NARO is a contemporary Korean fusion fine-dining restaurant in NYC. Created by the team behind Atoboy and the two-Michelin-starred Atomix, it focuses on the subtle and delicate flavors of Korean cuisine, drawing inspiration from traditional ingredients, techniques, and classic dishes throughout Korean history.

The name “NARO” carries dual meanings: it references South Korea’s first space launch vehicle to reach low Earth orbit in 2009, as well as the Korean phrase meaning “through me” or “because of me,” symbolizing positive influence and transformation. Rooted in the Korean aesthetic concept of harmony with nature, NARO reinterprets Korean joy and aesthetics through its cuisine and cultural ambiance. The restaurant showcases modern Korean creativity in its unique dishes and innovative interior, crafted in collaboration with Korean artists.
