Azia 19 is a kosher Japanese restaurant nestled on Aza Street in the heart of Rehavia, one of Jerusalem’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Opened by Bar Yedid, a second-generation Jerusalem restaurateur, the restaurant brings an izakaya-inspired dining experience to a city that has long lacked high-end Asian options.
The concise menu balances sushi and sashimi with kushiyaki (Japanese charcoal grill) and Japanese-style burgers. Highlights include creative uramaki rolls, charcoal-grilled salmon in teriyaki glaze, and a yaki burger with Japanese barbecue sauce. The restaurant also offers a happy hour from 17:00–19:00 and a 20% lunch discount.
Azia 19 holds a Jerusalem Rabbinate kosher certificate and delivers via Wolt. Since opening during the difficult summer of 2024, it has quickly become one of Jerusalem’s most talked-about restaurants — a rare combination of quality Japanese cuisine and kosher dining in a city where both are hard to find.
