As we came into the restaurant, the hostess wasn’t particularly pleasant and seemed like she didn’t want to be there.
Our server was friendly but rushed and was distracted. At one point he asked how our food was, and as I was replying that I didn’t really enjoy it, he was already turning around and walking off while saying, “That’s great!”
The Maduros and sauces were good. The Mango Guacamole was also good but it was a bit disappointing as it was only a bit of “mango salsa” spooned over the top of the guac. We mixed it in to spread the flavor more.
I ordered the Fajita Burrito and it had way too much lime for my liking. I had 3 bites then stopped. I also ordered the The First Punch drink and it was mostly ice, only slightly sweet, and didn’t have much flavor for something that includes dragon berry rum, pineapple rum, orange, lime, and pomegranate. I do appreciate the meals sizes for the price though.

The food was pretty good but nothing special. Good cocktails. Little pricey but it’s that area (which is a great area). Overall it wasn’t bad.

This place was a dream! We were visiting from out of state, and we couldn’t have been more impressed. We got the sweet corn salsa, which was amazing and such a good price for the portion. Then we got traditional tacos with shrimp and the lobster taco. Both AMAZING, but you can’t beat their traditional tacos especially with the shrimp. It was such a beautiful place and a great atmosphere. The woman serving us was extremely kind, and attentive! 10/10 recommend.

First I’ll start off with the service. We went during lunch time and the restaurant was fairly crowded upon arrival, but it cleared out before we were finished. It was literally only one server and he was bartending! He did exceptionally well taking care of each table all alone. I forgot his name, but it started with an R and word glasses. He was so nice and patient with us. Answered all questions and gave good suggestions. He was great!
The food was pretty decent. The prices are kind of high if you ask me. I think the Mexican pizza was $27 and it was more cheese than anything. One big holiday was the drink I ordered, I had two they were good.
The restaurant was clean bathrooms including. It was a nice experience I just don’t know if I’ll be back. A lot of the menu options had pork in them which made it a little difficult for me to order.

Omg! The food I ordered was amazing! I underestimated the portion and ordered for another side dish and couldn’t finish them both. The server who attended to us was nice and restaurant was quiet which I liked because I came in during lunch hour. Will be back for sure

So many places in Northern Ohio attempt to serve delicious mexican-inspired food. Let’s be honest – we are in Ohio, so our expectations of ‘authentic’ mexican food are typically tempered. However – Avo offers a beautiful tribute to food inspired from the Southwest but with a midwestern flare – and not in a bad way. Seasoning and flavors are on point, the food is served quickly and hot, and everything tastes fresh as if from farm to table. Cocktail choices are interesting and unique and hand-crafted to perfection.
However, the real star is Julia – a manager who also serves and bartends. While enthusiasm and a positive energy are always appreciated, she is that and more – knowledgeable, engaging, giving great recommendations and somehow managing to be everywhere at once – a rare asset in a service industry which has become bored and indifferent.
Ohio City has much to offer.
But if you want great food, exceptional service, and an experience that satisfies your gastronomic, personal and spiritual needs – please visit Avo!
Peace.

Avo Modern Mexican was a pleasant surprise. From the moment I walked in, the place had a cool, laid-back vibe without trying too hard. The lighting, the music, even the way the space is laid out—it all feels intentional and inviting.
The food? Way better than I expected. The guac tasted super fresh, the tacos were packed with flavor (and not skimpy on the fillings), and the portions felt just right. Everything came out hot, fresh, and fast. I can tell they put real thought into the menu—it’s not your typical copy-paste taco joint.
It’s a bit pricey, but honestly, the quality and experience make it worth it.
What really stood out to me was the balance. It’s modern, but not pretentious. The flavors are bold, but not overdone. And the service was just chill—our server was helpful but gave us space to enjoy ourselves.
Glad I gave this spot a shot. I’d come back just for the vibe alone—but the food definitely makes it worth the return.

We came as a group of 8 for happy hour. The food was pretty good especially the guac, queso, salsa and chips! Be AWARE they charge 20% for a large group… It seems rather steep especially when everyone is buying multiple drinks and food. I would have recommended it to others but after that 20% charge I’m out.

Last night we received good service but poor quality food. The hostess and our server were great. The cocktails we ordered sounded interesting, but overpriced for the small portions and poorly mixed (margarita, bourbon sasafrass, and tequila old fashioned). The margaritas tasted like mocktails. The apps were decent and came quickly. I found a long hair embedded in the first half of a BBQ quesadilla. After taking a few minutes to find my appetite, I tried again yet bit into ANOTHER long hair also embedded in the food. I let our server know, and she quickly apologized and offered to remake the food but I wasn’t hungry anymore. I would not recommend Avo until the bar and kitchen get an overhaul. Clearly the kitchen needs sanitation standards (hair nets) and the cocktails need a revamp to make the small pours a higher quality deserving of the price. Also, the menus were unreasonably sticky.

Everything from the drink to dessert was delicious. We were pleasantly surprised at the quality and freshness of the food. Our waitress was attentive and the restaurant was clean. Will be visiting again.
