The Avalon is a lovely mixed use space right off of exit 10 off highway 400. With over 20 dining options, the Avalon restaurants in Alpharetta draw the crowds.
The Avalon has many high end retail shops to satisfy the locals desires. The mixed use space also has apartments, corporate offices, hotels and even a one of the best movie theaters in Metro Atlanta.
The restaurants however, continue to draw the crowds.
The cost of dining at the Avalon can be astronomical if you are not careful. Lets take a look at the best Avalon restaurants in Alpharetta
Antico Pizza
If you are in the mood for pizza, you will be delighted by the quality of pizza at Antico. Before this popped up at the Avalon, locals would drive all the way downtown to taste this wonderful pizza.
After dinner, stay for some gelato or have a cappuccino, before rushing off to the movie theater right next door.
Expect to spend a little over $20 for a large pie.

District 3
If you are in the mood for warm, comforting bowl of Pho or a tasty Vietnamese dish, District 3 is your destination in the Avalon. Their tasty dishes are served in a upscale, yet casual restaurant.
Entree’s are usually less than $20 dollars making this an affordable night out in Avalon.

Rumi’s Kitchen
Rumi’s Kitchen is delicious Persian cuisine. The menu is primarily kabobs and rice dishes, but they are some of the best kabobs and rice I ever tasted. You will not be disappointed with the food.
Rumi’s kitchen can get expensive, like when I devoured the Lamb Rack for $45. There are many other dishes that fall more into a moderate priced entrée slightly over $20.
Other favorites are the hummus appetizer, and the rice is unbelievable.
Make reservations, as this place is very popular.

Colletta
After moving South from the Philadelphia area, we craved delicious Italian food here in metro Atlanta. We tried many restaurants, but none could even come close to the quality of Italian food we loved up North. That is, until Colletta opened a few years ago.
The menu of modern Italian food at Colletta is served in four courses:
- Antipasti
- Pizza
- Pasta
- Entree’s
If you are sharing a four course meal among 2 people, expect to spend about $100. If you add in some wine or drinks add that on top.

Bocado
While there is more to Bocado than just burgers, we usually visit this restaurant to get an incredible burger. This is not really a quick service burger spot, it is a full service restaurant.
The Avalon burger is pretty delicious and is one of the best burgers in Atlanta.
The restaurant has plenty of outdoor, covered seating.
Oak Steakhouse
The Oak Steakhouse is a traditional steakhouse with exemplary cuts of beef. The restaurants concept originates from the Oak Steakhouse in Charleston, SC. The steaks include certified Angus steaks, Master Purveyors Dry Aged Steaks, and even Wagyu. Accompany your steak with wine from an extensive wine list.

South City Kitchen
After South City Kitchens success in Midtown, Buckhead and Vinings, the Avalon is a great restaurant addition for residents in Alpharetta or visitors to the Avalon. This restaurant serves upscale southern dishes and it also has a very good brunch as well.

The restaurant has a huge U shaped bar and plenty of seating to enjoy sushi, making it a favorite destination to meet with friends, date night, or a snack while shopping in Avalon.
