Hectic and Unique but Flavorless
While the menu was vast and deep, much of the food lacked any real flavor. The tuna appetizer was good but bland, the shrimp was just ok. Dover sole was very very good and the highlight of the meal. Bronzino was good but again, short on flavor. Server was good but disappeared at times. I think if the food had more flavor, this would be much better. Very busy with a ton of tables so character lacking a bit as well.

We are 3 sisters looking for a quick bite and a little intimidated entering this restaurant with lots of business people going for lunch ...figured it was expensive and a little uncomfortable to take a table since we knew we would not order much. But our waiter, Petros, was super. He answered our questions and was fine with us ordering the Roasted Beet Salad to share and the Fried Calamari to share. The salad was the best roasted beet salad I ever ate. We appreciated being able to order just a little and take a break from walking around the city and figure out where we would go next. We so appreciate Petros for his patience and kindness to us. This restaurant specializes in fresh fish...I would come back here for dinner my next visit.

Our holiday group of 5 celebrated the New Year at Avra Midtown. It was lively, with a full house, and nice buzz, but we could converse and hear each other at our table nicely. The food is delicious, and everyone enjoyed their choices. The fish soup is especially good, and the Greek salad was something special. The fish dishes were fresh and excellent. The desserts were real treats, especially the olive oil sponge cake. The servers were efficient and helpful. I would strongly recommend Avra Midtown.
Be the first to ReplyAmazing service and food
I was hesitant to dine at such a fine establishment because it’s not common where I am from but our server Petros made us feel at home. The food was incredible. We had the 3 course meal. I was amazed at the care from all staff, not just our server. I work as a server back home so I hold others to the same standard I hold myself at. Petros went above and beyond with our table and others. He is very obviously a team player and such a people person. I can’t wait to come back.
Be the first to ReplyNice place, good food
For all the years, I have not discovered this place despite the fact that it is not far from my office in Midtown. Nice ambiance (nicely noisy) that is perfect for hanging out with friends. Taste of the food is on the light side, but still with nice flavor, so I find that very healthy.
Be the first to ReplyGreat Mediterranean lunch in midtown
Upbeat bustling midtown location has great food and great service. Large menu has something for everyone…assorted Greek and Mediterranean appetizers, salads, meat, seafood, pasta…you can’t go wrong. 3-course prix fixe menu is regular sized portions and a huge meal. Everything was very fresh and flavorful. We’ll definitely go back when we’re in the neighborhood. Wine available too.
Be the first to ReplyExcellent Greek Dinner
A super night, full and lively restaurant. We had the halloumi dish and calamari for appetisers follows by the large shrimp dish which was superb. A great night out.
Be the first to ReplyFresh bright food done exceptionally well
This was a surprise delight. We were tootling around midtown after some shopping and looking for a lunch spot and my wife suggested this since it was close by. We were seated quickly, the staff was exceptionally courteous and helpful in walking us through the choices on the menu. The Chilean sea bass kebabs were delectable. My dish (the lamb chops) were so well seasoned and cooked perfectly. My wife’s fish soup wasn’t done in a traditional cream base and it was bright, not fish, but tasted like a fresh sea side afternoon dish. Simply delish.
Be the first to ReplyNeed to be visited
I was proposed by a friend to visit the specific restaurant but from the entrance you understand the reason why is established already more than 20 years. At the entrance a very polite lady that speaks both Greek and English language try to find the best available for our company, even we haven’t book a table in advance.. From the time we sat on the table we received a special welcome felling from the waiters ( Giorgos and Costandinos) like they knew us for the last couple of years before.. The food was excellent on a very budget price, especially the Chicken Frites but the best part was the deserts .. all of them delicious on a big portion.. We will definitely visit again at our next visit to New York

