    Excellent food, wine and service but very noisy due to the over abundance of hard surfaces. Some baffling or material could absorb most of it. Great overall experience and we will most definitely be back

    Quality of meals were not great, meals were not seasoned and were cold. service was slow, decor was nice. I had higher hopes for this venue from the menu reading.

    High end quality meals… definitely a fine dining experience as far as quality meal presentation and flavours is concerned. Yes, it’s pricey, but you get the fine dining standard…. As far as the meal anyway. However, the venue and service needs some improvement. Lovely staff, however they should offer patrons at least water when seated and bring the drinks menu straight up. Although there was a comprehensive Specials list, that was all verbal, nothing written down. So you had to listen carefully to hear what the options were! Table service should be more attentive to patrons, with staff taking notice when patrons may want something. Fine dining should not include having to wave down staff for serving spoons or fresh drinks. Blow flies on the window (yes, on the inside) whilst dining, also needs to be addressed. Okay, the business is marketed as ‘Casual fine dining’ but most of the things mentioned above are not acceptable. I’ll go again, and hopefully these things will be improved, or it will be a ‘no thanks’ from me.

    The food at Ava was outstanding and the best meal and presentation we have had for a very long time. We would certainly recommend this restaurant to anyone. The staff were very friendly and efficient.
