From the moment we sat down, Arian and Alondra took exceptional care of us. Their attention to detail, warmth, and genuine hospitality made the entire evening feel special. My mom was having a hard time choosing a wine, and instead of rushing her, they thoughtfully arranged a mini wine tasting with a few different pours so she could find exactly what she loved for the night. That level of service really stood out.
The food was absolutely incredible — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The fish in particular was phenomenal — easily one of the best I’ve ever had. Every dish felt intentional and elevated.
To top it all off, the general manager was gracious enough to invite us to see the downstairs members-only lounge, which was such a classy touch and made us feel truly valued as guests.
The combination of outstanding service, amazing food, and a welcoming atmosphere made this a memorable evening. We’ll definitely be back whenever we’re in Orlando. Highly recommend AVA Mediterranean!
It has a beautiful atmosphere and the food was incredible. The truffle pizza, fish, and halloumi are all must-tries. The tomahawk was good.
Unfortunately the experience with the front staff and service wasn’t great. We had a reservation but were seated about 40 minutes late, and after waiting that long we were seated at the back of the restaurant where no music or ambience matched.
We came planning to spend good money and enjoy the night, so the poor service was honestly confusing. Our original server never properly closed out our table, but a second waiter stepped in and was fantastic, which helped end the night on a better note.
The front of house and service needs serious improvement.
We tried the lobster roll, which was delicious and generously portioned, the hummus served with bread, fresh and perfect to share, and the eggs benedict, which were well prepared and full of flavor. Everything we ordered was very enjoyable.
The service was very good, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was really nice great for a relaxed brunch with friends or family.
I recommend making a reservation, especially on weekends. There is free public parking on the corner, which is a big plus, and they also offer valet parking for $10.
Definitely a place I would return to and highly recommend for brunch in Orlando.
Our server, Dominic, was awesome. He was very kind, funny, and gave great recommendations.
It’s definitely a fine dining experience, so there are a good amount of entrees that are a bit expensive, but there are also a fair amount that’s quite affordable! I would recommend making a reservation, it was quite busy so I’m not sure how long the wait typically is.
This is our second time dining there and we’ll definitely be back!
I understand that it’s a newly opened restaurant, but my money has the same value as their investment. The experience started off poorly: an unnecessary wait despite having a reservation, an unprepared table, and a wet seat. Not a good beginning.
Food: Overall disappointing for dishes that are supposed to be simple and standard. The branzino was burnt and overcooked, the hummus samples were tiny portions, and the only highlights were the seabass carpaccio and the bread.
Service: Excellent job by Laura — she truly stood out. However, the rest of the staff still needs training, especially when it comes to preparing dishes like fish, which is surprising for a restaurant trying to recreate the spirit of the Greek islands.
Ambience: In Miami, a newly opened restaurant naturally attracts attention, and people come to see what it’s about — hopefully this momentum continues. On a positive note, the decor is impressive, with details that successfully evoke the Greek islands.
Conclusion: It’s better to wait some time before coming back again.
If you’d like a version that’s more formal, more direct, or more diplomatic, just let me know.
