Love Azitra. Have been several times in the last few years for lunch with friends. The food is good; ambiance is attractive and soothing. It's a pretty place to eat. Service is attentive. I have had the spinach paneer, vegetable kofta and paneer tikka masala. All of them were very good. I love the bread. Go! You'll have a great meal. read more

Amazing staff! Super friendly and helpful! Ambiance of this restaurant is fantastic. The lentil soup had the right amount of spice and was very satisfying as was the Goni Manchurian (cauliflower)! And the chicken tikki masala was amazing! So rich with flavor and that garlic naan bread is to die for! I could eat it all day long read more

I ordered a 3 spice level for my vegetable biryani. Instant regret, it was too spicy. Had good service and the food was flavorful, just the wrong spice level. Portion size was smallish for the price. Would come again on a special occasion. The vibes were very upscale! read more

Brunch was great. We ordered off the brunch menu. Three dishes - which is plenty to share - and a special drink. For $33. Good deal. It was slow so we got excellent service. Food was delicious. read more

Mediocre at best... Came here on a holiday only to find out they weren't serving their lunch menu. Plus no one told us our table would be dinged a gratuity prior to showing up. We had five at our table... Servers were friendly. Food needed flavor and was super expensive. Portion size was not impressive for what you pay for. The bill came and seemed a little shady. The gratuity was added, then you're taxed on that amount. Save your money. read more

Lovely place! I enjoyed my dinner recently with a party of 6. We all got what we ordered, the food was delicious, they were attentive to gluten free needs, and splitting the bill was an easy process. My butter paneer was delicious! I also loved the garlic naan and the chicken tikka masala that I tried. Several members of our party were excited about the lamb on the menu. They also had a nice selection of mocktails and other nonalcoholic drinks. Highly recommend! read more

Had a delicious meal at Azitra with work colleagues. I enjoyed my dal makhni and the assortment of naans were great (garlic naan was my favorite though spinach, mushroom, and plain were all good). My cucumber salad was disappointing - basically no discernable dressing- hence the 4 star review. The wines were also a tad on the expensive side - $13 for an unmemorable rose. The ambiance is modern and the service is friendly. read more

High end Indian cuisine. I really enjoy Indian food, but I ordered the salmon tikka which was a high end take on the dish and it was a huge miss for me - dry salmon, small portion, disappointing. But I also tried some appetizers which were legitimately good. Overall I think I enjoy home style low key takes on Indian food more than what Azitra offers. read more

Visited Azitra Indian Culinary Nirvana with friends for a birthday dinner. This was my first time here and the atmosphere is really cute. Has a nice ambiance about it and the food was very tasty. I ordered the seared coconut scallops and the sauce they sat in was so good. Nice sized scallops also. I will definitely be going back. The waiter was helpful and patient with us ordering as well.

Friend and I had a celebratory birthday lunch today. Had a reservation for 11:30, when the restaurant opens, but place didn't get too busy til about 12:15. Dining room is very attractive with a separate bar area. I ordered appetizer of fried shaved Brussels sprouts and garlic naan accompanied by raita. Both were hot and delicious. My friend ordered goat curry and I had shrimp tikka masala. Both were accompanied by steamed white rice and a basket of hot naan for mopping up the sauces. Delicious! Both entrees were accompanied by either soup or salad. The soup of the day was lentil,which I ordered and was looking forward to...it arrived luke warm and quite thin/watery. Can't recommend it. My friend did better with the green salad with mango dressing. My friend was surprised with a free birthday dessert: cheesecake with berry garnish. Nice way to finish a good meal. Service was slow throughout the meal. At peak lunch time the dining room was half full. Please pay more attention! When we finally got the check, it was nearly 2 pm (2 1/2 hrs after we arrived) --glad we didn't have to go back to work. Only downside to a very enjoyable lunch. read more

Azitra is the premier Indian restaurant in the Briar Creek area. This is an upscale place that is perfect for a date night. Staff was friendly and on top of things. The Ghobi Manchurian is a must have. The Chicken Tikka Masala was delicious with all the hallmarks of a delicious Indian dish. The prices were moderate and the portions were generous. I would highly recommend Azitra for your next date night. So gents grab a button down and ladies break out that little black dress and treat yourselves. read more

Chicken hariyali ? Not well versed in Indian food. That being said it was fabulous. Hubby had surf and turf Indian style. Service was also top notch. Next time in Raleigh I know where to go to eat read more

