AV Grill and Wine Bar

3055 NE 163rd St
Sunny Isles Beach, FL 33160
305-945-7576
Website
This tidy 34-seat eatery sits in one of those generic strip malls that line the 163rd Street Causeway. Although a few grilled items can be detected on the abbreviated menu here, this isn’t a traditional grill that specializes in foods cooked over a fire-licked grate. Nor does AV qualify as much of a wine bar, though they do offer a limited list of mostly Spanish and South American choices. Among the tapas proffered are garlic mushrooms, garlic chicken, and garlic shrimp, the last in a pool of clarified butter and an ocean of chopped cloves. Main courses, described as old world/new world, are mostly old world: grilled steak or salmon with garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus; roasted half chicken with pan gravy; seafood paella for two. More contemporary touches include a plantain crusted mahi-mahi and a jerk-marinated pork tenderloin. This is a charming little establishment, but the cuisine isn’t accomplished enough to warrant much enthusiasm.
