Il Posto Ristorante

This place gets a rare 5 in Stone Harbor, from me at least. It has a solid menu, solid bread, and some excellent pesto ravioli and gnocchi. Service was prompt and professional; food arrived in average time and was prepared well. Appetizers were of good quality but did feel a little too oily, so take note of that and ask for lighter preparations of oil if you can remember. Most of the entrees here should strike just about the right note though! Dessert was a weak note. Skip it, felt industrial and totally uninspired. The key lime pie could have been cheesecake dyed green. Very weird. Parking is easy and available, some even right up against the north wall of the restaurant. Love that. Chairs are pretty good, nothing special.

This is our favorite restaurant in Avalon. It's such a treat to enjoy this amazing chef and his creations. The servers are very friendly, attentive and helpful. The decor and atmosphere is pleasant. We usually start with either the octopus- Polpo alla Griglia or Calamari alla Griglia appetizer-both are fantastic. My husband's favorite is the Breaded Veal Chop -Cotoletta al Parmigiana. Our son's favorite is the Risotta al Gamberi. My favorite are the featured specials. We enjoyed a Flounder Special with Crabmeat in a lemon sauce during the summer of 2023 that we kept going back for. Dynamite! (I would not ding them on this but I preferred the old exterior signage-black with orange red lettering as opposed to the new blue signage that everyone else at the shore has-boring, ordinary and it

Everything was perfect. There were 8 of us and every single dish was superb. Fast service for such a busy restaurant. The food was beautiful and very delicious. The seafood were fresh. The tiramisu was perfect. Will definitely have to make this gem our regular stop every time we come down here.

In the famous words of Arnold Schwarzenegger, “I’ll be back”. Such a wonderful restaurant, located on the main drag of Avalon. Everything we ordered just hit the spot and was way more than we could ask for. We started out with some appetizers and salads, but they looked and were so good we forgot to take photos first! For our entrees we had chicken francese, rigatoni alla vodka, the pasta special (ricotta cavatelli with shrimp, scallops, crab, spinach and cherry tomatoes in a pesto cream sauce) and the tuna special (ahi tuna served with a cherry tom and crabmeat risotto drizzled with a chipotle aioli). The chipotle aioli was so flavorful and added the perfect amount of kick to the tuna. For dessert we went with the crème brûlée, a peanut butter tartufo, and a chocolate mouse cake. We spe

We regularly come to Il Posto and it never disappoints. We ordered the salad special (watermelon prosciutto arugula), rigatoni alla vodka, gnocchi Gorgonzola, chicken parm in blush sauce, Stacchetti pasta special. All were amazing. We sat outside on the deck. Fantastic experience!
