Autumn greeted us at the door and got us a quiet spot in the corner (even though they were booked) she was awesome and giving us a preview of what to expect for food service and drinks. She explained a bit about Ava's philosophy and had time to make us feel welcomed and comfortable. Then Dominic took over he gave us detailed explanations and recommended a couple of plates based on our preferences. The lobster pasta is solid, the yellowtail hamachi crudo is soft and tasty and Potato Millefeuille with truffle oil is one of the best delicious Alternatives for French fries 🍟. The oysters were surprisingly good and fresh for Orlando. Good place to celebrate a special occasion or bring clients. Thank you Dominic and Autumn for an awesome experience!

What an amazing dining experience! From the front door to your table, the entire team adds a little something to your meal. I just stopped by (a little early) to have a cocktail, watch the sunset, & maybe a small bite to eat - I'm so glad that I did! A special thanks to Casey & Ariel for taking good care of me. Casey, especially for recommending the Verde Margarita. And Ariel, I was a little nervous about trying the Grilled Octopus but the explanation of the ink being purposely separated from the green sauce (I think avocado) and intended to be mixed by me was enough for me to be brave & try it. Thank you, again & I hope to try more from your wonderful menu soon!

First time here & it was for my early birthday dinner. My friend was able to get a reservation on the same day and we sat downstairs which was so aesthetically appealing, I did not want to leave . Bella is a great server and so knowledgeable about the menu options from dishes to cocktails . It was so helpful having her and I was unsure which wine to pick so she brought me 2 samples to help make my decision . I ordered the torch sushi which came with table side service; my cocktail was a porn Star that came with a shot glass of champagne, highly recommend & pour it into your cocktail. My friends did not tell anyone we came for my early birthday dinner , somehow in our conversation, they brought that surprise which so was sweet & greatly appreciated. I have so many great things to say about this restaurant & I can’t wait to return !

We visited AVA MediterrAegean in Winter Park during our recent trip to Orlando. We live in Indianapolis, and we always love discovering great restaurants when we travel, so we found this place online and decided to give it a try. And it was such a great choice! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the atmosphere elegant, welcoming, and with that Mediterranean charm that makes you feel transported elsewhere. The service from Josh C. was impeccable friendly, attentive, and very professional. He gave us excellent recommendations and truly elevated the whole experience. We tried several dishes from the menu, but without a doubt, the ribeye was the highlight of the night: perfectly cooked, juicy, and full of flavor. The desserts were also delicious both the one we ordered and the lovely gesture of bringing me a dessert with a candle after learning that my birthday had been the day before. It was such a thoughtful touch that made the evening even more special. In short, a beautiful place with excellent food, first-class service, and an atmosphere that makes you want to come back. Thank you, Josh C., for your outstanding service and for making that dinner such a memorable experience!

We had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday at this wonderful establishment, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Casey and Emily provided outstanding service—gracious, attentive, and professional throughout our visit. The food was exquisite, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. Our waitress was impressively knowledgeable about the menu, offering thoughtful insights into each dish. Service was prompt and seamless; our meals arrived quickly, and every request was met without delay. The bar also deserves special mention—the cocktails were artfully crafted, balanced, and flavorful, perfectly complementing the evening. It was truly a top-tier dining experience. We look forward to returning and would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking superb cuisine, masterful drinks, and impeccable service.
