About Azit

Azit is a restaurant located in the East Bay Berkeley area, known for its seafood pancake, regarded as one of the best in the region. The restaurant offers a variety of Korean dishes, including fried chicken wings and spicy pork kimchi fried rice. The fried chicken wings come in a dry crust with optional flavors such as plain or green onion, and the kimchi fried rice has a spicy kick.

Azit is a late-night casual eatery bringing Korean fusion comfort food to the Oakland food scene. Although the exterior may not seem impressive, the interior features neon signs and a dimly lit atmosphere that mimics Korean nightlife. It is open from 6pm to 1:30am seven days a week, making it perfect for a dinner meal or a late-night bite. The restaurant has a trendy atmosphere with murals on the walls, but the music can be a bit loud, which affects the overall ambiance.

The restaurant is reasonably priced, making it a good option for a quick bite or a meal on a budget. However, the cleanliness of the bathrooms has been noted as an area for improvement. Parking can be challenging, but the food and service have been praised as worth the effort. Azit also offers a soju cocktail, which is described as a generous portion, ideal for those looking to enjoy a few drinks.

The food comes out relatively quickly, and customers have enjoyed various dishes, including the seafood pancake, corn cheese, bulgogi and cheese fries, and the garlic bossam. The fried chicken was highlighted as having a crispy exterior and juicy interior. Azit is suitable for both dine-in and takeout, making it a convenient option for those looking for a meal after bar hopping or on their way home from events such as Cal Day at UC Berkeley.
