We had a good experience at Ava’s Pizzeria overall. The meatballs, warm olives, and meat lover’s pizza were all very good, and the drinks made for a great meal. Eric provided outstanding service….friendly, attentive, and full of great recommendations. That said, the dog situation was a real downside. Dogs are allowed inside, and we were seated next to a guest with a dog that was shedding heavily. There was dog hair visibly floating in the air, which was honestly pretty gross while eating. At one point, the dog was on her lap near the table while she was petting it, sending even more hair into the air. Later, another dog came in and the barking between them made things even more disruptive. The food and service are strong, but this took away from the experience. If you go, I’d strongly recommend being mindful of where you’re seated.

Yuuuummmmmmm!!!!!! We had such a great experience here. Shout out to Katie the bar tender :) The wine, pizza, and cheesecake were just extraordinary. Katie was very attentive and gave perfect recommendations. The only thing I will add is that at some point, a manager came over and reviewed a really long check list of to-do items. Frankly, it dampened the mood. I don’t think it’s appropriate to do it right by the patrons and also without acknowledging us.

We had an amazing lunch at Ava's this week! Got the topless blonde beer to start per their rec, was so good. Then had the chef's salad with peach and walnuts, the pizza with caramelized onions/basil/pepperoni, and their "award winning" fries. Everything was so freakin delicious and the service was fast and friendly. Can't wait to come back to St. Michaels just to have lunch here again.

Great place for lunch in St. Michael’s. The weather was beautiful and we were seated on the back patio. Our server was friendly. We ordered the season Fall Spritz, the meatball appetizer, and a margherita pizza. It was one of the best meatballs I’ve ever had and the pizza was so good!

WONDERFUL! Ava's is absolutely amazing! Since moving to the Eastern Shore several years ago we have been disappointed in ALL pizza out here!!!! Today that changed! Their Detroit style pizza is awesome & delicious!!!! Had their fresh & tasty meatball as well. Lorraine who is a sweet hostess was just delightful to chat with and it was nice to meet the owner as well. We will definitely return to Ava's!!!!! Oh, check it out…the ambiance of this establishment is so good!
