    Even with limited patrons, it took us an hour to get our food. My husband was very disappointed with his pork chops being too salty. I had the rib-eye meatball which was tasty, but nothing to rave about. The beets were very good. All in all it was very expensive for a meal that was average.

    What a great evening we had at Avelina! We were just hoping to find a spot in the middle to meet friends. What we found was a new restaurant to add to our regular routine. Angie, our server was amazing - she has a great personality and knew the menu perfectly. We tried some incredible food - the octopus was cooked to perfection, one of the best charcuterie trays we have ever experienced too! Everything was amazing and Angie made it even more enjoyable. Our whole party agrees, we will be back for more.

    Kaelee was extraordinarily. By far one of the best bar tenders I've met in Denver. Amazing restaurant - highly recommended if you're looking for anything between a quick drink and an amazing meal. Created one of the most incredible ultimatum experiences. Shoutout to the head chef, and Kaelee for truly making us feel welcome and the exceptional experience.

    This was our first visit to Avelina and it was awesome, already made reservations for another dinner! The service was spectacular. We shared the Boudin Blanc and Jagerworst Charcuterie boards for an appetizer, there was plenty for two, the Jagerworst was super tasty with the mustard seed topping! Best Brie I've had hands down. We also shared the Tomato Risotto, I loved this dish, the artichokes were so tender and sun dried tomatoes-yum! Avelina has landed on my regular local restaurant rotation, I'm excited to try more as their seasonal menu changes too!

    We had dinner there with family from out-of-town. The food was outstanding. Two of us had the Striped Bass and it was absolutely delicious! Very creative menu and the staff was very warm and welcoming. The restaurant paid close attention to social distancing and all of the staff wore masks. It felt safe. The night we were there a number of rather loud drunk women were celebrating something or other; otherwise the noise level would have been fine!
