"When it comes to appetizers, I have tried most of them and they are all delicious. During my most recent visit, my friends and I shared two appetizers. The Pakawara-e-badenjan, which is fried eggplant topped with yogurt and meat sauce, was a standout dish. The combination of flavors may seem unusual, but the tangy yogurt sauce complemented the seasoned tomato-based meat sauce perfectly. We also enjoyed the Buranee-kadu, a sautéed butternut squash dish topped with yogurt and meat sauce. The fusion of flavors in this dish was truly unique and delicious.
In addition to the appetizers, I would highly recommend trying the steamed dumplings at Azeen's. Both the mantu, a beef and herb dumpling, and the Aushak, a leek and scallion dumpling, are delicious and served with homemade yogurt-based sauces.
For the main course, we ordered dishes such as the Badenjan Challaw, lamb cooked with eggplants, onions, and tomatoes, and the Gulpi, a cauliflower stew cooked with ginger, onions, and tomatoes. While I enjoyed most of the dishes, there were a few that did not impress me as much. However, the chicken breast kabob was a standout, always moist and tender.
Overall, Azeen's offers a variety of menu items, including vegetarian options that are sure to please. Their vegetable dishes are especially flavorful and well-prepared. While the beef and lamb dishes can be hit or miss in terms of tenderness and juiciness, the Korma Challaw, a dish with meat, green peppers, onions, and tomatoes, is always a favorite.
For dessert, Azeen's offers Baklava, jelly, and rice pudding with pistachios and almonds. I personally prefer the rice pudding, as it is not overly sweet.
In conclusion, I am someone who enjoys trying new restaurants and cuisines, but I have found myself returning to Azeen's multiple times because of the excellent food and pleasant dining experience. I highly recommend checking it out for yourself!"
