    Most of the starters were more spicy than the average. The fries were oily. The noise level was extremely annoying!! There was a very loud group that was obviously disturbing everyone in the restaurant but no one asked them to tone it down a little bit to respect the others.

    We went early and had happy hour drinks and small plates that were very good. Our waitress was very helpful as it was our first time there. I also forgot my lock for my bike and the hostess was extremely accommodating and let me put it in the front lobby. It was a great local restaurant and I would definately go back. I will also tell my friends about it.

    I had to lower my points because of the tiny gnats or fruit flies buzzing around my table. Everything else was great, but those little guys definitely put a damper on my mood and felt a bit icky. I understand these infestations can be tricky to manage, and I appreciate your efforts!

    Food was very underwhelming. Quite flavorless and bland. Can cook better at home. Ambiance is nice and service is OK

    I've eaten a few times at Azhar and everytime our group has enjoyed the meal, the ambience and the service. We had the hummus, shrimp and steak and the pistachio chou for dessert. All of the food was delicious and presented really well and at the right cadence to keep the tables full and lively but not too full. Highly recommend.

    Thank you Nash! We're so glad you've been enjoying your dining experiences with us; we look forward to hosting you again and again!

    Good experience overall. Service was attentive, and accommodating. Food was ok. Found the saffron rice to be a bit under seasoned, and striploin was a bit overcooked. Dips, pitas, and chicken were all very good.