Overly lovely aesthetics. Welcoming, politeand helpful staff. The manager came around interacting with customers and asking about the experience. It was nice to meet the Manager and receive feedback about the menu. My server was David who did a great job serving, making suggestions, and checking in very often, almost too often (but it was appreciated). David stayed on top of things! I ordered appetizers. I enjoyed the kabob skewer appetizer. A good protein offering that I thought was flavorful. The chicken was tender. The shrimp tasted good with simple seasoning that didn't overpower the shrimp taste. The lamb could be improved. The flavor was that of lamb. The downside is that I did think it was a bit too chewy. Gobi Manchurian was as expected and what I'm used to. Very good! The portions of the appetizers were very small I do understand this to be a higher-end Indian restaurant. I overly enjoyed the Limoncello cake on the dessert sampler. Very moist and has the right amount of sweetness. The other dessert items were good acquired tastes but I can not recommend them. I would dine at Azitra again. Overall, great experience. read more

When I first sat down and took a look at the wine list, I was hopeful for a good meal. I ordered samosa as appetizer and per recommendation the sea bass as main plus an order of chili garlic naan. First the good. The sea bass was flavorful even though I asked for 4/5 spice level. It's tangy, buttery. On the opposite were the samosa and naan. The samosa was disappointing. I had better home made They were made too far ahead thus lacks moisture inside. Something got mushed together and fried. Naan was meant to be soft and able to soak up all the flavorful sauce on the plate. Instead, they looked and tasted as reheated naan. They were not spongy, porous, but more like thin crust pizza or pitas (see pictures). So I questioned if they were made to order. Service was okay. I waited for sometime before someone offered to take my order. Btw, the restaurant was not busy, probably at 40% capacity. The decor of the restaurant was pleasant. However, I was disappointed when I visited the men's room. Did they run out of $$$ to close up the hole above the mirror and paint the area properly? read more

Whoo. Bring a big Wallet. And some iron clad tastebuds because you will feel the heat in both places. The staff is nice and attentive and I assume benefit from the high price tag due to their care for the diners. They definitely pay attention. Sort of white glove service. I do think the quality and quantity of the food has changed slightly. Not for the worst, but not exactly the most outrageously drop dead fantastice either. Each time I visit, I come away wishing for more. But as a regular, we still visit, but a little less due to the cost. Once I mentioned our dining companion, a stone cold, hard regular from years and years and years.... that it was her birthday.... (a big one). It was nice to see they joined in on the celebration. Thanking them for that. I think it is best for the budget to visit during lunch. The outdoor patio is nice, but if you have long legs...due to the design of the tables...lends to some uncomfortable dining. read more

Azitra - Ahhhh divine - Indian Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

We used to love this place with good food and great drinks, but it has lost its shine and tonight's visit will be our last. Simply put, the food was mediocre. They served us this really strange daily chaat that was just chopped fruit and puffed rice with tamarind on top. It was inedible, and they did take it off the bill when we asked. We also ordered palak paneer, chana masala, and dal makhani with onion and mango chutneys, raita, and garlic naan. The dinner portions were very small. The cheese in the palaak paneer was hard and dried out. The dal was grainy. The chana masala was diluted with chunks of potatoes. The chutneys were in big portions (almost equivalent in size to the meals), but were missing something. The mango chutney was actually a bit mealy. The naan was hard and dry. We searched for something good to say about this meal, but came up empty. Even the tamarind margarita didn't hit the mark. The service and kitchen were extremely slow. The restaurant was mostly empty, but we only saw our waiter twice and at the end of the meal found out he left early. Such a disappointing night out. We have gotten used to wonderful food at Lime & Lemon and suggest giving them a try. read more

The food was amazing. I had the Chicken Tikka Masala, but tasted a couple other dishes and they all had incredible flavor. Spice levels are high so recommend going with a 1 if you don't like spicy. The service was excellent. The waiter and manager checked on us multiple times and refilled the rice. read more

We come here often and have always been so happy with our experience! Azitra has a very nice, upscale interior that is wonderful for date night, or taking out of town visitors. The service is always wonderful as well, last time I got the crab masala which is WONDERFUL! You can adjust the spicyness level as well. I got the cobbler sangria as well which was delicious, I could've had a few more!! Overall, great place with consistently tasty food. Highly recommend! read more

