Fabulous service, great atmosphere. We had share plates - shrimp taco's (a bit salty), risotto (a bit too starchy) smoked meat sliders (great) and kung pao chicken (too sweet). Overall a fun evening.

Stumped on what to order? Azarias provides a top ten list to guide you through the process. The first half of this post will focus on these popular dishes.
Topping the list is the spicy shrimp tacos ($15), a let-down unless you enjoy overly battered seafood that hasn’t been drained properly. The only saving grace was the shrimp’s large size, lending itself to stay plump and juicy. But then it’s laden with oil and a “spicy” sauce that’s surely just Frank’s Red Hot out of the bottle. Plain cabbage with a bit of corn lines the bottom of the flour tortilla, hardly the salsa fresca you’d expect as described on the menu.
Go with the #2 option instead: Montreal smoked meat sliders ($10). Overlooking the dense bun, the thickly sliced meat was tender incorporating enough fat for taste without getting heavy. Served warm, you get a bit of spice with each bite and despite being full flavoured, the smoked meat wasn’t too salty and went well with the mustard. Paired with a juicy pickle wedge, it’s a dish that could make a Jewish deli proud.
When Brussels sprouts ($9) are done right, they are so good. Azarias’ version is fine but runs into the pitfall of relying too heavily on other ingredients – in their case, sun dried tomatoes and bacon. Since both are such strong flavours, the actual sprouts get
Best restaurant in the Kingsway, great sharing options and great food. Montreal smoked meat sliders, short rib, cauliflower mash are some favourites. Can be busy so call to reserve a table.

Celebrated my birthday here on Saturday night, there were seven in our party. The service and staff were amazing. We had a humongous variety of tasty food choices. We had a very good time, although it was a wallet clearing brawl. I would recommend this west end tapas restaurant.
Service is great. Food is even better. We've been many times. Always a great time. Our favourite place!
Smoked meat sliders, fish tacos & lamb burgers were our favorites. I especially loved the New Zealand Map Maker wine. Great night out with friends!
Perfect spot on Bloor. The owner is a great guy and the food incredible. Been there several times and never a regret. Try the catfish tacos, cod cakes or spicy pork strips. You'll love it all.
A great new addition to the evergrowing etobicoke community; This new tapas lounge fills my stomach with Italian joy.. Recommended for large groups or small romantic eves. Great value and portion; amazing service to top it off. Try the lava cake for dessert mmmm
Etobicoke is not my neighbourhood, but it was the compromise between Toronto and Mississauga where I met up with friends from high school to catch up. I chose Azaria’s Restaurant based on positive reviews online and their menu, which had great variety. Our group stopped by on a Monday night around 8pm, not exactly peak hours but quite a few tables were occupied.
While at taste of the Kingsway, I stumbled upon Azarias. The menu has a bit of everything though mainly focuses on seafood. Large windows flat panel televisions give the front
What an amazing experience! The food was fantastic, service impeccable and atmosphere so much fun. Sharing plates to try new things and quality was top notch! Had the best time!
If you want a lovely tapas style eating experience and the ability to dine outside in this covid era, please give this upscale casual place a go. They have the street set up next to the side walk but it's very lovely and a great atmosphere especially when the lanterns come on in the evening✨️. The staff are amazing and the owner is engaging, friendly and will go above and beyond to make your service top notch and ensure you are enjoying your meal from start to finish. The food is stellar and pleasing for both the eye and stomach ( so good you won't want to share). The drinks menu is very extensive and the cocktails
Definitely try the Duck tacos, Kung pao chicken, short ribs and the Kingway sliders!!! . The vanilla cheesecake with strawberry coulis is 🤤.
It is a little $$$ but well worth it for the quality food and service.
I usually do a thorough research before I visit a place but was super hungry on my way from fitness centre and randomly stopped at this place. Great little spot with delicious and creative menu. I tried their beef carpaccio, duck and cod tacos. Check them out if you are nearby!
Was at a friends who raved about the food and ordered take out for dinner.
WOW. Was impressed by everything and considering it was take away wasn’t even very hot when we sat down to eat it.
Can’t wait to actually eat at restaurant when food is served after it’s made!!
Favourites truffle fries, Montreal smoked meat sliders and Kung pao chicken and shrimp tacos! Lobster and shrimp gnocchi was great would have been better with a little extra parmesan and pepper (that u always get at restaurants)! Even the dog was salivating!
Had an amazing dinner here. The owner (I think) greeted us so nicely when we came in and gave us options of where we’d like to sit. Menu consists of lots of smaller plates that are meant to be shared by the table, and I love this idea because we got to try multiple items in one meal. Also highly recommend the cheese fondue! All the service staff were very nice and attentive. Would love to come back here again.
We had an amazing dinner here. The lady at the door greeted us with the smile when we came and gave us options of where we’d like to sit. Then explained what the "Menu ordering concept" is at this restaurant.You order several smaller plates that are meant to be shared by the table. Love this idea! Everything we tried was superior. Not only the delicious taste, but also the food presentation on the plate which showed us they really care. All the service staff were very nice and attentive. We will definitely come back here again.
The place is so nice and cozy! Staff is super friendly and goes above and beyond. Amazing place with family history, delicious food and friendly atmosphere. The food was so good, that I was only able to take a picture of the dessert, before it was devoured :)
Certainly will be back!
Nice atmosphere (a little loud), good service, and food was good. Favourite was the risotto, scallops and the desserts.
