Visiting
Avli
April
2023,
we
found
much
disappointment.
The
food
has
really
gone
down
hill
over
the
past
two
years.
I
ordered
their
gyros
plate
for
the
first
time
thinking
Greek
restaurant
it
should
be
great!
It
was
dry
and
tasteless.
There
was
only
one
tomato
slice
and
a
few
slivers
of
red
onion.
My
wife
ordered
her
usual
skewered
chicken,
and
it
was
over
cooked
and
hardened
on
the
skewers
and
the
rice
was
overcooked
and
bland.
The
best
dish
ordered
was
the
pasta
with
shrimp
🍤.
They
serve
cold
bread
and
butter
packs
like
a
diner.
We
had
to
ask
for
olive
oil,
which
is
their
own
brand.
We
then
had
to
ask
for
Parmesan
cheese
and
pepper.
After
dinning
here
many
times,
it
has
become
a
disappointment
to
say
the
least.
Prior
review
below.
The
second
time
visiting
Avli
turned
out
much
better
than
the
first
back
in
2019.
Sitting
out
in
the
courtyard
allowed
us
to
be
more
comfortable
with
Covid
and
all.
The
service
was
much
improved
from
the
prior
time,
as
our
waiter
was
personable
and
attentive
but
not
over
bearing.
Even
the
busboys
seemed
to
be
better
trained.
We
started
with
a
drink
and
dolmaldes
while
waiting
for
our
guests.
These
dolmaldes
were
the
best
I’ve
ever
had.
The
plates
was
dressed
with
a
slightly
sweet
amber
sauce
that
contrasted
the
lemon
tartness
of
the
grape
leaves,
while
the
rice
meat
mixture
was
delicious.
The
menu
has
its
basic
Greek
menu
items
and
then
the
not
so
basic
to
chose
from.
I
actually
had
the
lamb
chops
with
their
Greek
rice.
The
chops
were
ordered
medium
rare
and
very
thin
medium
well
came
out.
I
didn’t
send
them
back
because
they
were
well
seasoned
and
tasty.
Even
the
broccoli
was
well
seasoned
and
grilled
with
just
right
amount
for
the
grill
browning
and
flavor.
My
mother-in-law
is
vegan,
and
there
are
plenty
of
items
on
the
menu
for
her
to
order.
The
only
desserts
ordered
were
ice
cream
and
the
cheese
cake.
The
cheese
cake
was
ok
but
not
great.
