    Little pricy on most items including a 6oz soda at $4 and $9 for a piece of grilled chicken on a salad. Could have a better menu including more seafood and chicken dishes. Overall is was nice but would pick another place for the money.

    Our first time at Aviary - everything was delicious! French Onion soup was on special and it was perfectly done. Steak tip sandwich was great. Our server Morgan was very attentive - can't wait to go back!

    My husband and I sat at the bar. It was unusually quiet for a Thursday night. The bartender, Kendra, was engaging and on her game. I got the pasta and meatballs, which were excellent. I was told they recently changed their recipe and I highly recommend them. My husband got the sea bass and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He said he would get it again the next time.

    Staff was very professional and pleasant. Our meals were excellent. All issue is the lighting to get into the restaurant driveway it was very difficult to see in the dark

    We requested seating near the fireplace and got it without a problem Food we had was good, but menu options were limited, especially veggies. Would’ve liked more options. Waitstaff was wonderful and it’s a lovely place.
