Was our first time together Avli and we can not wait to go back. We are planning to go with our dinner club. Such a warm space, lovely decorated and comfortable. The service was excellent. He explained our questions carefully. The food was SO good. We enjoyed the hummus. My cocktail was fantastic, Cretan bull. Chicken souvlaki was so flavorful and tender and the walleye was also very flavorful, tad spicy. Then there was dessert, 3 choices, we had something that had bits of nuts and cookies with ice cream on top - man that was good! Not too sweet or rich.
