The food tastes super fresh (you can literally see them making things by hand), & everything we ordered was flavorful. Portions are generous & the service is warm & welcoming. Definitely recommend
J'ai eu le bonheur de découvrir la cuisine turque chez Avesta, & quelle belle surprise ! On sent tout de suite que les plats sont faits maison, avec des saveurs authentiques & généreuses. Tout était vraiment délicieux.
J'ai aussi beaucoup aimé le cadre, très beau, & avec une décoration qui nous plonge complètement dans l'ambiance.
Gros + : pouvoir voir la préparation des plats en direct, ça rend l'expérience encore plus immersive & donne encore plus envie de goûter !!
Très bonne découverte. J'ai vraiment apprécié les mezzés, & plus particulièrement les sarmas. La carte offre plusieurs options, dont des plats véganes. On sent que la cuisine est faite maison.
Me & my gorgeous Keith went here last Friday night & we had a great experience ^^ Food was amazing! He got the Vegetarian Sandwich served with salad & he was impressed with the flavors. Also it was only $12! He also got the Vegetarian Sushi which we found very tasty as well. I got the Jarred D'agneau & let me tell you how tender it was, the meat just fell off the bone! Overall, food was great & we recommend. Service was also very good! For the ambience, I think they can dim the lights a bit to give it more a romantic vibes in my opinion. Also, it was a nice touch that they had a station right in front where they display how they make their flatbread. Overall a great first time experience. We will go back ^^
I really enjoyed everything about my experience at Avesta. The food was absolutely delicious from start to finish, & every dish was full of flavor & beautifully presented.
The meal itself was amazing, but the dessert truly stood out !!! It was spectacular & the perfect way to end the night.
The atmosphere was warm & inviting, & the overall experience felt special. I would definitely come back & highly recommend this place!
Such an amazing place ! The food is delicious, the service is excellent & the place is so clean & welcoming with the Turkish vibes ! It gave me the same feeling back in the days when I was in Istanbul!!!! The owner was so friendly & professional as well ! Absolutely worth to go back there !!!!!
I hosted my friends here for my birthday & we had the best time. The staff were wonderful & made us all feel right at home.
