Restaurants in Avalon

“Delicious tacos and margaritas. The owner is Amazing. Love this place and would recommend to anyone coming to Catalina. The best meal we have had here was at the sand trap.”

“Love FLX ! Great beer hosted by some great staff.”

“Great food good prices and good drinks”

“Restaurant and shop was nice and friendly. We got the burger that was supposed to be a bison burger, but just seemed like a regular burger and a little on the dry side. I have had good bison before, but this just tasted like regular beef.”

“Great drinks, food & server Diana is the best!”

“A delicious cheese burger, cooked and served to perfection. The brown roll with seeds was a highlight. Shoe string french fries hot and good. One server of them is massive.
Nice one. Thank you.”

“Amazing service, incredible food, Jimmy was outstanding!”

“We have eaten at Steve’s Steakhouse the last 2 nights. We brought our fresh fish catch last night and they cooked it 3 different ways. All excellent! Tonight we came back for Ribeyes and Baked Potatoes!!! Logan Rehm Says So Darn Good!!!!”

“We stopped in for a day trip I read this was the place to go according to the locals online and man it didn’t disappoint!! Alex was our main bartender he was awesome! The locals were all so kind we did the teriyaki beef it was sooo good! Drinks were on point the atmosphere and workers were all so inviting! We look forward to a trip back !”

“Just hung out for drinks but what a place the history is cool! If those walls could talk. The bartender was great and he had plenty of advice! Could not recommend a better place.”

“If you’re looking for a fun place to hang out while you’re visiting Avalon - this is your place! This restaurant/bar exudes a carefree, tiki hut type establishment. The music is loud but it creates such a fun vibe. The servers are joyful, it’s like they’re having a blast while working which makes it that more fun. It’s a smaller place so finding a seat can be a mission but if you can, I highly advise that you give this place a try. It’ll be worth it.”

“My husband and I enjoyed excellent bison burgers on Tuesday during our second day on the Trans Catalina Trail. Definitely make a stop and let Mike and his crew take care of you in this beautiful setting.”

“Clam chowder was the bomb!”

“Good food, good service. Went here because the lines were very long at other places and we just wanted a quick bite for breakfast. Prices were similar to mainland and reasonable. My husband an I agree that the food was very good, much better than expected. Skip the lines and come here!!”

“This place is great for someone wrapping up the TCT or even for someone just section hiking/camping for a few days.

I love to grab breakfast here on the morning I plan to go back on the ferry.

This past trip I had chicken tenders when we came in as a day 0 type of thing and on our way out I had the e-bay (everything BEC bagel). I remember the service being really slow the last time we were on the island, with just 1 person working the register and 1 person in the kitchen, but this time they had at least double that and the service was quick, which was preferable.

It's a little pricey but everything in two harbors is.”

“I can say for sure this is the best option in Avalon for Ice Cream! The staff is super friendly and offer you to try the flavors. Cones are 10 USD and there are several options !!! Must go.”

“Best gluten free sandwich and gluten free cookie I have ever had! Had the cookie first and forgot to take a picture!”

“Some of the best food I have ever had. Clam chowder was creamy and good. Da bomb shrimp had great flavor and was cooked perfect. My wife commented that the sea bass was some of the best fish she had ever had. Our server was very personable and welcoming. Talked a bit and shared his recommendations for each dish to make it the best possible. This play is way better for quality and price than many of the other options on the island!”

“Clam chowder was the bomb!”

“Let's start with this is a ca$h only establishment. Not a problem as I had cash while visiting Catalina Island. And while talking $$$ it was price affordable, price right and fairer that some other local restaurants. It's tucked away and seems like a local favorite. It's away from the tourist attractions on the main strip.. Menu options Korean and Mexican but trust me don't let that stop you if you wanted something American ish.
Enjoy”

“Great place for groups and drier”

“Lana was so accommodating on our quick stop in Catalina island! She gave us great recommendations and was very kind and helpful during our stay. Highly recommended restaurant with great views! Thank you Lana for guiding us in the right direction! Your the best”

“Cheryl is the best! Great Apple fritters and terrific coffee. A great way to begin a day of adventure on Catalina.❤️”

“5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best Cuban sandwich I ever ate & I’ve ate a lot in Miami & the staff is great & the owner Megan is one of the nicest persons I’ve ever meet & all the food is great 💙”

“The food is delicious! I had the 1/2 rack of ribs that were fall off the bone delish and my husband had the Prime rib sandwich. Soooo good! (& sorry no time to take photos as we dug in and couldn’t stop! Besides my fingers were full of finger licking good sauce!)”

“Wonderful food and margaritas. I recommend this restaurant if you are visiting Catalina Island.”

“Best morning coffee ever. The spinach tart is to die for. Friendly, welcoming staff.”

“Excellent food and atmosphere. Great for families.”

“After exploring the island we were ready to have a bite to eat. Everything on the main walkway was overcrowded so we went down a side street and accidentally found Antonios Pizza. We decided to order a whole pizza which you could only do inside. We were waited on promptly and our pizza came fast as well. The pizza was delicious, the crust and the sauce was perfect and our toppings were perfectly blended on the pizza. Our waitress was a delight, very attentive and polite. If we ever travel to Catalina Island again we will definitely stop in for a pizza. Highly recommend.”

“Leticia and Rosie were so sweet and friendly I actually came back a second time on the same morning. They serve Illy coffee for both drip and espresso, which is a personal fave. I only wish it were brewed a tad stronger, but then I like my coffee really dark. Bagel was also very fresh.”

“Their pickle pear margarita was very good and I also really like their empanada. The atmosphere is really cool inside. Up on the roof would’ve been cool to sit on but with the sun blazing didn’t get that opportunity.”

“Five of us went to dinner and everyone ordered a different pasta entree. Without exception, each person enjoyed every bite!! My pesto and scallops dish was creamy and perfectly seasoned. We will definitely return on our next visit to Catalina Island.”

“Great customer service and the food is excellent!🥰”

“The Naughty Fox is in a nice location with a good view. The servers are helpful and attentive, even with a to-go order the presentation was nice. I do agree with other reviewers that the cost to portion size is on the smaller side. What I did have was very good though. It would be five stars across the board if it was a little more reasonable.”

“Tacos and Beer! A great combination.

The asada taco was a healthy portion of meat topped with fresh onion guacamole sauce. Tortilla held together and added a wonderful chew. Salsa has a nice heat. Smokey elements.

Outside seating. And super fast and friendly service.

100% would come back.”

“We visited here for dinner though. It's very popular breakfast place. We were very happy to be escorted to a nice table. Esmeralda took the orders and helped guide us through the availability of Italian dishes. I took the salad and the minestron soup. They were excellent. Noodles with meatballs and well cooked. Rub yeoli dish with spinach. Everything tasted, yummy drinks were available. We went in for simple Coke and water. The service was very good and being a birthday. They gave a complimentary tiramisu, which was icing on the cake. Excellent place. We enjoyed all the hospitality and great service. Very reasonable prices and made evelyn, even more memorable”