I cannot imagine a better restaurant. From the service, to the atmosphere and naturally, the food, this was just an incredible experience
Be the first to ReplyAbsolutely Fabulous!!
A gentleman that owns an antique store near the hotel I was staying at recommend Avra. The food, atmosphere and service were all top notch. The only thing that didn't match their high standard is the bathroom......and I'll leave it at that! Highly recommend otherwise.
Be the first to ReplyBest Dinner of the Weekend
1271 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020 We happened upon this place on the way to another place. We were surprised as this place had only been open 3 weeks. What an amazing meal and experience. Chi was our waitress who was in training. We started with the octopus, which was amazing and big enough to share with 4 people. It was so tender and the flavor was unbelievable. Main dish was the fish by the pound:FAGRI the “king of the agean” – firm, tasty mediterranean white snapper. The manager came out to serve the fish and also plucked the cheek meat for us. It was a very flavorful light fish grilled to perfection. Finally, we were given 2 deserts for our anniversary. The Baklava and YIAOURTI ME MELI. First the Baklava was the best I've eaten, sorry to all by greek friends who think they make the best. I don't like Greek yogurt, but I couldn't stop eating it here. I have no idea why it was sooo good but I wanted to got back the next day and order it again. Avra is definitely on our list to return. Since NYC has so many places to eat we rarely go to the same spots over and over, but this is the exception.
Be the first to ReplyWonderful Sunday Brunch
What a delicious brunch! Located across from The Lexington Hotel. Even though it is in a busy part of the city, once inside, we felt we were in a Greek garden. We enjoyed the Chicken Frites with oregano fries, Mediterranean salad, and poached tomato with tzatziki and Fig pancakes and berries. Both were amazing. For dessert, we shared Olive Oil Cake with lemon ganache. We will get that again. Our waiter, Alex made us feel like his only guests. We returned later that evening for coffee and we were surprised by a plate of assorted cookies from him.
Be the first to ReplyGreat greek restaurant !!!!!
Had dinner twice in the last month in this restaurant because was twice in NY on business and both times stayed at the Intercontinental Barclay hotel, which 2 mins walk from the restaurant. Both times the experience has been consistently good. Great staff, friendly and very attentive, very well structured menu with a very good variety of options, food was very well served, full of flavour and very fresh. I tried different dishes, but can recommend the grilled calamari and Salmon. The fact that both times I ate here were very nice and warm evenings, allowed me to eat outside, on their open terrace. Very nice atmosphere. Inside, on the main salon can be a bit loud when full. Great restaurant, can recommend and will definitely return
Be the first to ReplyGreat Greek food, atmosphere and staff!
The night was rainy, but we walked into one of the warmest and most welcoming places we could imagine. Greek music, fish flown in from the Mediterranean, and staff who had all the charm and hospitality of Greece. My husband ordered the grilled langoustines and I had the cold lobster salad, which was a huge boiled lobster we shared, along with the hot pita, wonderful hummus and tapenade. We also ordered some grilled. vegetables. The whole place was loud with music and conversation, but perfect on a stormy night. Too much food to have desserts, but the waiter brought some sorbet to take back to the hotel. Our waiter was Greek, his boss was from Cyprus and they were both so happy to talk with us about our travels in Greece and Cyprus.

