    After an incredible first taste with the yelp elites, I knew i had to bring my family to Bravo Avo, and they did not disappoint. This second gisit confirmed that this spot is a true local gem. We dove into the Fire Feta Cheese, which had the perfect lick, served with warm pita bread. We had the seven hour roasted lamb and the lamb chops. Both dishes were outstanding, tender expertly seasoned, and packed with authentic flavor. We finished the night with their homemade baklava, which was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. It is clear that everything here is made with love, scratch cooking. What really sets this place a part is thw hospitality . The owner, Carmen came to the table to ensure the food was up to par.

    The best treat that you can have.  Cheese cake from heaven.

    Just a quick lunch between appointments. I ordered the gyro. Very generous portion. The meat was hot and fresh. The vegetables were crisp and plentiful. The pita was pillow soft and held up just enough. The restaurant is lovely inside and more formal for dinner. The owner Carmen stopped by my table with her husband. She is charming. The service is great and I can't wait to come back.

    My first time here, my husband has been here several times and wanted us to have dinner here. The owner served us, he was very nice and accommodating! We both ordered plates and had the hummus appetizer. Presentation was everything, you can tell they put their heart and soul into this restaurant. We got to sample the tzatziki and garlic sauce, all a must! Highly recommend, food was superior!

    Cute decor

    Best Mediterranean food around‼ So fresh and flavorful‼ Small; Quaint; Inviting. Large menu and European wines are a bonus. Everyone working the night we went was so nice and had great recommendations. This is our new favorite, local restaurant

    Came here on a Friday at 12:30. It took over 30 minutes to receive my take-out order. I am not that surprised because I saw a review on Yelp complaining about forgotten orders, and also someone complaining about prioritizing takeout orders. How about do the customer tickets in the same order received? We saw three people being seated and having their meals served, who came after us, in the 30+ minutes it took for them to get our to go order done. The food is fresh, but in no place in Orange County is it reasonable to wait 30 minutes for take out, at least not without a heads up (most people are on their lunch break and have to get back to work). We had simply ordered a salad with gyro meat, and kabobs - nothing fancy. I gave 2 stars because the food was good, but I will not be back.

    Kabob Combo
    Terrence Y.

    After seeing this spot a few times, finally made it in. The staff/owners were so friendly and welcoming. The night we went, there was a gentleman playing the violin and space made you feel like you were in Greece or some other Mediterranean country. We ordered the kabob combo and a lemon chicken pasta dish. Both were delicious and the pasta dish was something I've never had at a Mediterranean place. We'll be back now that we know it's great.

    Pretty decorations!!

The live music and evening belly dance performances created an elegant and vibrant atmosphere that made the night especially memorable. A special thank you to Esmeralda for her attentive and gracious service, and to Maddi for coordinating our large party so seamlessly and making everyone feel genuinely welcomed. The hospitality, ambiance, and overall experience were truly outstanding. We look forward to returning soon.

    Food was not on par with most Persian restaurants I'm used to…read more Seems they are trying to mix Persian with Mediterranean. The vegetables were so thinly sliced on the chicken kabab that they were almost non-existent. (We had one diabetic with us who could not eat the rice so we hoped the vegetables would be a good alternative.) The grilled tomatoes I love with kabab and rice were missing and the bread is thick pita. Kababs were a bit dry although the koobideh was pretty good. Tadig rice was super thick and they only offered two stews with it...the fesenjoon being good while the gehmeh pretty bad. No gourmet sabsi which is the most popular Persian stew. Kashke bademjoon was terrible. Overall very mediocre food. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and modern. We went for the belly dancing and she was great. Singers were good too. Service was also attentive. Disappointed in the food but all else was great!

    Food is good, service was okay, speed was disappointingly slow…read more I get that these places make their food to order so I expected a wait, but they have the word "express" in their business name so I had a false expectation. Needless to say I sat there waiting for my two to-go orders for what felt like an eternity. A lot of people flowed in after me and they were all just waiting, it was weird since it was empty when I walked in and then seeing 6 tables of people with no food. I thought I ordered the cheaper lunch special of chicken koobideh and beef koobideh, but he punched in the full portion instead. I didn't really mind as it just became extra food for dinner. But I feel like if someone is going in at the beginning of lunch time, they would be looking to order lunch menu stuff? I guess I can't expect people to do what I my logic would do. The two koobidehs is pretty much the same thing I order at any of these places because I prefer ground meat that's tender and juicy and this place did not disappoint. They were cooked to perfections with just a little crisp on the meats. Not much else to say since I only had a basic meal....meals

    We had it to go, so I can't speak much about the dine-in experience, but I will say the service…read morewasn't the friendliest. We ordered the combo beef and chicken plate, the beef gyro plate, and two falafel on the side. The falafel didn't look impressive, but they were surprisingly excellent--moist, flavorful, and honestly better than Sababa's. I'll definitely order six next time. The gyro plate was solid, not overly greasy or heavy, and the seasoning was just right. I wasn't a fan of the hummus, which had a bitter aftertaste, but my partner liked the tanginess, so that may come down to personal preference. On the combo plate, the chicken stood out: juicy and tender. The beef seemed to be a leaner cut and was a bit dry. I'd probably skip this particular beef kebab next time and try a different one. The saffron rice and grilled tomato were a nice complement. The plate also came with jumbo naan, served warm and smelling amazing, definitely a highlight.

Let's talk about the beef kebab plate. Flavorful doesn't even cover it. This thing had no business being this good at a fast casual price point. But wait, it gets better. It came with hummus AND a fresh salad AND a side of fresh baked in-house bread. I had to do a double take. You can also order the bread on its own as a standalone item, which is a genuinely unique touch. I cant name one other casual place that bakes their own bread. Show up Monday, Wednesday, or Friday and you can take advantage of their buy one get one 50% special too. I haven't tried their sandwiches yet but I highly reccommend the plates, and given how fresh everything was, I'm already planning my return visit!
