Grear place! Service and the atmosphere were great, and the food was mostly great. The cold noodles were great. The eggplant (which came out second) was a little too sweet, which kind of messed up our pallets for the brisket, which had very mild flavors. Spring rolls were the highlight for me, and the bbq pork fried rice was good. I will definitely come again and try the buns next time.

The Taro chips were very addicting! We ended up getting two bowls!! I've never had chilled noodles. I thought they were interesting and tasted pretty good (I did add some extra chili oil because I love spicy food) The slow braised brisket dish was well done. The only thing I found was that it had just a little bit too much mint for me, but overall, the meat was super tender. Lastly, the fried chicken! It was delicious! The skin was super crispy. The house hot sauce that came with it was super flavourful.

Ok Google reader whoever you are. Prepare yourself for an essay (maybe I'll leave a TL;DR at the bottom so you can scroll down now I guess). I first visited this place back in 2018 for a friend's bday. She and her partner had their bdays around the same time so it was a basically a joint bday celebration. We ordered basically all the cocktails on the menu and we were also able to try most of the tapas on the menu at the time. The ones that stuck out to me back then were the truffle fried rice, smoked duck, fried chicken as well as their take on tofu. Oh and the cocktail that came w/ a pork belly skewer haha. It must've been a memorable experience because I never forgot about this resto (even though I forgot to write a review). Fast forward to present day. I recently came again for a private event. One of my close friends got married and instead of hosting his reception at a formal venue with festivities he and his wife opted for a lowkey, casual dinner here with all of their closest friends in attendance. We booked the whole resto (basically 2 long tables) for dinner time starting at 7pm. Idk what set menu(s) or special combo deal he arranged with the resto owners but I do recall it being very affordable for all the incredible food and drinks we were able to sample. I'd say we got to try around 80-85% of the whole menu (food & drinks combined)! The menu has obviously changed slightly since then but some of the classics have remained (like the fried chicken and the truffle fried rice). Of the appetizers/banchan the one that stood out surprisingly to our entire party was the brussel sprouts. I have no idea what sauce they put on the brussels but it was so yummy. The sprouts had incredible char/cook on them so they tasted super meaty. I couldn't believe I was eating veggies LOL. Of the mains, the ones that stood out the most to me were the shrimp toast, fried chicken (of course), braised rendang, cherry bbq pork belly rice and uni risotto. I think my top 3 in order was: 1. Uni risotto (SUPER creamy and SO MUCH UMAMI) 2. Fried chicken (the skin shattered like glass) 3. Shrimp Toast (I don't think I've had such a bougie shrimp toast before LOL) Dessert was interesting. I enjoyed it! I thought it tasted great before I looked at it on the menu and realized it was supposed to have ube and pandan in it. Didn't taste much ube or pandan but that's probably the point because of the strong berry sauce accompanying the cheesecake. I tried a multitude of the cocktails but my fave HAD to be the Donkey's Villain Arc. Taste-wise it was perfect to me (easy to get drunk on). Victoria's Dirty Little Secret was the most instagrammable imo but taste-wise a lil too heavy on the whiskey for me (I prefer Whiskey Sour as a cocktail). Shoutout to our server, Christian, who attended to all of us throughout the night (both tables). Very knowledgeable and patient with the drink suggestions! Plates of food kept coming out to us piping hot. One might think that because everything was shareable we wouldn't get full but that was far from the case! Everyone was stuffed, had a great time and the food was fantastic! *TL;DR here if you skipped down here* Great service from Christian our server, nice big portions on the shareable plates, interesting flavour combinations in the dishes and very warm hospitality from the chefs for allowing us to stay slightly past closing time!

Had a lovely dining experience at this fusion restaurant. The atmosphere is very cozy and intimate. They had a few tables and the aroma of delicious food was in the air. The food was tasty and the portion sizes were good. Would definitely recommend a try.

Amazing experience as always this time with my mom at Azyun Restaurant. I particularly enjoyed the fried chicken this time around, definitely the execution this time is near flawless! The batter is spot on, and the meat of the chicken near the bones is well cooked through, so no blood and not a little bit raw. I also enjoyed the pork belly fried rice as well. I had the Victoria's Secret mocktail which is mainly ginger beer flavoured, first time having this and I was impressed by the taste! Definitely will come here to have lunch or dinner often. :)

Such a great spot on Main Street Markham. We ordered the sharing meal for 4 people option which gave us the opportunity to taste many dishes. We enjoyed everything and would definitely go back.

Azyun Restaurant is located on Markham Main Street. The cozy atmosphere and delicious food make it a popular spot for locals and visitors alike. The menu features a variety of dishes inspired by Asian cuisine, with a focus on fresh ingredients and bold flavors. Some of the more notable dishes would be the truffled fried rice and the pho spiced beef tartare. Azyun Restaurant has something for everyone. The attentive staff and welcoming ambiance create the perfect setting for a casual weekend lunch (noon to 3pm) or a special dinner. We really enjoyed the set menu for four at Azyun Restaurant. It was just right for us, satisfying our appetites without being too much. We are already looking forward to our next visit, and this time we plan to try some of the other dishes on the menu, including the Pandan Ube Basque Cheesecake. Seriously, don't miss out on the opportunity to dine at Azyun Restaurant when you're in the vicinity – it promises to be an unforgettable experience.

Amazing food! Highly recommend reserving beforehand as it is very small! Ordered the set menu for 2 and signature dumplings as they ran out of lobster: 1. brussel sprouts (5/5) thai chile and peanuts - amazing 2. eggplant (4/5) sliced a bit too thin and sesame oil heavy but not bad 3. curry shrimp cake (5/5) came with four large triangles - unexpectedly delicious, perfectly lightly fried and flavourful! 4. manila clams (5/5) absolutely loved the broth and fluffy fried mantou that came with it! 5. curry beef noodles (2/5) would not recommend, the choice of noodles were strange with the dish and overcooked, curry was missing a kick and did not come with many pieces of beef 6. signature dumplings (3.5/5) standard pork and chive, was perfectly fried but nothing too special for the price! Very affordable set menu and unique options—would definitely come back!