I really enjoyed dining at Azitra. The service was attentive, kind and courteous. The ambiance is modern and upscale and Azitra truly offers a modern Indian cuisine dining experience in Brier Creek. The cocktails are excellent and the menu is unique. There is something for everyone to enjoy from seafood to briyani. My friend and fellow foodie extraordinaire suggested we check the restaurant out for dinner during the week. Upon arrival the restaurant was not crowded and few people were dining or seated at the bar. The staff were very attentive and polished. We were seated at a booth where I really enjoyed the white crocodile faux leather booths. Very posh. Indian food is one of my favorites, I was no stranger to the menu offerings but had a hard time deciding. My friend decided to try a few appetizers and we sampled each others with cocktails. We had the gobi Manchurian cauliflower, Kabob assorted skewers, scallops and garlic naan. We ordered martinis with the bubbles presentation. I ordered the lemon garden with vodka and lycheetini with Gin. Both excellent. Nick our waiter made it special for us with the bubbles gun. Unfortunately a few of the appetizers we had did not blow me away. My favorite being the scallops and garlic naan. The scallops were meaty, juicy and seared to perfection. Well done. For dessert we enjoyed the sampler but our favorite of the trio was the limoncello marscapone cake. Devine. Nick was our waiter and Ashish the Assistant Manager provided excellent service. Always checking in to offer a drink or answer a question. Nick was always willing to make a suggestion about a menu item or offer more to enjoy. I will absolutely be back to enjoy the service, cocktails and celebrate a special occasion. The restaurant is upscale, so you should expect the prices to reflect that. Plan ahead financially. read more

We were intrigued by the fancier names and details on the menu and had high expectations. Not sure if the same chef got them all their accolades on the wall. Being Indian, I can atleast comment on the food and the way it was cooked. Not great food. We had a decent size group and we ordered different entrees but the Non-Veg items were not even averagely prepared, taste was not good at all. The portions were very small for the price they charged. The ambience is very nice though. read more

We tried Azitra for the first time last night. My husband had the butter chicken and garlic naan and I had the vegetables in coconut curry sauce and vegan roti. The food was delicious. They have a great selection of drinks and cocktails too - one of the best selections I have seen in terms of diversity. People who tended to us were kind and respectful and one of them helped me choose a very unique cocktail which was decent but did not match my flavor preference. Obviously not his fault. The reason I am only giving a 4 star though is that the service was incredibly slow. The food and drinks came out quickly but after that neglect pretty much set in - no offer to refill the water glasses (I ordered a 1 in intensity heat but to me it tasted more like a 4, so I was on fire), no offer to refill the rice, no offer to buy more drinks. We then waited forever for boxes and the check. They did seem ro be short staffed but they obviously are popular so they should consider more people. We will probably be back at some point. Thank you. read more

We had dinner at Anitra a few months ago, overall food was very well prepared and cooked, you will find materials like fish and seafood the lower end Indian restaurants do not normally use. The service was excellent. Overall cost is high so we will stick with other Indian restaurants to satisfy our weekly craving of Indian food, only go to Azitra for special occasions. read more

Azitra offers possibly the finest Indian cuisine in the Triangle. Favorite entrees are Chicken Tikka Masala, Vindaloo, and Lamb Shank. Best mutton stew I've ever tasted. Service is excellent.

i used to come to azitra years ago, when i was a kid, and order their palak paneer. i never ordered anything else because i was obsessed with their palak paneer. now years later, perusing the rest of their menu, i'm really pleased to see that it's unique among indian restaurants in the area - beyond the butter chicken and paneer makhani, there's some really interesting things on the menu! i ordered the kurkure brussels and vegetable malai tadka with the palak malai kulcha for takeout. everything was absolutely delicious. the chili honey complemented the fried brussels sprouts really well, and everything stayed nice and crispy. i really enjoyed this dish. the malai tadka was also really nice - the combination of the mughlai cream sauce and the tadka worked well. the kulcha was good, too. the only reason i knocked down a star is that the prices are kinda outrageous, so it's not someplace i could go back regularly. for special occasions though, i'd recommend azitra! great food, and from what i saw of the decor, that looked nice as well. :) read more

