Best Authentic Restaurants in Pigtown

I wanted to try Cazbar for a long time, but then during Covid, sadly, it closed. I was thrilled to see the restaurant had reopened, and I wasn’t disappointed in the very least. The food, the service ambience were all excellent. The belly dancer couldn’t have been more lovely and very entertaining. What a delight!

We had an excellent experience at Azumi while celebrating my husband’s belated birthday! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make the evening special. The ambiance was elegant and perfect for a celebratory dinner. The food was absolutely phenomenal — each dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. The sushi was some of the best we’ve ever had, and the cocktails were crafted to perfection. What stood out the most was the exceptional service. The team was attentive, friendly, and made sure every detail was taken care of. They even added thoughtful touches to make my husband’s birthday extra memorable. Thank you, Azumi, for an unforgettable evening. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this restaurant for any special occasion!

Had a wonderful time and the food was delicious. We had to wait a bit for our table even though we had reservations. The staff bought us a round of drinks a provided us with appetizers. They were really awesome on a busy holiday night. The restaurant was decorated beautifully. All around a great experience.

Lots of extra little touches that made the dishes special: the foamy mignonette on the oysters, the crunchy bites and pickled mushrooms on the beef tartare. Pre-pandemic, table side dishes such as classic Caesar salad and duck a la presse were on the menu- we can understand not having them all the time, but hopefully they’re not gone for good.

The food was delicious and reminded me of a wonderful taste from visiting the Middle East! The staff were very courteous and the ambiance was perfect for celebrating my wife’s birthday! Thank you! We can’t wait to come again!
