Best Historic Restaurants in Northbrook

I had an early reservation during the week and therfore no one else in restaurant. Peaceful, quiet atsmophere listening to Christmas music. Just the kind of place to unwind.

Wonderful food! Waitress was also wonderful and very accommodating. My only complaint would be to offer a side salad with the entree. Even at an extra charge would be fine. The Cesear salad was wonderful but way too big for 2 people to share as a side salad.

Excellent! Loved everything about this bistro! Food, ambiance and service all outstanding! Our server, Julia, was wonderful! Highly recommend this restaurant - you won’t be disappointed!

The food is always great at Avli. It was very busy and the noise levels were quite high but bearable. Maybe they could play some music to drown out some of the chatter. We had the hummus and eggplant spread. Both were great. Big portions. We also had the mini chicken skewers which were delicious, and the meatballs. They were quite good although the tomato sauce on top was quite tart and tasted a bit like tomato paste. My husband liked it more than me. For dessert we had the orange pie which is actually orange cake. It is delicious. We also tried the cheesecake and chocolate filo sampler. Both were very good. We love Juan who has been our server in the past. Very attentive and friendly.
