BEST FALAFELS EVER!!!! The falafels are perfectly crisp and bursting with so much flavor. The inside is soo airy/fluffy and Mmmm, you just have to try it!! I order the falafel plate during lunch to-go and it comes with a bed of rice, fresh side salad + dressing, hummus and a pita bread. The Pita is another thing I look forward to because it's seasoned to perfection. I could eat this everyday if I could. My coworkers that eat meat do enjoy other dishes on the menu as well. I can't stop talking about this place in my office tbh. If you haven't gone in before, please do - the owners Nadia and Avo are so friendly and will patiently help you with any questions you have on the menu. I remember my first time calling in and speaking to Avo, he kindly went through all the vegan options I could choose. So glad I came in, I'm a forever fan of this place! read more

Delicious! I got the gyro sandwich and my husband got the bravo combo with level 5 spice. Both dishes were beautifully presented (even as take out!), warm and super fresh when we got home to eat. The flavors were so good and both meals were very filling! I love that tzatziki sauce the meals come with! We also got the feta dip which came with 3 large fluffy pita breads. It is also very good! A nice kick, a good portion, and pretty rich so we're saving some for later ! Thanks for the delicious meal, we will be back! read more

The food is amazing and the portions are generous! And on Friday, experience with live Greek music just puts the experience over the top!

Food was great but they missed our salad which they refunded me. Liked the quality and definitely recommend them

great food, great service, great atmosphere! this restaurant is such a refreshing change from all the usual place. Thank you!

Been trying to find new spots outside of our usual 2-3 places we go to, and oh boy, my wife and I are so happy to have found this place. We got the chicken wrap and the falafel wrap with the eggplant dip appetizer and it was so good! Loved how flavorful and garlic-y the dip was. This place is definitely going to be in our weekly rotation moving forward, can't wait to eat through the rest of the menu. read more

Better than the food in Greece!! Yes, I said it. My experience was amazing from start to finish. After being seated by the friendly hostess, Chef Avo (also the owner) came to greet us. He asked if we had any food allergies and told us, "I'll be cooking for you today." And boy did he cook! He also stopped by a couple times to make sure we were ok and enjoying the food. We were:-) The pita is worth mentioning. I've had pita a hundred times but this one was different. It was kind of crisp. Very good. I had to remove it so I didn't fill up before my entree came. Chicken A La Avo - Whoa. SO good! I've seriously never had anything like it. It was a combo of slow cooked chicken & veggies. Amazing. The menu says it's their #1 seller and I know why. Gyro plate - Delicious. Cooked & seasoned perfectly. Ever since my trip to Greece last year, I've been searching for good Greek food. With Bravo Avo I finally found it. The only bummer is that the restaurant is a solid hour drive from where I live. If it were closer I'd probably dine there once a week. It was that good. Thank you Chef Avo!! read more

I stopped at Bravo Avo 26696 Portola Parkway in Foothill Ranch' The place was very nice and clean. The cashier was super nice and friendly. The nice manager allowed me to take the photos. This was the first time I have eaten at this location. I ordered; Chicken a la Avo; breast of chicken slices, cooked with mixed vegetables, white rice, mixed salad, and pita bread slices. A great combination of flavors. I drank a Diet Coke with my meal. For dessert; Baklava with roasted walnut. Fresh and lightly crispy. It was super duperly delicious. I bought one extra order of Baklava for take home for my wife Diana. Diana said it was excellent! I left with a great smile on my face. I drove home to write my review. Robert H. read more

The food here is excellent and fresh, so much to brag about and the waitress is so personable. My complaint is the owner. I had already brought 3 different guests with me on different occasions to eat there and it's not cheap though the food is worth the treat. My problem was that I had formally met the owner when I brought my Italian friend for her birthday and she was so nice talking with us about Italy. Hugging and all. The next time I returned with my husband a week after Valentines. I had reserved a table for Valentines and could not keep it because my husband was couldn't get home in time. He's medical. I tried calling and calling; no answer. Then I tried through apps. I was able to go into one where you make a reservation and just leave a note to break the reservation. Wrote out a paragraph apologizing. Turns out they do not answer their phones during certain times of the day she if you call, forget it. So when I came with my husband a week later, the owner was absolutely rude to me, just short of straight out calling me a liar, telling me that I didn't and they had a table holding for us. She raised her voice again and again; what a horrible experience to deal with her crazy side while her husband stood meekly quiet as well as our usual waitress. I felt bad but again, I explained and she refused to believe me; just treated my like shit. I sat and ate there anyway that day, trying to brush off my humiliation and embarrassment from the lady owner. Paid our bill; I will never return to this restaurant again because of her rudeness towards me. This happened a year ago. Still can't get it out of my system every time I'm parking near there and see it. read more

Oh man , one of the first jobs I had when I first came to Orange County was in this restaurant, the food here is amazing , both lunch and dinner dishes are delicious!!! It's been years ... but all I have to say are kind words to the owners who always treated me with respect! read more

