This is one of Kazimierz’s newer restaurants, at least of the "sit-down" variety, and they have brought a little haute and some refreshing creativity to the area’s young culinary scene. Their appealing aps, refreshing soups and huge salads are successfully convincing a lot of the street-food happy tourists and lazy locals roaming the area to change their ways. They have a huge outside terrace and an expansive inside dining room that is quite elegant in its classical minimalism. The rather diverse and wholly international menu also offers hearty meat, fish and poultry main courses that are intricate in their flavor, composition and presentation. They have one of the largest wine collections in the city as well so it’s no trouble finding something to perfectly complement your meal. The Wild Mushroom Parpadelle and Riesling is a highly recommended early evening combo. The only things that keep Avocado from being a true gourmet restaurant are the huge servings, the relatively low prices and the fact that you don’t feel pressured to order deep into the menu regardless the time of day or the size of your group. If you are indeed an avid fan of the avocado however, you may be in for a disappointment as it only turns up in 4 regular dishes (try the soup, seriously!) – although, to there credit, it is almost always “specialed”.
