfying meal that makes you feel like you’re getting a real taste of something authentic. One thing that stood out was the chili sauce. It had just the right kick, spicy enough to excite your taste buds but not so fiery that it overpowers the dish. It complemented the lamb and chicken perfectly, adding an extra layer of flavor without stealing the show. Portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable for the quality. Whether you’re popping in for a quick bite or a full meal, Nawrish delivers. For anyone on Commercial Road looking for hearty, well-prepared food with a little spice, this place is a solid choice. I’ll definitely be coming back.

5 /5 Amen Mengistu: The food was really tasty with generous quantities. The service was great and the staff was very kind. I will definitely go back.
