    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.

    Chicken panini and avocado colada

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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!

    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...

    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.

    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.

    Avocado Banana Pancakes

    Unfortunately I finally have to make a negative review. It seems ever since the new location has opened, every time I come to this location I leave unsatisfied. For example, my favorite thing and go-to item: the avocado fries. Multiple times they have come out cold/undercooked. And the sauce always seems to taste quite different each visit. Today it was spicy which was unexpected. I also ordered avocado toast plain; it had a lot of large brown spots and I also found 2 seeds hidden in the avocado. Thankfully I'm not allergic but that's seriously disappointing. Lastly, if a drink is that expensive, I feel it should come in a glass cup instead of a plastic bottle. Please make some improvements!! I love coming here and don't want that to change.

    Picky eater here . I ran across Avocado Theory on my out of Naperville and made a u-turn to check it out. Well worth the effort. I was told they opened on May 5. I tried the avocado toast sampler, the pancakes, and the strawberry refresher. The staff were extremely welcoming before I even walked in the door and the food was beyond delicious. They answered my questions regarding how the food was made and what it was made with. I truly appreciate the quality of service and food and will be back soon! Shoutout to Ashley, one of the co-owners for taking the time to speak to me.

Service is very good here as everyone knows exactly what they are doing and they are trained very well. The dining room is expansive and can seat many customers ... and that is a good thing since there is usually a line and the parking lot is full.

Food wise ... what can you say about eggs, or French toast, or pancakes that hasn't been said before? They bring off all these treats very well and they do it very fast. You won't be sitting around waiting for your meal. While just off the beaten path over here on Oak Park Avenue, do make a point of trying this place out. Very good all around.

It was very clean here, and welcoming service. Pretty busy too. Booths were roomy. A lot on the menu to choose from but she got the French Toast and Pancake special combo, and I got the omelet that had a lot of veggies in it. Food came out in a jiffy and wow - the portions here were great! We loved all of the food, and I really enjoyed my omelet - because it was huge, plenty of eggs too, and a very hearty breakfast. They make banana bread here and sell it by the loaf - well I had to get some. Took that puppy home and put it in the freezer. After a week or so we took it out - and it was excellent! Not as good as my mom's but it's still very good, and I highly recommend it. Not too sweet, large loaf, and I got enough banana flavor too. If I am ever back here in this area we are going to stop here for sure. Excellence customer service too!
