    $5 side of fries
    Kyle C.

    Have heard great things about the pizza here so thought we would stop in. The service was quick and friendly. Table says order by phone but bar tender came by and offered to take our order. The pizza was very good and will get again. Meatball bowl with Cavatelli left something to be desired. The sauce was sweet and watery. Pasta was cooked well. Didn't care for the meatballs. The fish sandwich was nothing special. $5 for a side of fries is steep especially when it's just bagged, thin cut fries. The cannoli was very good. Kind of small but very tasty.

    The food was excellent. The service is excellent. The place looks very aesthetic fits Youngstown perfectly. I especially have to give a shout out to the my cashier, Epernay W for being very nice and welcoming will be coming back and bringing my family 5 stars

    Pizza was good. Sweet sauce and thick Pizza . Seemed like a popular place to be at for families and more. Service was friendly and atmosphere was festive .

    The Menu...

    We went to our granddaughter's dance competition in April 2024 at the DeYor Performing Arts Center and had dinner at Avalon afterward. There was a line out the door to be seated on a Saturday night, but the customers waiting in line were friendly and assured us that the line moves fast - this restaurant obviously has a regular following. We sat at the bar and again sat among regulars. I had a Cabernet, and Ray had a beer. Heaven! I can't believe the menu here!!! It reminded me of my ex's Italian family recipes. I had the fried smelts and Brier Hill Pizza (just like my ex-grandmother in-law's homemade)! My husband had wedding soup - with homemade soup breads - another Youngstown staple! I make soup breads at home, but I have never had them at a restaurant. Impressive and delicious! My husband had a meat pizza and loved it. We ordered a potato pizza and cannoli to go. I didn't realize a restaurant still existed that served authentic Italian food. By the end of the evening, my cheeks were sore from smiling! What an experience!

    It was festive but not spectacular. We were seeking spectacular. The food was good but we were starving and wanted the appetizer first. Everything was served at the same time. The server was good but not super attentive. Prices are fair. Chairs are uncomfortable. I paid 7.00 to park but that may have been my fault. I've heard amazing reviews about The Avalon so we might try it again. I think pizza is their specialty.

    Haven't ordered from there in a long time but have been patronizing downtown restaurants. Gave them a try. Very disappointing! We ordered pizza and wings. They charged $18 for 12 tiny frozen wings (yes I called and asked if they were the frozen battered kind- like Banquet brand) Pizza was okay.

    Fun cocktail menu, good apps-- favorites were the truffle fries and hot pretzel. Crispy chicken Mac…read moreand cheese was yum. Good place to grab cocktails with my girls.

    I'd keep it honest but professional so it carries more weight:…read more Barrel 33 has some of my favorite shrimp tacos anywhere, and I've never had a bad meal here. The food is consistently good, which is why we continue coming back. Unfortunately, the service has declined significantly over time. It wasn't like this when they first opened, but now it seems that every visit involves long waits--for drinks, water refills, someone to take our order, our food, or even our check. Tonight was a perfect example. We sat for about 15 minutes before a young man who wasn't even our server stepped in, took our drink order, brought our beverages, and made sure we were taken care of. He essentially saved what would have been a very poor experience. Once we were finished eating, our actual server finally appeared. My meal was also brought out without the fries that were supposed to come with it, and the menus on the table were dirty. The bright spot was that young employee who stepped up and took care of us. I wish I had caught his name because he deserved the tip and the recognition. The food keeps us coming back, but the service continues to be disappointing. I truly hope management addresses it because this restaurant has great food and a lot of potential. Unfortunately, tonight wasn't a one-off experience. The last time we dined in, service was so slow that our drinks didn't arrive until long after we ordered, and the beer was warm by the time it reached the table. Our waitress acted as though checking on customers was a hassle, and while we waited for drinks and service, she seemed more focused on her phone in the back than on the guests in the dining room.
