    This is an excellent restaurant with great Greek food. The service is impeccable. Our server Bobby was a pleasure to order from very efficient, timely and attentive. We enjoyed talking to him about Greece and its culinary menu. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

    Although we completely enjoyed the Hellenic Chef’s Experience, we were very disappointed with the after party. The description suggested there would be “festive live bouzouki.” Although the rooftop setting was pleasant, there was no music playing. It was really low energy and felt more like a beer garden than an actual party. We had to leave early

    We just had a fantastic dinner at Avli. We had the spread sampler and it was delicious. Two of us had the lobster Bucatini and we can't wait to go back and have it again. Our guest had the greek salad and loved it. Fabulous and friendly service, beautiful place and wonderful views.

    The Little Gem salad was not the same as last week. It had regular raisins instead of craisins. The fish fillet presentation was not very nice but the fish tasted good. The waiter was very hard to understand.

    The food was very good in a beautiful setting. Upstairs they have an open seating area, which was nice if the weather holds up. The cheesecake was delicious.

    Food was just average , nothing special. There are many greek restaurants with much better food. Server wasn’t any great either, barely came up to the table and didn’t even take plates away until we asked

    You could hear the music from the parking garage. I had to shout to communicate with the greeter. Asked for a table away from the upstairs festivities. They put us in the back near the fireplace but still we could not hear one another speak. The upstairs dj was so loud my Apple Watch kept sending me notices that the decibels were at dangerous levels. Why would they rent out the upstairs for a dance knowing it would be that disruptive? We would normally have another bottle of wine and desserts following dinner. Decided to go to another restaurant to finish up the evening. Service was meh.

    Love this place sooo much! A staple for me and friends! This time was no exception! Only wish there wasn’t a bar mitzvah happening, it was very loud, but I’m happy to see the young man having a good time! The staff was AMAZING as always and really helped me feel special for my birthday! 🎊 THANK YOU!

    Beautiful atmosphere, very friendly and attentive staff and delicious food! The only difficulties were finding the entrance to the restaurant (GPS took us to a lower street) and it was quite noisy. Overall, lovely restaurant and really appreciate the complimentary valet parking! Will definitely be back.
