AVA MediterrAegean New COCONUT GROVE Location
The culinary spirit of Miami has always been bold, vibrant, and full of life. Now, a new chapter unfolds as AVA MediterrAegean arrives in Coconut Grove, bringing with us the authentic essence of the Greek lifestyle. Here, the rhythm of the sea, the warmth of the sun, and the art of Greek dining converge to create a destination where food, design, and atmosphere live in harmony.
A Celebration of Place and Flavor
From the moment you step through the doors, you are transported to a world where simplicity and sophistication exist side by side. Every detail—soft lighting, curated textures, and natural elements—has been thoughtfully chosen to awaken the senses. Coconut Grove, with its lush greenery and coastal energy, becomes the perfect backdrop for this new expression of AVA MediterrAegean. We are not simply a restaurant; we are a place where stories are shared, flavors are discovered, and memories are made.
Culinary Philosophy
At AVA MediterrAegean, our devotion to authentic Greek flavors is at the heart of everything we do: fresh, seasonal, and soulful. We draw inspiration from the traditions of the Aegean and Cycladic islands, honoring recipes passed down through generations while embracing the creativity of today. Every dish we prepare is crafted with intention, from the golden olive oils that define our region to the fragrant herbs and spices that tell the story of our land, and the seafood that speaks of the sea itself. This culinary journey is guided by the spirit of "Parea"—a cherished Greek tradition of friends coming together to exchange stories and ideas, embracing life as a shared experience.
The Menu
Our menu is an invitation to explore. Greek Mezze platters, such as Hummus and The Greek Spreads (featuring Beetroot hummus, baba ganoush, and spicy pepper feta), create a canvas of colors and textures. Signature selections such as the 7oz Black Angus Filet Mignon and the 14oz Prime Creekstone Rib Eye balance refinement with approachability.
For those who crave something distinctive, our PASTA & RISOTTO section features the luxurious Lobster Pasta with bisque, heirloom baby tomato, and fresh basil. The Chef's Signature Truffle Pizza, layered with fiore di latte and kefalograviera cheese, is indulgence in its purest form.
Dinner highlights include the Mediterranean Seabass Carpaccio*, lifted by Meyer lemon, pickled ginger shoot, and chives, or the Australian Lamb Rack with pistachio zaatar vierge and charred lemon. For those drawn to comfort with sophistication, the Truffle Cream Spaghetti with kefalograviera, chives, and shaved black truffle remains a modern classic.
The Experience
AVA MediterrAegean in Coconut Grove is more than dining; we are an immersion. A coastal escape in the heart of Miami, where guests are invited to slow down, connect, and savor.

Whether gathering with friends, sharing a romantic evening, or discovering flavors for the first time, every visit is an opportunity to experience the joy of the table.
