Avra Estiatorio

An upscale Greek seafood restaurant , serving fresh fish by the pound! We adore how the decor resembles that of a villa , along with the beautiful outdoor seating . Get the Arctic Char for your entre !

Avra has some good homemade classics, but the focus is on an extensive menu of fresh seafood that ranges from octopus to jumbo shrimp to swordfish and the unusual grilled sardines . Read more

I got the dish of shrimp , scallops , mussels and clams in tomato and orzo . It was excellent, but next time I would do a whole fish dish. The mountain greens as a side was incredible.

Amazing food. Try the lagostine and the fresh fish . The starters are fantastic. The hummus , olives , and bread are enough to fill your appetite, and it only gets better from there.

The fish was very fresh and delicious . I recommend the zucchini chips and the octopus . The staff was very helpful and got my food quickly. Best Greek food I have tasted in the city by far.

very good, the fish was super fresh and served perfectly. We were there last night (Thursday evening) Only problem, very noisy , and it was packed, not an empty table. Hard to have a conversation.

Oh my word. The fish was light, fresh, and cooked perfectly. They did a sub par job of de-boning it though. Get the mountain green side...perfection. Service wasn't stellar though.

Zucchini/eggplant chips & the octopus appe , great! Plaki seabass was amazing, swordfish also delightful. Baklava and walnut cake AMAZING! Baklava wasnt too sweet and was big on the pistachios , yum!

One of the finest Greek restaurants in NY! Crab cake is extraordinary, the Daurade is fabulous, anything you have will for sure be excellent!!!

Beautiful place, great food - must try the fresh fish . To start, try the octopus , tomato salad and a glass of Greek white wine .

Awesome fresh upscale Greek . All the fish is superb (especially the Char) but beware of market prices. Ask the price per lb. It's ok. Must try the zucchini chips . (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

I love this place but I don't eat seafood . The gigantes beans are great, the zucchini chips and the chicken entree .

Hortas (steamed wild greens) and a well prepared peice of fresh fish makes for a perfect light meal. I will definitely be coming back

Fish is very delicious - try fish of the day and octopus . Simply made which is perfect for this cuisine. Service is meh, esp the hostess

Great outdoor dining . I have only had lunch and dinner before. Today the brunch . Lovely food with one drink included. Jazz group set up later and it did not interfere with conversation or ambience.

Amazing Greek food is not an easy thing to come by, but from your first moments in Avra you will know you found a winner. The charcoal-grilled octopus was excellent, and the fig ice cream for dessert

#FabuLIST #DubiDO tasty authentic Greek. Get the Haloumi , Greek salad , and Bifteki Souvlaki . I'm sure everything here is good though! And loved the bread basket .

Great for business lunches . Start with fried calamari and spanakopita . I recommend the Arctic Char for entrée. Delicious!

Everything was very good, from service to food. The sea bass poached in tomato sauce really stood out!

Add ons to salads such as shrimp or chicken are billed as appetizers on the Dinner Menu . Lunch Menu is more salad add-on friendly !

Don't miss the eggplant and zucchini chips and the white fish ????

Tarama salata with pita a rare find. Great oysters . And don't miss truffle fries .

I love the food and the hospitality . Don't miss Chicken Friets plate

Great atmosphere. Rustic and modern all at once. Feels like home.

I like all types of food in the restaurant , it's great and delicious test

Grilled octopus starter was delicious! And the Greek salad is perfect.

Simple Greek food done right. Don't come here without trying the fresh fish by the pound. We recommend the Tsipoura, Lavraki, and Fagri.

Outstanding assortment of seafood and excellent wine list !

Enjoy fresh fish by the pound and order family style !

Best fresh fish nice big restaurant with good vibe and friendly staff

Octopus is great , fresh , perfect with a little salad ***

The salmon and calamari were perfection

Grilled octopus , crab cake , white Greek wine (Assyrtiko)

Delicious fish , great atmosphere, impeccable service

Greek food and American Chardonnay ! Octopus late on a Friday afternoon could become a ritual

Daily fresh fish is always amazing

Avra serves two varieties of loose leaf Greek mountain tea (on the dessert menu ).

Great fresh seafood , but pricey and confusing the way they break it down by pound.

Must have the eggplant and zucchini chips !

You can view the fish you wish to order on a frozen bed towards the back of the restaurant

Dips are great! Very authentic .

Very good food and service

Some of the BEST Greek food I've had. Wonderful selection of wines , as well .

Parmesan fries drizzled in truffle oil came straight from heaven

Oven baked Chilean sea bass rocks! ????

Great Whole Grilled Fish !
