"Avli has quickly made itself a household name for Chicagoans wanting a contemporary take on Greek food. Avli Taverna in Lincoln Park begot a larger location in River North. Now chef Louie Alexakis and sportscaster Lou Canellis are opening a third location near Millennium Park. Avli on the Park will have a unique menu, as they’ve hired a new chef, Nikolaos Kapernaros (Hyatt Regency Chicago and Grand Resort Lagonissi in Athens). This 13,000-square-foot restaurant should open in late April." - Ashok Selvam
