A warm, contemporary Middle Eastern restaurant set in a converted old worker’s cottage atop one of Paddington’s steep hills. “Naïm” means happiness in Hebrew, and the all-day menu delivers: an east-meets-west spread of Israeli, Tunisian, Moroccan and modern-Australian dishes, from Turkish-delight waffles in the morning to hearty tagines and mezze at night, with boutique wines and Turkish martinis. Polished wood floors, soft lighting and a genuinely happy vibe; plenty for vegetarian, vegan, GF and halal diners.