We were very excited to try this highly rated restaurant. Walking in, we were impressed with the ambiance. Our waiter was also very attentive. Unfortunately, these were the only good qualities of the restaurant. The food left so much to be desired. The appetizers we ordered were the crispy Brussel sprouts, the paneer shashlik, and the chaat of the day. The crispy Brussel sprouts were delicately fried had a balanced flavor. The paneer, however, bland and barely cooked. The "chaat of the day", if you can call it that, was just avocado and corn with tamarind. At first, they forgot to add the corn in this simple 3 ingredient dish. When it finally returned as described, it was clawingly sweet and unseasoned. Unfortunately the least enjoyable dish I've ever tried at a restaurant. Our entrees were the kurkure bhindi and the soya chap. These came with rice. We also ordered a side of papadum, which were a ridiculous $9 and only came with 4 pieces!! The bhindi had good flavor and was well seasoned. The soya chaap was very bland and had a weird smoky after taste. Overall, great ambiance. The owners would do well to hire a new chef to justify the prices listed for truly lackluster food. read more

Amazing spot. 1000/10. A great place for birthdays and dates as well. Great service, great atmosphere, and great food! I love a spot that you can come for a casual dinner or dress up to as well. They have both indoor and outdoor seating and a full bar. Everyone got something different and loved every single dish. The butter chicken (one of my favorite Indian dishes) was super creamy & flavorful and perfect with the rice and naan. Never a bad choice and absolutely loved theirs. The lamb chops were the star of the night and everyone who got them loved them. The lobster-crab meljol is one of their best dishes and was recommended to me by everyone, so if you like seafood I'm sure you'll be in love with this dish. This & the crab masala as well. My friend got the limoncello cake and said it was the best cake she had ever tried in her life and that she'd come back solely just for this cake. read more

This is one of the best Indian culinary experiences in Raleigh! Restaurant has a beautiful ambiance indoor and a lovely patio outside showcasing all the amazing herbs they grow and use for cooking. COVID precautions are spot on. We tried their brunch special which I highly recommend! Comes with your choice of mimosa/beer/mango lassi, appetizer, main course with naan and rice and dessert all for $21!! What a steal! For appetizers their gobi manchurian and koyla kabab are out of the world! Very delicious main course our favorite was methi malai kofta, shahi paneer, tal tarka and veg biryani. Desserts are to die for! I have never loved kheer, but theirs is like rabdi, sooo good! Do not miss their kulfi!! Service is fantastic, special thanks for Shreyansh for accommodating our family in the patio despite the rain! In short, you can't go wrong with any dish here! I can't wait to return. read more

We went on opening day of restaurant week and were not disappointed. On top of splitting a 3 course meal, we also got a side of masala sauce with naan. I would say the restaurant is more upscale and charges a bit more than other restaurants in the area but the food was still good, coming fresh and hot out of the kitchen. We were not asked to adjust the spice but it was just the right amount of us! For the 3 course, we got the duck appetizer, and the curry, where both meats were so tender and the flavors were strong. For dessert, they had an ice cream malt sandwich doused with sweet lentils which I love! The portion was a great amount, small but not too heavy. Service was good and food came out super quick. The ambience is nice as well. Despite being a little bit out of our price range, Azitra is a good place to splurge to get a good dining experience and Indian cuisine. read more

What started off as a strong experience became a giant disappointment. It's a lovely restaurant and bar. The service is attentive and excellent. Our cocktails quickly arrived and they were exceptionally tasty. Then things went downhill. Our appetizer the karara murgh was interesting but a little sweet. We had the equivalent of a bland tomato cream dish with pieces of chicken. At these prices, we expected a meaningful amount of flavor in our chicken tikka masala. Next our roti arrived which was burnt. This probably works for a certain restaurant audience in Raleigh but not for us. read more

Azitra is located in Brier Creek and is fancier than other Indian restaurants I have been to. I have heard it isn't "authentic" Indian but that didn't deter me. I had their dish with shrimp, scallops and fish inna tomato and coconut sauce. It was good and pretty spicy. Their naan is good too as is the rice. Azitra is pricier than your average Indian restaurant but if you like fine dining Indian food in a nice atmosphere I say give it a try. read more

Looked for lunch around Briar Creek and Azitra came up - the wife and I made it out together for less than $30 (not including tips / soft drinks). Lunch portion of butter chicken came with rice, nan & soup or salad. I wouldn't say it was exceptional, but it hit the spot and all was very palatable. I'd come back if in the neighborhood. Of note, the service was great: the staff made numerous visits back to our table to offer us more water and rice. read more
