About London Naru Korean Deli
On Lovibond Lane near Greenwich DLR station, London Naru Korean Deli is a Korean takeout restaurant built around a menu of 10 different gimbap varieties alongside traditional namul and homemade kimchi. The kitchen also turns out bibimbap, kimchi stew, beef bulgogi, and Korean fried chicken in spicy and non-spicy versions, plus dumplings, kimchi pancakes, and chicken katsu kimbap. A pork belly on rice dish comes with namul on the side, and the counter stocks dry Korean pantry goods for takeaway alongside vegetarian and vegan menu options. Seating is limited to a few tables and chairs given the small size of the space, so most orders are placed for collection. Drinks are kept simple, running to standard soft drinks like coke and Fanta. Orders are taken in-store or by phone, on a walk-in basis with no reservations.

Customer Review Summary
Korean Fried Chicken draws the most repeated praise, called "fantastic" and recommended in both spicy and non-spicy versions. Close behind, reviewers point to the spicy pork bokkeum, sea bass Korean sushi, bibimbap, and kimchi stew, with several also mentioning crispy dumplings and kimchi pancakes. Many describe the fish and ingredients as consistently fresh, the portions as generous, and the owners and staff as welcoming, with more than one reviewer mentioning free extras or genuine hospitality. A few note the space itself is small with limited seating, and one found the bulgogi "just unmarinated stir fried beef" despite well-cooked meat. One reviewer describes a takeaway order arriving in poor condition, with a smashed bibimbap and a stew containing only "1 lonely piece of beef" and no seafood, calling it a waste of money, though this stands apart from the otherwise consistent praise for freshness and flavor across the other reviews.

“Homely unpretentious Korean food in a little cafe featuring common dishes such as bibimbap, kimchi stew and beef bulgogi. Generous portions with delicious sauces which are always the highlights of Korean cuisine. I especially like the namul that's part of the pork belly on rice dish --- which proper Korean meal should be without namul, after all? 🙂 Warm and quick service. The location was perfect too - just a stone's throw from the DLR station.”

“worst takeaway i have ever ordered in london which costs £42 packaging is really poor and food arrived in a horrible condition which kills any appetite. bibimbap looks smashed and not tasty. stew is with 1 lonely piece of beef and no seafood and heaps of mashed tofu and onions/chives. just spicy and sweet without rice and to me looks like a pure waste of money and calories!”

“Fantastic friendly service, guys are very welcoming! Food is one of the best in this area! Kimchi stew quite spacey for me but my partner loved it! My girls enjoyed crispy dumpings and we tried kimchi pancakes, and little selection of sushi. All of it was stunning, fully fragrant, fresh and the price definitely didn't make us poorer. Thank you so much!”

“Fantastic Korean Fried Chicken!! This was absolutely delicious and is definitely now my favourite outside of central London. We also ordered the sashimi platter which was fresh and delicious. The bulgogi was however unfortunately just unmarinated stir fried beef. While the beef itself was cooked perfectly, it just didn't have the marinade. Overall though, this was a great experience and I will definitely come again!!”
