Last weekend we went to Avalon twice with my granny it’s her favorite restaurant. Well we have been there often. I can not remember the last time they changed their decor. Now it’s not bad its still neat and well kept, so it’s not that big of a deal. I just hate the color of the chairs but that me personally. Avalon I would say it similar to how Dennys once was they have a bar at the front where you can order your food or you can be seated somewhere.
The wait staff all treat granny very well and she has her favorites. I petty the wait safe who get her and don’t know her, because granny has forgotten a new waitstaff might not know what she wants and may not ask her because they do not know she don’t like the veggies of the day. The owners know my granny well, and they treat her well. I have to say I was a little annoyed with one waitress, when she said my uncle should be living on his own and not with mom. Clearly she doesn’t see my uncle is delayed and can’t take care of his self and had it not been for granny having him live with her, he’d be in a home. She clearly doesnt see my granny is not doing well mentally or physically so with out my uncle living their nor would she be able to be on her own.. She can’t drive and hell she having a hard time getting her self dress. So that kindof bug me but the waitress was a sweet heart to and I am sure she meant no harm. She likes my granny and uncle and treats them well..
The portions were huge, my goodness you could have at least 2 meals if not three meals from there just on left overs. The food was served nice and hot, and tasted good. It is best here as a couple to share a meal. Dad had french toast, and even his meal was nice side but more of a single serving. Granny had shrimp platter my uncle had beef I can’t remember.. Normally granny makes him share what she wants to have, but I told her he gets to order what he wants, when I am down here. and then they could eat the left overs later form her. I wonder if Avalon would be found in Atlanta job search. The second day we went i ordered a fruit platter with Fruit hubby order soup. The fruit platter was the best fruit platter I have had for a restaurant. The cottage cheese tasted a little off.
Overall the experience was okay.. They took good care of Granny and know my granny and took time to know me and my family…Granny used to take me and my uncle there when I lived with them. We used to go often, and they still go there often. I am glad they are still in business. I wonder what their large portions are doing to their budget.
