What Bailey Rider doesn't like about Avelina - Denver:
3/7/23 The leek and potato soup was amazing, the mussels were amazing, the bison short ribs were AMAZING. Finally a restaurant that came through for Denver restaurant week. Delicious. I will definitely be coming here again sometime soon. The only thing I wouldn’t recommend was the sorbet, the texture was off and so was the flavor, it was not my cup of tea.6/10/23 update- came back here after restaurant week to order the same bison short ribs. They were completely over cooked, dry, and chewy. Not worth coming here for. This restaurant, which was at the top of my list, just fell to an average position. What Greg likes about Avelina - Denver:
Great place and a lovely evening! The service was impeccable, the food fantastic. Lots of great flavors, served beautifully. Only complaint is that the seating if you are just two is VERY close to the table next you ... we wound up chating w/the folks at the next table because it kind of felt like they were at our table lol. If you are looking for privacy you should probably ask for it when you make your reservation.... View all feedback.

Need a better white wine selection, food just kKkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Avelina offers a mixed bag of experiences, with some diners finding the food disappointing while others rave about it. Some highlight the fresh salads and burgers, while others find the food overpriced for its quality. The ambience and service are praised, especially for larger groups or special occasions. Some diners loved the cocktails, wine selection, and flexibility in ordering. Overall, while some visitors found Avelina to be the best restaurant they visited in Denver, others were left underwhelmed by the dining experience.
