Avlee Greek Kitchen

Love their Greek food here. They have an awesome menu selection. So worth trying if it would be your first time. And they have a really great menu selection.

Nice little Greek eatery with mouth watering food. While I enjoyed having my lunch there, the layout of the restaurant and the service was a bit awkward. It's a small place with five tables in the front of the restaurant, we were being seated in the middle and I could hear every conversation from the left and right table. Given the size of room, the hard wall and glass window probably bounced the sound a bit too efficiently. The table by the windows was perhaps a bit too close and therefore the window amplified the customers' conversation and bounced it back to the middle table. That was a bit annoying. Another awkward moment was while we were waiting for our food, there's no complimentary pieces of pita bread or olives to pick on. Last, please fix the door. It's winter time and the wind is strong. It's weird and borderline rude to ask every single customer that enters to slam the door shut. The room gets really cold because of the draft. On the plus side, the food was prepared with care and the result was really high quality delicious food. The wait was a bit long but it's worth it. That brings it back to why it was awkward when there's no complimentary olives or bread on the table.

How have I not stopped in before. Every plate was delicious and there is quite a bit of variety on the menu. We ordered the tzatziki, spanakopita, grilled octopus, and beef and lamb gyro. Looking forward to including Avlee in the regular rotation.

The food was fresh and delicious. There was very friendly and helpful staff. A moderately priced good quality meal. I recommend

Avlee is a good Greek restaurant in Brooklyn.

I’m Greek-American and been eating in Astoria since I was a little kid, so for me to venture to Brooklyn for Greek food is unusual. With this said, Avlee is a solid choice for the area.

Service was efficient and polite, and the ambiance is pleasant.

The food was all decent to good. The halloumi was semi fried like a piece of saganaki rather than grilled which was not something I prefer, but this isn’t a big deal. Beyond this, everything else was just fine. Nothing was outstanding, but I’d come back for sure.

Recommended.
