The GREEK FREAK has a Restaurant in Milwaukee!
Let me know what you guys think of this spot!
www.avli.us/about
Louie Alexakis, the managing partner of Avli-founded in 2009 in Winnetka, grew up in the hospitality industry working for his parents, who fun fact-owned a chain of hot dog stands in the Chicago Park District for over 50 years. After decades of travel and finding success at Avli Winnetka, Louie teamed up with partner and Chicago sportscaster Lou Canellis to bring contemporary Greek cuisine to Chicago with the opening of Avli Taverna in 2018.
Four years, three Chicago concepts, and one Milwaukee restaurant later, the group is excited to continue expanding their vision of contemporary Greek.

The best compliment I can give is when you first sat down it was a little tense with new people, you had never met but by the end of the meal everyone was talking and relaxed. You have a great sense of making everyone comfortable. This is why you have become successful. Keep up the great videos.

Great looking food... Loved the look of the young lady sitting next to you with the pretty eyes, when you mentioned the tip. You for sure leave an impression on folks wherever you go. Thanks for the video.

So loved the stories Ann was telling. Craigslist ad, Apollo, also loved how she said you make everyone so comfortable and that you make friends out of everyone you meet. That truly tells what kind of special person you are. I also loved the story of anyone that comes to your house to eat, never leaves hungry. Your face when you first put the prawn in your mouth was priceless, could not tell if you liked it until you said it was great. All of the food looked amazing. You are an amazing friend. They were all so no you are not paying. We need more people like you in this world and there would never be another hateful word or action to another. Keep spreading so much love.

Giannis made me a decent amount of money selling some of his rare rookie cards. Much love to Greek Freak and the cuisine looks phenomenal!

Midwestern Nice! When I worked in Milwaukee, I saw Giannis(which i didnt know was him) run past my car early in AM. He was late for his introductory conference, think some guy picked up him up down the road. But ya massive human being very skinny at the time . Gonna have to check this place out, always just went to Oakland Gyros
