I actually discovered Azara by chance! I ran into a woman on the street who asked if I had been…read morethere, knowing I'm a foodie. I told her I hadn't, and she highly recommended it, especially the grilled branzino. She said, "You have to try it," and after that recommendation, I knew that was going to be my dinner! I'm so glad I listened. The branzino was cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. The mashed potatoes were whipped beautifully, the plantains were delicious, and the grilled spinach was incredibly flavorful with just the right amount of garlic... exactly how I like it! The restaurant itself is super quaint and cozy, and the staff were warm, friendly, and helpful. My date had the lamb chops and absolutely loved them as well. It was such a lovely dining experience, and I left completely satisfied. I'll definitely be going back before I leave New York. If you're looking for a cozy spot with delicious, flavorful food and great service, I highly recommend Azara!

I enjoyed my first visit to Azara Kitchen. I originally wanted the snapper grilled, but it's only…read moreavailable fried, so I went with the branzino. It was cooked well but could have used a little more seasoning. The complimentary sauces helped, but didn't quite make up for it. I swapped the asparagus for broccoli rabe, and theirs was fantastic. Our waitress mentioned it gets mixed reactions, but honestly, that may just be broccoli rabe being naturally bitter. If you're a fan, get it. The rice was buttery and flavorful too. My companion's lamb chops were also very well seasoned. The fresh ginger juice was delicious, with ginger as the star and the pineapple and mint more subtle. Our waitress was helpful, though an internal miscommunication meant I didn't find out they were out of the mashed potatoes I ordered until after our food arrived. Also, bring a layer! Even on a high-80s day, that AC was COLD, and I normally love a cool room. Overall, there were a few misses, but I'm open to returning at some point, especially to explore the Italian side of the menu given the chef/owner spent time studying in Italy.

I'm surprised I've never written a review for this place considering how often I come here. It's…read moreeasily one of my favorite neighborhood spots in Harlem. The vibe is chill, relaxed, and very neighborhood-friendly. Even when it's busy, it never feels overwhelming, and they're usually very accommodating with walk-ins. The service is also some of the best I've experienced in Harlem. My go-to is the roasted duck, which is consistently excellent. It's cooked medium to medium-rare and comes with mango, onions, vegetables, and greens. Easily one of my favorite dishes in the neighborhood. The drinks are great too. I recently had the Nas, their take on a Manhattan, and it was incredibly smooth--one of the best whiskey cocktails I've had in a while. Overall, 10/10. A hidden gem on Lenox between 119th and 120th and definitely one of the best spots in Harlem.

Came in for NY Restaurant week! Ordered the Sage Knees and the Crime of Passion for our drinks…read more(both were enjoyed). We both had Brussel Sprouts, good, but the bites without the sauce did taste like bland Brussel sprouts. I had the lamb ribs, very good. They do warn you before that the ribs have a bit of fat on them, I think in the context of NY restaurant week I'm happy to pay it but as a solo entree, the amount of fat vs meat would have annoyed me. My friend had the duck, she enjoyed it. But it is very much salad with a side of duck, I believe she had 6 pieces of duck (pictured) and then a mango, arugula and onion salad. Dessert was very good, but I do hope those are not the usual portion sizes and maybe they just served smaller for NY restaurant week. Which I really didn't mind as I was full from the entree and sprouts. Servers were really nice, this place seems to have its regulars and a nice garden sitting area towards the back. Would overall recommend

The Edge's menu purports to blend "the flavors of Jamaica & England with a little New York…read moreattitude." My friend and I were excited to try the Jamaican side of the menu. We started with drinks. She ordered the passion fruit margarita and I went with the tamarind mango margarita. We were told the margaritas are made with a wine based cocktail instead of tequila or mezcal since the restaurant only serves beer and wine. We've never had margaritas made with wine before, which should have been our first clue to skip the cocktails. Unfortunately we were feeling adventurous and neither of us ended up enjoying our drinks. Mine lacked any hint of tamarind, had a subtle mango flavor, and tasted more like a mocktail. My friend said hers tasted like a tart beverage. We ordered the codfish fritters to start and they were a delicious appetizer. We shared the jerk chicken and pancakes and the plantain crusted crab cakes for our entrees. The pancakes were light and fluffy. Unfortunately the jerk chicken was a huge letdown. We were expecting authentic Jamaican flavors. As someone who grew up eating jerk chicken and has enjoyed the real thing in Jamaica numerous times, this wasn't it! I was also surprised to be served a chicken cutlet instead of an actual breast, thigh, or wing portion of chicken. We did not enjoy the chicken. The crab cakes were well done and topped with a stale tasting chip. The fried plantains that accompanied the dish were mushy. We did not enjoy this dish either. My friend ordered the housemade chocolate chip bread pudding, which she said had everything under the sun on it. She enjoyed it, but said it didn't taste like any bread pudding she had ever tasted. Overall, the restaurant's concept is cool, but not well executed. The service was good minus the delayed water glass refills. Unfortunately, the food and drinks were a huge disappointment!

