"Every neighborhood should be lucky to have a Greek bar with stellar food like Avli Taverna. Hidden on a tree-lined street in Lincoln Park, chef/co-owner Louie Alexakis challenges customers with plates like perfectly textured moussaka with roasted lamb and more. It’s a spin-off of his suburban Winnetka restaurant, and bartenders are happy to show patrons how to properly drink ouzo. Alexakis continues to expand his burgeoning restaurant empire into a new location in River North and has another opening slated for April in Lakeshore East." - Naomi Waxman, Ashok Selvam
