    It was everything! I took my honey and son there on a date for Valentine’s. We drove 53 minutes to get there. We wanted to try a few things so we ordered: chargrilled oysters, the crab dip, and the chicken bites. I also ordered the beet salad. As our entrees, we had the blackened grouper, broiled seafood platter, and my son had the burger. I know, it was a lot of food but everything was delicious. Even the drinks!

    First, thank you to the whole staff - the ladies up front, the bartenders, the servers and bussers cleaning and clearing the tables. Everyone made our Valentine's Dinner awesome. The Fig bourbon is delicious. Trevor was a great waiter and was responsive to our table. 1st course - beef tartare for me and jumbo shrimp for my wife were great. 2nd course - she crab soup and the duck confit spinach salad were very tasty. Entrees - Salmon Oscar cooked beautifully as was my wife's broiled seafood platter. The mashed potatoes were very creamy and tasty. Dessert - the warm butter cake was delicious. Thank you again.

    My wife and I have been going to Rumi's at Avalon for years. The food is always AMAZING and the staff very courteous, friendly, and responsive. We have never had a bad experience and no matter what dish we try, it is SO flavorful. If you like Persian/Mediterranean food, you have to go to Rumi's!

    The food was spectacular. Pasta side with swordfish and a sea bass main. Bottle of wine, a half dozen oysters and a salad were all the fixings. Service was great, very attentive. Great ambiance and really high ceilings add to the atmosphere. Definitely will do this again!
