Naim Restaurant

Best Known For

Moroccan snapper, baked in fragrant tomato and fresh turmeric sauce with roasted cauliflower, pearl couscous and toasted pine nuts.

Contemporary dining with a modern Middle Eastern approach attracts Paddington locals through the doors at Naim on Collingwood Street. Meaning happiness in Hebrew, Naim is all about friends catching up over a Turkish Martini in surroundings of polished wood floors, softly glowing bulb lighting and a wall display of boutique wines. Housed in an old Queenslander full of character and comfy couches to chill out on, be prepared for a creative menu serving up brunch tempters like Tunisian-style baked eggs, tomato and capsicum sauce, Kalamata olives, white beans, labneh and Turkish bread. Evening diners can share a mezze board to begin, before tantalising mains such as curried chicken and chickpea stew with crispy Brussels sprouts, golden raisin chutney and mustard green pesto.
