just had a ladies lunch at Azie and while the food was tasty –the service was amateurish and VEEERRRY slow. It took 40 minutes to get our salads and miso soup. Coffee was served from a thermal carafe and the first cup was lukewarm. When the second cup, 20 minutes later was offered from the same carafe –of now cold coffee — we requested that they might think about replenishing the carafe with hot brew. I don’t eat sushi but had the honey chicken –standard chinese-food like fare. Those that ate the sushi liked it well enough. Friend had teriyaki salmon and said it was delish — but after trekking around to Azie’s hidden entrance at the back (with parking all reserved for Staples and the law firm in the building, not the restaurant) and spending close to 2 hours on a very modest lunch…. meh!

Was highly recommended to Azie on Main Villanova and was very disappointed with the food. I
ordered Sushi/Sashimi Sampler, the eel was gamey, the toro was chewy,and the yellow tail mushy.
I also ordered an eel and avocado roll which also was gamey tasting. I am a fan of sushi and sashimi but I would never again eat at this restaurant. The waiter Brian was not very helpful, all
he said was “We never had complaints before”. I was not offered a replacement or a response from
the chef. I was impressed with the decor but you cannot eat the decor. Better make sure your food is fresh and your sushi chefs know what they are doing considering it is raw fish.

Went to Azie last night on a whim, with no reservations, sat in the lounge, enjoyed the Salmon TatTar and the sashimi sampler with my dining partner. Both were superb paired with a glass of the house pinot. Service was respectable, though a tad slow with a full house. Atmosphere was good, though the big screen in the lounge was distracting, We’ll be going back.

If you consider Azie on Main and Nectar to be equitable, as my unrefined palette does, then definitely choose Nectar. Nectar has a more appealing overall atmosphere, better entrée and sushi selections, and significantly refined cocktail and dessert options.

Tried Azie on Main for the first time last night (Saturday). I was very impressed by both the decor and the food. The pan roasted halibut was very well prepared, as was the sushi. My only complaint (and that of everyone sitting around us) was that the staff was either entirely unprepared or else just flat-out understaffed. It seemed like every table around us complained about the service which was slow but friendly and seemingly knowledgeable. I will definitely return.
