They were fantastic and accommodated my food allergies to dairy. The chicken w/ polenta and the local catch menu items were delicious. Ate there twice.
Lovely restaurant with a nice view of the water. If I judged the food by the appetizers, I would not return. Everything lacked flavor, and the margarita was horrible. I had to send it back. Just a mediocre dining experience.

Made a reservation because it was listed as the top restaurant on the island. Ambiance great, staff great, location great, food good.
Ordered appetizers, one came out so hot, spice wise after being told it was a subtle heat that we had to send it back, which is something I rarely do. It was just wrong. The entrees were just...

We went for a nice dinner as it was recommended by our hotel. However, we wanted to order A special listed for Thursday and was told it was not available. Next we tried to order Lamb Moussaka and then were told they ran out of it. We were then forced their lamb boulannaise. It was filled with pasta and just...

We had dinner here over Memorial Day weekend. I was looking forward to it because it was dinner for my boyfriend's birthday, and the reviews on tripadvisor were so good. Wow, I feel like I was at a different restaurant than the people here...
The atmosphere was lovely but the food was just awful. We started with Brussels sprouts, which...

We ate here twice on our visit to Avalon, once at dinner and once at lunch.
The food was very good. We had buffalo burger for dinner and ahi tuna burger for lunch. With a sea bass crevice for starters.
The buffalo burger was exceptional. Cooked to juicy perfection. The ahi burger was okay but over-seasoned for my taste. I...

The males host on 5-26-2013 was very unprofessional and rude! I can't believe such a classy establishment would have terrible customer service. Granted I wasn't wearing the most 'classy' attire but after a long day of sunning I didn't see this as a problem. Unfortunately for Avalon Grille my Amex card without a limited with spent a few blocks up...

Whenever I visit Catalina (which is often) I always choose the Avalon Grille for my fine dining experience. My friends and I had an amazing time. The executive chef greeted us at the table. He was amazingly friendly, had a great sense of humor, and gave us perfect suggestions for food and pairings. This time around I ordered the ceviche,...

Had the Monday special, pot roast, around $25. It was way too salty!! It came with mac & cheese and a few veggies. Expect more from a fine dining establishment. None of the elements wowed, but the atmosphere was fancy.

We were recommended to come here by our tour guide and it was really nice. We had first walked away from it, because it was a little pricey and we wanted to see what other restaurants were out there. (of course on the island there are tons) but when we saw the prices for other restaurants, they weren't THAT much...
