"To start, they served us chips and salsa. The salsa had a pico de gallo style with a surprisingly spicy kick—it was fantastic! The chips were also excellent; I'm not sure if they make them in-house, but I really enjoyed them. The service was quick and efficient throughout our meal. For an appetizer, we ordered calamari, which was perfectly crispy and not at all rubbery. It came with two delicious dips that complemented it well. I wanted to try both the carne asada and BBQ Mahi Mahi tacos, so they kindly brought me one of each instead of two of one kind. My wife did the same, opting for the Soy Salmon and BBQ Mahi Mahi. Our daughter chose the lemon shrimp tacos. The soy salmon was exceptional! The BBQ Mahi Mahi tacos were also very tasty, and the carne asada did not disappoint either. You really can’t go wrong with any of these choices. I didn’t try the shrimp tacos myself, but I heard they were fantastic. Overall, we had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed the food. We would definitely return!"

"We 're dumb. McDreamy and I brought his parents to Avellinos at 6pm on the Saturday of VTech graduation weekend. 'Who 'll be eating out?, we asked. Everyone will be at their grad parties, we replied to ourselves. Wrong! Everyone who knew Avellinos knew to make reservations. By some miracle of all miracles, though, the saint of a host, a man with more patience than anyone I 've every witnessed, managed to find us a table after only a thirty minute wait. Yay! Let me begin with the table service. Jeff, who apparently normally works as the bartender, was our waiter. He is witty, personable, attentive, and brought some additional levity and joy to our family dinner. He recommended a Jeff 's Old Fashion for McDreamy that received rave reviews when served. Our other drinks (a bottle of Chianti and a glass of Prosecco) and bread were served quickly. Our orders were taken promptly but without it feeling rushed. Jeff later recommended the in house made tiramisu; it was amazingly light and so delicious, if I may skip ahead. Now for the food. The food! Three of the four of us hail from Italian families. The fourth married into one five decades ago. So she 's an honorary Italian American. We are VERY picky when it comes to our food and we frankly chose Avellinos because we were starving and they served pizza, which is hard albeit not impossible to mess up. The menu arrived and the size and extent of it made me trepidatious. Could anything be good if they serve so much? It was all Italian American style fare, perhaps the answer is yes? Hint: the answer is definitely yes! I chose the sausage and peppers over pappardelle with a Caesar salad. McDreamy ordered his go to chicken parmigiana over spaghetti. The parents each ordered a 12 pizzas. Oh! We also asked to start the meal with a dish of antipasto. Words to describe our meal include delectable, authentic, fresh, perfectly seasoned, just like homemade, tasty, tasty, tasty, and I 'd like more please. Avellinos serves some of the best Italian American food that I 've ever had outside of family events. It 's hands down that simple. I 'm so sad that we didn 't find the restaurant during previous trips to Blacksburg. It would have most certainly been our go to place. Some words of wisdom, if I may make a reservation on busy university weekends. Otherwise, you may not get to experience this terrific restaurant. But absolutely try Avellinos. You won 't be disappointed."

"We visited this place just on a whim, I did a quick google search for food in Blacksburg. I saw there was 5 stars for the first 20-30 reviews and saw pictures of the food. So here we are! As we walked in we were greeted by a very nice gentleman who went to go make sure my party of 4 had room. We were then seated by the owner Dan who is absolutely a very nice and warm person who has a very personable yet formal tone to his voice. It is quiet even in a full room of people where I can hear my friends talk without needing to talk loud to each other. The atmosphere is very chic and homey, worthy of its name of a tavern. True to its roots. And the music they are playing just matches the atmosphere Now the most important review of all€¦. The food€¦ its is ridiculously delicious. Every last bite was wonderful. Me and my wife had the gobbler and even with such simple ingredients you can tell each thing has care. One guest had the hungry hokie and the other had chili. This place deserves a 10/10 all the way If you€™re looking for the epitome of southern Virginia charm with everything a good ol blue ridge mountain boy loves come here! It€™s worth it!"
