The music was a little too loud for my personal liking but it did not takeaway from a delightful dining experience. I will come again.

    This is a cosmopolitan setting to enjoy a multi-faceted culinary experience to attend to all your sensorial needs. It may serve as a business hub or romance-laden situs for a quasi-exotic rendezvous that makes you forget you are still in Orlando. The fine art of gastronomic service beyond the efficiency of mundane act of nourishment.

    More of a night club than a restaurant in my opinion. Service is top notch but food is no better than mundane Greek restaurants. Presentation of the food is great. The night club or rather restaurant is about style over substance and that’s not a bad thing just not my thing.

    My husband and I are big fans of AVA and repetitive guests whenever we are in town. We were thrilled to find out that they started serving lunch. Usually, we visit the restaurant during brunch, so this is a great option. We had an excellent experience due to the exceptional service provided by Gab and Sebastian - as usual! They are knowledgeable about the menu and made personalized recommendations based on our previous visits. The food was mouth-watering, especially the brazino fillet and the baklava, some of the best we've ever had. We've also noticed some tweaks to some of our favorite dishes, such as the octopus, making it more delicious each time. Overall, the personalized service and the quality food made us have a great time, Everyone from the moment you walk in is absolutely amazing from start to finish, this is why we were so was surprised when the sommelier asked us to leave while we enjoyed our last glass of wine at around 4:20 pm. Although the restaurant was transitioning from lunch to dinner, it was rude to be told that we would have to vacate the table soon while we still had a full glass of wine. It would have been better if the sommelier had said something like, "I hope you are enjoying your wine. Soon, our dinner guests will be arriving, and I can move you over to the bar, so there is no rush." We would have probably ordered a dessert drink before leaving if we had been offered this. Nonetheless, that last bit would not change our minds about AVA or the rest of the staff that provides an exceptional experience every time! We will definitely be back.

    We always enjoy AVA. My only complaint is their wine prices are ridiculous. Pretty much any other restaurant on Park Avenue has better wine values. Don’t know if they have a corking fee, but if they do, buy a bottle from the Wine Room next door and bring into the restaurant. Go early. Gets a little loud as the night goes on.

    Came for my anniversary and had a mandatory 18% grat added to the bill. I would’ve tipped much more, especially considering I worked in fine dining for 10 years and appreciated that they uncorked an expensive bottle we brought that had meaning for our relationship, but a mandatory 18% grat on a 2-top is ludicrous. Sad to say but I likely won’t be coming back bc of this.

    Beautiful place with great food and exceptional service from Tiana and Aidan. These two were the sweetest and both very knowledgeable. It was however uncomfortably cold in restaurant. It was a rare cold night in Winter Park in the low 60’s. They had the AC cranking and doors open. Others nearby were saying same. Aside from that very odd issue it was great. Service top notch!

    I had made the reservation for 9:15 pm, we waited 20 min to be seated; not a problem at all. The service was ok but the food was mediocre. The risotto without exaggeration was dried!! The lobster pasta was not good either. The linguini by itself was excellent but the lobster was not edible as it was mushy / not cooked properly. If you pay $65 for a pasta dish, you expect to be good. I never complained or requested anything for free, I paid my bill in full and I still left a good tip.

    AVA was recommended to me by a Disney Sales agent. I sure wish I could thank her in person because my experience was AMAZING!! Everything was so fresh and full of flavor. We ordered the Sea Bream prepared Spetsiota Style with Greek wild oregano, roasted tomato sauce and surrounded by clams and mussels. Our side dishes were crispy potatoes with sauteed broccolini. And finally, we finished our meal with the lavender olive oil cake. My tummy was soooo happy. My date was a little apprehensive with my choice selection but later confessed that he wanted to lick the plate. I can't wait to return.

    Food is seriously lacking in flavor. Service needs to be more attentive, I found myself having to constantly track down our server. This was a birthday celebration of which the staff was aware, however, no one acknowledged the birthday guest. I wrote it in the notes and they even called to confirm the reservation and read my notes back to me. Once we arrived, the table had no birthday celebration indication and we had to request the high chair that was already noted as a necessity. The silverware is laid out on the bare table, no napkins or anything else to proctect them, I found this so unsanitary. They also do not have disposable silverware available.... UNBELIEVABLE. We ordered the tuna tar tar, $65 lobster and the $58 lamb chops, the latter two dishes were completely undesirable. The 3 pieces of thin lamb chops has ZERO seasoning and to make matters worst all items on their menu is a la carte so we needed to spend an additional $14 for a side of roasted potatoes. The gratuity is automatically added. The bill was $290, we were a party of 3. We have no quams with spending on great dining experiences but this was far from it. I'm confident that majority of these 5 star reviews are FAKE. The ambiance is beautiful but thats it. Overall I wouldn't return nor recommend; this is not a 5 star luxurious experience. It is a nicely decorated space where you can chill, have some drinks and socialize. I would recommend Ruth Chris nearby as an alternative for good food.

    Called ahead in reservation weeks prior for a table of 5 and specifying my wife’s 30th birthday celebration. Got there and received a round table that was at the highest traffic spot nearest to the entrance as well as on top of the servers station. This table caused us to overhear all casual conversation of workers, including multiple staff members hovering behind our party. Food was good but was tainted at the overall experience. It is not a place for conversation amongst the table given a loud ambiance. Probably better for a couple or smaller parties.

    This dining experience was nothing short of AMAZING! On this evening we had the meatballs as an appetizer, the filet mignon and lamb chops with brussels sprouts and potato millefeuille as the main course, and the mille feuille tart and greek yogurt as dessert. Each adnd every single item we experienced was prepared to perfection and the flavors were so authentic, they transported us back to the Mediterranean. We will certainly be back for another visit.

    The food was outstanding. Our server was top notch. We sat on the lounge side which was perfect. Ava was definitely an experience. It’s worth going.

    Awesome dinner. Great tuna sashimi, Greek salad was super fresh and delicious and red snapper presentation with red sauce clams and muscles was divine! Highly recommended! Great atmosphere and service, as well!
