I have not had a chance to eat the food at this restaurant, but I’m sure it’s wonderful.
Classy and casual.
Very bright atmosphere large money room inside of a small mall the restaurant takes up most of the location.
I am writing this review for one special person. I’m sure everyone is wonderful there.
And all the owners are in there they will check on their guests as I see everything as I walk in. I’ve seen the bartenders working hard to the waste app and always with a smile.
The lady at the front desk always greeting us as we walk in and waiting patiently with us as our order is brought to us.
But there is one special person that I hope she never leaves and grows within the company: A superstar named KATE🦸♀️!!!!
I am an older six year DoorDasher.
I do many deliveries for this location and with KATE being there SHE MAKES THE DAY THE NIGHT THE EXPERIENCE SO MUCH BETTER…
As you enter the restaurant, she greets you with a smile she will let you know the exact time the food is ready and she’s never wrong. She will have you relax in a seat. she will bring your order to you and let you know how pleased she is that you stopped by.
As Doordashers We work very hard at what we do to serve the people, the restaurant , and the company. with her being there makes the stress all go away.
I say to the owners thank you for standing strong and staying in business so long. thank you for allowing us in your restaurant and greeting us like any other customer. We are the delivery guys… I feel special walking into this restaurant.
Never let Kate go.
An amazing staff , the people, and your angel at the front door.
KATE!!!
May you all stay blessed.
May anyone read this please go enjoy the service and the food. I know it’ll be wonderful for you. I myself will take a day off and experience that part of the restaurant as well.

the greek salad has changed and it was TINY. i asked for chicken and it was less than two ounces. so expensive for no food!
Amazing vibes and even better food! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was fun, warm, and inviting. Every dish we tried was incredible and the meat was so tender it literally melted in your mouth. This is the perfect spot to order a variety of plates and share because everything is that good, but the portions are also generous enough if you want your own dish. The desserts were absolutely amazing and a must-try, and the drinks were just as impressive! so flavorful and well made. Overall, an unforgettable experience and a place I can’t wait to come back to! It was also my first time trying greek food and now I am in love! Will from now on recommend this place to everyone!

Food was well prepared. I ordered a salad with seared salmon. The lamb balls weren't really balls, more like lamb risotto. Tasty! A little over priced especially since we didn't order alcohol.
My experience tonight was nothing but amazing. The food was really good, from the appetizer to the main course everything was well seasoned and cooked to perfection. The service was great, our server greeted us and was attentive to our needs. Will definitely be returning again.
Great place.

One of my all time favorite restaurants is no longer one I will visit. I haven't been to Avli in a while,.....And it has really changed. Very few people on a Saturday night says it all. Allowing three young children the run of the dining room while screaming was the start! Service was very slow....and many servers waited around and seemingly did little. Food was mediocre at best. In today's world of expensive prices, I don't have the interest in trying again,
Avli has really changed since I was there last year. The food was delicious and the waiter was great. However, it has gotten very expensive and all sides are now extra. Very disappointing.
Mediocre food, presented without flair or enthusiasm. Very disappointing. How they've managed to expand to four restaurants is beyond me.

The food was good! My wife loved her fish and I enjoyed the gyros. Our server, Tina, was phenomenal! Thanks!
Beer tasted cold, Maria the bartender unfortunately was not wearing her apron

My wife and I had dinner here last night. The food was fantastic, especially the hummus and souvlaki. Emilio our server was great as well!! Would recommend!
Avli in Winnetka truly delivered. We ordered the Meze Platter, broccolini, marrow, octapodi, and the Mediterranean steak, and every single dish was amazing. The flavors were on point, portions were great, and everything felt very fairly priced for the quality.
On top of that, the service was excellent, attentive, friendly, and well-timed. This new menu is an easy 5 stars, and I can’t wait to come back to try more.
The new space is calming, relaxing and beautiful.

I tried the new menu at Avli, and everything was genuinely so good.
The Meze Platter was amazing and had such a nice variety. From the Mezede section, the octapodi and phyllo shrimp ended up being my absolute favorites, both were really well done and full of flavor.
I also had the salmon, which was delicious and cooked perfectly.
Overall, the new menu is impressive, and every dish I tried was a hit. I’d definitely recommend checking it out.
