Azerbaijan Grill in Westbury isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a warm, aromatic gateway into the bold and vibrant cuisine of the Caucasus. Quietly tucked along Old Country Road, this unpretentious gem delivers the kind of soulful cooking and hospitality that transports you straight to the streets of Baku.

Inside, the setting is cozy and relaxed, with traditional touches that hint at the region’s deep cultural roots. It’s a place where families gather over tea, where friends dig into platters of kebabs, and where newcomers are always welcomed with a smile.

The food? It’s the star of the show — hearty, fire-grilled, and built on layers of spice and smoke. Start with the eggplant bademjan salad, mashed to creamy perfection and mixed with garlic and olive oil, or try the sigara borek, crispy phyllo rolled with herbs and tangy feta. Each bite opens the door to something deeper — centuries of food tradition rooted in simplicity and technique.

Main courses at Azerbaijan Grill revolve around the grill, with highlights like the juicy lamb shish kebab, perfectly charred and seasoned, and the chicken jujeh, marinated in saffron and lemon until it melts in your mouth. Sides like basmati rice, grilled tomatoes, and cool cucumber-yogurt sauce round out the meal with balance and comfort.

Desserts don’t disappoint — flaky house-made baklava sweetened with just enough honey is the perfect ending.

Whether you're familiar with the cuisine or trying it for the first time, Azerbaijan Grill delivers authenticity without compromise. It’s real food, made with pride, and it belongs at the top of any serious eater’s Long Island list.
