                    The chicken milanese and chicken parm were excellent. We loved the return of the garlic and spicy olive oil dip for the bread.

                    Food was good as always - burger and fig pizza, usually get pasta entrees which are always very good. Service was not good, waitress forgot our drinks, then tried to tell us that gorgonzola and blue cheese are same thing, we asked since menus had different descriptions for fig pizza. Not her night I guess.

                    Had the crispy artichokes to start. I had expected grilled but they were fried and served with arugula. Yummy. Enough for the 4 of us. Since it was lunch we opted for soups and burger and eggplant Parmesan app. All were delicious. Our server ,Jackie, was so efficient and friendly. Made our New Year’s Eve lunch even more special. Definitely recommend Avvio. Beautiful atmosphere and great bar also.
