    We love this restaurant! The staff is amazing, always professional and friendly. The food is top notch and consistently delicious. The only downside is the acoustics in the restaurant, it’s very hard to hear each other and the waiters. Other than that they get ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from us!!!

    My husband took me to Averna this week to celebrate my birthday. It was, by far, the best dining experience we've had since we moved to New York last year. The restaurant is upscale, but cozy and we felt at home here. From the greeting to the goodbye, the service was as amazing as the food. The entire staff made us feel like they really wanted to take care of us; the water glasses always full, attentive, but unobtrusive wait staff and bussers and the owner was a great host to everyone. Hubby had a beautiful ribeye and I had a gorgeous filet mignon; both cooked to medium rare perfection. We ordered maple bacon Brussels sprouts (addictively good), lobster mac & cheese ("OMG" good!) and grilled asparagus for the sides we shared. We started off with the light and delicious filet mignon carpaccio for our appetizer and for dessert we had coffee and split a caramel toffee cake. I'm not a big sweets person, but that cake was flipping amazing and the perfect way to end a birthday. I can't wait for our next visit. I've got my eye on the branzino!

    Dining at Averna Italian Steakhouse in Rye is always a pleasure. From Sammy's warm gracious greeting as we entered, to Harbi's friendly informed service at our table and especially the Chef's Specials, which were delicious and expertly prepared; with a varied menu of selections enough to please all of my guests. Thank You and Keep Smilin', Steve

    A little pricey, but that’s everywhere now. Porterhouse was very tasty.
