" Our dinner party at Bar Avalon was delightful! The outdoor seating was perfectly arranged, and the food was delicious. We tried a variety of dishes, and the short rib pasta was the winner for sure. Kudos to the staff who provided excellent recommendations! My only suggestion would be to add more vegetarian options to the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bar Avalon has quickly become one of my favorites! I hosted a small birthday gathering there, and they took great care of us. The happy hour deals are awesome, especially on the truffle fries. I ordered the calamari as an appetizer and it was perfectly crisp and flavorful. For my entrée, the rigatoni bolognese hit the spot! The portion sizes are generous, meaning I had leftovers to enjoy at home. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a frequent visitor to Bar Avalon, and they never cease to impress! The staff has always been friendly, and the food is outstanding. The short rib pasta is my personal favorite—it’s rich and satisfying. I often find myself ordering too much because I want to try everything! Plus, the outdoor patio creates a fantastic dining experience on warm nights. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I had brunch here last weekend, and it was amazing! We ordered the mimosa board which was perfect for sharing. The lobster and spinach eggs benedict stole the show for me; the hollandaise sauce was divine! Our server was extremely friendly and offered great recommendations. The brunch menu has a diverse selection, which makes it hard to choose! I’ll definitely be back for brunch! " (*Curated Review*)

" I discovered Bar Avalon through a friend's recommendation and went last week with a couple of friends for dinner. The atmosphere is upbeat but not overwhelming. I tried the gnocchi which I found to be deliciously cheesy, although a little on the softer side for my liking. The dessert options were limited, which I found disappointing. Still, I left feeling satisfied overall and would definitely give Bar Avalon another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally tried Bar Avalon after hearing so much about it, and it didn’t disappoint! I was blown away by the offerings on the menu. The calamari as an appetizer was perfect, and for my main, I had the rigatoni which was bursting with flavor! It can get quite loud during peak hours, but the food and service really made up for it. Highly recommend for anyone in the area looking for delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've visited Bar Avalon several times, and I keep going back for a reason! The atmosphere is excellent for socializing, and their pasta dishes simply cannot be beaten. The pappardelle with braised short ribs was melt-in-your-mouth good. I recommend checking out their seasonal specials too—they usually have something exciting! The service has always been friendly, making each visit enjoyable! " (*Curated Review*)