If you want fast food do not come here because the vibe is the complete opposite. Our server was the sweetest guy ever! He felt like home, a soft, kind experience that actually made me feel great energy for the rest of my day. Sometimes all you need is kindness!! I got the potatoes and eggs and I really enjoyed the way they made the potatoes because they added things that other restaurants usually leave out to save money. Thank you for a health conscious plate with great veggies and flavors. I enjoyed my coffee and my mimosa. Everything was portioned great and the prices were reasonable. I went on a rainy day and even then the place looked clean and organized. Can't wait to go when I'm not in a rush! 10/10 recommend.

This place is good for what it is. They have a very limited number of dishes (about 12 on display…read moreto choose from) and they are all vegan. Most of the "meat" is soy protein, and the other dishes are plain. You pay by the pound (as of July 2022 it is $9.49/lb) and this can add up quite fast especially if you get things like noodles or chickpeas. They were out of their eggplant dish, which is really the only reason you should come here if you can! That is probably the best tasting item they have. Would I come here again? Probably if I'm in a pinch and just want solid food that doesn't blow me away.

Decided to try an order for delivery via GrubHub and compare dishes with two separate noodles, based on what they recommended for each best for delivery: Beijing Bolo with a fermented black bean ground pork sauce, a.k.a. Zhejiang Mien, including Size #2 pressed noodles thick like udon, scallions, and cilantro, plus Cold Sesame Noodles utilizing handpulled lagman. Both dishes I ordered medium spicy. The Beijing Bolo came in a bowl, while I needed to plate the Cold Sesame dish. Both were flavorful with tender noodles. Next time, more likely to go in person over delivery, and explore other dishes on their menu. It's a great option particularly for this neighborhood! Definitely would recommend trying out The Handmade Noodle!

I realized the other day I was long overdue to acknowledge my adoration for one of the five…read moreboroughs' best restaurants - FIELDTRIP (original and premiere location in Harlem) - so a friend and I had lunch here on 4/25/26. Read on if you desire genuine knowledge and only dine out with intention. First, and most importantly, shouts to Myles and the team working this day. The salmon in my Jerk Salmon Bowl and my friend's Atlantic Salmon Bowl was flaky, tender, juicy, and perfect. The rices (white with Jerk, black forbidden with Atlantic) confirmed and celebrated what Chef JJ Johnson wrote in his must-have book The History of Rice. This is to say there is no rice like FIELDTRIP rice: soft, sturdy, sweet, savory, herby, attaches to sauce and protein and vegetables when you want it to, remains on its own when you simply want to enjoy it by itself. The plantains and greens that accompany are ridonkulous icing on the salmon sundae. If you aren't a fan of Brussels sprouts, you likely have good reasons. And, you owe it to yourself to order Crispy Brussels. Besides being cooked so they are toothsome, textured, and still sweet, they're quartered or sixthed, which makes them easier to enjoy and perfect carriers for the crispy bits that top them. I love oxtail. To enjoy this rarely served beef element in a perfectly wrapped and fried egg roll added to my adoration. After bite one, I literally unwrapped my half to see how the shredded meat was coexisting. No saucing was necessary, though the Avocado Cilantro and New Jack Sticky BBQ (both of which were enjoyed by me via spoon) would have enhanced the roll most righteously. Lastly, when you dine in or take away from FIELDTRIP, you need Nana's Bread. It is what you might enjoy if a freshly made flour tortilla, naan, pita, and focaccia met, joined, and were put through a presser. I would dip and dredge Nana's Bread in everything. Your next meal needs to come from FIELDTRIP. Period.
