    We love Avli. This is our second experience at this particular restaurant and our fourth at Avli overall (including two other locations). The food is always great, attentive (but not hovering) service, nice ambience overlooking the park and you can hear each other speak at your table (though it's not so sedate that you feel like every other table can hear your conversation).
