    Our server Maddy was wonderful and a new employee. She even had another server from Dublin come over to chat with our son who was leaving for a trip to Ireland the next day. Impressively attentive!

    We had a very pleasant dinner! The food was excellent, and Abby as always provided great information about the menu (bring back the manicotti!) and was pleasantly attentive. She made us feel like we were in her home instead of a restaurant. Top marks all around!

    We had a great meal. Our server, Andy, was very attentive and accommodating to all of us. His personality should be the standard of all servers! We go to Avvio often and this visit was as good as all the other visits! Nothing less than outstanding. I highly recommend the rigatoni bolognese. You can’t go wrong with this dish. They even make a gluten free one too.
