For us, opting for a Managed Instance with reservation rates has been cost-effective compared to using a VM or managing on-prem servers. Just be aware of the costs, as Managed Instances can get pricey if not managed properly.

Out of curiosity, what percentage of your monthly spend is on Azure SQL? Knowing this might help in identifying where to cut costs.

Deleting Azure SQL eliminated a lot of unnecessary expenses for us. Just my two cents!

Consider going serverless if your database isn't constantly in use. You can set it to auto-sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity, and if you're using vCore, look into purchasing a reservation. If you manage multiple databases, using an elastic pool can also help save costs.
