    EVERYTHING was quite lovely! Loved the decor and ambiance. The food was REALLY yummy! The only observation is that it seems everything is sweet or on a plate with something that is sweet. We ordered a lot of food and all of the sweet taste were a little distracting. The Brussels sprouts were excessively sweet. Again, everything we ate was delicious. Just a little strange that all of the dishes were sweet. I will be back soon!

    First time at Avana and overall a good experience, there was an event going on so the bar/lounge area was packed and the music was a bit loud for conversation in the dining area closer to the bar, will definitely ask for a table further back next time. The food was tasty but some dishes are overpriced, some portions were quite large ( lobster Mac n cheese) while others on the smaller side ( Chilean sea bass). The deviled eggs with catfish toppers appetizer was delicious. Will definitely go back, nice vibe overall and love supporting the Amina Hospitality Group!

    Food was good but overpriced. Ambience was less than what I expected.

    Food was amazing, nothing on the menu is average. I appreciate my waitress, she went above and beyond. The only downside, when you arrive, standing there at the door waiting for someone to seat me and greet me when the employees are just talking by the bar, took too much time.

    Avan was a great choice! The staff was pleasant and friendly, and the food was amazing! We had a few appetizers and entrees, the #1 appetizer was the oxtail pizza omg can't stop talking about it, it was delicious and very flavorful. My #1 entree was the lobster Mac it was one of the best I've had, it was soooo good! We had the lemon radiance drink and that was good as well and did not lack liquor. Overall Avana was a 10/10 hands down! I can't wait to go back!
