Signature Omelet
Billy C.

Nice spot for a good brunch on the healthy side. The omelet came with avocado toast. It is counter service where you order and pay and your food is brought to you.

Buffalo Wrap, Cucumber Salad, Avocado Fries, and Watermelon/Cucumber Juice.
O'Brian B.

Exceptional Service and a Vibrant Atmosphere ​The highlight of the experience was undoubtedly the Grade A service; the staff is attentive and truly enhances the visit. As for the menu, the Avocado Fries are a must-order, though they are best enjoyed immediately to appreciate that perfect crunch.

Salmon Avocado Salad (GF,DF) and Chicken Wrap

We stopped by for lunch on a Saturday afternoon to meet our family as they have been here before and highly recommend. As expected, everything on the menu has avocado! this place is definitely casual as you walk in and place your order and then sit down and they bring it to you. There is indoor and outdoor seating. They don't serve soda but do have a couple tea options My only issue is the service when we went was super slow. It seemed as though they were understaffed for the amount of customers but our food took a long time. The appetizers came out with the food (fried avocado - would not order again but interesting to try) and then my nephews food was at least 15 minutes after everyone else (all he ordered was the pancakes) we had to go check on the food because it was taking so long. I will say the staff was friendly about it and also brought some fun coloring squares and stickers to the kids which was a fun bonus. Overall I enjoyed my food. The wrap was a little dry so next time I would add more sauce if I got it again.

Chicken panini and avocado colada
Maricel J.

My friends and I came here for lunch, and my feelings are a bit mixed. I live in the neighborhood, so we walked over from my place. I can't comment on their parking situation, but I believe they do have a small lot. The place is cozy, but it has a restaurant feel to it. The staff were warm and welcoming. We were greeted right away, and menus were available in a wall bin for us to grab and review before ordering at the counter. After placing your order, you can choose your seat, and your food will be brought to your table. One friend got the chicken wrap and avocado cheesecake and went to grab a table. Another ordered the chicken panini and avocado colada and was given a table number. I also ordered the chicken panini along with avocado egg rolls, but I wasn't given a table number. We didn't realize only one of us had a table number until she mentioned it, but thankfully, the cashier who took our orders brought the food directly to us. There was a small hiccup with my order--the family behind us got their food before mine. It wasn't a big issue since we were catching up, and the cashier was very apologetic when my meal finally arrived, which I appreciated. As for the food, my friends thought their sandwiches lacked flavor, and my panini didn't have any avocado. I realized something was missing, but didn't notice exactly what until I was almost done eating--partly because I was just enjoying spending time with my friends. My friends enjoyed their colada and cheesecake. We shared the egg rolls, which we also enjoyed; the ingredients were fresh. Although my sandwich didn't have avocados, it won't deter me from coming back and trying another menu item. I really like the creativity of incorporating avocados into appetizers, drinks, and desserts, and I'd love to try another menu item next time.

Falafel Wrap (V,DF)
Apryl M.

In June during my travels I had opportunity to try this quaint restaurant for lunch. I love avocados so when I realized that is the main ingredient for all their items on the menu I was interested. First of all, avocados are so good for you and the way it's prepared in the sandwich was superb. Also, that homemade avocado green dressing is so delicious you can drink it...put it on everything. My favorite was the avocado fries and the vegan falafel avocado wrap and well balanced with flavors. The chicken panini is also a good go-to on the menu for lunch. It's a big sandwich so I had leftovers. Also, the freshly made juices is a good perk for that healthy beverage. Next time I'm in town will definitely want to go try more menu items. Its' on a busy street but in quiet nice suburb. They also have a cute patio if you want to dine outdoors.

We know "pan con aguacate"! We grew up on this! They grow in our backyards! But the chef here has mastered them!  Tomato Basil Toast

The food is incredibly tasty. My son is a pancake connoisseur and he approves of them. Daughter tasted all kinds of avocado based food and she said: "That was the best whatever it was I've ever had" Unfortunately can't do it as often as we want to because things are a bit pricier but they are worth it.

VERY VERY GOOD, Hardy and Healthy Fish was wild caught and delicious Chicken sandwich was bomb service is great Cool ambience

Buddha bowl

The service and staff are amazing! Food is fresh and delicious. Vegan and gluten free options. The Buddha bowl is excellent with delicious falafel. Atmosphere is very nice. Large windows in second dining area. I have had the falafel wrap at a food truck from Avocado Theory too!