Had the vegetarian combo (falafel + grape leaves), hummus, rice, salad, and pita bread and it was the best falafel we've had! It was perfectly seasoned, crispy and light, and it was not dense at all. I also had the salmon plate and it was cooked perfectly as well! Will definitely come back! Owners are super awesome! read more

It was me and hubby, once again being indecisive about where to eat that wasn't too far away from home. i'd noticed Bravo Avo popping up on my Yelp searches so we decided to give it ago. It was dinner time, the place was pretty empty. You can tell it's a casual place by day and a sit-down place by night. There's a cute girl dressed in shirt & tie waiting to greet and seat you. Bizarrely enough, she is not allowed to take your order or put in a request for any additional items. (She told every party this.) When we let her know we were ready, she had to go get who I assumed was the owner of the place to come take our order. We started with the spinach pie and the falafels. Both were pretty good....can't go wrong when the falafels are fried to a crisp so that almost the whole thing is crispy. The accompanying hummus was good too. (Good work getting the girl to come by and try to push more pita on us for $2,99 when she "checked" how much we had left.) Hubby went with the 7-hour lamb roast and I went with the house combo special (beef skewer, chicken skewer and gyro). Hubby liked his dish which he said was only slightly gamey but very tender and deliciously seasoned. My combo came and I deflated a little when I saw the small skewers of beef and chicken. However, both were delicious and perfectly seasoned. The bland yogurt sauce they give you on the side only detracted from the meats. I wasn't a huge fan of the gyro meat - it was dry and a little overseasoned. We did stick around for dessert - hubby got one of the desserts imported from Milan. MILAN...weird but super tasty. It had hazelnut chocolate in it and crispy bits all over. This item was glorious (and super sweet, proceed with caution). I went with the house-made baklava. I guess the only thing the girl was able to do is take dessert orders. She talked up the baklava and said that they were working on a fresh batch right then. I assumed that meant I would be served from that fresh batch but it didn't seem so when the product was brought out. The baklava was probably just average. All in all, this was an ok meal. I'd venture to guess we may be back to try some of their other dishes at some point down the road. read more

:: VENUE :: Bravo Avo is situated between Tae Kwon Do & Pick up Stick. Fairly easy to find when you see that it is across from McDonalds. There's plenty of parking. I've dined in for lunch & as well as ordered To-Go. Their online ordering system was very easy to navigate through & use -- which definitely made pick up easy & quick. I fancy the high ceiling of the establishment which doesn't make me feel crampy or claustrophobic. The wall décor color/paintings gives off a very cozy vibe.The indoor ambiance gives me a happy & casual dining feel :) :: FOOD (LUNCH REVIEW ONLY) :: Food here has been consistently delightful! Always fresh & hot. The lunch entrees I have tried all have been yummilicious, filling, healthy & NOT greasy or fatty. While dining in for lunch note that it is not full service. So once you step afoot to Bravo Avo place your order with the cashier (generally it's always been the friendly owner) at the counter.Then grab your beverage from their beverage/condiment section by the entrance. Choose your dining spot indoor (tables & booths) or outdoor & your food will be brought out to you in a pretty timely manner -- depending on what time you go. Lunch is served in disposable tableware. Rice/Pita/Salad [5/5] - The rice that comes w/ the lunch entree isn't your typical white rice. It has a unique fluffy light flavored texture. Perhaps it is from the meat's juice?! I seriously get suckered in all the time devouring every last grain esp with the amazing tzakiki sauce :P Hence, a few times i had to refrain myself from having rice & substitute with extra salad. Carb control! - The pita is slightly crispy & delicious w/ the tzakiki sauce! - The house vinaigrette dressing is unique - never had one quite like Bravo Avo's! It has a hint of mustard-y taste but not overpowering at all. IMO it can get addicting Chicken a La Avo [5/5] - Phenomenal tasting chicken & veggies. Love the spice which gave it a real great kick Combo Bravo [5/5] - Slices of Gyros & Chicken A La Avo Lule Combo [5/5] - Comes w/ 1 Beef & 1 Chicken Lule Kabob. Perfect size & portion. - Nicely grilled & well balance of flavors. :: OVERALL :: I'm pleased with this hole-in-wall spot. A total local hidden gem for DELICIOUS Mediterranean/Greek food! I'll definitely be back to try out other menu items. Gotta support local small businesses! read more

Avo is the GOAT. Went here as a volleyball team at around 8 and they accommodated us like pros. There was 16 of us and Avo suggested that we eat family style. They brought out fresh pita and platters of salad first, then brought out platters of rice, chicken, and gyros. It was delicious! The whole staff was super nice and they had us in and out in an hour. Once again: Avo is the GOAT. *GOAT = greatest of all time (not an insult) read more

Best garlicky hummus ever. I never had a problem with this place. Just wish you guys extend your evening hours.

Incredible quality and taste. I was craving some kabob and so glad my husband found this place. I was literally dancing while eating because it's that good.
