Refusing to prepare separate checks for two diners? The food isn’t good enough to outweigh the lack of flexibility. Sorry. I’m done with this restaurant.

Food very good from their new chef. But that chef took some Greek standards off the menu (taramasalata, skordalia) that I missed. Kinda like going to McDonalds and they're not serving hamburgers this month.

Stopped here once before at the bar before a play at the Writers Theater and had apps and drinks. We enjoyed it so much we decided to stop for dinner before another play. It did not disappoint. We ordered trio of dips from Apps, octopus, spinach pie, feta shrimp and flaming cheese from small plates, beet salad, lemon soup, Greek salad and moussaka from entrees and they were all delicious. Fun to share plates and enjoy. Service and cocktails were great. Can't wait to return.

Avli is a neighborhood favorite. We've been coming here forever. So... they have a new chef, and many of our favorites have been updated or removed. All good! Last night the food was better than ever. Especially the Poseidon plate--fantastic-!!- and big enough to share. But we do miss the taramasalata. Hope they bring that back. Great service.
