Went with friends. Good service. Liked our cocktails. Good ambiance. Portions as described, and were good for us. Fresh and flavorful. We all enjoyed our dinners. Truthfully we enjoyed the first course and took home a good portion of our entree! Thank you.

Not worth the price.

We liked that the food was light — you didn’t feel heavy afterward, but the octopus, lamb, and steak weren’t flavorful or anything special. I’ve had more flavorful/complex-tasting food for half the price of our meals.

The atmosphere is nice, but it was a bit odd to be dressed up and see several others in sweatpants and hoodies, and for a few of the waitstaff to dress more casually. I don’t mind that they were, but it made the experience feel less classy/special and therefore overpriced.

We hired AVVINO to cater our wedding and it was a great decision. Janine is so easy to work with and makes the process go very smoothly. We were able to have a nice date night at their lovely restaurant prior to the wedding and we enjoyed every second of it. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. The food is amazing and they were able to adjust to any requests we had such as gluten free and vegan/vegetarian. We would highly recommend AVVINO to anyone!

Great food, excellent portion sizes and on the affordable side for an upscale restaurant. Venison curry was excellent, ceviche was great but didn’t like the crisps that came it, lobster & burrata was pretty good too and drinks were great. Service was fast and excellent. Interior design is kind of intriguing, especially with a big photo of Dennis Rodman staring at you in the restroom 😂

Beef Tatare was sour and salty, unlike the sweet flavor you typically get from Asian restaurants. Entrees were not bad but also not my favorite. I can see how some people may find it more enjoyable. But I'd rather pay for something that I can appreciate more for this price so won't be coming again.

Always great food here, and great friendly service. Whether it's just a dinner for two, work dinner for 4, quick snack at the bar or a private dinner downstairs, the service is awesome.

Went here for a girl's night out because we all heard rave reviews. Drinks were delicious! The octopus was very yummy. My friend got the lobster appetizer and the lobster was way over cooked. Then we got our second round of food and it was kind of disappointing. It was good, it just wasn't great especially not for the price. I wouldn't come here again nor would I recommend it to a friend. I got the bone marrow as an appetizer and it was just a let down. A friend got the fettuccine and she said it lacked flavor. The spinach fritters were very good and the dessert was worth it. Service was also lacking, she was very jovial and nice to surrounding tables but then her demeanor would change when she got to our table, as if she was bored. Overall we all wished for a better experience. Would much rather go to chortke or vesper

Lovely place for dinner. Unusual drinks and appetizers. Try the cauliflower appetizer!

Vegetarian options: The restaurant offers vegetarian options that are true dining options and not just something to fill the vegetarian slot.

Food overall was very good. Mixed opinions on the octopus app. The cauliflower app was delicious. The cream corn served with the pork chop was a favorite with our group. Salmon dish was excellent with the exception of the sweet potato on top, just didn't fit, a lemon would have been better. The Korma dish was a miss for us, no naan served with the dish and only 5 pieces of tofu. When compared to the other entrées the tofu didn't make sense on portion, that being said the tofu was the best part of this dish- flavor of the rest of the dish was fine but not memorable. Cocktails were good. Service was top notch. We are looking forward to going back and trying more of this menu.
