We went for the Endless Brunch on Mother's Day. Everything was great - service, food, and atmosphere. It's not inexpensive but worth the price. They're moving locations and we will definitely be following them.

First time here and not busy at all for a Saturday night. A total of 8 people from 6:30 PM until 8:45 PM. Dishes were pretty good overall with more hits than misses. Appetizers and soup were fine. One main was salmon which was unfortunately overcooked with a BBQ sauce that was extremely salty. Duck entree was excellent. Desserts were great as was the service. Chef came out at end of night to mingle with the guests which was a nice touch. We will try again in a month and hope for a much bigger crowd.

This was our second visit to Azalea Bistro and the food was as good as we remembered. Our server, Alex, was great. Attentive but not obtrusive.

Absolutely delicious and delightful meal. Apparently they are moving to Greenville SC so I was so glad they were able to accommodate me. Will be hunting Azalea down in the future!

We had a lunch there pre season so not crowded. I took my out of state daughter and her foster child there. The child was intimidated by the menu and the waiter was wonderful with her, answering all her questions kindly and patiently. The chef came out and explained how he prepared the crab cakes. The She Crab soup was the best I’ve had anywhere on the east coast or FL. The crab cake slider size 1/2 sandwiches were delicious. Such a great experience for all of us!
