    We’ve been to Avli with a group of 9, with two others, and as a couple. Every time the service and food have been wonderful. The waitstaff has recognized us from previous visits as well! The only recommendation my husband has is that they should serve a “chaser” with the Bloody Mary! Their drinks are fun and always changing. We will be back again (and again).

    My husband and I are self proclaimed foodies and this restaurant exceeded our expectations in service, ambiance and most importantly the food. My husband had the fish and I had the lamb, we enjoyed two cocktails each, an appetizer of 3 spreads with pita and a bottle of wine. We finished with Greek coffee and a chocolate dessert. Our waitress, the host, and the bartender were all so nice and the conversation was welcoming and friendly. The views of the city lights are wonderful and the seats are not crowded together. We both said we haven’t had such a lovely meal in a very long time (-and we go out a lot!)

    Took some key employees to Avli for dinner after a week of workshops. I don't think I could have picked a better place. The ambiance was calming, the food was incredible, and the service was great as well. I will be returning here whether it be with my wife for a romantic dinner, or for a family gathering, and my staff will insist I take them here the next time they are in town. I know they loved it as well, because Avli is being evangelized throughout our office today. For starters, craft cocktails and pita with a trio of spreads and the Greek salad - amazing. Our dinners included the chicken souvlaki and shrimp souvlaki (skewers) which were bursting with flavor, along with the beef pot pie (a pot pie lover's dream), and lamb chops (maybe a little too smokey for us). In addition, we shared small plates including the kataifi shrimp (work of art), the spanakopita, and saganaki - all three of which were incredible. This is now my favorite restaurant in the city - they will see me again soon!!!
