Azotea — Restaurant in Turin

We returned to this charming restaurant after 1 year. In our former visit, everything was magic: ambience, service, cocktails (+++) and food. As for food, it was tasty and portions were adequate. On this occasion, we regret to admit that, even though ambience, cocktails and service remained great, food was rather disappointing...portions were halved almost (!) and the flavour questionable and all but gone...rather disappointing indeed. Also, scarce attention of the staff: one main course arrived on our table cold (should have been hot), with barely cooked pasta and incomplete dressing (!!!). It is true that they apologise profusely and did not charge it, but at the same time also visually they could have spotted that something was wrong...and, to finish with, the value for money was, consequently, suboptimal. A pity! We'll not go there a 3rd time, I...

where to start… I had an incredible culinary experience here. Azotea specializes in nikkei cuisine, which blends japanese food with mostly peruvian and other south american influences. they offer a tasting menu but we went for the “a la carte” option instead.

our super friendly waiter (wish I had asked his name) guided us on what to order so we could try a bit of everything. he nailed it. we had oysters, ceviche, empanadas, dumplings… every dish was beautifully presented and they explained each one to us.

cocktails were creative and tasty. the lighting, decor and tableware? so carefully chosen. soft music. and I can’t stop mentioning the menu which design was SO good. yes it’s pricey, but you’re paying for both quality and experience. I really hope I can come...

Azotea is a true gem, and it's no wonder it's featured in the Michelin Guide. From the moment you step in, you receive a warm welcome that sets the tone for the evening. The vestiaire service is a nice touch, adding to the overall excellent experience.

Their menu is a delightful journey of flavors. The ceviche, croquetas, and oysters are all mouthwatering, and the cocktails are simply exceptional.

The location itself is a treat – the decoration and ambiance create the perfect setting for a memorable dining experience. The staff, who are friendly and English-speaking, make you feel right at home.