I ordered the bacon egg croissant, by what the picture looks like on the website it makes it look very fresh, but no my avocado came rotten. I took one bite and it tasted off, so I opened the croissant up, and all the avocado they put on it was old and blackish/brownish. I am pregnant so i was genuinely craving this meal thinking I was going to love it but I couldn't even eat the meal after that, the avocado was super bad and rotten, which is crazy because they are known for their fresh avocados. On top of that, I called in right when I placed the order to ask for extra avocados and the guy over the phone sounded rude and had an attitude. You would think that they would use fresh avocados and throw the bad ones out but no. They also probably thought I wouldn't see it since it was under everything in the croissant, but the minute I bite into it I could just taste the spoiled avocado coming from it. I also ordered from them a while ago and I ordered a kids grilled cheese, it was okay, the strawberries weren't very fresh and it also didn't come with the apple juice I was supposed to get with it. Overall the quality and service was not what I would have expected and hopefully they do something about it because it is not right.

Absolutely love Avocado Theory! It's such a cute place to visit and the quality of food is amazing! It's so creative how far you can use avocado in food and a great fat for our diets. I loved the quality and different options for everyone. The food is generous portions as well. Service was really great!

Love avocados! I try putting them on everything! When they become a little too soft, I make guacamole or smash them on some really good toast. Imagine my surprise to walk into a restaurant where EVERYTHING is avocado themed. Want fries with that, try the avocado fries. Thinking of philly cheesesteaks, try the avocado philly. In the mood for breakfast, try the avocado pancakes. Just want dessert, craving a little something sweet, try the avocado cheesecake. Or maybe you just want a refreshing drink, try an avocado smoothie. The menus are so vibrant and colorful that the food almost jumps up and kisses you. Can't wait to go back for MORE avocado themed goodies. They even sell avocado merch.

Honey garlic chicken.. More like Teriyaki..disappointed.  it tasted like it was made yesterday.

Im pleased to report that I received a refund for my meal that did not meet my satisfaction...

Too bad. I really liked this place. I found a wire in my food and it cut my mouth. They said they would make it right. Never heard from them again. Hate to leave someone a bad review. Check your food before you eat. Almost gave some to my baby.

My husband got the eggs over medium with potatoes & ham. With a pancake for his side dish. The French toast was amazing. So soft & thick. The portions are good sized. Friendly, fast service.

They said they didn't have it. Everything was pre-mixed. We ordered two mimosas. She came back and said yes we could just give us glasses. My wife and I shared a short stack of pancakes, which were nothing spectacular. They were a little hard we shared a omelette, which basically was OK nothing to brag about they come with potatoes I had asked for crispy potatoes. They brought us semi raw potatoes, and when I asked about redoing them, she said that's the best they can do because it has onions in it would not recommend this place at all

We were in the general area for a business appointment and were seeking a good steakhouse. We were…read morenot disappointed. Fortunately, it was a Tuesday and I had.reviewed the website to view the menu prior to selecting this restaurant. I noted that there was a Tuesday surf & turf special (8oz filet & 8 oz lobster tail for $56. It wasn't on either the regular menu or the specials list but it was offered. We ordered the oysters Rockafelller which were delicious and 2 surf and turf specials. Both lobster tails were good but my filet was ordered rare but came out medium rare. Our excellent waiter Steve said he would replace it and a new steak came out in about 3 minutes! I was very impressed with the speed of the replacement which was perfect. Nice ambiance, reasonably priced wine list. Excellent dessert list (although we were too full for dessert.). Our meals came with a house salad and large hot baked potato. Note that an 18% gratuity was added as well as a 3.5% credit card or debit card charge (annoying). But overall it was a great meal with great service.

We went on a Wednesday night. Made a reservation for 7 PM, but we were running late so we arrived…read moremore like 7:30 PM. Of course, they only hold your reservation for 20 minutes, so they indicated we would need to wait. Fortunately, the wait time was reasonable and the restaurant is lovely with an upscale ambiance. We were seated at a really nice booth and had a great server. The bread that they brought to the table with whipped butter was good. We ordered the chicken fettuccine Alfredo and a ribeye steak. Both entrees came with salads. I ordered my steak medium well, but it was prepared well done. It was also way too salty for my liking. I did not mention this to the server since we were already late and the restaurant closes at I think at 9 PM on weeknights. The pasta was really tasty and overall, I would say it was a positive experience. It is definitely a bit pricey though for Tinley Park (vs. a downtown steakhouse). We had two soft drinks, no desert and our meal totaled around $150 (they include 18% gratuity automatically). I might return, but honestly, not sure.
