Aviano's Italian Restaurant - Thomaston, Georgia

Ordered the Greek Chicken Alfredo and Gyro sandwich. The Greek Chicken Alfredo was very delicious and seasoned excellently The grilled chicken was moist and flavorful. The Gyro sandwich, also seasoned excellently and the tazhiki sauce was fresh and flavorful.

Courteous, genuinely friendly and professional staff.

The restaurant has a homely feel.

In my experience with restaurants, when you start to drift from the original recipes for cheaper less quality ingredients, they usually do not survive very long. Poor lettuce on the Greek chicken salad and the homemade Italian dressing must not be homemade anymore. It was orange and tasted like grease. Very disappointed and probably will not go back. (Old dressing on top compared to new dressing on bottom).

The atmosphere is subtle. The service is always great each time I visit! They’ve just started back offering the jumbo chicken wings. I would have preferred more lemon pepper seasoning, but I don’t complain because I know they’re busy getting orders out. If you’re in the area I would recommend visiting this location to give it a try!

Yo, what happened? It wasn't horrible. But I'm used to the original owners. Mr. Pete and Ms. Tula had such a great place here. The chairs feel like they could break easily and are uncomfortable. No booths anymore so you're not comfortable. It smelled musty walking in. The ceiling was dirty. Rust and dust on all the vents. The rest of the ceiling was filthy. Our food was bland. Spaghetti and chicken Parmesan were flavorless. The chicken in the souvlaki chicken wrap was lacking the flavor it used to have. The wings were decent. The waitress was a sweetheart. But that's about it. The new owners need to take lessons from the old owners and learn how to run a restaurant. My family decided today is our last time coming back here.

Well, the place is closing down according to their social media post. But I want to thank them for their service and for their food. The staff have always been courteous and kind. The food, for what it is, was always good and the atmosphere was laid back. I was a bit surprised to see the variety of their menu, as it wasn't just Italian, but also Greek and American food. Maybe that was one reason why they couldn't keep it going. It's expensivel to provide too many choices on the menu. Cinsolidating is always cheaper. But I appreciate the quality of restaurant they brought to Thomaston and I wish their staff all the best in their future endeavors and hope they all succeed at whatever they do in the future. Maybe there could be an Avianos 2 in the future or another concept by the owners. Thank you and Merry Christmas.

By far the best pizza I have had around here!! The manicotti and chicken parm are amazing. The service is always friendly and this has easily become a family favorite spot to eat. Don't forget dessert because this place has some tasty tiramisu too!

Good service. Restaurant was clean. The salad was fine. The house dressing was good. The garlic bread was good. However the Greek Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo was so over salted that I almost sent it back. It tasted fine otherwise. So, other than that it was a great visit!

This is a nice little family run restaurant with Italian and Greek options. I had the Grecian salad with Greek-Italian dressing and it was really good (shown in photo). My parents had lasagna and said it was delicious. Tzatziki was good with the toasted bread. The portions were large - all 3 of us took leftovers home. The young man that waited on us was very friendly and knowledgeable too. Prices were reasonable. I suggest giving Avianos in Thomaston a try!
