" Unfortunately, my experience at Azul didn’t live up to the hype. The service was slow, and our meals took a long time to arrive. When they did, they were just okay. I had high expectations for the seafood, but it wasn’t as fresh as advertised. Not sure I would return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Azul since I've heard so many great things. The vibe was absolutely perfect, but the food didn't impress me as I expected. The tacos were good, but I've had better elsewhere. Service was okay, but it took a while to get our drinks. Overall, not bad but could improve in the food department. " (*Curated Review*)

" Azul has a great vibe! The patio area is perfect for summer nights. I visited with some friends for Happy Hour, and the drink specials were excellent. The nachos didn’t blow me away though; I expected them to be more generous with the toppings. Overall, it's a nice place for drinks, but I might skip the food next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" My dining experience at Azul was satisfactory. I enjoyed the selection of seafood and the lively music made for a fun evening. However, I found my dish to be overly sweet, which overshadowed the fresh flavors. I'd visit again to try some different items off the menu and perhaps get a more balanced dish. Service was friendly throughout our visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Azul was just okay. The food was average, and I expected something more authentic. The tacos I ordered were good but not standout. The noise level made conversation difficult, and it took longer than expected to get our drinks. Service staff were nice but seemed overwhelmed. Not sure if I would come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" The rooftop experience at Azul was breathtaking! I visited with my friends for a birthday celebration, and we couldn't have asked for a better venue. The seafood tacos were fresh and packed with flavor, while the tropical drinks were the perfect complement to our meal. Friendly service made the experience even better. We will definitely be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience during my last visit to Azul. The ambiance was lively and perfect for a night out, but the service was a bit slow, likely due to the crowd. My food was decent; I ordered the lobster empanadas which were flavorful but the portion could have been larger for the price. Overall, a nice place but I wish the service matched the vibes. " (*Curated Review*)
