I have created a SQL Server in Azure and have downloaded the Azure Data Studio. I have a SQL Server database backup file (.bak) and connected to the sever that I created from Azure Data Studio and I am not seeing an option to restore the database.
I just have the back up file available and don't have any on perm database available and I want to directly restore the database to the Azure SQL Server.

Azure SQL database currently does not support this feature. The only way to restore a SQL database in Azure is to import from a BACPAC file as @Larnu said. You can follow this guide to use a BACPAC file to migrate to an Azure SQL database.
Another option:
If you get an account to connect to the local server.You can use SQL Management Studio to migrate it directly to Azure.