Gentlemen, do you want to score huge first date points? My suitor took me to Avra for our first date meal and my first thought was, “He knows what I’m worth.” Lovely ambience, stunning food and great company. A must repeat. By the way, the Baklava is lethal!
Be the first to ReplyAverage and expensive
Average food despite expensive prices. I was surprised by the lack of flavour and basic cuisine. The service is good, although it appears that they want customers in and out as soon as possible. The atmosphere is also not as relaxed as it should be with customers sitting quite close to each other, and the staff station too close to where I was sitting.
Be the first to ReplyAnother wonderful meal
It's been since before the Pandemic that we were here. This Greek restaurant is one of the best. The stuffed Calamari ($25.95) and Avra Chips ($26.95) are always great & we recommend them! The Arctic Char ($39.95) & Lavraki (Loup de Mer) @ $1.37/lab) were excellent. The Salmon was good ($39.95). The Fries ($14.50) were not as good as before. The tables are close, and if those are filled with noisey people it is very hard to hear those of us at our table. Service is excellent.
Be the first to ReplyAlmost Greek enough
Just around the corner from out Hotel Thai stylish Greek restaurant surpasses its Beverly Hills location in food quality . the LA location was more chic but the food lacked “Greek”
This one on the other hand , location is solid and typical dark , “ turn -your -flashlight -phones -on -to -read -the Menü “
Our choosing of saganaki and spanakopita delicious ( tho I have to say spanakopita lacked a couple more layers of Fillo as it was mostly spinach cheese and a thin crust of filo .. not the way Greeks make it) .. Neverthe less delicious
The red snapper lovely , simple clean with some lemon just right and the charming server convinced us to try the olive oil cake which I usually don’t eat but this was goooos
Definitely recommend for a perfect dinner date ( if you don’t mind loud mothers endulging their equally loud children ) lol that was our night . But we arrived jetlagged and needed a good meal . That was it !
Our “go to” NYC restaurant scoredvagain.
We always dine here on our first night of our regular visits to the city. It has become our favorite restaurant anywhere. Last night we were joined by a friend who was likewise impressed. We thought the food last night was especially good. My octopus carpaccio was the best carpaccio I’ve ever had and I frequently order any flavor of carpaccio that shows up on a menu. My wife and our guest had the tuna and they were both raving about it. My main - Arctic Char - was memorable. Our guest loved his Halibut and my wife - a light eater - had the crab cake starter as a main and was a happy camper. The service was excellent. We were in the back dining room for the first time and now prefer it over the front room. Agra is not cheap but you always at least get your moneys work. Thank you Agra, we will be back.
Be the first to ReplyExemplary Greek seafood
This is a very nice Greek seafood restaurant. They have a very nice menu with lots of traditional Greek appetizers and then some traditional Greek main courses or you can order fish by the pound. If you are so inclined you can go look at the fisj=h on ice which are on display in the dining room. They have a full bar and a wine list that is particularly strong in Greek wines, particularly white wines from Santorini. There is outdoor seating available but it was not in use on snowy night. We shared saganiki and stuffed calamari as appetizers. Both were outstanding. The table was also given a nice selection of olives and hummus, which was very good. My wife and son both had the swordfish (on the regular menu, not by the pound) which was perfectly cooked. I had the dorado from the fish display and it was excellent. Service is excellent as well. Overall an exemplary Greek seafood restaurant.
Be the first to ReplyWonderful set lunch
Went for set lunch ($32 before tax and tips) on Friday and it was so good I made a reservation to go again in a month’s time! The complimentary appetiser of bread and hummus, and olives were so good. Had the calamari for starter. It was cooked just right. Could taste the juicyness. The main course of branzino was a whole fish also cooked just right and not overly seasoned. Could taste the freshness of the fish! The dessert of baklava was to die for! Can’t wait to be back!

My wife & I were in NYC and looking for seafood for dinner. Our Central at 5th hotel concierge recommended this restaurant. It was all she recommended - and more.
Our server, Jose, was top notch in attending to every request from two Texans. We both had halibut with spanakorizo, both of which were unbelievable.
I'd highly recommend this place in the center of midtown.
Reminds me of the Greek Isles
We have eaten at Avra on many occasions and have never been disappointed. The service is always excellent. The waitstaff are friendly and helpful. I started with the octupus and it remined me of sitting at a beach restaurant in Mykonos and eating the same. It was superb. The fish is always fresh and perfectly prepared. It was late October but we sat outside - the outdoor heaters were working perfectly and we are very comfortable. Chocolate molten cake for desert with an extra bonus of two scoops of ice cream - perfect. Prices are reasonable as well. A must if you are dining in NYC.
Be the first to ReplyWorst restaurant experience during our trip to NYC.
The food was good but the service was terrible. They did not offer us indoor seating although we were fully vaccinated. Waiters rarely came to our table to ask us if we needed anything. The waiter was rude and did not accommodate our needs. We ordered several courses and one plate never came. Food was not worth the price. We will not go back and do not recommend.
